KeymasterThe episode has passed. It was a good, though not quite what I thought it would be.
But the big thing is that Sheldon *agreed* to the sleepover after acknowleding that it was a big step for them. And he did so rather gleefully.
Character progress. It’s a silly little comedy show but they know how it’s done. I am going to need to rewatch.

ParticipantSOMEONE BETTER HAVE A REALLY GOOD FREAKING EXPLANATION FOR WHY REGINA HAS NEAL’S KEYS AND IS WILLY NILLY GIVING THEM TO ROBIN HOOD AND HIS FAMILY TO CRASH IN
Now…now…I’m sure Emma offered them to Regina first.

Oh well that totally makes it 100% okay. No it doesn’t. It’s offensive. The ONE Neal reference we finally get after an entire season of erasure is that with absolutely ZERO explanation someone who maybe spoke FIVE words to Neal in his entire life is randomly handing off HIS KEYS TO HIS APARTMENT to a perfect stranger!? But OH NO LETS NOT HAVE RUMPLE GO TO HIS SON’S APARTMENT, HE ONLY SPENT 300 YEARS LOOKING FOR HIS CHILD BEFORE HE LOST HIM FOR GOOD AND HAS YET TO GIVE ANY KIND OF INDICATION THAT HE CARES. BUT NO NO NO. LET’S HAVE REGINA OF ALL PEOPLE GIVE THEM TO ROBIN OF ALL PEOPLE.
Please. It’s offensive and it’s wrong and it’s flat out stupid.

Participant*poofs in with a gust of rainbow sparkles of happiness*
Maybe we’ll get more of an explanation when we actually see the episode? I feel like I haven’t posted here in a few days.Take this sweety as tribute!

KeymasterOk, it doesn’t matter what explanation they cook up. Here’s the thing that’s offensive.
The first time we get a Nealfire reference in HOW LONG and it’s from people who could care less that he’s dead, not from people who should actually be upset by his death (Rumple, Henry, Emma..) and instead of it being meaningful and heartfelt, to show that these characters have actual human emotions and aren’t just caricatures and robots only focused on shiny shiny magic and PLOT….it’s to hint at what is to come plot wise–brief and uneeded outside of shiny shiny plot.
That is what is offense. He is mentioned in passing for PLOT not because the characters on this show should actually want to talk about him as if he was a meaningful part of this story because guess what–HE WAS.
That is what is offensive. I don’t care what excuse the show has for why Regina had the keys. No explanation changes their treatment of Nealfire and how is being used in the most offensive and horrifying way possible.

Participant^THAT!
What I wrote about the sneak peek:
I’m just going to say it and then I’ll drop it. It really annoys me that Rumple hasn’t mentioned his son once since 4×1 when he pledged at his son’s grave to turn over a new leaf. Now Zelena, his son’s murderer, is the one uttering Baelfire’s name. It’s salt in a wound…And yeah, it makes no sense why Regina, rather than Rumple, wou have keys to Bae’s apartment. Why on Earth wouldn’t Rumple have stayed at Neal’s place? The place where he found his beloved boy again. Now Zelena is staying there??? *heads desk*"That’s how you know you’ve really got a home.

ParticipantAlright…Alright…I’ll admit, I have zero clue why Regina would have the keys to Baelfire’s Apartment…. but think about it…it could have been worse….HOOK could have the keys instead! “dodges tomatoes”
And to be honest, because we all know how Adam and Eddy work, we may not even get an explanation as to how or why Regina had the keys to Bae’s Apartment…. didn’t they only speak one or two words together in ALL the times they met??? The one and only time I’ve ever heard Neal say Regina’s name was that one time in 3×11…before and after that….no conversations.
#RIP To Regina Telling Neal All About Henry’s Childhood….something they could’ve…you know…bonded over? They were almost siblings…

ParticipantI was a bit annoyed that Regina is handing the keys to Neal’s apartment to whoever she wants. It seems a little…insensitive? Why couldn’t we get an emotional scene of Rumple actually going to his son’s apartment after Neal’s death? Or perhaps we are going to get that only when he gets there he finds Robin and family already living there, and that’s how Rumple stumbles across Robin in New York.
Why can’t the other characters actually give Neal’s things to his father instead of palming it off to whoever they choose. Seriously, the lack of compassion from the “heroes” towards Rumple after Neal’s death is staggering. I know Rumple’s done some less than stellar things, but at least have the heroes attempt to reach out even if it’s to try and dissuade Rumple from a course of action with a “What would Baelfire want you to do?”
All magic comes with a price!
