    Yeah, I agree it would be odd not to get a full episode for Hades.  It just seems so late in the game for it.  Like are we really going to have this new character going around the whole half season, and we only get ot see into his motivations until like the penultimate episode?  What annoyed me a lot about season 3B was that we never knew Zelena’s endgame until near the end and I hope that’s not what is happening here.  It makes me think whatever Hades does or is trying to do, with directly impact the finale and possibly where they go for season 6.

    Fun fact about firebirds and Russian mythology — there’s a connection between several versions of the fairytale with Koschei the Deathless which is a sort of a wizardly/immortal male figure who, to quote Wikipedia, “is an archetypal male antagonist, described mainly as abducting the hero’s wife.” Also, notoriously hard to kill. Anyway, I’m overthinking this.

    Wow! This excites me. I know someone on this show who “stole” two heros’ wives 🙂

    LOL! I haven’t even thought of that. I was still at Hades and Persephone (though he didn’t technically ‘steal’ Persephone, just tricked her with his offer of a healthy snack)…

    Honestly, no way they’ll go there, but if they did, Koschei is such a delightful villain. 🙂 Who doesn’t like an old greedy bone-sack necromancer who keeps his life squirreled away in a needle kept inside an egg, inside a duck, inside a hare, inside a goose, inside a locked chest, on top of a tree on a desert island?

    I was half-way hoping they’d get into Slavic folklore when they introduced Chernobog. Neil Gaiman did it, why can’t OUAT, right?

    I want you to re-read this fragment and tell me what’s wrong. 😉

    Let’s say it was offered in the spirit of a Zen koan, as a meditation on the ontological emptiness of #hope. 😉

    I don’t think that jacket looks at all like Emma’s jacket. I am still not understanding why people are thinking the clothes that Emma is wearing in the scene with the Bug outside the store are Underworld clothes. I may have missed some pictures somewhere. I do think that at least some of these are young Emma flashbacks. I think the idea this was a bail bounds person is a good idea, but i think that none of these theories have any basis in the spoilers. It is just as likely this is just some random person that Emma is chasing for some reason. Who knows at this point.

    Me either. Emma went to the Underworld in jeans, white sweater, and her red jacket

    The clothes she’s wearing in that one scene looks looks like a blue hoodie and then she changes to black coat/outfit for the night scene. I think it’s pretty clearly a flashback

    Facts:

    1st: In the UW, Emma has been using until 515 the red jacket, after that she been wearing a long Black coat;

    2nd: she been wearing a beenie in some episodes, in others she doesnt have it, and she can also use her hair in ponytail.

    3rd: I saw people online saying that the blue hoodie, that Henry has one similar and i remenber him using one in some pic i saw in SB here it is Henry with a blue hoodie: https://www.instagram.com/p/9NLjc9GeLO/?taken-by=joanametrass

    Now the pics, if you take The red jacket and the Blue hoodie what do you have? The same boots( that she only started wearing this season, i believe), the same jeans and the same white sweater.

    UW picture:

    The other picture:

    so if you take the Hoodie and jacket what do u have? the same clothes.

    The clothes she’s wearing in that one scene looks looks like a blue hoodie and then she changes to black coat/outfit for the night scene. I think it’s pretty clearly a flashback

    Dont forget that they film out of order, the night scenes is probably i admit a flashback, but i highly doubt that they have 2 flashbacks at same time in diferent periods plus present time where the character has the same clothes, except for the jacket, so yeah, i say that the day clothes are present time and the night are flashback, since people saw her buy appears a red jacket in the morning, i would say she lost hers bwt 515 and 519 and she went to buy a new one, or is a decoy, like i said Hades wants someone that maybe is in World without magic and he makes a deal with emma and he lets her go there to bring this person to uW, since those pics show USA Today, especially bc she has a file in her hands, and she looks like she is looking for someone, that would fit into @nevermore theory that she is trying to find Hades wife, only to find maybe that was the person she meet in the past, bc she always meets people that were related to that world, probably to make Neal look like less important, since she had so many people crossing her path, that them meeting was just coincidence or another idea, is that like Archie is a cricket in EF, this person Emma meets in this world was a phoenix in EF, or in hades world, and is the key to destroy Hades.
