To save his home from the Ogre War, Sir Maurice seeks the aid of Rumplestiltskin. The two strike a deal; Rumplestiltskin will end the war in exchange for Maurice’s daughter; Belle. The girl complies and spends an unknown, significant amount of time as a caretaker for Rumplestiltskin’s Dark Castle. (“Skin Deep”)
A thief breaks into Rumplestiltskin’s Dark Castle to steal a magic wand soon after Belle’s arrival there. Rumplestiltskin easily subdues the thief and puts him in the dungeon to be tortured and killed. Belle frees the thief after her efforts to appeal to her master’s graces are unsuccessful. Enraged, Rumplestiltskin demands she learn a lesson by accompanying him as he finds and kills the thief. They find him in Sherwood Forest, where the Sheriff of Nottingham tells them the thief’s name is Robin Hood. Rumplestiltskin rebuffs Belle’s efforts to convince him not to kill Robin Hood but is finally pacified when he sees that Robin Hood stole the wand to heal the pregnant mother of his child. Leaving a child fatherless is one thing he is reluctant to do, so he shoots an arrow near Robin Hood and mutters that he missed. Back at the castle, Rumplestiltskin gives Belle access to his large library, but saves face by saying he is only doing so because he wants it to be clean. (“Lacey”)
Rumplestiltskin arranges to have Prince Charming take on his recently deceased brother’s identity (which he gave to King George earlier for an unknown price) so he may fulfill George’s agreement with King Midas to kill a dragon. In exchange for providing Prince Charming, King George tells Rumplestiltskin the location of the Fairy Godmother. Prince Charming succeeds, and is then coerced into an engagement with Midas’s daughter Abigail. Prince Charming says goodbye to his mother, and is given her engagement ring as a parting marriage gift. (“The Shepherd”)
Fast forward
This is the estimated time of Cinderella’s deal with Rumplestiltskin. Rumplestiltskin uses his newfound information from King George to track down the Fairy Godmother who arrives to see a Cinderella in rags and promises to make her dreams come true. When she is about to grant Cinderella’s wishes, Rumplestiltskin kills her and takes her wand. Cinderella begs that he help her get out of the servant’s life she is living. She promises to give him anything, so he agrees. He magically produces a blue gown and glass slippers and sends her to the ball. (“The Price of Gold”)
I guess what I am trying to say according to this article is that the Wand came from someone else it couldn’t have been the Fairy God Mother that Gold killed. So do you agree then that we don’t know who Wand this is then according to this article that Robin Hood took:?: It looks to be me he has two now but I could be wrong. 😕

Got the new Entertainment Weekly yesterday and there was a tiny blurb on the Once finale in their Must Watch section. I don’t have the quote in front of me, but they spoiled that the fail safe will be used/detonated.
Yes, thanks for sharing!!!!

I swear H and K talked about that in a recent podcast. I’m trying to recall which one, but they said something like:
We don’t know where Thomas went in FTL but he and Ella were kept apart until Rumple got what he wanted in SB, which was the deal with Emma (which was of course to find his child, which was similar to his deal with Ella). So until Rumple got what he wanted Ella and Thomas were separated.So Thomas broke a deal with Rumple but is alive to tell about it then huh ❓

I believe that the element of power the portal lacked was whatever gave it direction. So having the compass added that necessary ingredient to completely power the portal. If you jumped into it without the compass, it wouldn’t have the power to know where you wanted to go and you could have ended up anywhere, or maybe just stuck in a neverending portal that couldn’t actually send you to an actual destination.
What if they would have said Storybrook or used Gold’s real name kind of like the bean thing.
Also, what happened to Cinderella’s Prince did he go down to the well too? All at once he is SB strange.

This is what I meant on creating the timeline in a story format:

This is so much easier to understand in my opinion 🙂
Note: It looks like this person put Robin Hood before the fairy God mother that was killed I guess they don’t know who the wand belongs to either.
Did you see where they put this in their timeland ❓
Cora stated to Hook, don’t let go as you don’t know where you will end up so if since Regina was lost rom Cora it wouldn’t really have matter to let go of the compass if what you are saying then right? ❓ Because without the compass they didn’t know where they would end up, the water was just a tool for the ashes in my opinion.
Remember Gold needed water to activate his potion, and Cora needed water to activate the ashes or restore in her case because the ashes were enchanted and Snow didn’t give Emma a compass when she sent Emma through so I just can’t by the water from this Lake to SB to restore the memories but of course I could be wrong. 😕
I’m going to play around with this idea because HappyEndings is right that the lake was dried up in Lady of the Lake after the Siren died. But the water was still there somehow/somewhere because Cora activated it and Rumple was able to use it to bring magic
That is because of the potion that he had mixed with water made magic.
Again, why did they need the Compass to return to Storybrook ❓

I like the bridge/plugged conduit idea but initially I thought that what Cora did was to make the last tiny drop, stuck in another shell perhaps, multiply itself into a lake. Changing the size of something is associated in a way with Wonderland (small drop to big lake maybe?). I don’t think she could open portals so easily even to call the lake back from other mystical waters.
Does that mean the Siren comes back too?
Good point KF!!!
Also, Gold asked Cora if she knew away to bring back memories and she said no.
I wonder if this is where Emma comes in with her magic for Sneezy, and Belle ❓
The home office: It turns out, Tamara and Greg have actually been hired by some entity, which will be revealed during the final hours. “You will find out who the home office is, you will find out what they want, but you won’t know why they want it,” Kitsis teases. Horowitz adds: “In bringing in Greg and Tamara, who are characters who we have established and shown to be real world characters, that was our way of saying, ‘What starts to happen when the real world gets connected to Storybrooke and the magic there?
