HEART OF DARKNESS…. Anyway, probably the most nonsensical thing about this episode was Merlin’s “I can’t stop Vortigan cause killing would turn me dark”. There’s probably A MILLION other ways he could stop him, why are the only options to kill or do nothing?
I agree with you VORTIGAN could have been put into suspended animation so he could not harm anyone else. He could be sent into a jail cell… there were many things Merlin could do besides kill VORTIGAN. SOMETIMES the writers are not very creative. I think wasting our time with BRAVE they could have found alternatives to their stand by MAGIC MC GUFFINS or VIOLENCE as a answer to every problem. sOLUTIONS in ONCE are getting kind of standardized & boring.

+ Baby Mickey!
+ My reaction to Merlin’s buddy: He chose…poorly.
+ Emma did not succumb to the Darkness! Yay!
+ Gwen has misgivings about Artie’s plan. See below.Didn’t Like
– No Zoso or Gorgon at the end? Gorgon would have been easy (CG bandersnatch), and for Zoso, they could have used archive footage (“Choose your paaaaaaaath.”) if they couldn’t get Brad Dourif.
– As much as I love the color green, inconsistent DO makeup. Both Zoso and Rumpel had gold skin (well, Rumpel was supposed to; he often had inconsistent makeup himself). Nimue was green. Emma is chalk-white.
– Vortigan as red herring was as obvious as Nimue being DO#1.
– No Henry; just a mention.
– Stop trying to be your stepson, Captain Guyliner!
– Was Mickey wearing a hoodie?
– Uh oh. Emma took the sword.
– That timeline was all over the place. Have fun, Keb.Thoughts
* We may have an explanation as to why Agrabah is in Fantasyland, instead of its own world. Could the hieroglyphic door be Fantasyland’s? Does Fantasyland have more than one door?
* Holy Grail possibly connected to the Well of Wonders? The Well does house the Greek goddess of the night, who also hates sharing her water. I personally have always theorized she could have made the Jabberwock into “a monster.” We do know she makes genies, after all.
* Were Merlin and his buddy escaping from slavery? If so, who was their master?
* Is Merlin dead? Or was he made to say that using the sword?
* Is it just me or did Mickey somewhat resemble a young Robbie Kay? Hmm…
* Has Merlin cured Gwen? Is she now a spy (à la Quentin Lance)?
* Someone who can wield both Light and Dark (bring balance to the Force?) – Riku?Was Mickey wearing a hoodie?
No, he’s wearing Arthur famous red robes
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"WHY did Nimue not melt into dust when she drank from the grail? The man that was with MERLIN in the beginning of the episode .. melted into dust when he drank from the grail and I presumed it was because he had an impure heart. I think Nimue had a dark impure heart as she was consumed with vengeance and revenge. She should have melted away into nothing when she picked up and drank from the cup.

Yes she should have. So either:
1) the gods didn’t care?
2) she didn’t have an impure heart?
3) PLOT. Shiny shiny PLOT

You only need permission touch the cup, not drink from it (Everybody get straws!)?

Did she have permission to touch the cup?! Did she pray?!
*I need to stop trying to logic this* We know the answer is PLOT. Shiny shiny PLOT
