    "He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"

    Operation Mongoose is a go! Regina finally gets to be the hero, at least for awhile. Marion falls under the icing curse, the one Anna fell under in Frozen, and only an act of true love can reverse it. Throughout the beginning of the episode, no one suspects the Ice Cream shop owner, which we can buy as the audience because the cast is so on point in trying to figure out what to do next. The other people of Storybrooke, predictably, go off  on their own believing Elsa is responsible.

    The flashback scenes don’t enhance the present at all, like they normally do, at least not in the beginning. We see that Hans leads an army to Arrendale and Else and Kristoff must deal with it on their own–and we finally get a glimpse at the urn that held Elsa at the beginning of the season.  It’s nice to see some interaction between Elsa and Kristoff. None of it feels romantic–which many fans were worried about–and it’s endearing to see them bond as future in-laws.’ When they find the urn, the urn reacts to Elsa, which makes her hesitate to destroy it. Obviously, this doesn’t end well for Elsa.

    Regina fans will get the satisfaction at seeing the love triangle between herself, Robin Hood, and Marion grow. Since Robin Hood can’t perform the act of true love himself–predictably, since Tinker Bell already revealed that he and Regina are soul mates. Captain Hook also gets a moment to shine when he calls Rumple out on not giving Bell the actual dagger–it’s moments lie these that remind us that Rumple is fallible too, which makes him a more dynamic character.

    Mary Margaret is tested throughout as the episode progresses, as she tried to balance between running a town and taking care of her baby. Both Prince Charming and Archie take the time to point that out and Archie tries to go through a make-shift therapy session with Snow. The things he says are so on point in terms of letting go of that maternal bond to give room for the child to grow–it was fantastic to see adults encapsulate what children and teenagers feel.

    It isn’t until the middle of the episode that Emma and David find out the truth of who’s actually behind the ice wall. Unfortunately, they’re not in the right place, as Captain Hook and Elsa pursue the ice cream store owner. To see Captain Hook and Emma apart again made for great room for each of them breathe without their chemistry to fall back on. They finally find the Snow Queen and hands off to the costume designers because her dress is absolutely beautiful. Costuming is a rare thing to comment on, but Once Upon a Time does a great job in this department.

    The entire episode culminates into a confrontation between Elsa and the Snow Queen. Elsa sees through the Snow Queen’s manipulations, and thankfully Emma and David make a timely rescue.Emma gets her own moment to use her magic, which is absolutely spectacular. That moment felt earned in all the right ways, but unfortunately the Snow Queen escapes. In the flashback, we’re finally able to find the connection between Elsa and the Snow Queen–it’s in the traditional Once Upon a Time plot twist, too.

    The Snow Queen is Elsa’s Aunt, for those who missed it.
