Clip #4: loved Snow in mommy mode. Did anyone one else hear it in the way she said “Emma!” It was classic “I’m the mom and i know best so shut up.”

So did I- classic ‘mom’ mode tone 😉 lol

Yeah it is crazy how Ginnifer’s voice has changed. Like she doesn’t sound like Mary Margaret anymore. That has been the biggest change for me.

I think that’s 1/2 of what sell’s it.

[hjbau]

I totally agree. Her voice is what sells it to me that this is Snow now, not Mary Margaret. It is really well done.

Love seeing AdultSnow in a scene with Cora. Her reaction to her is such a perfect contrast to their interactions when Snow was a naive child. Can’t wait to see more!

So, what’s Cora doing in the pit, do we think? The only way she could be imprisoned is if she’s been somehow stripped of her powers. Or is she actually in charge of that whole settlement of people, and she’s down there purely to pose as a fellow prisoner to get info out of them?

I’m very impressed with the acting in just these few clips. They have the mother daughter dynamic well down.The daughter trying to prove she is tough enough to handle it, even though she is probably scared nearly out of her mind. The mother trying to encourage and yet instruct her daughter and keep her safe. This is going to be fun to watch the relationship develop. Superb actresses.

I think Cora is telling the truth. That they know her and locked her up because she is Regina’s mother. Though it may just be because she is a psychopath. In the promo they showed the safe haven after it had been attacked and destroyed. I always thought that was done by ogres, but now i sort of wonder if Cora escapes. Emma will probably touch her and then her magic will work again, sigh, and then after they leave to do whatever Emma, Snow, and Mulan are trying to do then she could escape. We will see. It may have just been ogres.

I really hope Emma doesn’t unknowingly give Cora back her magic, but it’s possible Cora never lost it, since she’s in FTL where magic has always existed (unless the curse affected magic there).

Perhaps the pit has the same anti-magic properties as the jail which held Rumpel in the pilot, which prevent Cora from using magic.

That’d be a very interesting twist!

Also, Cora seemed especially interested in how Emma and Snow White managed to return to the Enchanted Forest. It’s almost like Cora wants to go the opposite way back to SB. She probably has a huge grudge against Regina and Rumpel for what they did to her. 😕

I actually like this idea too- not that I like Cora one bit 😉 but it would be a good twist.
I’m not sure Cora was all that powerful without her book tbh, otherwise how would Regina have managed to have busted her ‘halting’? curse in We are both?

I too think she wants to get back to SB or where ever Snow & Emma came from- she was far to interested in that point for my liking 😉 I can see Cora coming into play as a major evil player- Rumps doesn’t like her, Regina doesn’t like her, so it makes sense (sadly 😉 ) that since Cora is someone even our own baddies dislike, she’ll eventually become our main/big villain.

[hjbau]

I really think that a main villain should be someone introduced in the beginning which leaves Rumpel, Regina or the Blue Fairy. At least in most good shows that is the case, in my opinion.

hopefully, she has been stripped of her power in some way. It would be weak if the writers pulled the “let’s put one of our own in the pit to get information” stunt in two shows in a row.

Agreed! It’s gonna be a real treat to watch this relationship evolve.

Hadn’t thought of that, but it’s a possibility.

That’s what I’m thinking, it seems that Cora wasted no time at all trying to find out how they got there, and I’m sure she’d love to go to where Regina and Rumple are to wreak some revenge on them.

I’m really curious as to how and when Cora found her way back to FTL. What state was she in when she returned? Did she storm into the place all powerful? If so, I could see her being in charge of this remnant of FTL folks. Even if she’s not their direct ruler, she could hold them to ransom in some way and as such be able to say, “I’m going to interrogate the prisoners,” and they’d let her do so without question.

Sitting here wondering what type of portal she could have used to get back, got me thinking about what portal Snow and Emma will use to get back. Wouldn’t it be fun if they went down the rabbit hole? Of course, we don’t know what the show’s version of Alice will be, and if she’ll be from our world, but if she was, maybe there’s some sort of rabbit hole network between worlds, including ours, and that’s where they’ll end up. Would be sort of fun, considering they got there via the Hatter’s hat, and will possibly have QoH, (if she does turn out to be Cora), trying to use them so she can get to the portal too. Oooo, there have been filming shots of the Rabbit Hole set in SB, haven’t there? With caution tape and whatnot? Wonder if that’s where they’ll pop back into town?
