Also, they tried to explain the aging thing, but it. Made. No. Sense.
She said she didn’t age once she came to storybrook, because no one in town aged. But Henry did!
People who were cursed did not age, because they were under the curse. Henry came from outside, and was not cursed, and so he grew up. Ingrid was from FTL, but she came by other means, from outside, and was never cursed. Therefor she would not have stopped aging just by entering the town! She was not part of the curse, and I assume she kept her memories during the whole Groundhog Day thing.
Maybe she just lied, and she stayed youthful some other way. *shrug*

December 8, 2014 at 2:02 am #292400GaultheriaParticipantRegina got involved and interested in visitors like August & Greg, but some non-cursed stranger opens an ice cream shop and she didn’t have anything to say about it?
Ingrid arrived in Storybrooke in the middle of Regina’s 28-year Groundhog Day, and Regina had probably long since stopped paying attention to the town. The other newcomers arrived when the curse was still new and when it was over.

This is so true. Wow, now I really wish they’d left that bit out. The writers need to pay more attention to the rules or their own story!
3) How did Ingrid use magic inside SB to take Emma’s memories. Regina’s ring barely worked to make the hat function, so how did the crystal?
I can just about fanwank that by saying maybe she already had the crystal and it had retained its magic. But then it’s not like she had time to pack before heading to our world, and I’m pretty sure that gown didn’t have pockets, so where was she stashing the memory stones?
December 8, 2014 at 11:07 am #292454SlurpeezParticipant2) How did Regina not know that some new stranger arrived in her town?
I hate that the scene of Regina and Ingrid was cut, because it answers this question. Poor editing decision to leave it out. Regina did know a stranger had suddenly set up shop in her town during the curse. Really, they couldn’t find room for this scene at all? It was an important scene insofar as it filled in a lot of these apparent plot holes.
3) How did Ingrid use magic inside SB to take Emma’s memories. Regina’s ring barely worked to make the hat function, so how did the crystal?
Again, the answer was in the cut scene, another reason to have left it in. Ingrid said that even though SB didn’t have magic at that point in time, she brought some magic with her from her world in the form of memory-erasing rocks (the kind the rock trolls used on Belle). That answers the question of how on Earth Ingrid was able to take teenage Emma’s memories. She then gave a rock to Dopey to take Regina’s memories of Ingrid’s sudden arrival in town in 2011. Though the magical rocks seem a little too convenient, and a little too “rectacony” of season one, at least there was a (somewhat) understandable explanation to most of these questions.
She said she didn’t age once she came to storybrook, because no one in town aged. But Henry did!
Yeah, I caught that contradiction as well. Ingrid wasn’t cursed, just as Henry wasn’t, so both should’ve aged. This was just a stupid, stupid oversight of whichever writers wrote this episode.

December 8, 2014 at 11:55 am #292467MatthewPaulModeratorOne question I have is what did Ingrid do during the missing year when everyone was brought back to FTL? I guess she just kept low.

I also want to know how she became a foster mother–started the paper work to adopt Emma–when she has no SSN or other form of ID, education, references, ect

The other question is how did she actually locate Emma in our world. Did the Sorcerer’s scroll tell her? Maybe he conjured up some fake paper work too.

Yeaaaaaah. I think I’m going to have to get used to the idea of Sorcerer as God*. That seems to be where they are going with this.

Identity theft. As much a problem then as it is now.
That scroll came from a magical place, from a magical person so it probably did help her locate Emma as well as SB. Also, a baby being left and found on the side of the road would have made national headlines back then. All she had to do was read about Emma found on the side of the road by a young boy and follow the story. The news story surely mentions that baby Emma went into the foster system . Newspapers kept you updated daily on this type of human interest story. (Look up Baby Jessica and you’ll see what I mean.) Baby found on the side of the road by 7 year old boy gets fostered out and then 3 years later returned would have made headlines in the 80s.
