I liked the episode for the differnet arcs that were explored, and I like that we finally got more exploration on Dr. Whale’s story. 🙂
I’m gonna get hate for this, but I hated Rumpelstiltskin in this episode. Normally I’m okay with him or I feel sorry for him or even love him, but this episode just really showed him to be horrible. Threatening to kill a family (including an 11 year old boy who doesn’t even know what happened, especially since he was supposed to like children in the first place) it just really distubred me.
I get that it might have just been a threat, but it still was disturbing, and quite frankly horrible to say that to the whole family, who hasn’t really done anything to him.
I felt really bad for Regina–I kept trying to root for her to turn her mother away.
