Pinocchio’s story isn’t over just yet. We still have to see how magic affects him being a puppet and whether he’ll turn into a real man again. Also, we have yet to see Geppetto recognize August as his adult son. There’s also his connection with Emma from childhood, and there are bound to be more flashbacks about Emma, with possible room for Pinocchio. Plus, there remains the unanswered question of who Dr. Whale’s fairy-tale counterpart is. If he is Monstro, then that is a clear tie-in to the Pinocchio fairytale. Finally, Eion Bailey hinted in May that he and the EPs had been discussing ways to incorporate August’s character into a season 2 story arch.
