This was the first time this duo wrote together, but they’ve both written episodes for Once before, and good ones too!
Agreed, + don’t the headwriters generally look over the scripts and make sure that nothing contradicts something they want to do / tell them to add in something about ___ without necessarily telling them why?
I feel like *somebody* along the way would have been like um…but didn’t you say that this happens? So it seems VERY odd to me.
It reminds me of something I saw about Silver Linings Playbook (no spoilers), but certain numbers had to be = to a specific number and one of the actresses on the sideline of that scene kept doing the math in her head and it wasn’t adding up to what they wanted it to be and she was right. Surely SOMEBODY would think something was off or at least question what that means down the line…
As for Jefferson, perhaps he knows of the existence of them but can’t get there via his hat. The way he travels is only within the hat but we’ve seen other ways to get places so he may have vast knowledge on this and he might know other portal jumpers that use different means of travelling etc.
Agreed Gypsy, it is frustrating! I like the idea of needing a constant because they do kinda have to travel around via stories they can tell so that would make sense. Then we’re back to the pesky couple hundred years line because I always figured from his birthdate-now, it would seem to Emma like a couple hundred years and even more than that to Bae because NL time is different but if he landed late 1800s / early 1900s (I’ve seen them SAY 19th century which would be 1800s but uh..why does it LOOK like the early 1900s? which also lines up with the PP story…and in that case HOW could he possibly be supposed to be a couple hundred years old if it’s just a 100?)
I’m giving myself a headache :S
