AngieBelle, I honestly don’t get the big drama about the taser either. Maybe it’s because I saw mention of it before I watched the ep, so I knew to expect it. But honestly, all I saw was someone devious using a specific type of weapon to kill magical beings. I didn’t see some naive mortal zapping magical beings with a regular taser in the hope it may disable them. It didn’t bother me at all.

Young Bae on set??? Color me intrigued.
One the page where they said that, they also said it didn’t look like he was shooting, so I would assume he’s in town to shoot flashbacks, but was hanging around Steveston to watch the other stuff they were doing.

I could see a few things, but I don’t see Emma sending her son there without her. She is learning to trust Neal again, and a few days in NY is one thing, but a magic realm where time does not move?
I could see Henry get fed up with the fighting, steal a bean but Neal catches up to him as the portal opens. Parallel to the moment when Bae left Rumpel, Neal jumps in, but no one else in SB knows where they are, so it was not planned.This is what I’m thinking too. Which makes me wonder if perhaps Henry and Nealfire end up in FTL instead of Neverland. Henry wants to go to FTL, specifically the Enchanted Forest, because it’s where his family comes from. If Nealfire jumps in with him, Henry is not a Lost Boy, so he wouldn’t get detoured to Neverland like Bae did. So is everyone else going to FTL too, and we only see Neverland in flashback? Or do they think they went to Neverland because that’s where Nealfire went last time, so that’s where they all go to search for them?

Favorite moment: When Charming won “Husband of the Year” when he held Snow close and told her she’d find her redemption, together with him. I love those two together.
This was one of the things I did really like about the episode. Where can I get a Charming of my own?

It’s sad that Pinocchio 2.0 doesn’t get the chance to learn from August’s mistakes. August finally got all the bugs worked out of his code, then the whole file disappeared in a hard drive crash.
Nice analogy.
One of the reasons the de-ageing and getting the second chance bugs me is that I don’t necessarily think he completely proved himself. Yes he turned the car around, yes he went to the cop station, yes he made a phone call, yes he tried to whisper the information to Emma. But resolving to do something and actually achieving it are two different things, (if I had a dollar for every thing in life I’ve said I was going to do, but didn’t actually end up completing the task) and IMO we didn’t see August actually prove himself completely to earn that second chance at life, not from lack of trying, but because they killed him off without giving him the opportunities to see it through properly.
I realise they had a situation where he knew too much, so Tamara needed him gone. I’d have preferred it if he’d escaped her attack and had to find another way of getting the information to Emma, while staying out of Tamara’s way while she kept trying to find him to stop him. Show August having to go to great lengths to achieve what he’d resolved to do. Have him somehow draw Tamara’s actions out into the open. Then if she tased him and they de-aged him, it wouldn’t have bugged me so much, because he truly would have redeemed himself and earned that second chance. I just feel that they way they did it really short changed him, and I wanted to see him come good in the end, because I’ve always had a huge soft spot for him.

I hope everyone has continued faith in the show, I really trust eddy and adam. They created characters and stories we care so deeply about, and at times to a faultI don’t anymore. Season one was good and while I just got into the show because of Regina I still liked seeing most of the episodes of season one and looked forward to the next ones. And I liked season two as well, at least the first half.
This second half is just like when they were writing the last season of Lost, filled with nonsense and bad writing.To each their own, I’ve actually thought the most recent batch of eps have been some of the best in the whole series, so much so that I’ve watched each of the last several eps twice within the first 24 hours of them airing, and I’ve never done that before. This particular ep was a bump in the road for me, but otherwise, I’m loving the show more than ever recently.
All they needed was for Snow or Charming to say, “That fairy dust is awesome fertiliser,” and I’d have been satisfied with that as an explanation. But they didn’t, and because I’ve been wondering since the moment they planted it how the hell they were gonna get it to grow quicker than the usual century it takes, I’m afraid I’m gonna need an official explanation, or it will continue to bug me. We’re not talking about some insignificant time discrepancy here, it’s 100 freaking years.

It could be a picture of Rumpelstiltskin, who is traditionally depicted as a stange little imp.
That’s what I was thinking too.
I doubt it. If it were then he’d have been depicted accurately like everyone else.
If Rumple were depicted in the book as looking like Mr Gold, then Henry would have known who Mr Gold’s counterpart was, but we clearly saw him tell Emma in season one that he hadn’t figured him out yet.
This illustration could have simply been a shoutout to Rumple, to go along with Greg mentioning Carlisle (Carlyle) Pennsylvania, in what was technically a Robert-less episode.

But but but … Jane is Rumbelle expert… Adam and Eddie just want drama, they said as much on Paleyfest 😮 😮 😮 No wonder Belle is gonna do a 180 *eeps*
Jane may be an expert at writing Rumbelle, but K&H are the experts on every character and it’s their decision what drama any character has to go through, then they tell the writers, including Jane, what situation they have to write scenes around. Makes no difference who is actually writing this episode, the direction the characters are going in would have been the same.
The lack of Nealfire and Henry is all of this is intriguing. Makes me think they’ve already gone off to another land together and today’s photos is everyone else going to find them.

The Dragon: It was this string your father used to animate you as a freshly carved puppet. In a way it first gave you life. It will serve as payment for your soul.
It sounds like Pinocchio made a deal with the devil since the Dragon wanted Pinocchio’s soul. Could the Dragon be a wraith in disguise? Mulan called the wraith the Qui Shen, that is a “soul-sucker, ” and so it has a Chinese tie-in. The wraith cannot be killed because, according to Regina, it is already dead. If the Dragon was the Qui Shen in human form, then he didn’t really die, since the spirit wasn’t really alive to begin with. Adam and Eddy said at Paley Fest that the first part of the season would tie in nicely with the last part. I have a feeling the Qui Shen could make a reappearance as Mulan and Aurora search the netherworld for Philip’s lost soul.
Nice theory, I like it a lot.
