FAVORITE AND LEAST FAVORITE MOMENTS from this episode 5 x 09 BEAR KING – – –

[MatthewPaul]

The fact that they have now introduced a Magical McGuffin that allows someone to not only talk to but interact and even hug a dead person makes my left eye twitch. I know it won’t be used for Neal but once again he’s the giant elephant in the room because… y’know…back in episode 505, Henry made a big show about how much he’s learned from his father and how he wishes Neal were around to talk to. And Rumple apparently doesn’t know about magical ale unless this show wants me to believe that Rumple wouldn’t use every opportunity to try and talk to his dead son–because I have amnesia and have forgotten what a huge swath of S1 and S2 were about.

Elephant. Room. Blah blah blah

This also presents another option they could have used to talk to Cora in “Bleeding Through”, instead of resorting to a seance. I guess conveniently, there was simply none of that ale located in Storybrooke at the time. However, I wouldn’t be surprised if it turns out that Merida had the rest of the ale on her when Emma brought her to Storybrooke, and they’ll end up using it to talk to Hook after he’s “taken” to the Underworld. I’m pretty certain that they had Fergus tell her not to waste more of that ale for a reason.
