It would be interesting to see Jefferson (*sigh* though probably not Sebastian Stan) and Alice together in the flashbacks. Many have speculated that he and Alice were married. And maybe we’d finally learn how he lost her to his job.
Firstly: WAAAAHHHH, don’t leave, Sebastian! 😥
Secondly: Many have speculated that Alice was Jefferson’s wife. I’ve never personally subscribed to that theory, just because I’ve concocted the scenario in my head where the now Mad Hatter is having his famous never ending tea party to make up for the tea party he told Grace they’d have when he got back from the job for Regina, which he now can’t get back from. And I want Alice to come along to the tea party and remind him of Grace, because it’d be so deliciously angsty.
I’ll bet the story about how he lost his wife will be in the spinoff show, because they know it’d suck the Once watchers in, because it’s a story we all really wanna see. Wouldn’t put it past them to have his wife be a major character in that show, and not kill her off right away, instead show how happy Jefferson was, how he and his wife lived together, maybe even worked together, show the birth of Grace, and only after that, show how he lost her, and why he quit his job. Gotta admit, that would probably make me watch it, even though I’m not thrilled about the whole spinoff idea.
At any rate, I maintain that the end of two will be the entire town leaving for FTL because they have no choice, I think Greg or HER will have alerted the media and the news vans will start rolling in. It also makes me wonder with huge episodes like The Miller’s Daughter coming up, what else will his video phone capture? Perhaps Cora and Regina doing some SERIOUS magic? He needs more than just that video he shot in Manhattan. Once the SBers learn their lives and identities are in danger, they’ll have to leave.
I don’t have any hard and fast theories about the finale as of yet, but I’ve seen that idea pop up a couple of times. I’m not sold on it yet, just because I don’t believe that Greg is hanging around with the purpose of exposing them, I think he went there for his own personal reasons, and I think Her is in on that, so she wouldn’t let the video he sent get out there for public consumption. Of course, if someone happens to find it on her phone and they make it public, then exposure to the real world could still happen, and more outsiders could roll in. And maybe I’m completely wrong about Greg just being on a personal mission, and he does want to expose SB. We shall see, I suppose.
And who else knows realm jumping better than Jefferson. (But will they land in FTL, that’s another question. I think they’ll land in Neverland and S3 will focus on that realm).
I do love the idea of them accidentally landing somewhere other than FTL. Question is, how would they get there so soon? They’ve got the beanstalk cutting, but that won’t grow quick enough to give them beans by season’s end. Emma’s hat is still lying around somewhere, so I guess they could bring Jefferson back in if Emma remembers the hat and wants to see if they can get it working. I’d imagined that whenever they all leave SB, they’ll leave on Hook’s ship, which we know would work with a bean portal, but would it work with a hat portal? Or will another realm jumping option come to light before the finale?
