Okay, another “proof” is the skeleton keys. In the book, in Henry’s hands, opening MM door, opening the jail cell — crazy. Emma has to be wondering about that. To me that is probably the most unexplainable thing that has happened that connects to the book and FTL.
But I admit I would be hesitant to believe, but I am also the type person who would be trying to figure out the truth, and so just wouldn’t deny the possibility, adamantly, even if it was beyond reason. The skeleton keys would give me pause, and frankly I would have started trying them on every door in the building to verify that they work on anything. Then I would really be asking a lot of questions, especially since the key shape obviously doesn’t fit a modern day door.
I thought when August showed her his leg that would be the defining moment, but the fact that she couldn’t see it just blew me away. That was an awesome twist by the writers. She can’t even see the truth, because she refuses to believe in even the possibility.
slurpeez108 and Phee really appreciate your insights. I think I agree with you most on what you said.
I think my indignation and anger is not directed so much at August as it is Gepetto for being so selfish that he demanded his boy be saved over MM going with Emma. So short-sighted, but selfishness usually is.
Oh I know this one! This is that frog in boiling water thing! All these things come along gradually so things don’t seem really as off as they are so in the end it’s easier to dismiss.
