When you go to someone’s page, by default it will load in “No replies” mode. At the top of their list of tweets, where it says “Tweets” in bold, in a smaller font next to that, there are links for “All” and “No replies”, which will be blacked out, so you need to click on “All” for everything to show. (I may have been confused by this same issue for a full week once, before I figured it out.)
Thanks so much! I think I must have figured that out before a long time ago and then just forgot it all again. I’m so used to seeing all on everybody’s page I guess I just didn’t notice and wondered why it was so weird this time. Thanks so much & I hope that’s helpful to others who were experiencing the same thing!

Lol. That’s me!! I posted this in the Blue Fairy puppet master thread. I was floored. Totally killed so many of my theories. Except I still think she’s behind a lot of things.
Well in all fairness it IS very strange that she’s supposed to be this ultimate power but hasn’t really been shown to have a whole lot of it. Perhaps it’s more that her power really IS good (like they’ve been trying to tell us even though a lot still think she’s sneaky & up to no good) and that good simply has to play by the rules and therefore evil has the upper hand sometimes. I think they had said something along those lines in the official podcast at one point, something about her being good at least, I’d have to look it up. The lack of knowledge + the ultimate power thing isn’t doing BF any favors.
The only thing helping her right now is that Charming & Snow trust her. Hopefully we will see more in the show sometime that will definitely tell us these things so we stop assigning evil deeds to characters who weren’t meant to come across as sneaky! lol
I also hope they’ll do more of these Q&As sometime as long as they tell the story they want to tell and not cater to vocal people. For everything people scream about I’m sure there are countless people silently enjoying and it’s a shame that so much negativity has gone their way recently.
It was nice to see that Adam did a nice (albeit it quick) Q&A. I know I saw somebody use it to rant at him and was disappointed to see that but hopefully the creators / writers can roll with the punches and ignore the outliers instead of thinking we’re all crazy (ok, ok…we are but in a good way most of the time!)

Thanks so much MagicDragon! I was really bummed out not getting to see it. Usually if somebody replies to someone on twitter it shows up in their feed and I click view conversation etc and it was driving me absolutely crazy! Not sure what changed or why it’s so convoluted now, you would think it would show up on his page as things he’s tweeted but all it was showing was ask me questions and then back to work…guess I’ll have to pay extra close attention in the future!

I still wanna know what the final preparations were!
Ditto!
Also is anyone twitter-savvy enough to explain this to me? I even clicked on Adam’s page (I follow him) and all I see in his timeline is asking for questions and then saying he needed to get back to work….never once saw an answer he gave to anybody except for what is posted above. What gives?!? Clicking on his page should have shown all of his replies… 👿

Well he does have a touch of the Dread Pirate Roberts in him at times… 😀

^^^So…you’re saying they were being smug? 😕
Yes..that’s what I said..?
It’s not a bad thing!
They were being smug as in they’re pleased, they know something big we don’t, they’re stirring up the fans by telling them big things are coming our way to get everyone pumped and exicted…
I really don’t know what you mean. Are you confused by the term ‘smug’ or you didn’t see them (especially the directors) being smug?Why does my wry sense of humor not translate well online lol 😀
I have the same problem most of the time. In this particular case I’d guess it was the emoticon to blame. It looked rather…worried.
Either way I’m realllly happy about the looks they were giving each other at PaleyFest…anybody think they put them on opposite ends of the panel for a reason?? (Poor Colin having to hobble all the way down to the end…)

Jolly Roger – I completely agree with you. However I am afraid that our definition of endgame and the writers definition of endgame could be two entirely different things. That’s my fear anyway.
I’d like to see them do something new and different and have Emma be a true product of FTL + our world and go for the choice that leaves Henry with all of his family in a non-traditional way just because that is real life. He’s lucky enough to have everybody in his life to begin with now. I really really hope that we get longterm CaptainSwan but I’m not going to stop worrying until they have both clearly moved on.
Emma is a NEW fairy tale character so on the bright side there’s isn’t anything that says she must with (insert name here) like most of the rest of the characters. Emma being the product of true love was important but she was born in FTL where things are a little different. Hopefully they don’t make it so that Henry is too so that we’re stuck. I’m kinda enjoying the fact that Emma can be with whomever and we can watch it unfold as a new fairy tale rather than all the ones we know have to end up together eventually. It’s refreshing and frankly I think SwanFire undermines that whole idea a little bit. I can see why they’d go there but I refuse to give up hope.
Oh and I think it’s that “smug” has a negative connotation perhaps? They definitely looked like they knew something and I was jumping for joy. *Fingers crossed we get lots of CaptainSwan goodness out of it!*
PS: Does anybody know where I can find a great Hook icon/avatar that isn’t being used by anyone else? With as much as I have to try to defend him I might as well use him as my pic!

