    I like the idea that every potential world could exist, but we only actually know about five:
    1 – Fairytale Land (vast and diverse, containing maybe four disparate kingdoms – Regina’s, George’s, Henry Sr’s, and Mulan’s; and also possibly Camelot? Unless Camelot is its own world.)
    2 – Wonderland
    3 – Neverland
    4 – The Land Without Colour
    5 – And, of course, our world, the one without magic.

    I think it did win in Cora – she refused to let the good in her win by choosing power over love and ripping out her heart. That’s similar to the choice Rumpel made, but at least he’s trying to be good now; same with Regina.

    As much as I loved The Crocodile (and most of the other episodes), I picked The Doctor. Partly because I’ve recently read Frankenstein, and it was interesting to see how Once dealt with that tale; partly because I love Regina before she turned evil, and it was this one where we saw her go from Poor Desperate Regina to Evil Queen Regina; and mostly because I love the idea of Jefferson (especially the younger, carefree Jefferson), Victor, and Rumpel being best friends and getting up to mischief together.

    With Charming curing Snow’s forgetfulness potion, I always thought that happened because the second time he kissed her, she kissed him back. The first time, Charming basically assaulted her and she freaked out, but after he almost died to keep her from murder, she actually wanted to kiss him, so the True Love’s Kiss worked.

    You’re right though, it would be interesting to see George’s relationship with his wife 🙂

    Rumpel kept the hand, so I’m not sure Cora would be able to grow him a new one. Rumpel only reattached Whale’s arm, he didn’t grow a new one for him. But if the hook ever got replaced, we’d have to start calling him either “Killian” or “Prosthetic Hand”.

    He does have his cane. That would help a lot.

    2) George needed Rumple’s help because his minions could not legally get George’s wife pregnant and an heir to the throne. She was cursed to being barren. If an heir was not found or produced the kingdom will go to another royal family. His minions can’t be trusted to doing that word would go out that there was no heir. If you remember whenever he spoke to Rumple in detail in was just between the two of them and no one else; meaning no one “really knows” what the deal is but yet they do.

    That means that he was not his wife’s true love. It makes me wonder who was. That said it would be interesting to see their dynamic in their relationship. If there was underlying animosity I wonder if George’s wife purposefully made herself barren as a way of keeping true to her one true love (not having another man’s child) or ensuring that George not have his ancestry passed on as he would have to adopt a child into the royal family. If there are brothers and sisters it would interesting to meet them or learn about their existence and life (if he had any… if he was an only child he would be in quite the predicament).

    I think George’s wife probably was his true love – Snow and Charming’s true love kissing didn’t cure Snow, it was the water from Lake Nostos. I don’t think the curse George used on Snow is an actual curse; I think it was probably more like a poison, or maybe a magical poison.

    I like your sense of humour, medchen 😀 You should totally write a fic of that though, because that would be the ultimate crack.

    I love tiny references like this. They make my heart happy. Also, I may have set the broken clock in my house to 8:15 …

    1) A sass-off between Rumpel and Hook. Imagine the snark!!
    2) Neal’s reappearance.
    3) More Frankenstein (although I guess we'll get that in the episode that Gerhardt's in).
    4) MORE RUMBELLE.
