ONCE - Once Upon a Time podcast
Reviews, theories, and talk about ABC's Once Upon a Time TV show
It was a pretty weird thing to lie about. That statement felt odd. I didn’t know what to make of it. The whole episode felt a little off like that though.
I had to dvd-r the episode since I didn’t get home in time, and I really thought I had accidently recorded the wrong episode for the first few minutes!
I dunno… You can be an evil person who does evil things and still care about your family at the same time. There are tons of real world examples where someone would go out and kill someone for their jobs then go home and generally love their wives and kids. People have this scary ability to comparmentalize their lives. The world isn’t divided up by evil people who are evil to everyone and good people who are good to everyone. I think Regina can be evil and love Henry at the same time.
Should he be raised by her? No way. Does she quite deserve the animosity he sends her way? Eh, I don’t know about that… I think his mistrust of her started when he began to notice that people around him were not aging and he was. If Regina didn’t have a very good explanation for that if he asked… or outright ignored it and made him feel crazy? I don’t blame him there.
I guess I just need a little more backstory before I can make a judgement on if Henry’s animosity towards Regina is justified or not.
I suppose she could end up being The Swan Princess someday considering her last name… Although that’s not her real last name now that I think about it.
I felt like the fantasy world was more interesting in the beginning, but I’m now way more interested in what is happening in Storybrooke. If season two opens on a enchanted forest scene I think I’ll be frustrated. Hopefully I won’t be tempted to fast forward it if that happens (I dvr the episodes)! lol
