Yes, I love all the spoilers I can get – though I want to be surprised and there-in lies my conundrum. Thanks for sharing; it helps to know I’m not alone in this. 🙂
I also love that “grandpa” line; that Henry is such a little Charmer-in-the-making. Also, perhaps the main character to ask about Dr. Whale will be Emma, since she’s not familiar at all with these fairy-tale counterparts.
Am I the only one who doesn’t understand the reference to Lou Reed’s Charley’s Girl – like at all?
With you totally! …….. No Idea!
Yes, I didn’t get that either. I guess it’s either a hint that the episode opens at Coney Island or ends there since that song is from Lou Reed’s Coney Island Baby album. It could be where Bae is in our world whenever the events happen in “Broken”.
The Cyclone is probably Coney Island’s most famous ride, so if it doesn’t refer to where Bae is, perhaps it’s a reference to a cyclone happening.
Or the other theory I have is that Bae’s and Emma’s relationship was like the one in Charley’s Girl, but it’s too early for a flashback even if Michael Raymond-James is Bae.
And why in the world would they keep using their Storybrooke names. I can think of no reason where that would make sense.
It doesn’t make sense to me either except that they think the audience is stupid, which yeah unfortunately, there might be viewers out there who would be confused as to why Leroy is going by Grumpy in Storybrooke now.
I know I read people defending the idea by saying that they’ve lived those lives for 28 years, so they’ve gotten used to those names. However, unless I was an ally of Regina’s, there’s no way I’d still use the name that came from the Curse that she enacted.
