OUAT/LOST: Allusion, Nods and Easter Eggs

I like that, Marilou. I noticed some things LOST related in S1, as well. Other than the fun little visual nods (Apollo bars, McCutheon Whiskey…)….seemed like Gold pulled a “long con” on Emma in Desperate Souls. Emma and August’s conversation at the well was reminiscent of Jack/Locke – Man of Science/Man of Faith.

Speaking of long cons, in some respects LOST was about a very long con (the Man in Black trying to find a “loophole” to kill his brother Jacob, Protector of the Island.) We the viewers thought we knew what was going on, until it became clear that we didn’t.

Maybe OUAT is going to be similar. In other words, all things point to Rumple/Gold running the curse con. But maybe someone (“the man/woman behind the curtain?”) is actually running Rumple.

I agree with Stef. I think there is a much larger game being played than Rumple or Regina or Cora know about. And I think the puppet master is really the Blue Fairy.

Yes, I think the BF is behind everytihng.
I think she’s basically good as opposed to evil and her motives/intentions are good, but, has her own plan and is the master manipulator.
She seems like she can anticipate ppl’s actions/reactions and ‘guides’ them without them realizing she’s guiding them to do exactly what she wants them to do.
