So is this for 522 and 23 or just 22?
The press site has these under 522, but it could be for both.
[adrotate group="5"]Does anyone know if the show is spelling it Robyn or Robin?
ABC’s official recap spells her name as “Robin”, so I think that’s it. The “Robyn” spelling seems like it’s just the fans way of differentiating between the two:

Hank Harris as the Groundsman, Arnold Pinnock as the Orderly, Sam Witwer as the Warden
As expected, it looks like Jacob and Nathaniel were purely casting call names. Which makes sense, cause we already know that it looks like they’re Jekyll and Hyde. However, they’re still trying to keep that a secret with these vague press release names.
LOL what??
SB has magic? No people in SB have magic
I think the logic is that magic needs to be in the environment for magical people to be able to use it. Back when SB didn’t have magic, Rumple nor Regina were able to use it. Regina could only create magic from magical objects like Daniel’s ring, so it was very limited.
Take it back! Penny Dreadful is one of the best things I’ve ever seen with heart, meaning, and development and real understanding of mythology and how to insert it organically into their story lines.
I agree. Just find it very odd how both shows are doing those specific things at the same time.
Probably! Well spotted. I wonder if they’ll call it Bedlam Hospital in honor of the very famous mental hospital (also known as Bethlehem)
Well, we already had Bethlem Asylum appear on OUATiW, so perhaps they’re one and the same?

Also, it seems like OUAT and Penny Dreadful are stealing ideas off each other this Season. Jekyll is in the currently airing Penny Dreadful Season 3, and his lab is in Bedlam Hospital.
Meghan Ory, MRJ, Michael Socha, and now Sean – four talented actors that have come out and said that their stories were ended abruptly/weren’t properly developed.
Don’t forget about Raphael Sbarge. He was actually a series regular back in Season 1, but got less and less screentime as the Season went on. Then he got demoted in Season 2. Though at least they never killed off Archie or Ruby, and they have both returned as guest stars since their demotions.
I am thinking of when Lilly jumped in front of Harry to save him from the death curse!!!
Amiright??? So, now I am wondering if Robin’s act of sacrifice has created some new magic, all it’s own???
But sadly, no one on this writing staff is JK. Jane Espenson is the best they’ve got, but I’m afraid she’s not enough anymore.
You never know, cause I can name a few other possible Harry Potter references in this episode. That scene with Hook and Arthur fending off that skeleton creature at the River of Lost Souls reminded me of when Harry and Dumbledore had to fend off against a bunch of Inferi. In a cave setting too, no less. Then the Hook and Zeus scene felt very much like the iconic Harry and Dumbledore “Kings Cross” scene.
For now, I will say I’m not sure that I like that Hades could be killed. Gods are supposed to be unkillable, or ridiculously hard to kill at the very least. A shiny crystal is really enough? I think I would have preferred for Zeus to appear and arrest his brother, rather than killing him. That way Zeus could have been more involved in the episode, and him and Hades would have shared screentime. Either way, Hades was my favorite part of this Season, and I’m going to miss having him around.
