“Now I am pondering the connection between the two of them. One thought is that Jefferson could possibly be the Wizard of Oz and if Neal is Baelfire maybe he spent some time in the Land of Oz???”
I think THE DOCTOR might be a “tip of the hat” to Whale/Frankenstein being the Wizard. But that remains to be seen.
I very much agree with Neal/Baelfire being able to jump between lands. How exactly, we have not yet been told. If young Baelfire, after being sucked into the vortex, ended up in a “Land Without Magic, ” it could mean present day real world or perhaps another world without magic (Mulan’s? Whale/Frankenstein’s?).
If Baelfire ends up being Peter Pan, logic says that there will have to be some way for him to travel freely at some point from the first “yet to be determined Land Without Magic” to Neverland to modern-day NYC. This freedom of passage thus implies that travel to Oz is no exception.
WEIRD THEORY-I think there might also be something to Neal’s story of stealing the watches from the drunk jewelry store manager. Neal implies in dialogue that there is something “off”/old-fashioned about the way his WANTED poster appears in the post office.
1.We have learned that Jefferson is stuck in modern day land (HAT TRICK).
2. Jefferson’s transit through modern day land is not affected in the way that other Storybrooke characters are. (Is there anything in the ploltline I have missed that would keep him in modern-day Storybrooke?)
3. Thus, is it possible somehow that Neal/Baelfire worked as a janitor for Jefferson (the drunk jewelry store manager) and stole the watches from him?
