Hey! You know something I just thought of? When Emma DOES actually believe will only be the beginning of a very interesting fairy tale journey for her because, just like us, she is going to have to throw all of her preconceived notions of the classic fairy tales out the window. Only for her, she will actually be LIVING with these people. So while we think it’s wild that Red is also the wolf, Emma will be hanging out at Granny’s having a hot chocolate brought to her by Ruby who she will now be very aware is Red Riding Hood AND the wolf.
So I wonder just how much of the real fairy tale details are covered in Henry’s book. Someone asked in another thread if Emma would still want to work with Gold once she finds out who he is. It’s an interesting question because, for me, I wouldn’t if I was only going by the original Rumplestiltskin fairy tale, however if I knew the Rumple backstory of how he became the Dark One only because he wanted to save his son from the Ogre Wars, I would feel differently.
And will she and Henry know more details because of the book so they can fill MM and Regina etc. in on pieces of their own stories that they might not even know? For example, Regina doesn’t know how Cora got Snow to tell her about Daniel.

That’s a good question! When she finally does, she’s gonna be the one walking around in a daze.
If we’re really really lucky that could encompass season 2! That would be so great! Probably whishful thinking, but there’s always hope. 😉
I can see Morrison’s face, pretty Henry-like, looking at all these people she thought she knew and imagining them being who they really are …Interesting question, Rumplegoldfan. If Emma had believed in Henry’s claim early on, we’d have no series! She’d have grabbed Henry (and maybe her mom and dad) and hit the road–no way would she leave him with the Evil Queen. But now she’s come to care about too many of SB’s residents to leave them in the lurch.
I like this thread :). The storybook looked pretty big, but it has lots of picture pages. so would it have enough pages to tell everything that concerned every single character? That would be a lot of reading. I wonder if it’s in order of the fairytales, or if it’s in order of events. Maybe we just don’t he enough information to tell right now.
I don’t think I would say that she has started to believe yet. At Paley Fest Jennifer said that the way she would describe it is that Emma has started to figure out that something is not right in SB. I would agree with that statement but instead of saying that she is starting to believe, I would say that she is becoming intrigued with the idea of the book – not the idea of the people in SB being fairy tale characters just yet, just intrigued with how people in SB seem to resemble characters in the book, and now Jefferson has also talked to her about the book.
First off, she is a bounty hunter and is used to dealing with people who lie and cheat all the time so this is one incredibly skeptical woman we are talking about. Second, even though she is reading the book – and even seems to be reading the book looking for answers – she doesn’t really know where the book came from (neither do we) so she isn’t likely to even make the jump from finding the book might help her in situations like MM’s murder charges to actually believing MM is SW.
The reason I think that she doesn’t yet believe is that there is really no good reason, aside from the SW fairy tale, for Regina to hate MM so much. And Regina has pretty much shown Emma that she hates MM and wants her ocked up for murdering Kathryn. If I was Emma I would be trying to find SOME kind of reason for Regina to hate MM so much. Emma could see right through Regina’s “friendship” with Kathryn so I don’t believe she would buy that as a reason. As the mayor, I would understand Regina wanting justice but her desire for wanting MM to be found guilty goes beyond that. And if Emma was even remotely starting to believe, I would think we would see her taking a bit of an interest in the SW story and potentially talking to August and Henry more about the book. That may be upcoming in the next few episodes – hopefully so. At least she appears to be aligning herself with the correct people and figuring out who can’t be trusted now.
Does the book mention everything? Does it mention how Regina became Queen? Surely Henry would know, then? You’re probably right about Emma though. How could she believe it? And someone could have made it up using storybrooke characters. I wish I knew exactly what was in the book.
