Favorite Moments
First, I think that MRJ and Jennifer Morrison and Robert Carlyle deserve praise. Their scenes were the best in the whole episode. 😀
Emma and Neal having their face-to-face talk. I am a bit upset that Neal is not that guilt-ridden about what he had done to her, but I do like how Emma had a bit of a chance to let out some of her pain and frustration.
Rumpelstiltskin injuring his own leg–I sorta figured he would soon find a way to leave, but it was still heartbreaking to see him have to do the deed.
Snow White and Prince Charming talking about their family–it was cute and funny and it actually eased the tension a bit in the episode.
The whole family reunion–Neal seeing Henry, Henry learning Emma lied, Rumpelstiltskin realizing who Henry really is, Emma having to tell she lied, and Henry hurt by it all.
I really loved Neal telling it straight–his father abandoned him in a world alone, with no one. And what was even worse was that his father still didn’t learn his lesson–he actually talked again about magic (loved how exaserated Neal looked) and how he could turn the clock back until his son is fourteen. Neal was right–his father still didn’t learn his lesson. He was still using magic for everything.

Greg spying. Seriously, why is he so interested? I get that he was freaked out about it, but it just seems forced.
Regina pretending to be nice to Belle and then knocking her out cold and then checking her purse with magic. She really couldn’t bother to use her hands. It was reckless and dumb.
Seeing Regina all happy with her mom. She had been so firm in wanting her mother to not come to Storybrooke. She had worked with Rumpelstiltskin. She knew her mother framed her. She knew her mother wanted her broken, and yet she still works with her.
Also, I didn’t really care so much for Rumpelstiltskin’s flashbacks. Some were good, but some didn’t really add much other than what we already know.
