ParticipantThe ambiance line seems to tie things back to Lacey somehow for me, but maybe it’s meaningless.
Anyway, if he’s suggesting Robin should do it for a girl, that would say it has to happen before he’s married to Marian–though perhaps after they met, given that he’s “reformed” here. That’s my guess on the timeline.

ParticipantThe gauntlet was THE worst plot device in a show that’s become chock full of them.
What made it the worst was that Hook, Anna, and Emma ALL had ways to confirm Belle’s growing suspicions (as we saw she had in 406). It would have been SO much more satisfying (and dramatic) to have Anna actually speak like three words to Belle before going through that door.

ParticipantI saw it today, too. Beautiful, but it lacked something. The Frozen short was worth the price of the ticket by itself though.

ParticipantPossibility 4, and where I think they’re going with it:
Rumple’s got a plan to turn her heart dark–but he has to do something to make it possible. The potential was there, but the sorcerer did remove the chance of it spawning on its own.

ParticipantI stand by my initial statement: He’s a hero when he follows his code. Whether he’s a villain when not, harder to say–we haven’t seen/heard quite enough of his past (pre-code) and only know of a few instances where he’s violated it.

ParticipantYou can twist it as much as you like, but the going back and forth was not fair to either Marian or Regina, let alone his son.
Presuming the Zelena bit is truly what happens/ed TLK not working sits better with me. BUT. RH had every reason to believe that his wife was alive, had declared repeatedly that he still considered himself married to her, and still chose to sleep with Regina while his wife was frozen-but-not-dead.
He said himself that he wasn’t abiding by his code when he went to Regina that night, BY DOING SO.
This isn’t just my perspective–it’s what Robin’s perspective is on what he’s doing in the moment. This is what they showed Robin Hood choosing to do.
They may yet spin it to be less horrible, and I’m starting to see how they might, but these are still things that RH did, just as much as the things that David did to hurt MM under the Curse.

ParticipantWe’ve seen RH in two flashbacks. In the first, he was played by Tom Ellis instead of Sean. That was 219: Lacey. RH stole a wand from Rumple to save Marian’s life, and Belle helped him escape Rumple’s wrath. Marian was pregnant with Roland at the time. We also met the Sheriff of Nottingham in that ep.
The second flashback we’ve seen RH in (besides those in the missing year, that is) is from Wonderland, I forget which episode. It was about Will stealing from Maleficent, and emphasized Robin’s code, which we also encountered in their brief scene together in 4A.

ParticipantI think Robin Hood is a hero, as long as he abides by his code…which he threw in the trash when he knowingly, intentionally cheated on his frozen wife with Regina.
But cheating in this show has never exactly been grounds for falling on one side or the other (see Snowing cheating on each other–though less knowingly–in S1).

ParticipantI’m looking forward to going to Oz again. And…maybe this will be the episode that they manage to half-redeem Robin for me. I really, really hated what they did to RH’s character in 4A. If they’re going to make him Regina’s end-game love interest, I’d like to see them make him a LITTLE less icky.
(They’ve done it before…so…I know they’re capable of changing my mind about a character.)
But Belle’s gonna be little more than a footnote again. Sigh.

ParticipantOooh! My mother ordered it for me (well, I ordered it cuz she doesn’t trust the internet…) for my birthday present. A month and a half late but who cares?
