Barbara Barnett’s spoilers

[eastofthesun]

Is it sunday yet!!! 😆 I´m SO excited for this episode, I have a feeling its going to be EPIC one of the best of the season!!!! I’m like dying with excitement already by reading the spoilers..THANKS! 😀

I’m glad that, according to Barbara, we finally find out what August had in his box when he met Neal! She also said that it is NOT a picture of the dagger, nor is it that drawing of Bae.

There’s so much spoilery goodness in this stuff, my brain just kinda melted. Gonna need a while to wrap my head around it all. 😆

Hm, if Rumple’s father really is in this episode, I have a guess who will be playing him. In the press release, David Quinlan is listed as simply “father.” Could it be him?

I think you’re right because the person listed as “boy” is who I think will be young Rumple.

“We will find out who Emma was chasing in the promo within the first few minutes of the episode.”

😀 An entire episode dedicated to Baelfire (aka NEAL) Emma, Mr. Gold, and Henry! 🙂

Well, that isn’t a mystery – it would not pass through the control at the airport! 😛

OK, have now listened to the audio and collected the melted pieces of my brain…

There is at least one reveal that could shock fans, even if other things have been guessed in advance.

I really hope that’s the case! For all the spoilers I read, the show still does manage to surprise me, so hopefully this will be one of those scenarios.

Greg’s “Her” isn’t important, and neither is his license plate, aside from the fact that he’s not from Storybrooke.

Thought this might be some new info, but I see that she’s just repeating what Jane said in the interview we’ve already heard. Here’s the link to that: http://www.blogtalkradio.com/barbara-barnett/2013/01/22/lets-talk-tv-with-special-guest-jane-espenson and they discuss it around the 12min mark.

Jane: We don’t know who “Her” is.
Barbara: Might we find out at some point?
Jane: Oh I’m sure we’ll find out at some point. This show could run, like, 10 more years, and eventually you’ll find out everything. I think that’s the kind of thing you should expect to find out probably this season
Barbara: I know that the camera panned in to the car’s license plate, keying into the fact that it was from Pennsylvania. Might there be signifcance to either the state or the number?
Jane: Certainly the state. I wouldn’t certainly at this point worry too much about the number, but uuuuuhh, but who knows. But certainly the state.

That doesn’t sound to me as though the identity of Her and the license place will never be significant, just that for now, they wanted to establish that he’s from out of state. Barbara does seem to have interpreted it differently though.

The process of how Cora, Regina, and Hook find Rum’s dagger is interesting. They find a clue in the library, something that Hook has some insight into, being a pirate.

Maybe he schools them on the finer points of selecting a location to bury treasure? 😛 That’s all I’ve got for that one.

We will find out why Rum left the dagger behind on his trip to find his son.

I hadn’t considered that there’d be a specific reason he didn’t take it, other than simply wanting to keep it safely hidden, so this comment intrigues me.

There is an interesting betrayal that happens along the way involving the question of who is Regina’s real enemy.

Okay, this is sort of weird. I think it’s Cora, but that seems like it would be too predictable according to the spoiler, so maybe it’s Hook. That doesn’t make sense either because that’s too predictable, and the writers have said that his quest for revenge on Rumple is far from over.

This part left me confused and clueless.

Barbara: “Who is Regina’s enemy, fundamentally, once and for all? And that is the point of the whole thing. Who is Regina’s REAL enemy? Who is it that killed Regina’s happiness?”
Other chick: “Well it was her mother.”
Barbara: “But in CORA’S point of view?……Think about the whooooooooooole thing, at the beginning of the series, and you’ll see what they’re going for.”

It’s around the 47min mark in the interview if you wanna listen to that whole part of the convo. I can’t come up with anything new in relation to that hint she attempted to drop.

Rum was not drafted into the ogre wars; his service was voluntary. We will find out why he decided to fight, and why he left.

Drat! I should have predicted that Rumple actually volunteered his service because that makes it even more ironic that he became labeled as a coward. (I still believe that there was nothing cowardly about pre-Dark One Rumple, but he became one after he became the Dark One.)

Agreed that I’ve never considered pre-Dark One Rumple as being a coward. Never expected him to have gone willingly to war either. Will be interesting to see his reasoning for enlisting.

This spoiler makes me curious: ~ ”apparently Milah’s family will be the cause that changes everything and puts them into the state they were in “The Crocodile”

I don’t recall hearing Milah’s family mentioned. There’s a bit at the 54min mark where she says: “It’s so very very clear that when he goes off to war, they’re very very much in love. And something profoundly changes that, and puts them in the position where they were back in The Crocodile.”

Also, August makes a brief appearance? What? Why wasn’t Eion in the press release? I guess August must still be a puppet so Eion wasn’t needed. Or I was right the other day & the scenes they were filming were for Manhattan & Eion wasn’t available back in December.

Yes, it’s curious that Eion isn’t listed. Perhaps one of the reveals Barbara mentioned will be that we’ll see where August has been since the curse broke, and that he’s still wood? Perhaps it’ll be a really quick scene, like the last time we saw him in SB? If they want to use him in future eps, it’d make sense to re-introduce him & reveal his location about now.

Wonder if it’s an object that we’ve already seen in his apartment? Or perhaps it’s something small he always carries on him? I’m imagining the reveal of the mystery object will be Neal saying to Emma, “August found me, he had a box, and this was inside,” then he’ll whip out whatever the object is.

I am so curious now. What could it be? I thought Jane Espenson said it was an item that was tweeted to her. So I think it has to be something we’ve seen before. Some of the clues she said a long time ago were that it was “shiny” and “red” and something else.

Maybe it’s a magic heart?

… maybe it’s Cora’s heart? (haha I doubt that, but she did say she had it somewhere that no one could find it — another world would certainly be somewhere it would never be found) But, going with this idea, isn’t the actress who plays “Tamara” going to be in 2×15 (“The Queen is Dead”) and 2×18 (“Selfless, Brave, and True”)? Maybe she was sent by Cora into “the land without magic” with Cora’s heart in tow. In which case, that could explain how August got it. In which case, I have no idea where it is now. Or why.

Shiny and red also fits “ruby slippers.” Maybe Nealfire really likes women’s fashion, haha!

Or perhaps it’s something small he always carries on him? I’m imagining the reveal of the mystery object will be Neal saying to Emma, “August found me, he had a box, and this was inside,” then he’ll whip out whatever the object is.

This is probably more likely. Maybe it’s a pocket watch? We know Nealfire likes watches and if he’s doubling as the “White Rabbit,” it would fit his character.

I’m thinking Rumple since he tricked Regina into the Dark Curse in the first place…it may have been the reason Cora wouldn’t let Regina leave all those years…she was afraid Rumple would get to her. Then again they might be pointing to Snow (going back to the shows roots). I don’t know how that works in with the betrayal thing unless Cora reveals to Regina the reason the Dark Curse was really cast… She thought Rumple was helping her…but if he arranged all the things in her life that led to all the bad in her life…like Snow and the runaway horse that led to Daniels eventual death…she would see that as betrayal.

Urg. I don’t like this. It’s not good for my heart. I hate shocks. My heart only just suck back into place after Hook shot Belle & she fell over the line (I so didn’t see that coming!)

I don’t like surprises either…it’s why I look for spoilers…where is that guy that used to give the Lost scripts 24 hours in advance? 😀

As for the item in the box not being a picture of the dagger…surprised already..an enchanted heart is my second guess.
