    I don’t understand the hostage scene, Regina is meant to be a powerful witch, and yet she couldn’t simply teleport out of Emma’s hold? That scene was poorly written.

    Ew, you’re right. That was bad. I forgot all about that scene! I was expecting something to come of it–like that to be the moment she realizes that her mom doesn’t really care about her. But no. *sigh*

    I mean seriously. Why was it so hard to get the dagger when she could have just used accio and got it immediately? And they can literally just apparate anywhere.

    It’s obvious the writers don’t take the act of magic itself very seriously in this show, with all these poorly written scenes, why didn’t Regina just simply teleport to her lair to get her moms heart? Why didn’t Cora just teleport the Charmings/Neal out of the way when she first entered the shop…Another funny scene was when they had Regina physically digging last episode….BAHAHA!

    😆 True, though so perfectly illustrated Cora’s character that she made Regina do all the digging, which was also funny! Guess she figured she had done enough manual labor in her life.

And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?” -- Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass

    Wasn’t Mulan’s sword magical in some way?
