How Much Do Philip and Aurora Know?

[Slurpeez]

I wonder if the WW had anything to do with that?

I wouldn’t be surprised if that is part of the “understanding” that Philip and Aurora have with Zelena. She drove out the ogres using her magic and in return demanded they ally with her. She’s like Moscow during the Soviet Union imposing her power on all the other smaller, surrounding satellite states.

Also, I have a theory that perhaps Aurora sent a message to Hook about Zelena’s plans. She knows Hook and believes he cares for Emma. Plus, Aurora and Philip seem to be “in the know” about the Wicked Witch, so I could see her tipping off Hook just before Zelena cast the curse.

Philip and Aurora seem to be hiding a lot of information. Will they ever tell? How much do they know? What sort of encounters have they had with the Wicked Witch?

What I got from that scene was…

• the Ogres are gone. Conveniently.
• Aurora and Phillip have their own kingdom again.
• Did Big Green help them, and then much like a Rumplestiltskin deal they discovered later on her help came with a price?

They definitely know that Big Green won’t be happy to see them back. Don’t know what that means in terms of Big Green/Peter Pan alliances.

Agreed, Zelena was totally how they got rid of the Ogres and restored their kingdom. She probably said that the condition was that they had to tell her if anyone made a surprise appearance, and warned that if they screwed her over, she’d curse their baby. But Philora probably figured no one was ever coming back, having known how desperately Snow and Emma wanted to get back to SB, and Neal was only there briefly by sheer accident, so they probably figured it was a safe deal to make and a total WIN for them. Then everyone from SB had to show up and wreck it all.

I agree. The deal they made was one of protection for their new baby but then Peter Pan had to go and try to recreate NL in SB and POOF.

Is she the reason Philip got his soul back? What if that is what the necklace holds, the souls of those that have been trapped by the Wraith or those souls that are lost.

That’s an interesting theory, especially since we never saw how Phillip was ‘reunited’ with his body, so to speak.  I get the feeling, Aurora and Phillip owe Zelena some kind of debt.  In return, they are bound to serve her and if they should ever disobey, she’ll harm their baby.
