Age Inconsistencies

[AidenXJeffrey]

During the discussion, Erin mentioned there were inconsistencies with Robin’s age, but in-actuality, the inconsistencies are in Alice’s age, but first, Robin.  Robin was born in episode 5×08 Birth and Henry mentioned that he was 13 in episode 5×05 Dreamcatcher.  In episode 7×01 Hyperion Heights, Henry’s 18 when he leaves Storybrooke which would make Robin five when he leaves.  In 7×11 Secret Garden, Robin states that she’s 18 and when Zelena arrives in Enchanted Forest 2.0, Lucy has just been born and in 7×10 after Lucy’s 8th birthday, we first meet adult Robin and she states that she’s 25, about to be 26 as she was 18 when Lucy was born.

Now for Alice,  Alice is technically at Wish Realm character, but the Wish Realm was invented until the Evil Queen wished it into existence in episode 6×10 Wish You Were Here and Emma celebrated her birthday in the Wish Realm which would be October 18th.  I found this out because of the days 1×01 The Pilot and 1×02 The Thing You Love Most take place.  The Pilot takes place in two days, while The Thing You Love Most takes place in one and at the end of that episode, Regina states that it’s a Thursday putting Emma’s birthday on a Tuesday and the Pilot on a Tuesday and Wednesday as Emma states at the end of the Pilot to Regina that yesterday was her birthday and the show premiered on the 23rd of October back in 2011, so that’s how I deducted her REAL birthday based on what they gave us in those first two episodes and if that truly was her birthday in the Wish Realm, then that would make her 31 when the Wish Realm was created.  Now, how does this explain Alice’s age?  Back in episode 7×07 Eloise Gardener, we see what happened when the curse wasn’t cast and how the Evil Queen sent Nook to a distant realm for a powerful magic where he meets Gothel, glamored as Rapunzel 2.0, they have their tryst and then the next morning, Alice is born.  Now if this was only a couple of days AFTER the Evil Queen was defeated and AFTER Emma was born then that would have made Alice 31 when the Wish Realm was created back in 6×10, which would make her the same exact age as Emma, only a few days younger, so in 7×01, that would have made her 36, which would mean she and Robin are actually almost 31 years apart as Robin’s birthday falls in late July and Alice’s late October, a few days after Emma’s birthday.  So when Robin was 18, Alice was, or at least should be 48-49 and when the curse was cast, Alice is or should be 56-57.  I wish that this cleared things up but of course this makes things more complicated as it doesn’t line up with Alice’s physical appearance, but according to what we have seen and what they have given us, this is how Alice’s age lines up and how we have inconsistencies with her.

Have a good one, Oncers!

P.S. Share this with Erin as she isn’t on the forums lol 😛
