    My own is Evil Queen Regina.

    First of all because she is ‘The Evil Queen’ and that makes for some wonderful both funny and thrill evoking scenes. Plus you get to feel a little bit bad when you side with her 😈
    She is played enormously well by the actress Lana Parrilla, there must be an Emmy coming her way. ➡
    I’ve always had a tendency to side with the evil villain, especially in fairytales because everyone else is against them, no wonder they go bad. 🙄

    And then because her story is actually a very sad story. We see now that we have gotten to know it better.
    She’s always only had bad influences around her, she makes the wrong choices yes, but no wonder when that is the only way she’s ever seen it done. There is no one there to be her little cricket on the shoulder and show her a different way. She has no family to always find her when she is lost in the woods, like all the others do. I’m conflicted because I do want someone to help her, maybe Henry will be her cricket there is already signs of that happening, but I also think it is in a way a beautiful story, that no one around her notice how tragic it is maybe not till it’s too late. Though that makes her break one more heart and that’s mine. 😥
    There do seem to be some kind of realization going on in her mind right now. That everything she tried to run away from in her mother, is what she became herself. And the hole imprisonment thing that her mother put her through in the guise of protecting her. Is what she was about to do, or actually had been doing to Henry all along. So she finally did take a step in the right direction, because of her love for Henry and in realizing she had to set him free, to love him, and not put him in prison.

    About her ‘evil deeds’ I think when your conscience and ability to love is slowly stripped away you become more and more of a monster. It doesn’t just happen from one day to another, you take one step in the wrong direction and then the next step and the next. That could essentially happen to all of us. The difference is she had a very good heart as a starting point, so there is still a possibility of going back to that. Though her actions, the killing of her father and of Graham and who knows whom else, can never be undone they can be forgiven. Some say in order to redemption to happen there must be a sacrifice. That’s the bible story. But I’m not sure I understand why that is and to what extend that sacrifice must be? Why can there not be forgiveness and redemption without a sacrifice?? I understand there must be a realization of what she has done, but that’s not a sacrifice so is that not enough? I’m talking more in general now as a philosophical question. ❓

    Rumples “No charge” comment didn’t seem odd to you guys ??? considering that ALL MAGIC COMES WITH A PRICE !
    Maybe its just me, not wanting all the ‘bad guys’ to turn good to fast 😀

    Wait so first Henry tries to contact the others through the red room. What happens then to make Charming be the one to ‘go under’ if that is the case ?? Maybe Henry gets stuck there ?

    There is some connection or parallel there with the communication thing too actually 💡
    walkie-talkies/dream-red room
    interesting!!! good you pointed that out Goldenkey.

    But another thought. The situation with Henry and Rumple could also be seen, as a parallel to the situation back in the day with Regina and Rumple.
    Rumple is ‘giving’ them both the means to learn to control magic in some way, so that they can get back what they have lost.
    Henrys motivation to learn to control these dreams is to get his mother and Snow back from Fairytaleland. Reginas motivation to learn magic was to get Daniel back.
