KeymasterShe thought it was a waste of an hour and that they are doing nothing but going in circles.
And yet, the handling of Neal’s death and aftermath would lead you to believe that there is a huge BOLD storyline they are aching to tell… so much so that they have to rush through important events like the death of HENRY’S FATHER, RUMPLE’S SON, and EMMA’S LOVE. (sorry for yelling, but for real) SMH
The fact that they buried Neal yesterday and today no one is mentioning him coupled with “I’m tired of living in the past” just means they want Neal forgotten for good.

ParticipantMy Voodoo magic and chants worked guys! (Some of you will understand this 😉 )
I got encouraged last night to start back on my abandoned story on fanfiction.com, A Bug’s Life. I actually had some time this morning at work before the kids came in an reread it. It’s been awhile. I might just pick up and add to it. 🙂 I’m getting the urge to write once again and this crappy development on my screen is encouraging me to turn to fanon once again.

ParticipantOkay crack theory. Maybe Zelena has already figured out how to manipulate time but hasn’t been able to change that ONE thing (Regina’s birth, her mother giving her up, whatever it is) she wants to. Maybe she has already been to storybrooke, been through this situation multiple times and what we are watching now is just her most recent endeavor. In “Manhattan” Rumple offeres Bae to go back in time. His response, “I don’t want to be 14 again!” So how was Rumple going to do it? How was he going to go back? (Time turner ala Harry Potter?) Crack theory suggests Z is trying to do more than just go back in time, she is trying to change time. Yeah I know, what’s the difference? Crack theories don’t always make sense lol.
So what if something keeps going wrong; Zelena keeps almost being beaten and flips time back to re-do the chain of events. For example, her first go-round she did something that made Snow suspicious and was caught out. But each subsequent attempt she got smarter and the Charmings got dumber (OOC).
Every time she goes back, she knows more, is better prepared for whatever they throw at her and is able to manipulate the situation to her advantage. It may explain how she knows so much about everyone, how she is one step ahead all the time, why everyone’s behavior is so OOC. Because while the more she goes back the more she knows, the more she is also changing how THEY behave and their reactions to her and everyone else.
Not sure how this would explain the BTS pics we’ve seen of Emma and Hook dressed OOC but maybe it’s her finally getting it right or they (Emma and Co.) have used Rumple’s method of time manipulation somehow to prevent what Z is doing.
Any theories I have in my head at this point are motivated by explaining what is happening in S3b cause it seems so horribly written and off track that it must be on purpose. They MUST have a reason for so much OOC behavior.
I’ll admit I’m also motivated by explaining Neal’s death and/or bringing him back but really I’m not worried about that because either MRJ is gone or he is not. I’m either done after the season finale or I am not. If something did indeed happen BTS resulting in him leaving that we are not privy to I cannot say and the speculation is exhausting but by killing Neal it seems everything and everyone else was also altered. This just isn’t the same show I’ve been watching for 2 and 1/2 seasons.

ParticipantWhile I’m annoyed that this Hook-Emma romance is being shoved down my throat, one scene from last night’s episode actually comforted me.
When Hook was teaching Henry how to cheat, that’s when I knew there’s no future for CS.
There’s a much bigger picture happening here, and I think we’re just going to have to wait to see how they conclude all this.
It’s more about Henry than Emma, and Henry deserves better.

ParticipantI told you, Neal would be only a whisper of a memory only referred to Rumple as “my boy,” till even he has forgotten that he ever had a son. Because, your son, your father, your love, are just in the past, why respect or honor their memory when you can just forget them. Isn’t that how it works in the real world. Fortunately for once the real world is better than fantasy, we do not forget the ones we love.
(Even Star Trek TNG remembered Tasha Yar years later, even in the end of the series they did not forget Natasha Yar. The Same with Angel’s Cordy.)
“The world is changed, I feel it in the water, I feel it in the earth. I smell it in the air. Much that once was is lost; for none now live who remember it…..”

Alas my OUAT who knew this is where you will be from Season 1 ……..

ParticipantWhat about the worn-out argument from CSers that Evil Neal doubted/mocked Emma’s superpower while St. Hook bought into it, yet now Hook is the one skating around it? Hmmmm…

Not only cheat but that the most important thing is to win–no matter what you have to do.

ParticipantOK I HAVE to stop. I’m going to take a break from the forums it is unhealthy for me to even consider talking about this story that makes no sense…
now Emma can possibly lose her magical powers? the magical powers that GOLD GAVE HER?? by taking her parent’s powerful love and giving it magical properties? this power can just so easily just GO? what??
why am I talking about a show that I haven’t watched?
I am not planning to watch, even after Bae comes back.. I doubt I would sit myself through this episode, if it’s about what you guys are sayingApril 14, 2014 at 3:04 pm #261418Onyx

Thankfully he’s only corrupting the memory-less Henry. If he ever gets his memories back, I’m sure much of what Hook has been “teaching” him will be disregarded.
