Participant-Emma and Prince Charming to bond together. We’ve already seen Emma bond with Henry and her mother. It would be great to see moments with her and her father together.
-Snow White and Prince Charming taking back the Kingdom. I’d like to see how they defeated Regina and took back the kingdom.
-How Henry got to Storybrooke.
-Grumpy and Nova to reunite.
-Abigail and Frederick to appear. And for them to be happy together.
-More back story on Prince Charming. We get so much on Regina and Snow White and the others, and yet we get little of Prince Charming’s. I’d like to see more of what he thought of his brother.
-Less backstory of Rumpelstiltskin. I know I’m in the minority here, but I am sick of seeing the show justify why Rumpelstiltskin is a coward or why he became the way he was.
-Less Regina backstory. Same reason for why I am sick of the Rumpelstiltskin story.
-Sneezy to regain his memories.
-More Mad Hatter.
-More Emma backstory.
-Emma and Neal to reunite.
-Prince Philip to come back.
-Mulan backstory.[adrotate group="5"]elle
ParticipantI didn’t really mean to be offensive–sorry. I do like both couples. 🙂
I really don’t like Regina’s redemption arc–I agree that it is going too fast, and it seems as though everyone is supposed to suddenly forget that she was the Evil Queen and that she did terrorize everyone.
I like that they have issues to work out with, and I get that is has to go through a good amount of episodes, but it is hard for me to be sympatheitc–a gooddeal of it is probably because I’m not a huge of Rumpelstiltskin.

ParticipantIt’s more than that–there is a level of understanding, trust, and support between Snow White and Prince Charming. They both know each other extremely well.
With Belle and Rumpelstiltskin, I don’t really get that. He keeps secrets and lies and doesn’t really seem to make much of an effort to change–I guess he has a bit, but he seems to quickly fall of the wagon each time. And Belle seems to be (and I do like Belle, just to add quickly) woefully naive about him. like her conversation with him at Granny’s during their date–she said it took her a long time to get to know him and that the town will eventually. Does she even know what he has done? That the town knows him pretty well already.
And how were Snow White and Prince Charming’s issues simple to overcome? They had Regina constantly trying to kill them/split them apart with the curse.

ParticipantYou cannot fight a wraith–there was nothing Mulan could have really done. She offered to take Prince Philip’s place, but he refused.
And Mulan has already proved herself well–she twice managed to hold her own against Cora. Once in, Lady of the Lake, and the other in Queen of Hearts. She fought the zombies and was willing to climb up the beanstalk.

ParticipantAgain, Prince Charming and Snow White were cursed. 🙂 They were cursed to have their happy ending taken away, cursed to be apart. Plus, Regina meddled with the frame job–she worked hard to keep them apart. No one–no curse, really or anyone–is keeping Belle and Rumpelstiltskin apart.
Rumpelstiltskin keeps lying to Belle, or keeping secrets from her. Yes, he allowed her to hear the conversation with Regina, but I’m willing to bet there is much he has not told Belle–that he killed his wife, that he helped mold Regina, nor his conversation with Smee. And I’m sure there is more. And he keeps hurting others–his actions, what he does to people, that alone is enough to drive someone away.

ParticipantWe haven’t ever seen her fight, though. Why suddenly now? Also, Princess Aurora isn’t weak–she willingly went into the dreams to help everyone, stood up to Cora, saved Mulan from getting killed by Snow White, and now is willing to look for a way to save Philip. So I don’t see how she is weak.
Anyway, Belle is someone that always wanted to see the world, to experience adventure. I think her aid will be a different kind of support ofr Mulan than what Princess Aurora offered. But I’ve yet to have see her fight since her release–she had been kidnapped by Smee, dragged away by him after her confrontation with her father, and then chained to a cart.

ParticipantShoot—just realized I didn’t have to put a spoil sign. My bad!!
elle
ParticipantThe Snowing drama was more forgiveable–they were cursed, and Regina did her best to make sure they would stay apart. That was pretty much one of the reasons why I never really minded it. 🙂 And I admire them for how hard they both work on their relationship.
With Rumbelle, it seems to be Rumpelstitltskin that is the problem–sorry if this offends people that like him a lot. I really like him, too. I’m just sick of him doing the same mistakes over and over again, and getting all teary-eyed when Belle gets angry and depressed over it.
With the test subject, I don’t quite seeing Rumpelstiltskin using Belle’s father–even he surely can’t be that insensitive as to use her own father. I think he’ll use Smee or Captain Hook–I go more for Captain Hook since next episode, Dr. Whale is treating an injury of his.
I think it could be that Belle will learn about Milah. That would certainly make her question her relationship.
To be honest, I’m more interested in the new stranger and Victor’s story for this episode.

