Good grief it wouldn’t be fair to all the other people, Gepetto gets to have a real kid twice, and if the Cricket can change his mind from wanting to be a cricket to a man, I don’t think that is right he made a choice so he should go back to being the Cricket. Gepetto can’t live much longer he is an old man and I am sorry to say if Gepetto dies then I think the Cricket should too no one else seems to get 2nd choices like that . Snow wasn’t giving a another chance to raise Emma as baby, I say no way for the Dr Hopper he should go back to being a cricket and so should Rumble in my opinion.
Question: Why did it take till now when Bae showed up to finally give Felix a photo of the boy that the guy is looking for or for that much PP so they would have grabbed the right kid instead of collecting them ❓

There is likely only one copy of that picture, and it likely stays hidden in a particular place so it remains secret to all but those closest to PP: Felix and the others in that group of Lost Ones. I’m quite sure they’ve all seen it before, but most people don’t have a photographic memory, so they have to take it out and compare it to any candidates that are brought in to see if they’re a perfect match.

Good grief?Why do you like to call Jimminy “the Cricket” so much? This show is all about 2nd chances and hope. Some things can’t be set right as it is “too late” in terms of the plot of the show. Other things though, the writers have some freedom to craft a happier ending or not, as they choose. In this show, Jimminy chose to be a cricket only because he wanted to escape from his evil, awful, controlling parents and atone for what he’d done to Gepetto. That was in a way, an accident as Jimminy didn’t mean to hurt them, and didn’t know what would happen. At the time, cricket-dom was his wish, but what if his wish has changed?
Its not a plot line I expect they’ll be doing any time soon now given the NL story arc, but we had a hint of it with Whale and Ruby talking. The curse ruined a lot of lives, but there were some characters who were perhaps given the chance for a new start and maybe a better life.
I might like to see what would happen to Sydney Glass/Genie (were the actor to be available once again). Or Nova and Grumpy–or Tiny. They’ve been given humanity in a way, by the curse, and it would be an interesting plot to develop to what extent various FTL creature types would want to keep that or ought to keep that rather than just go back to FTL as if everything were so amazing there, when it wasn’t for everyone.Then there are characters like Jefferson and Grace/Paige. She has this whole family relationship with the couple who the curse made her think were her parents. Jefferson was driven mad–should he “stay mad” and not get to have custody of his daughter because it wouldn’t be “fair” for him to be reunited with his daughter, when Snow doesn’t get that chance?
It is kind of a plot hole why some magical creatures reverted (Ruby with her wolf form) and others didn’t (the dwarves and fairies). I think it’s ripe for a storyline to explain and explore. I would want to see stories about whether FTL and resuming their exact lives (to the extent possible given the stuff that cannot be reset) is even a good thing.Question: Why did it take till now when Bae showed up to finally give Felix a photo of the boy that the guy is looking for or for that much PP so they would have grabbed the right kid instead of collecting them ❓
I agree with Phee–but want to add that “meta-reason” is it was more dramatic to unfold the reveal that way, and its unlikely there’ll be an “in-story” reason for it shown on screen, so that kind of fan theory may be all we get. Kind of like there’ll never be an explanation why Greg and Tamara went and hid in the stacks when Regina came out of the elevator after getting the fail safe.
If you want more discussion of fan theories on why, you can reread how you were answered the last time you brought it up–on this thread “Peter Pan confirmed to be played by new male actor”

The storyline didn’t need to continue in my opinion. Keith wasn’t important, what happened to him wasn’t important. What was important was Rumple taking that step back into Darkness to appeal to Lacey. It was a contrast to sparing Robin’s life back in FTL while Belle watched. You can use your imagination as to what happened to Keith: he went to the hospital and learned never to cross Rumple again. There were much bigger things happening and taking time away to focus on the aftermath of Keith would be a total waste.

She should have turned him down since he was pretty not pure of anything, we could guess, but when in doubt, that’s who ties up the plot threads. 😆

May 28, 2013 at 12:10 am #196353HappyEndingsSpectatorYou know I forgot did the BF want to went return to FL too, if so wouldn’t she turn back into that flying fairy thing ❓
I still think that since she is the Blue Star, and Emma made that wish on her birthday that she was clever enough to do something to get Emma to SB
May 28, 2013 at 12:36 am #196354HappyEndingsSpectatorQuestion: What do you think of this idea since Aurora, Snow, David and Henry have been under the sleeping curse, I wonder if this is how Bae will connect with Henry like Aurora did the 1st time when Snow and Emma was in FL, and maybe Henry can commuciate to Snow, or David where he is in his dreams from NL. 💡
May 28, 2013 at 1:26 am #196356RumplesGirlKeymasterI came up with a similar theory here when I suggested how Belle, Bae and Rumple will be reunited. I think we’ll see the Red Room again, for sure.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"May 28, 2013 at 1:54 am #196362HappyEndingsSpectatorOk, back on the BF thing do you think that a Bad Fairy took all the beans? What if the bad fairy is tinkerbell? or maybe one of Aurora’s fairies?
