Something I just thought of: why doesn’t Henry recognize Rogers as looking exactly like Captain Hook from his book. There is definitely at least one picture of him in there (the Last Supper scene which we saw Lucy looking at the end of last season).
to be fair, the people in storybrooke never cared there were pictures of them in Henry’s book. Maybe the curse makes them incapable of recognizing the illustrations with the real world people
The pictures in Henry’s book didn’t have faces. Snow and Charming never had faces in there. I think that’s why Henry had trouble deciphering who everyone was. We have clearly seen the last supper picture in the book and Rogers and Henry had a very specific conversation about Emma’s picture, so it just seems odd.
Some have faces and others have kinda plain looking faces without much detail. I’m honestly guessing (like a lot of the things) the writers didn’t think about it.
Cinderella, Jefferson, Snow, Hansel and gretel, and gepetto all have pretty spot on depictions in some of the images shown in Henry’s book tho. The thing is they aren’t very consistent either. Some are fairly accurate and others look like cartoons

October 18, 2017 at 4:56 am #343448PheeParticipantWho would’ve paid $500 dollars to sit through that? If that’s the best Lady Tremaine can do, she really is the weakest villain yet.
Tremaine’s not the one who set the price, she said her assistant did. Just another clue that Drizella is the one who cast the Curse IMO. Tremain is totally cursed in HH, and Drizella is having too much fun pulling her mother’s strings, as some payback for how she’d controlled her all her life. Drizella set the price $50 above what Jacinda could have afforded because she hates Cinderella, and cast the curse to break up her happy little family, so setting that price would mean forcing the family apart for that particular event where Jacinda really wanted to see her kid.

Oooooh. Good theory! I wonder who Drizella would have sacrificed, though?

If you’re right, I’ll love the direction of the story. Great Theory!

Probably Anastasia? Morbidly poetic to kill your sister in order to get revenge on your mother.

I was so ready to be 100% “meh” about the show again this season, but instead have ended up actively speculating about stuff for the first time in several seasons. Go figure! LOL As soon as it was Drizella who came and took the book off Lucy and told Rogers to destroy it, I was convinced that she’s actually the one who cast the Curse.
Like, sure Tremaine is a…very not nice lady…but I dunno that I see her wanting to give up the life she has in EF2.0. Sure she wants Henry and/or Cinderella dead, but she really just wants to be rid of them, so I feel like she wouldn’t be at all inspired to go to the trouble of orchestrating this Curse to resolve the situation.
Drizella though, I can believe that she’d have the motivation, both to tear Cinderella’s happy life apart, and to exert some power over her mother, really turn the tables on her. This Curse makes sense as Drizella’s revenge over both the people she hates the most.
Also, I never watched Reign, but Adelaide Kane was the lead in that as Mary Queen of Scots, and from what I know of Mary Queen of Scots, I’m guessing it was a pretty meaty role. So would OUAT really snag an actress like that to just play a subservient daughter, when she’s probably got the acting chops to be able to play a conniving big bad?

I watched the first two seasons and yeah, I’d say her role was pretty meaty and without a doubt Adelaide was the best part of the often times too soapy teen drama. Actually, when it was announced that she was joining S7 I was a little surprised that her first role post Reign (which ended earlier this year) was something so seemingly minor. Critics were harsh on the show but she was always getting positive reviews.
Hmm. I’m liking your theory more and more.

I wonder if Drizella loved the Prince and believes Cinderella killed him. Drizella doesn’t know that her mother actually killed the prince, and that’s what’s driving her revenge.
October 18, 2017 at 1:43 pm #343455hjbauParticipantWhy would Drizella do the curse and then be her mother’s assistant? Why wouldn’t she do like Regina did and make her mother meek and have her mother serve her? I don’t think that makes sense. I also don’t think the curse is going to be the same potion, so no one was sacrificed to do this curse.
I think the fact that the family structure is almost completely intact is important to what is going on here. Tremaine seems to know something about Henry because she is trying to get rid of him all the time. There is something to that. It is like everyone is cursed, but their personalities and motivations are still all exactly the same in the real world as they were in the Enchanted Forest 2. There should be some reason for that, but who knows with these writers.
