As far as August W. Booth is concerned, everyone has been wondering his fairy-tale identity (if he even has one). On the OUAT wiki site, I read that the story which was evident when August was binding Henry’s book (episode 13) is the Grimm fairy tale called The Golden Bird. http://onceuponatime.wikia.com/wiki/August_Booth
Summary http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Golden_Bird
Here is the full story: http://ouatv1.blogspot.com/2012/02/golden-bird-brothers-grimm.htmlCould August be the youngest brother/prince from the story? Could the golden apples mentioned in the story be the ones from Regina’s apple tree? Could the well mentioned in the story also be the wishing well?
OUAT creators had this to say: “The pages will actually tell the story of who the stranger is. ‘What we saw August [Eion Bailey] doing in that episode in putting those pages in the book is the first step in peeling back the onion to who this guy is and what his agenda in Storybrook is,’ Horowitz said. ‘That’s coming in the next run of episodes.'” http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/showtracker/2012/02/-once-upon-a-time-creators-talk-mad-hatter-and-more.html

Just read the story in my book.
Maybe they’ll use the story in connection with Prince James or with the big bad wolf (it’s a fox in the book, but they could change that). Would make an interesting plot twist. 🙂
I just read the story. And a few things stuck out to me specifically. 1. the golden feather that fell off of the golden bird.-this could have been used as a magical pen that scribed the book in the first place. 2. the fox which was that of the princess brother that had been cursed.–What if this man was one of the first curses that the EQ enacted, while practicing? Perhaps she could have been practicing on one of her childhood friends or maybe the man was a lover that she was supposed to wed. But her mother had a different plan for her(marrying Snows dad, the king) and turned this lover into a fox. [
Running away with my thoughts here, let me stop.
Sorry not sure if I did the spoiler thing correctly, so please forgive me and I hope I didnt spoil to much.
You have to mark the sentence you want hidden and then klick on the spoiler button, not the spoiler= one! 😉
I don’t think it is considered a spoiler if you are just giving out a theory. I do think that it makes sense that Regina’s mother has a plan for her daughter like marrying another king and uniting the kingdoms. I wonder if they are responsible for killing Snow’s mother or if Snow’s mother died in childbirth.
Apparently, Walt Disney said, “If you can dream it, you can do it,” which was alluded to in ep. 14, when Dreamy said, “I believe you can do anything you want, as long as you can dream it.” I don’t think August is Walt Disney, however, since it seems unlikely that a real-life person who died decades ago would be alive in the 21st century in which Emma was living before coming to SB.
