    Hey, he had six whole weeks to master all that :p

    Dude. You know what I did in my first 6 weeks of ancient Greek? I sent a lot of goats to islands and Homer educated a lot of men (and brothers)…

    One time Homer actually educated goats….though I’m pretty sure it was because his brother sent him the goats from an island…

    Anyway.

    Agree that Royal Navy is the dumber of the two excuses.

    I think I have a new pet peeve: listening to TV characters repeatedly describing to each other what they are all seeing and experiencing.

    Hmmm 7/10.

    LIKES

    -That TLK didn’t occur between Belle and Rumple.

    -That a villain got their comeuppance (Pan).

    -That Hook will stay in the underworld (though this will likely be temporary)

    -That Robin got a few lines.

    -That Henry got a few lines.

     

    DISLIKES

    -Again (like I said about last weeks episode) please stop saying that one person is capable of directly changing another person.

    -Still no clarification on whether Hades was capable of killing people in the Upperworlds to get more souls for the Underworld.

    -Still no clarification on why Hades wouldn’t push Mila into the river himself.

    -Still no clarification on why he needed more souls in the Underworld-why he needed the sailors to die.

    -No clarification on why he needed baby Hood.

    -So Hades decides he wants a new life with Zelena, and Zelena agrees, AND they shared TLK even though he tried to STEAL HER BABY??? What a turn-on that must be.

    -A useless flashback. It added nothing to the current plot. Could we see why Robin claims that he has a dark past? Or spend the time on the SB-as -the-new-Camelot plot, please. OR use the time to show Regina coming face to face with more people she has wronged/killed and her helping them move on? OR more time spent on helping the other souls move on in general?

    CONFUSIONS

    -So I guess that Emma’s heart can be taken if willingly offered?

    Seriously, are the writers playing a game of old-style exquisite corpse? Are they even bothering to look at the World-Building and character building and the plot building they have done even one or two episodes ago?

    (Geddit? exquisite corpse? Hook?).

    They don’t bother with anything anymore.

    The rules in 5B has constantly changed throughout the season.

    Hades’ motivation and goal has constantly changed throughout the season – no hope, decay, time travel, true love kiss, beating Hook for no reason, wanting Regina out, wanting Regina stuck, and apparently next episode he has an entire new goal.

    Henry’s Author sublot literally served nothing, it had no porpuse. The resolution was “someone will find it” (read: I don’t care anymore). Seriously?!

    Please, I want someone to prove to me that they have some kind of plan, that what the characters go through mean something, that everything is connected and we will know it at the end and we’ll actually feel some kind of pay off that feels like it was earned and not thrown in there because there is no more time, because it doesn’t feel that way to me.
