    I am pretty sure this is going to be a young Greg. And if this kid is the reason Regina wanted Henry, wouldn’t that ultimately make Greg the one responsible for him finding bae and thus his undoing? They said the placement of this episode was for a major reason and this could be why since we know rumple has vowed to kill the boy. If he reasons this out he could spare his grandson and not cause more friction with his son (which I believe killing anyone would do but espcially Henry).

    Interesting idea, and yes, in a convoluted way, it would make this kid involved, if he’s the one who made Regina want a child, which ended up being Henry. I don’t really want this kid to be young Greg, because it messes up my Wizard of Oz theory, but I confess, you might be onto something here.

    Ooooh. I agree with Phee. I think you’re on to something here. The Seer was very vague about how the boy is.

    Yes, agreed. And everyone affiliated officially with this show has been very careful not to leak anything about this boy’s identity. I haven’t read any major spoiler’s on him, except maybe that he’s “Owen” the boy who lost his mom. Maybe he’s the boy who inspired Regina to adopt Henry, which in a very indirect way, would have caused Emma to come to town and for Bae to be found.

    If “Owen” is Greg, then I have to wonder: is it a coincidence that he found himself back in SB again? Probably not. If he wasn’t an original inhabitant, but somehow became aware of SB as a kid, he may have been trying to find his way back there. I wonder if “HER” knows anything about SB prior to Greg sending her the video of Regina.

    I agree that Greg has intentionally returned to SB, because he was there as a boy. Also, if I had to guess, HER is someone significant, and I don’t just mean Greg’s significant other. She could be someone mythical herself, from another land like Oz, and she sent Greg to learn more about the magic Greg recalled seeing from childhood. That way the theory about Greg being adult Owen, the boy who inspired Regina to adopt Henry, could still be reconciled with the idea of Greg being the wizard of Oz, who is from our world.

    H and K said that in this episode we’d be seeing the first week of cursed SB, so I’m going to guess that the curse wasn’t working fully for the first week or so. Lots kinks, ect, which would help explain how an otherworldly character got out of SB when all along we’ve been told that bad things happen to those who tried to leave cursed SB.
    As regards Oz: I’m in love with the idea that we could go to Oz soon (Wizard of Oz is one of my very favorite movie), but what if Greg isnt’ Oz YET? What if he’s from there, came to SB with the curse, left at a young age, is now back, and I’m going to guess he finds himself traveling to Neverland with our heroes by season end, and then somehow becomes Oz. What this rests on is figuring out how the Curse affected all the other lands. I think we assume/know that those who had dealings with Regina (Jefferson, Frankenstein) from other lands came through b/c they had dealings with her, but what we don’t know yet is how lands/people that had never been in contact with Regina were affected. Seeing Neveland at the end of 2 is going to help here a lot.
    Ok, I just went off on several tangents. Sorry! 🙂

    My money is on a Young Greg. Have we seen him in actual Storybrooke? Or just on set? To me, that’s a big difference. If he’s in SB, then he’s a FTL character, but if he’s just on set, it could be outside the town and I think we’re going to see that Greg has some history with SB.

    I think I saw somewhere that he was in a scene with Regina and since this is the flashback episode, Owen might be the little boy who inspired Regina to adopt.

    Hmmm. Ok. Well, if the curse was still pretty wonky the first week, people could have left without consequence. Except that if “Owen” is the boy who inspired Regina to adpot, that was 11 years ago and we assume the Curse was set in stone by that point.

    Remember, Henry was adopted when he was only a week old and I think Adam and Eddie said that we would be seeing Storybrooke during the first week of the curse.
