ONCE - Once Upon a Time podcast
Reviews, theories, and talk about ABC's Once Upon a Time TV show
Welcome to the forums, Stacy! How does your daughter enjoy the show? Sounds like ABC is succeeding in appealing to families.
I think doxcen and hjbau both have excellent theories!
My one issue with the recipe for the dark curse is where this falls in the timeline. We don’t know how much time is between Snow and James first meeting and the curse. We do know that the Magic Mirror knows that Evil Queen traded the dark curse wi Maleficent for the sleeping curse. This would mean a fast passing of events for Rumplestiltskin to make the dark curse, give it to EQ (or it be stolen?), EQ to trade with Maleficent, and Maleficent have some personal experience with it, and EQ to get it back.
It could all happen within the time we have left, but that would be tight. I doubt we’ll see Sleeping Beauty this season, so we may not see Maleficent, either.
I was thinking Regina, too. But now, I’m thinking that Henry is a great suspect, too.
Interesting megaphone theory! I had thought they made Jiminy speak in “Heart of Darkness” just for the sake of flow and simplicity.
Thanks for starting this great conversation! I don’t think Regina is single-season character.
I think one more character will fully remember FTL, and it looks like that could be David.
But I don’t think Emma will believe this season.
Great ideas!
By the time of the council, Pinocchio was already a real boy. But I didn’t see the badge. I’ll look for it when we rewatch “Heart of Darkness.”
Maybe I should make a listener map that will allow forum members to state their city (or closest major city) in their profiles and I’ll plug it into Google Maps.
Remember that Maleficent said the curse would, “leave a void that can never be filled.” (By the way, how did she know is so intimately?) It reminds me a little of the Count of Monte Cristo where he gets some people to ruin themselves.
I also think that Rumplestiltskin has a back door, since he was the one who we think created the curse.
Just added those sections.
