    I’m not basing my thoughts on so-called spoilers anymore. I still think the theme of “home’ is so important to the story of Baelfire and Emma that it makes a lot of narrative sense for Oz to be important to both of their stories. I’m not just speaking as a fan of Swanfire….I’m trying to be objective when I say that “home” has been brought up repeatedly in connection to these two characters.

    I’m not even sure how to interpret the possibility of Dylan returning to ONCE during the Glinda/Oz episode. Confusing information is confusing. But they do parallels in this show (a lot) so if Bae is coming back for a flashback, then it means something is happening with Neal in the present? Who knows at this point. But I do like the idea that Nealfire was in Oz

    I know but …>SPOILERS!!!!
    I still feel conflicted about everything we hear. Is it bad, is it good? It’s so hard to say at this point with all the spin. Is it a “wrap-up ” arc or is it, they’re finally free to reveal some good things about Neal after trying to keep it on the down-low? I just don’t even know but I’ve been hoping that Neal had a trip through Oz to get to our world, and that since the Darling-pan -connections were so limited, that there was more ominous meddlign in his life from someone in Oz. Guess we have to wait and see. Someone sent August with information about Bae, convinced August that Bae had to be run off from Emma, and I want to see who and what was their motive for doing that.

    [/spoiler]

    I have a theory that Neal spent time in OZ most likely while Dorthy was there and it’s possible he helped her escape with the slippers or maybe Dorthy’s son was also in OZ and met Neal and helped him get back to The Land Without Magic. I do believe this will be a huge episode and that we may just find out how August knew Neal was Baelfire. I suspect it was someone who was working for the WWW.

    I’ll go one further I suspect the WWW knew PP and had mutual interests so it’s possible they could have worked together at some point. Maybe the 2 of them created “The Home Ofice” as it was called in our world

    Or the WW was working “diagonally” against Pan just like Rumple did against Regina.    Or Glinda was!  A “chess match” thing would be part of building a new story I think.

    There’s so many ways for them to skip forward into the story given their usual nonlinear style of story-telling, that they could just start with Glinda and suddenly out of nowhere, there’s Bae in the scene.

    Also, Glinda’s character description sounds a lot like Bae’s. Both have maintained their optimism, despite being isolated.  Maybe Glinda helped Bae get ‘home’ to Earth when he then met Emma.

    Headcanon: accepted, Slurpeez.

    I like where this is going. Glinda helped Bae get to Earth to meet Emma–his home. Glinda helped Dorothy get home where she’ll have Henry (Gorham) who will help reunite Emma and Neal
