Sneak Peeks for 2×20 (NOW UP!!!)

Well, she had no need for magic during the Curse years. She had won. Plus, magic didn’t completely disappear. She didn’t bring much with her but there was some, and I’ve often wondered if she used it occasionally for something.
If she finds some way to get her magic back in S3, would she take it? If she still thinks the CharmingStiltskins provide a threat to her happiness and Henry, I can see her trying to get her magic back because her rationale is that she needs it to protect Henry, never mind the fact that it’s only insuring that the wedge between them continues to grow.

Even Regina realized she hadn’t truly “won” because in Welcome to Stroybrooke, she was frustrated that everyone simply did as she said. She wasn’t truly satisfied, because of the giant hole in her heart. As I wrote above, even without magic, Mayor Mills was still full-on crazy with her scheming and manipulating, especially when Emma arrived. Regina separated Owen from Kurt, she lied to Henry and made him feel like he was crazy, she locked Belle and Sidney away in the hospital basement, she put Jefferson under house-arrest, she set Mary Margaret up for a fake murder, she cursed John Doe with fake memories as David Nolan, she killed Sheriff Graham, she tried to get Emma arrested, and she tried to send Ava, Nicolas, and Kathryn over the town boarder, knowing something tragic would happen to them. Eventually, I think you’re right that Regina had some magical trinkets, which she used to retrieve a poison apple to try and curse Emma but instead cursed Henry. While we don’t know how much magic she actually had, but I’m going to estimate not very much. She had to rely on her wits and evil calculating mind to get what she wanted. So, I’m starting to doubt that even without magic, Regina would regain her sanity; magic may fuel her madness, but I think it’s mostly in her head.

Well, she certainly can live without it, since she did for 28 years in SB before Mr. Gold brought magic there. Hmmm, that makes me question whether she’d actually become saner. Even as “magic-less: Mayor Mills, she managed to be pretty full-on crazy. She separated Kurt Flynn and murdered Graham. Yet, I think what you’re getting at is would she be content to live without magic? She may not have a choice though if she’s “zapped’ of her magical ability by GOAT.

During those 28 years nobody else had magic either. Her jones for it would be heightened by seeing others use magic. I think Regina would love to be the only one with magic, just like she wants to be the only one with a happy ending. And yeah, she still did some full-on crazy as Mayor Mills. If she were to get saner it would probably be due more to Henry than not having magic. She got her crap together briefly when he fell under the sleeping curse last year and again when she was first trying to stop Cora from coming to SB. The question is for how long would she keep it together this time?

I’m more inclined to agree. Mayor Mills was just as crazy as Queen Regina. Magic fuels the madness, but the madness doesn’t just go away when the magic does. Perhaps the difference is that Regina had a hole in heart, even when she adopted Henry, so long as the curse was in play. I think when Emma broke the curse, the hole was filled, and Regina was able to love Henry. Maybe without magic, and with Henry’s love, she could regain sanity. It’s a big question mark for me though. I keep wavering back and forth on this one.

I’m totally on board with Regina losing her powers when she gets zapped. Girlfriend needs to be smacked down. Hard. She’s sunk so low that she really can’t help herself, and she needs to be forced into changing by something that’s completely outside her control. Having her powers sucked out of her when she’s kidnapped would do the trick. I do hope that’s where they’re headed, because that 4th sneak peek shows her as being SO dark, twisted, and deluded, that surely they have to be setting it up to show a major contrast. Right?

I do wonder whether they’re going to extend an invitation to Rumple, since he’s not exactly a safe person either, though I think he was more dangerous in FTL for reasons.

Right now, in the present day, everyone else isn’t aware of the dark thoughts he’s been having in regard to getting rid of Henry. They all see him trying to play the role of grandpa, which makes him seem less threatening than he’s ever been before. That may change a bit if he lets his dark side start to show a bit more for Lacey, though.

Urg, Hook needs to give up.

This whole exchange Regina has with Henry is so outside the realm of reality that I am beginning to wonder if Tamara didn’t steal Regina’s spell book after getting the information from torturing her. I can see that being a Regina altered, or even someone else pretending to be Regina. She does cast a spell from the book on Henry.

Thanks for the link! Added it to the first page.

Okay. 1) How does Tamara know anything about the DARK ONE. (because she’s RH and Marian’s daughter OBVIOUSLY!)
2) “Did that last job…” Does that sound like Tamara and Owen sent Hook after Rumple to anyone else?
3) Lacey and Rumple. Feelings.
4) Greg is not innocent at all.

Hehe…. that might be my favorite sneak peek so far.

So that answers both what Hook is doing with the spyglass and what the pictures of Belle and Rumple coming out of the bar were all about.

While I’ve grown tired of Hook’s revenge plot, I’m really excited to see Colin’s beautiful face on my screen again! 😀

-Woah! Sneak peek number 1: Regina…let’s just….tone down the crey a little. *backs away slowly*
-“Don’t Emma me!” Aww the mother, daughter feels!
-Emma in regards to her feelings towards Neal: *ahem* DENIAAAAL

[vilya]

No chemistry between Hook and Tamara at all…he wasn’t even trying to charm her. Either he knows better, or he really does like Emma.

Ya know, it hadn’t occurred to me that Hook would be unaware that Rumple survived until now, but DUH, of course he wouldn’t have known. Poor bugger.

The bit where he laughs…I nearly fell outta my chair.

Every time I see Greg, I like him less.

It was sort of worded in a weird way, but I think he was just saying that that was the one task in life he had to fulfill. It was a self appointed job.
