I think the title refers to Henry, and also to why Peter Pan is looking specifically for him- that Pan is looking for the heart of the truest believer, namely the one who believes most strongly in magic.

This one is a Rumbelle it’s called Bed of Thorns 😀
Bed of Thorns is amazing. Seriously outstanding writing. And thanks, Steliokontos1 🙂

I wouldn’t worry about that too much, as long as the Blue Fairy always remain a very secondary character and doesn’t take the spotlight from the cast we really care about she can be as black and white as one can be. Her being regularly used as a Deus Ex Machina is far more annoying, both her roles, on or off-screen, in “Selfless, Brave and True” and “And Straight On Till Morning” are regarded as some of the worst writing for the season. Convenient appearances are convenient. 🙄
I have to agree about BF coming in to “save the day.”. As happy as I was to see our Belle return, It’s been bothering me more and more that it was too easily achieved. Here we were all speculating about Rumple having to earn Belle and having to do something to make Belle love him, but here Grumpy appears with a little blue bottle and all it took was the reincarnation of Chip, which I was also thrilled to see. Being glad to see certain things happen does not mean that we are happy with the way they happened. Thankful that RC and EdR acted the whatever out of that scene anyway, but still… 🙄
laurieanneParticipantHi Everyone –
I just posted my first Rumbelle fan fic. One hiatus goal completed! (Actually it’s still ongoing as it’s not finished yet!)
http://archiveofourown.org/works/819779/chapters/1552658laurieanneParticipantPriceofMagic, how do you come up with this stuff? I laugh out loud every time. Thanks again!!
laurieanneParticipantPriceofMagic, you get all the cookies! I was hoping there would be more posts in this thread (my favorite) and there were! I love them all. Grumpy’s comment about Rumple. Hook and the Floor. I just seriously wow.

laurieanneParticipantThis is great! Love the chat room idea! We’ll deal with it, no matter when you decide to do it so have at it! Best podcast and forums ever!
laurieanneParticipantI think Belle will find out that Neal is alive (NOT DEAD!) and will find a way to reunite Rumple and Neal. This will give her an awesome adventure and will also give her a chance to communicate some things about Rumple to Neal.
laurieanneParticipantLove everyone’s analysis so far!
Best Episode
And Straight on Till Morning
This episode had so much to offer every fan. We got to see a lot of back story, which was well done and engaging. The Rumbelle scenes were true to their characters and showed us that Rumple really did have a redemption arc this season. The way Emilie played the scene where she turned from Lacey to Belle was incredible. The writers gave us so much of what we were hoping to see – Emma calling Snow and Charming “mom” and “dad” and Henry turning to Regina, noticing that she was alone. That was amazing. And let us not forget the return of Chip! I have to also say that it was a pleasure seeing Colin act the whatever out of his scenes. He gave a finely nuanced performance and I have to say it’s about time that we got to see that! Loved seeing his eagerness to be a family with Bae.Runner Up
The Crocodile/i]
I absolutely love this episode and rewatch it often, in addition to Manhattan and Tallahassee, which are right up there in my opinion. Seeing RC go from pre-Dark One Rumple, to full-on Dark One to Mr. Gold just amazes me every time. And the introduction of the character of Hook, especially the moment when he puts on the Hook and says “Neverland!” That’s one of my favorite moments in the entire series. Again, we got to see a lot of backstory and explanation as well as setting up the revenge arc for Hook. The only thing I didn’t like was that Milah was such a one-dimensional character here regarding Rumple. We only get to see that she was once a loving person later in Manhattan.Worst Episode
In the Name of the Brother
I am so puzzled about the acting in the episode. Did anyone not realize that Victor’s father can’t act? I can’t get past that in a show that delivers stellar performances across the board. Someone really missed the mark here. I am also not a fan of the Frankenstein storyline. David Anders always does a great job, but I just don’t care about his back story that much, especially two episodes in the same season.Runner Up
Child of the Moon
Again, more backstory of a relatively minor character (although I love Red as a character). I think some characters do better relating to others and not having their own story line. I really enjoyed S1’s Red-Handed but thought this one was a little too wolf-centric and too violent. (Just re-read this and realized that Red killed Peter in RH so that was pretty violent too!) What it conveyed about Red/Ruby could have been condensed. Overall it is pretty hard to find episodes to call “worst” in a show I love so much. I have to give Honorable Mention to Tiny here because I hated the character of Jack so much. But the scenes with Anton in SB, the reveal of David’s name, and the scenes with the dwarfs redeemed it in my opinion. -