ParticipantThis episode sounds awesome!! 🙂 🙂 🙂 🙂
I also think the unwilling test subject is going to be Smee, too. since he is probably still tied up in the basement and all, it makes sense. I can’t see him suddenly getting Moe French–as angry as Belle is of her father (and she has every right to be) I don’t think she would be happy with Rumpelstiltskin for using her father like that.
I also don’t imagine seeing Belle suddenly with a sword. If she could fight, why haven’t we seen her fight yet when she got kidnapped with Smee? I see her role as being something similar like Princess Aurora–she’ll follow Mulan and offer support. The two may talk about something they have in common–lost love? Feeling abandoned? Sacrifice?
I’m probably one of the few people that actually enjoy Mulan’s character. I realy like her loyalty, strength, determination, and friendship with Princess Aurora.
It is about time Snow White and Prince Charming got their own place–I love that the whole charming family is back together, but either they need a bigger house for all of them, or the grandparents need to get their own house for more room.

ParticipantThis is a lot of fun. 🙂
1). Belle vs Cinderella–gonna have to give it to Belle. She seems to be much more braver and stronger in personality. While I did admire Cinderella’s struggle to keep her child in Storybrooke, her complaints in Skin Deep made it pretty clear that she cannot fully make it on her own in forced to. Belle not only willingly sacrificed herself for her village, but she was willing to tell her True Love how wrong she thought he was. She stood up to him instead of letting him take care of her.
2). Neal/possibly Bae vs Prince Charming–Prince Charming. The guy has more experience with a sword and with a gun–the scene where he pointed one at King George comes to mind. 🙂 Physically he is not only in shape but strong–the only person that seemed stronger than him with a sword (so far, though we still have Emma and Captain Hook as well) was Rumpelstiltskin, and the latter probably used more magic for that fight. Plus, Prince Charming is a father. I think he has some idea of the pain Emma went–they probably will be talking a bit more and he’ll learn more about her. I have no doubt that he’ll be angry at Neal at first.
3). Snow White vs Blue Fairy–gonna go with Snow White on this one. That Blue Fairy does not have her magic at the moment, nor does she have much experience with a sword. Snow White is a woman that was forced to go from princess to bandit. She fought trolls, ogres, and even Cora, and still managed to hold her own. She is determined and strong enough to go against anyone. 🙂
4). Regina vs Cora–Cora. Hands down. Regina has never ben really stable mentally. She attacks out of anger, spite, and jealousy. Cora is more manipulative and calculating. And she knows Regina–she knows which buttons to push, not to mention her knowledge of magic probably overshadows Regina’s by a good amount, I think.
5). Rumpelstiltskin vs Hook–this one is difficult. On one hand, I think that Rumpelstiltskin’s magic would give him the upper edge, but on the other hand, we don’t really know what Captain Hook has up his sleeve. but I’m gonna go with Rumpelstiltskin–I know Captain Hook is manipulative and a good schemer, but Rumpelstitlskin is not only more powerful, but I think he may actually have a few allies on his side.
6). August vs Jefferson–Jefferson! No doubt! The guy has been making hats for close to thirty years, he worked closely with Rumpelstiltskin and Regina. He has traveled numerous worlds and had been in trouble with the law–We Are Both mentions this. I think he can hold his own against August, who doesn’t seem to have much experience.
7). Red Riding Hood vs Mulan–This one is a tie. On one hand, Red Riding Hood is a wolf, and he can easily tear anyone apart. One the other hand, Mulan has been a warrior all her life. She also managed to hold her own against Cora. She fought beside Prince Philip for years. Gonna have to go with a tie.
8). Granny vs Gepetto–Granny! 🙂 This woman has fought werewolves, soldiers, and who knows who or what else with that crossbow of hers. She doesn’t at all seem afraid of either Rumpelstiltskin or Regina. Gepetto dosn’t seem to be a fighter–more of an inventor.
9). PrincessAurora vs Nova–Princess Aurora. 🙂 Despite what others think, I find her to be strong, determined, smart, and loyal. She willingly went into the scorching dreams for Snow white and Emma. She stood up to Cora and refused to accept any deal with her, and she willingly let herself be tied up so that she would not harm the others. Nova is cute and nice and strong in her own way, but I don’t think she has much experience. 🙂
10). Emma Vs. Neal–Emma! She spent time in jail, traveled to different states, worked as a bailbondsperson, quickly learned how to us a sword, knows how to use a gun, can fight dirty is she needs to, and has magic. I love Neal, but I doubt he would stand a chance. 🙂
11). Emma Vs. Granny–Gonna go with Emma. She has gained a lot of skills since her stay in Fairytale Land. 🙂
12). Grumpy vs Whale–Grumpy. With just his bare hands he could beat Doctor. Whale into a pulp. With his axe he could shatter all his bones. 🙂 Plus, Dr. Whale has never really seemed strong physically, nor does he have any magic.
13). Emma Vs. Regina–A while ago I would have said Regina, since she has magic and all. Now that Emma herself has magic, and shehas learned how to fght like her father, plus her experience before she came to Storybrooke, I’d say they may be close to a tie. Since Emma doesn’t fully know how to use her powers and all, she still is at a disadvantage.
14). Phillip vs Thomas–Prince Philip. The guy had been fighting for years. He seems experience with a sword, and Mulan respected him and a warrior (as well as being romantically attached). Prince Thomas didn’t seem to be a fighter. He went to Prince Charming with his problem. Nor do I remember him even carrying a weapon with him.
