Ratings are in for episode 6×04 “Strange Case”
Demo: 1.1
Live Eyeballs: 3.48 million
And I think we’ll get a boost again next week due to the big hyped up Aladdin and Jasmine episode.

So, I get the impression that this Mary character, seen as Jekyll’s romantic partner in one of the sneak peeks, is based on the character Mary Reilly from the novel of the same name: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Reilly_(novel). In short, it’s a re-telling of Jekyll and Hyde via the perspective of Jekyll’s maid, Mary. She falls in love with Jekyll.
There was even a movie adaptation starring Julia Roberts: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mary_Reilly_(film)
If Jekyll and Hyde do get killed off in this episode, that would honestly be in line with the ending of the novella and film adaptations. It’s not a story that is known for having a happy ending.
I actually think this is what is going to happen now. It’ll be split seasons in all but storytelling.
There’s been a rumor going around on the SpoilerTV’ comments section that ABC is thinking of bringing back Quantico in January, but withholding OUAT till March. Not sure how much sense it would be to only air one show for all of January and February on Sundays. There’s also no bridge show announced to air in OUAT’s place like there was with Galavant.
Last year we got the ABC midseason premiere dates on November 16th, so I guess we’ll know for sure what is going on with OUAT’s scheduling within a month: http://www.ew.com/article/2015/11/16/abc-midseason-dates
This episode could be named after the Pink Floyd song of the same name. Wouldn’t surprise me, since Adam and Eddy are fans of music from that era.
Now Futon Critic, Zap2It, and TV Guide have updated to list “Street Rats” as the title. Guessing Adam informed ABC, and they corrected their mistake. Real test will be if the press release has the right title.
I think the title could be referring to a few possibilities:
1) Robin Hood’s return. We’ve known for a while, and he’s supposed to be returning for multiple episodes. Adam and Eddy even recently confirmed that it won’t be just flashbacks.
2) August is also returning, so maybe the title is somewhat related to him? “Wish You Were Here” could be some sort of reference to “When You Wish Upon a Star”, the title song from Pinocchio.
3) It could also be Aladdin related, since his story involves a genie, and genies grant wishes.
