Yeah, I just rewatched too. I think the misleading thing was “something new, to go with something borrowed.” That, combined with the fact that she draws it out of the air behind the dress, probably put the suggestion in our minds that she made it.

And there’s also the timeline issue of how did it get into Gerda’s stuff if they were on the mission to get it when they died. But I -think- that we’re going to find that was a thing that happened before their death somehow.

1. Rumple fished it out of the fireplace when he grabbed the urn. He knows better than to waste something valuable. It came along with most of his collection to his shop during the curses, presumably.

2. That’s what I remember, too, but she claims here that it was among their parents’ things. But that DOES confuse me with this timeline. Why do I think we’re going to see more of what their parents were doing?

I’m still hoping (I owe Snow a quarter) Neal will ultimately NOT be the exception…but I know it’s unlikely.

There was, but he let Ariel jump off the ship fast enough she could have saved BB. It was retconnish…but in a way that I’m hoping will spark awesome plots, pirate battles, and more of the JR in the future. I love that ship.

I loved this episode. Just gonna lay that out there.

So things that I liked a lot:
–Belle DOING STUFF and SAYING THINGS. OMG. I missed you so much.
–Rumple deciding to save Belle AND Henry. I knew he’d protect Belle…the grandpastiltskin feels when he asked for Henry too, though, mmm.
–Hans vs Kristoff. I could seriously watch those two argue for a few months. Can we keep them?
–The reveal that Arendelle was frozen for 30 years BLEW MY MIND. I’m so glad I’m a little behind on the timeline right now because S4A is going to be a headache anyway, but…wow, I was not expecting that. Nor that Ariel saved BB (but YAY ARIEL!) and now we know where the JR is THIS VERY MINUTE. (I love the JR.)
–Rumple’s disgust for the fairies…consistent and beautifully played, of course.
–Will knows Roland! Yay!
–The spell of Shattered Sight is pretty. Some of the CGI worked better than other bits, but the cityscape scene of it falling was gorgeous.
–Hook actually apologizing while doing something horrible.
–We’re gonna find out if anyone can escape the hat now…cuz if anyone can, it’s Blue.
–Magic that feels consistent with other magic–the SoSS acting like the Dark Curse, the locator spell like Rumple gave David, the antidote being like the one they used to cure Sneezy & Belle in S2. Sometimes this show feels like it’s coming up with whatever and there are no rules, so when they introduce stuff that is a callback like that, it makes the world feel more internally consistent.
–Hook calling Rumple on the fact he’s going to have to choose between Power and Belle’s eternal love at some point. And recognizing Belle’s love for him.

Less liked:
–Maybe a bit too much time in the chest…it was awkward in there.
–How the heck does BB know exactly where Gerda died? It was a storm.
–Robin Hood still not caring in the slightest about his wife. Or Regina’s wishes.
–Rumple’s (believable, esp in light of his speech to Emma in 408) backsliding to not caring about anyone but himself and his own. It’s hard to watch him being cruel (but it always has been, since S1). Still…that’s part of what makes him HIM and what he has to grow out of to achieve happiness. So it’s just less liked here because it’s painful, not because I didn’t expect it (I didn’t even expect him to save Henry, really!) or think the show doesn’t need it to drive his current storyline.

Leroy calls all the ladies “sister.” And the plural of dwarf can correctly be dwarfs or dwarves–depends on your canon as to which is preferred. Dwarfs is how it was spelled in Disney’s animated feature.

You actually believe he’d ditch Belle? Seriously?

Prediction: Belle will try to get him to rescue the rest of the town.
