Hey!! quit stealing my points 😉

I think the show is gonna ultimately establish magic as a bad thing regardless of how it is used – It always comes with a price! Right !!
It’s used as a crutch for cowardice. Example: It’s Rumples crutch when he doesn’t use his real one- Think of the scene with Hook and Rumple, I don’t remember the exact words but it went something like this-Hook “What kind of magic trick is going to save you now ?” Rumple pick up his cane/crutch and swings it right in Hooks face-

Very similar stories. They both come from worlds away from the humans: Ariel from under the sea- Tiny from up in the sky. They both recieve a ‘gift’ that enables them to live inthe human world, from someone they presume are trying to help them: Ariel, human legs from Ursula- Tiny, human seize from Jack and James..
Any other similarities ?

…maybe he will be one of those people who are able to change their stars. This may have been foreshadowed last session when he tore the ending out of the book.

I like that. Henry as someone who can change fate. Change The Seers predictions of what will be.

A thing that might be nothing, but always lurkes in my mind when theorising about the possible evil of Blue: Is this menacing image of a blue star hovering over fairytaleland, you know in technical terms a blue star is a dead star that is about to blow up- Now, I think the blue glowing ring with a clock in the middle, in Granny’s dinner, is a symbolic image of the Blue fairy hovering like that over “Storybrook”-(or the inhabitants of Storybrook) It’s a blue shiny ring- hence, blue star. And think about the wallpaper in the dinner- it is a forest (sorry if I could figure out how I would post the image here 🙄 ) That it is a clock in the middle is ofcourse symbolic of time having a big importence somehow, like time ticking away closer and closer towards an unavoidable fate.

That would be good tv-

As for Henry–perhaps he has magic like Emma? Oooh–since the Queen had to kill “the thing she loved most”=Henry Sr., to enact the curse, perhaps young Henry must be sacrificed to undo it? After all, if the curse had never happened, Henry never would have come into existence. Then again, I can’t see Disney killing off a kid–so maybe he’s the “key” in some other way?.

Wait, you’ve lost me here, doesn’t Emma already broke the curse? So why Henry should be sacrificed to undo it?

Although they are not really free in our world yet are they ? they are still trapped in Storybrook. So maybe the curse has not been completely broken yet..

… many young teen girls who are watching this show who like Hook because they think he is, as you say ‘sexy’…

I suggest sending them all packing to Ireland to hook their own Irishman 😆

There are only small fish in those waters 😉
Anyway to get a pirat fish is too easy, just show them a bit of flesh and they’re hooked.

Not really sure why you couldn’t answer the question. It was basically a yes or no.

Your horse analogy is poor for horses do not have conscious choice. Regina isn’t an animal that will blindly follow whatever she desires.

Never suggested that Emma wasn’t giving Regina a chance. I said how the kid shouldn’t be with Regina unsupervised. Which he hasn’t been since Emma got back into town. Smart woman.

You think that Henry not being with Regina, for whatever reason, is wrong. Right? OK. I disagree. There.

You clearly don’t get it 🙄
It’s okay if you don’t agree, lets leave it at that then.

My Gosh Schmack! you are killing me here !! I couldn’t stay away from commenting 😆
It is the same Question I’ve been answering all along, or tried to answer.

Let’s take Regina point of view out of it for a sec. And look at it from Emma’s angle. She does, sometimes, want Regina to be good and believe she can change.

-So belief and motivation is there, for Emma to act with.

-We already established that Emmas actions will influence Reginas

-So can we agree that she would then want to act accordingly, for that change to happen ?

Then what does Emma do?- She takes away Reginas sole motivation to change for the better- Erm! Wrong thing to do. Because If your horse only follows you, when you hold out an apple in front of it- you don’t throw the apple away- because then your horse don’t follow you…. Ergo- Throwing away the apple, would be the WRONG thing to do, if you want your horse to follow you.

And I don’t agree that Regina is a danger to Henry, neither do I believe that Emma is completely convinced of that, she might not be convinced of the opposide either. But she was willing to give Regina a chance before ‘the Cricket insident’ hopefully she will come back to that-maybe she is already, but Regina doesn’t know that right now.