Never noticed the scarf! That’s my favorite scene from Tallahassee so it’s sweet that their keepsake makes an appearance. 🙂
Poor Emma – while she’s willing to do it I think it’s going to be tough to keep tying him up and leaving him places and she always looks guilty. She basically told him the first time she did that it was because she felt herself wanting to trust him and it was too dangerous. The past is the past, she’s a new fairytale character who grew up in a modern world…nothing has to be too predictable and just because Henry deserves to have both / all his parents in his life doesn’t mean that they have to end up together (though they’ll probably be endgame so that Henry gets his happy ending of getting his family back together, grr…can’t they just all be in his life and love him and get along but love other people?!?!?)
Hopefully this does bode well for the chance of a love…square? As long as Hook is given a chance to fight for it because Neal clearly hasn’t earned it. Sorry but the “I knew where you’d be, Pinocchio even sent me the postcard as promised but once I knew you were one of them I decided it was better to toss you in jail, get engaged to somebody else, and stay far far away from my dad so uh, have a good life but we have our son to worry about so keep me around” is really not working for me right now so bring on CaptainSwan! (Like I didn’t want this ship badly enough as it is!)

Just a thought but I think it might be the real deal or at least it was at the beginning of season 1 because if you think about it the clock only started to move after she decided to stay and met Gold and he got his memories back…and if the real dagger was at the end of the minute hand that would make a lot of sense…
I don’t believe the dagger was in the clock tower when Emma decided to stay in SB; I think the hand of the clock moving was just a sign that her presence as the savior was enough to weaken the curse. If you recall, Mr. Gold decided to hide his dagger in the woods. In 1×7, Heart of a Lonely Hunter, Graham came across Mr. Gold “doing a bit of gardening” in his suit in the forest. In reality, Mr. Gold was burying his dagger in the ground. Later, in 1×19, The Return, when Mr. Gold thought August was his son, we saw the dagger again buried underground.
Agreed. We know he dug it up to show to August in 1×19 The Return so I would assume that he hid it somewhere else and the clock tower is appropriate. Even though we’ve seen many people go into the library for various reasons, Belle is the only one with a key and the clock has always been an important part of the story.

More good news for Hook fans! Last two episodes of the sesaon are titled Second Star to the Right, and Straight On Till Morning! We’re going to Neverland!
Can we keep him there? 😕 😎
I’m not a Hook fan at all, but the good thing about this show is that it doesn’t just revolve around one character. If it started to turn into “The Hook Show” I’d probably not be as interested. Nothing to do with the actor. He’s fine, I just dislike the character. But the show is an ensemble with multiple storylines going on. If you don’t like Rumbelle, then just fast forward through their scenes and something else will pop up in the next scene. If Snowing is your OTP, then enjoy everytime they’re on the screen.
The show will always revolve in some way around the five main adult characters and Henry. It’s still ultimately a story about “the curse to end all curses” and then “the final battle will begin.” We’re just taking a wandering path to get there.
While I may not agree with your choice of characters (well, I love most everybody and definitely do NOT want Hook to disappear)…I completely agree on the rest of the sentiment! I’ve tried to remind people (and failed miserably) that this isn’t “Snow White” …or any other lone fairy tale: it is Once Upon A Time…it would be rather disappointing to not explore, even if only for a little while, other characters and they’ve done a pretty good job of connecting them to whatever is going on with the main characters so that it’s relevant.
Everybody likes different things and one of the great things about this show is the wide variety it has: there’s something in it for everybody. So to each their own and happy ONCEing (is that a word now??). 🙂
