ParticipantI agree with earlier posters, I think Black Fairy is one of 2:
1. Maleficent
I would love if Black Fairy were Maleficent. I believe M was a fairy along with Fauna, Flora, and Merriweather, which was why it smarted so much when she was snubbed by the King and Queen. Not necessarily exiled to another land, but it was curious that she seemed to be neutralized as a threat (at least to Sleeping Beauty) by the time Regina visited her. Maybe exiled/confined to her castle? It would explain her suggestion to Regina to get a pet to alleviate her loneliness. She had a unicorn, yes?
2. Wicked With of the EAST
Going back to the original Oz movie, WWE was the sister of the WWW We never see anything other than her striped ankle socks and ruby slippers in the movie because Dorothy and her house drop in on her :-/ I am inclined to believe it is the witch of the East because somehow Blue has acquired her wand. Either she took it away during a confrontation, or it was brought to her postmortem. Anymahoo, just my fun little theory, building on what others have posted here.

ParticipantI like the number on the door of Emmas appartment 311 in black and green.
@Tiararose, what’s the significance? All I can think of when I see 311 is the 90’s band!

ParticipantLikes & Dislikes
Enjoyed the goodbye scene at the town line. Very emotional.
Snow’s pep talk with Emma. Happy endings don’t always look how we think they will- their happy ending with Emma- the time they spent together as a family, the lives she was able to touch in her short span in Storybrooke.
I liked that Henry was able to see Mary Margaret as Snow.
Granny sniffing Henry out. But why was he not at the well?
Blue’s dialogue. Hinting at the origin of Henry’s book??? their story will “reveal itself in time.”
Hook has chemistry with Emma and Tinkerbell. Enjoyed his farewell scene with Emma.
I like that Pan knew his magic cloud would be green. Someone please refresh my memory…has Rumple’s cloud always been Red, or is it red and purple at different times? Anyways, like that we’re adding to the color scheme.
Set decorators always give us plenty to take in. I enjoyed hunting Emma’s apartment for references to Storybrooke. I miss the easter eggs.
Dislikes:
Mixed feelings over the way Pan was written as a villain and his relationship with Rumple. Adult Pan seems flighty and careless but not evil. Child Pan is malicious, bullying and full of contempt for Rumple. Wasn’t totally surprised by the mini speech he gave, telling Rumple that he was a drain on him. But looking back on previous epis wondering why they wrote in the scene with a tearful eyed Pan abandoning Rumple to the Shadow in Neverland? Spare me the crocodile tears Pan.
Can we please give Neal some dialogue? A storyline? Michael Raymond James will you please emote? Did he have a goodbye scene with Emma? If so it must not have been very memorable.
The Rumple death scene felt anticlimatic to me. I feel like I’m waiting for permission to mourn from show’s writers. They used to be very clear about deaths. Once you die, there is no coming back. Then they introduced wraiths and shadows and now it seems less certain. Why did his body disappear? Where’d he go?
Disliked the way the curse/Emma’s new journey was written. SO MANY RULES. I don’t feel they did a good job of explaining why it was “not an option” for Emma to return to EF. Writing felt a little dicey.

ParticipantI like the theory that the book could’ve been written by Blue. Would be a literal translation of the term “fairytale.” Maybe I’ve been watching too many Christmas movies, but I like the idea that the fairies collectively wrote the book together- like they were trying to hurriedly record a personal history before the curse was cast. Like some sort of map or key for the savior.
I can still remember Blue’s words from the premiere episode. She leaves Snow and Charming (I think) so she and the fairies can “make their final preparations” before the curse is upon them. I would like to believe that this line was purposely included as part of the plot and not just a bit of filler.

ParticipantWhat happened to the lost boys when the curse hit??? Were they all from the Enchanted Forest?
Agree with other posters why did Rumple believe so strongly that the only way to kill Pan was to sacrifice himself? Was this ever clearly explained?

ParticipantMonica: So excited for Rebecca Mader on Once Upon a Time! Can you spill anything on what she’s playing?
She’s one of the best female villians of all time, and not just in recent Disney history. This one even has her own theme music! Also, we can tell you that she is being brought in because now that Rumple and Regina have made peace, the writers felt they needed a new Big Bad and Mader’s character will definitely be at odds with Regina. We will hopefully have your very first look at Mader’s character (the new villain) on the night of Dec. 15 on E! Online, right after the episode of Once Upon a Time ends, so make sure you check back!From Watch With Kristin E! Online
villains with theme music:
- Mad Madam Mim
- The Wicked Witch of the West
- Cruella Deville
I think Mim or Cruella would be great choices. They both have sass. Would be fun to see them verbally spar with Regina. I have to give it to Mim because I’ve never seen a villain have so much fun practicing magic before. She’s not really broody or angry, just kind of like that mean teasy kid on the playground who won’t stop poking you.
I haven’t seen a ruby slipper tweet yet. I’ll be on the lookout for that!

ParticipantLikes:
Charming was very charming in this epi
That oh snap moment between Regina and Mother Superior/Blue Fairy
Tinkerbell has Hook figured out and she lets him know it
Emma’s tiny jealous moment
Grumpy supporting Snow
Peter’s ability to ascertain information in order to manipulate others. He works quickly.
I like that the curse came back into play. I’m wondering who possesses the heart of the thing/person Peter loves the most? (although he seems to love himself the most). They’re in deep doo-doo.
Dislikes:
Jeremy Gilmore as Pan
Robbie Kay as Henry (sad but true)
Ariel’s thrown together romance with Eric.
Killing off Mother Superior? A character who was once sold to us as the original and most powerful magical being?
Did NOT like the way Mother Superior/Blue spoke to Tinkerbell.
I don’t like the way the neal/emma storyline is being written. I want to like these 2 characters together but its just all botched. He doesn’t try very hard with her.
