ParticipantWelcome Fairest! I adore your icon.

ParticipantAbsolutely.
I also hate how they used Whale/Frankenstein as a tool for her redemption. He was so interesting and David Anders is so wonderful… Plus we’ve been waiting for a year to find out who Whale is… And it just felt like a bit of a let down for them to just let his character fall to the wayside of storytelling device. Hopefully the writers will recognize his potential more fully in future episodes.

ParticipantAgree COMPLETELY Chipped. People seem all too ready to forgive her, or blame someone else and let her be redeemed. But she has done so many horrible things and it’s disgusting to just go ahead and say “It’s not her fault, it’s because of ____” She’s the one who committed the acts and she needs to be held responsible.

ParticipantIf Alice went through a rabbit hole in our world and came out into Wonderland….then the rabbit hole should still be in Wonderland. The way Alice gets back to our land is pretty unclear, especially in the movie where it’s almost like she was dreaming. Maybe in the end there is no way to back our land from Wonderland. One time only trip. So, Alice and Jefferson fall in love, but she can’t get back home and even as a portal jumper Jefferson can’t help her. They keep trying to get her home but at some point it has dire consequences and she dies because of their efforts and he swears to give up portal jumping and raise their daughter instead.
Random theory that I just spun out while typing this comment. 🙂
Another option with that is that yes, he found her in Wonderland via portals, but took her with him, leaving behind whoever else he had brought. (Perhaps another portal jumper, like the White Rabbit?) and they get married and she gets pregnant. They keep going through portals to make more money, and then she goes into labour prematurely while they’re in another world. He’s forced to leave her behind to take Grace… And when he returns for her he discovers that she’s dead.

ParticipantI have no idea if anyone has posted this yet… But I’m watching the live-action “Hook” right now… And their Peter Pan (Robin Williams) totally drops his phone out a window, like Neal does in the opening scene in Broken.

I do think Hook loved Milah, but the the reasoning he gave to Emma about wanting to go to SB is very telling : “To get revenge on the man who took my hand” not “To exact revenge on the man who killed my true love.”
I think that more supports that he’s going to try to USE Emma romantically, just to get himself ahead. If he was all like “To get revenge for my true love” him then all being like “Oh Emma ;)” would be ultra sketch. I mean… Going to those lengths for your hand? 300 years of plotting and planning and risking your life? Life > Hand. But True Love? That’s something worth the revenge.

3) If Jefferson’s hat can only travel to magical realms, how did he get to Wonderland?
Does Wonderland not have magic? Those hedges seemed pretty magical, as did the food. Jefferson having his head cut off, but then for him to remain alive? Pretty darn magical. I think every world has it’s own “kind” magic, since Jefferson tells Regina that Frankenstein isn’t used to “their” magic. So for Frankenstein, he calls the magic of his world “science” even though that isn’t what it truly is. As the only true science is in our world, with not a single ounce of magic or mysticism to change results.

As to those slippers: unless the magic of the slippers is that they take you to Kansas, no matter where your home really is? The writers could get around “no place like home” like that.
*looks at the bottom of the slippers*
Hey! They say “Made in Kansas”.

ParticipantI like your idea of the shoes and the ingridient theory in general. Rumple also might be mislead there, as Glinda the Good tells Dorothy that she didn’t need the slippers at all… So perhaps Rumple heard rumour of it, and assumes it’ll work to get him where he needs to be, or at least to be part of the curse ingridients.
