I don’t know if the writers are saving it, or its just more “who cares, audience already knows” stuff or cut for time. Either way, while I did love the Rumple/pan stuff, I felt like maybe they could have skipped the exposition somewhere to get in a line from Wendy about how Bae gave up everything for them.
Yeah, I hope they DO actually intend to show us that stuff at some point. Maybe they’re saving it for when Neal and Wendy are reunited with John and Michael? You’d think that that dock scene would be a perfect opportunity for a full reunion of Neal and his 3 “siblings” with Emma right there to see it, so I’ll be disappointed if it just gets brushed over again.
I also would have liked a line from Regina to Neal about how she’s glad for Henry’s sake he isn’t dead after all, or SOMETHING.
Guess we’re just supposed to assume that she’s not as anti sharing Henry with the rest of his family as she used to be, but you’re right, it would have been nice to get a line from her about Neal. She does look pretty pissed when Rumple walks off after saying he’s gonna put Henry back in Neal’s arms, but that look is probably more to do with her thinking he’s keeping something from her.
Incidentally, the name #FireThieves won for twitter, not my favorite but hey, at least it is a “hot” name anyway you slice it.
I’m not that keen on it, and I think it’s because it sounds too much like a mashup of two separate words, which means it sounds more like a ship name, rather than the name for a group of fans for a single character.
