Jane honestly hasn’t ALWAYS written amazing episodes. Both “That Still Small Voice” and especially “In The Name of the Brother” were rather weak.

Final live and DVR numbers for Sunday’s “Selfless, Brave, and True”
We went up to 7.38 million viewers and a ratings share of 2.2
The numbers from this week and last week live/next day are very similar meaning we didn’t drop has hard as previous thought. The live+7 for S,B, and T will be out twoish weeks from now and that should see us get up to about 9-10 million.Our initial panic/stress was warrented (we all want the numbers to be up) but we’re still doing very well.
I think that’s where we’re gonna be for the rest of the year we’ll probably have a strong showing for the finale but I think we’ll be about 2.2-2.4 then 3.2-3.4 DVR
Well the major cable competition, especially the Bible, will be done by the time Once returns from its hiatus. Plus, the hype for the end of the Season will hopefully gain viewers’ attentions.
If there is a timeskip or Pinocchio rapidly ages again, we would then see August fully grown again. Perhaps for at least the series finale. Of course, August wouldn’t have memories of his past life and I’m sure there would be some differences in personality.

His magic was sort of separate from magic contained in SB by the curse. It affected him when he was clear on the other side of the world. Also, objects containing magic retain it when crossing the town line, (like the shawl, and Hook’s ship) and at that point, August was more object than human.
Yep, and that’s also why August started turning back into wood both in Phuket and in Pre-Magic Storybrooke. Though I wonder why only his one leg was wooden for the longest time, while in the last few episodes of Season 1 the rest of him rapidly changes to wood within a short period of time?
While I am in the Team that believes Tamara is legitimately not from FTL, I think we can rule out that she’s Tink or any character from Neverland. Neal would have recognized her and I don’t think they would EVER make someone like Tink as evil as her. Tink might be a little devious and jealous at times, but she’s not evil.

I thought it was confirmed by the writers that Henry is the boy the seer prophesised about?
Tamara has to have some form of relationship with magic, enough to believe that it is real and exists in a world that considers it to be fiction. Why else would she travel round the world trying to find it?
I think her grandmother is significant somehow because of the picture of Tamara with her grandmother. With all the teases we’ve had about Oz this season, I wonder if Tamara’s grandmother may have some connection to Oz. Perhaps as Dorothy or maybe even one of the wicked witches who could have been banished?
Well, there actually are people in are world who believe in magic, but that’s a discussion in itself. There are people who take fascination with the idea of the unusual all of the time, especially in TV/Film. I don’t think that means she HAS to be someone from the EF or anything. Tamara could have ties to a secret government agency or some sort of paranormal investigation. That would certainly explain why she would have the technology available to study the vial. Maybe we will get some more insight once we get some backstory behind how Tamara and Greg know each other. They might have met as kids or in school, and Greg likely told her about Storybrooke.
I still think Tamara is actually someone from this world. She seeks magic because she’s either power hungry or is looking for a magical cure to some hidden motive. She doesn’t have to be any secret FTL character with a complicated backstory, and I’m personally finding that twist to be overused. Someone who is legitimately from our world with an obsession with magic sounds much more fascinating, in my opinion. She adds something new.
I think Selfless, Brave and True’s low ratings were likely the result of just being a poorly received episode. People probably lost interest and decided not to finish watching it. I could blame Palm Sunday, which sounds like a pretty lame fan excuse, but who knows.
On the bright side, DVR ratings are in for “The Miller’s Daughter.” It got an increase to a 3.4 ratings share and 10.2 million total viewers:

TAKE A LOOK BACK AT HOW THE RESIDENTS OF STORYBROOKE HAVE FARED SINCE THEIR FAIRYTALE MEMORIES HAVE BEEN RESTORED, ON THE RETROSPECTIVE “ONCE UPON A TIME: THE PRICE OF MAGIC,” SUNDAY, APRIL 14 ON ABC
Series Creators/Executive Producers Eddy Kitsis and Adam Horowitz to
Offer Some Inside Scoop on What’s Transpired and What’s to ComeABC invites new and avid “Once Upon a Time” viewers to take a look at one of the most talked about and critically acclaimed shows. “Once Upon a Time: The Price of Magic” will explore the series in a way that will bring new viewers up to date — but which current viewers will also find illuminating – in discovering the consequences the residents of Storybrooke have had to endure since magic was introduced into the town, and whether Mary Margaret’s path has been tainted since learning that her heart has been darkened after she killed Regina’s mother, Cora. Series creators and executive producers Eddy Kitsis and Adam Horowitz will provide some inside scoop on the importance of family, the characters’ journeys and the mythology of the show. They will also tease what’s upcoming in the exciting final four episodes of the season. “Once Upon a Time: The Price of Magic” airs SUNDAY, APRIL 14 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.
Nothing is more important than family, and this season has shown just how close these bonds are, even between good and evil. Magic always comes with a price: the residents have come to discover just how true these words are ever since Mr. Gold introduced magic into Storybrooke when the curse was broken. Mary Margaret and Emma – mother and daughter reunited – were sucked into a portal that transported them to what was left of fairytale land. It was there that they met Mulan and Aurora, who helped them defeat Cora and Hook and enabled them to travel back to Storybrooke, reuniting them with Emma’s father David and son Henry. But Cora and Hook also found a portal into town, and Cora set her sights on reuniting with daughter Regina. She also tried to find Rumplestiltskin’s dagger in order to take him down and become The Dark One. Hook set his sights on killing Rumple, not for power but for revenge for killing his true love (and Rumple’s former wife), Milah. Mr. Gold also set out to find his son Bae, which he did with the aid of Emma and Henry in New York. But much to everyone’s shock, Bae turned out to be Emma’s former love, Neal, who is also Henry’s father. Upon returning to Storybrooke to find a cure for Mr. Gold, who was poisoned by Hook, Mary Margaret did something completely against her nature – she used dark magic to kill Cora – causing her heart to darken. And what plan does Greg Mendell, who has been recuperating in town since his car accident, have in store for the magical inhabitants of Storybrooke? Greg saw magic as a boy in the town and believes Regina may have killed his father. His price of magic may just be revenge.
