    *sigh* doesn’t look like Belle or Will or Rumple will get much time this ep. And honestly I’m not looking forward to Snowing turning morally gray, or yet another plot about their angst. I love them but I like them a lot better when they’re finding each other or being good grandparents to Henry.

    I agree. I think they are trying to make Snowing more interesting by showing this “darker” side of them but ehhh. Oh A&E, when will you learn that its possible for us to like characters who are not and were never villains.
    Before you know it, Belle will actually turn out to be the one who started the ogre wars.

    Belle is the Duke.

    When a travelling peddler directs them to visit a kindly old hermit, Snow and Charming are presented with a choice that could secure their child’s goodness, but at a price that will haunt them for years to come

    This actually gives me a shred of hope (*twitch*) that this Author stuff won’t end up being as nonsensical as I’d feared. If he just offers people options but the final choices and consequences (ie: the actual story) relies on the individual, that’s something I’m OK with, because it’s not some all powerful writer deciding people’s fates for them, which is what the characters seem dumb enough to believe he is.

    Think they said he’d have a three ep arc? So don’t get too attached, (I’m gonna be sad to have him disappear again).

    Actually, they didn’t specify how many episodes he would be in:

    What if the peddler is the Sorcerer?

    So, we all pretty much realize that Lily is Mal’s long lost child. Well, I was just pointed out how the writers might have picked the name “Lily” in relation to Mal in the first place. They might have got the idea from the Song of Solomon 2 from the Bible.

    Like a lily among the thorns,
    so is my darling among the maidens.

    This would tie back to the connection between Mal and thorns in the Sleeping Beauty lore.
