I think Emma cared for Graham, trusted him, and understood what he went through–not the magic part, of course. 🙂 But there was a form of trust and friendship between the two of them, and Emma kissing Graham, I think, was her way of opening up to him and showing that she understands the need to feel. I never really had the idea that they were in love with each other.

No prob! 😀
There is something that I have been trying to picture in my head–when Neal/Baelfire?/Whomever his Counterpart is? got the postcard, he looked both shocked and afraid. There is obviously some guilt to how he handled things with Emma, but will he be able to explain everything to Emma? How will Henry react to him? If he is the son of Rumpelstiltskin, will he try to be forgiving, or will he be more angry at how he treated Emma and Henry. Granted Rumpelstiltskin was not cruel, but he was manipulative, and he did trick Emma into giving him the love potion and made her think Henry was dead.
And then there will be an issue with the whole Charming family as well, and how he will react to them and they to him. 🙂

We all get into fandom at times, and we all cannot help but get passionate. Many a times I had been tempted to do the same.
He did take the money. The writers confirmed it. 🙂 The look on his face when he took the money confirms it, the fact that all Emma got was the keys and the car, and the fact that the address was from Phuket.
I agree. He really and truly crushed Emma. He grew up in a home, he knows how hard life is there for many–granted we do not know how long he spent in the home, though we can guess it was enough time. Long enough for him to know that Emma was have been sad, angered, lonely, and wanting a family of her own. And he ripped that away from her it the harshest way possible–he broke his promise to look after her, took the money, and left Emma once again to be alone and without a friend in the world to show her care and understanding. 🙂

If he really, truly is Baelfire, then I have to agree with you. Just don’t want to believe until it is stated. 🙂 But this is a whole level for him–he was forced to let the woman he loves go, to leave her behind. He must feel like a coward–he wasn’t there for her, to protect her, to stand by her side, to give her everything he promised. And when he learns of Henry, of how August/Pinocchio broke his promise, of the numerous times emma’s life had been endangered, it will be even worse for him, and for all of them.
I agree–he kept the money. the podcast confirmed it, and Jane Espenson confirmed it in an interview. 🙂 And it was pretty clear from his expression that he was going to keep the money and run off to pleasure island.

Emma gave birth in jail–it was posted in the Storybrooke Mirror. 🙂 And Regina told Emma in the first episode that Henry was 3 weeks old when she adopted him, so it is safe to be sure that Emma gave Henry up for adoption while she was in jail. 🙂
Also, I agree that Emma loved Neil, and I think she still does. She not only kept the car, but made the keychain he gave her into a necklace, and she seems to truly love and miss him, though I am sure she also has resentment towards him as well, of course.
I do agree–he was wrong to spilt them apart the way he did. His actions were what made it hard for Emma to believe anything he said about the curse. Also, she probably would have needed that money. He didn’t have to give it to her right away–send the money to her after she got released from jail. That way, no suspicion would be drawn, or contant her during her stay in jail and talk to her so that she would (to an extent) trust him.
However, I am open to hearing Pinocchio’s side of the story–there will be an episode for him, so we may find out everything. 🙂
I think this episode is one of my favorites. 😀
The best scenes were with Neal and Emma–both actors really sold it, and I loved their interections together. It was a wonderful surprise to see how great of a person Neal (whomever his counterpart may be, if he has a counterpart) is, and how he was willing to wait for Emma for twenty-eight years. 🙂 I honestly think this couple is special–both are willing to do anything for the other, and both have suffered so much. Also, I liked Princess Aurora and Snow White bonding–it was done well, and really helps show how close both the princess and the queen are becoming.
Captain Hook was a lot fun, though I really don’t buy into him actually caring for Emma. He seems to really love Milah–the tattoo of her, his reluctance to speak of her, and the dark, angry look on his face everytime she is brought up shows how committed he is to avenging her.+
I thought August/Pinocchio was horrible to both Emma and Neal. I get that he was trying to keep Emma away from a criminal life, but the way he went about it was just wrong. And he ditched keeping track of Emma once again to go and enjoy himself.
My only complaint on this episode was the special effects with the giant.
