When I first read the title for this episode, I automatically thought of the same-titled book by Joseph Conrad. Which then reminded me of the poem that T.S Elliot wrote based on the book entitled ‘The Wasteland.’
In that poem there is a certain passage, which I will henceforth quote.
“That corpse you planted last year in your garden,
Has it begun to sprout? Will it bloom this year?
Or has the sudden frost disturbed its bed?”
With these thoughts in mind, I’m pretty sure it will be a Snow/Evil Queen episode.
With references to perhaps – how Regina’s mother used magic to ensure Snow’s mothers death so that Regina might be placed favorably & therein marry Snow’s father. Because really, what mother doesn’t want the best for their child? ( Even if it means having to murder – which, well, Regina obviously inherited her malicious streak from her mother. )
