    Overall, my favorite one of 5B so far. 8/10

    LIKED

    -Slow pace without being boring.

    -Hades and Zelena together-great match, and the actors play well off each other.

    -Warrior Dorothy

    -CGI scarecrow

    -We finally found out who was taking care of the babies

    -Zelena calling Robin out on leaving the baby for the Underworld to rescue a pirate (and frankly, I don’t think his excuse was good enough! Want to be hero? Be a father a first!).

    -Henry writing that Snowing were able to talk/sing to Neal vs the telephone.

    -Robin had lines and things to do!

    -Emily De Ravin’s acting has vastly improved.

    -Zelena’s actress’ acting was top notch. I have always enjoyed her performance but this time she really knocked it out of the park.

    DISLIKED

    -No explanation for Robin’s absence last episode.

    -The weird breathing that Hades does whenever he uses his blue magic.

    -Where was Hook? I don’t like the character or the actor but it seemed inconsistent?

    -Plot hole: they may not have anything of the baby’s, but if they had found Rumple they might have had something off Belle’s for the tracking spell? Still, Robin found the baby using the old-fashioned method.

    -Zelena’s magic being unpredictable and working or not working when it serves the plot all too conveniently.

    CONFUSIONS

    If Snowing are regulars at the diner, does this mean that the spirits are moving on quickly after all? Or maybe they have no need for food now that they are dead (except when they are bored?).

    CONCLUSION

    Very emotional episode, and I am not looking forward to Zelena’s reaction if/when Hades betrays her.

    CONGRATS

    To those who suggested that

    -Hades made the Underworld look like SB for Zelena

    -Zelena was impersonating the Blue Fairy.

    -Hades wants revenge on Zeus.

    -Hades and Zelena would connect over a shared drive to destroy a sibling

    What in the world went down between Hades and Zelena that has Zelena on the verge of tears.

    Quote

    My theory from STORIES OF HADES POST …. THE BABY that Zelina had was really HADES’S baby and she said it was HOOD’S in an attempt to protect the baby from HADES. ZELINA knew that REGINA could protect the baby but was afraid to ask because of what had previously occurred between them. So she faked the whole PG by Hood. I see redemption and bonding coming between the two sisters. A&E like MADER and want to keep her around. . .

    Quote

    Yes, it is very possible that the show could down this route. In my mind, Zelena still raped Robin so logically a positive relationship between the sisters should not be possible (because I view rape as worse than hunting someone down to kill them, but that is just my opinion).

    I THINK I’VE GOT IT GUYS! Zelena isn’t in love with Hades, she was just fascinated with his darkness and role…it was nothing but a fling to her, but Hades actually fell deeply in love with her, technically obsessed with her!

    Agree with this.

    I hope we do get to see Atlantis…and I hope they pull much more from the original stories than they do from Disney

    6/10

    LIKED

    -More Henry.

    -Liam calling Emma out on her selfishness in turning Hook into the DO

    -Regina telling Emma that she is too good for Hook. I would say that this is pretty true.

    -Regina ”Don’t argue with your mother. Or your mother.”

    -The ”better place” is different for everyone.

    DISLIKED

    -No Robin Hood. Where was he?

    -Obvious that the pages were taken out of the book.

    -More clinginess from Emma.

    INTERESTING

    -A spot of light magic in the underworld

    -Hades can go above ground, so we know he is not trapped. Makes his motivation for keeping people in the Underworld very confusing though…it’s not loneliness. Or maybe he just doesn’t want his brother (Zeus?) to win.

    CONFUSED

    I said this last week when the sneak peek came out and I will say it again here: if the game is rigged so that no one can move on, then how come Daniel and Neal were able to do so ( and seemingly easily?).

    Also, Hades wants people trapped in the Underworld, which means that he doesn’t really want them in the worse place either, yet he is happy to push people into the worse place as a punishment. Perhaps Liam was the exception?

    The game is rigged. No one can leave….

    Then how the bleep did Daniel, Neal and perhaps some others with downturned grave stones leave to a better place then?

    Confused. Did I spot a plot hole just from the sneak peak?

    If there is a separate book for the Underworld, I wonder if it is in Snow’s wardrobe…..

    Looks like Belle is in fact pregnant! Congrats to all who called it. But, is this a good idea, from a story perspective? And when will Hades cash in that deal? What will happen to Baby Rumbelle?

    Quote

    Praying that this will not be season 6’s arc….rescuing baby Evil Beauty…in addition to the asylum.

    Well Emma, Snow, and Regina are the most dangerous of the group. They are also the ones that the group won’t leave behind.

    Quote

    My thoughts exactly. Emma: most powerful light magic. Regina: also experienced in magic, and can back Emma up with either light or dark magic. Snow: Hopey hope, which is something that the souls in the Underworld need to finish their business and move on.

    But then….they are the biggest threat to Hades so wouldn’t he be glad to rid of them  by sending them back to the land the living?????

    Wouldn’t it be ironic if the worst episode rating wise of the entire series so far is a Hook episode.

    Quote

    Not really. Both the character and the actor are difficult to watch, I find. The episodes with less in them have been the better ones so far.
