Gotta love how the clip with “dead” Archie has mostly just served to inspire speculation on how he’s not dead. Only on this show! 😉 I do hope he’s not really dead, as his rumoured involvement in future eps seems to suggest.

As for Archie and Gepetto as an item, it would certainly be a modern twist. What happens between a man and his conscience stays between the man and his conscience. Cricketto or Gepicket. The audience would probably be okay with a gay pairing seeing as there is quite a lot of SwanQueen supporters in the fandom.
I’d be totally cool with them having a gay couple on the show, but I dunno about those 2 guys. It’s not that different to SwanQueen, which I think is unrealistic because of what Regina did to Emma’s parents. Same deal with what Jiminy did to Geppetto’s parents. I do kinda love the shipper name Cricketto though. 😆

I didn’t think anything of it. I just think that he is growing up and wants to be more independant. Especially since Charming taught him to sword fight, and he now has a horse which he is responsible for. He might just want to prove that he is capable of looking after himself and doesn’t want to be shielded by everyone all the time.
Agreed!

Love the new Rumbelle scene, and also the bit with her being locked up and screaming.
“Don’t I know it. Meatloaf back home…what a b!tch.” 😆

Regina: Sorry, I’m late.

Love the writers for these little things.
(Evil Queen says the same line when she bursts in on the wedding in the pilot)Nice catch! I loved how the party instantly died the moment Regina showed up.

Although it would seem Rumple could be the lion because of the whole courage theme, I wonder if it will be the Tinman that will link Oz to the characters we know. The Tinman lacked a heart and Cora and Regina are known to rip out hearts.
In the Frankenstein ep, I wondered if Victor had accompanied Jefferson to Oz, having heard of the Wizard there who can give people missing body parts, including hearts. I could definitely see the Tinman being a victim of the style of heart removal we’ve seen on the show.

So, maybe, if there is any dead queen in the episode, might be Snow’s mother. Or Aurora’s – hmmm, she got the best of Maleficent, didn’t sound to me like she’s dead, or at least wasn’t killed. On the other hand Aurora hasn’t ask for her mother, or anyone else from her family, makes one wonder.
Yes, for now I’m assuming that Aurora’s family have died somehow, because you’d think she’d have mentioned finding her family by now if they were still around, especially considering she did mention her mother, but in the past tense. If this ep is about Snow’s mother’s death, I’m not yet convinced she really died, or if everyone just thought she had, so that could be a play on words with the ep title.
Wonder, why everybody thinks, this episode will have a Cora background story line. Did I miss something? What is the source for that?
That was speculation based on Rose McGowan’s casting for YoungCora, but now that we have the title for ep16, it’s probably safe to say that that will be the ep Rose is in, with Cora’s backstory, and this ep won’t have anything to do with Cora after all.
This thread should probably be moved to the spoiler section, even though it’s got a warning in the title.
I knew it! Totally guessed that it’d be the Giant being dragged out of that hole.
Now, when he’s successfully pulled out of the hole can we please get a moment when an exhausted and relieved Anton quietly mutters, “Dude,” to himself. 😛
If Emma’s still out of town at this point, there’s no one around who would recognise him, (assuming he arrives normal person size), except Hook, but I doubt he’s gonna be hanging with the SB residents and will clue them in. He was hanging around when they were shooting that scene though, so perhaps he’s spying on the commotion? Maybe that’s how Hook and Cora will be outed, when Anton is all, “Hook stole my crusty bean to come here, so I whipped up a fresh one to come get him,” and they’ll be all, “Say whaaaaaat, Hook and Cora had a way to get here even without the compass?!”
That’s why I doubt we’ll get the specific story of the quest for the Holy Grail on the show, because it’s a legit symbol of spiritual importance to so many people, so for them to classify and include it with this batch of stories that are fiction would be treading close to a line that may offend people. Though the show does work on the premise that these stories aren’t really fiction, and are actually historical events from another land, but still, I dunno that they’d go there.
I think that having a cup in Rumple’s castle that resembles the Holy Grail, and having Lancelot mention a cup that grants eternal life, is enough of a nod to the legend of it, without them having to get specific about it. In Skin Deep the symbolism of it worked, because it illustrated just how sacred Rumple considered Chip to be, that it could take the place of the Holy Grail. In Lady of the Lake we had the guy who famously went on the quest for the Holy Grail, giving Snow a cup to drink from that would make it possible for her to have a child, so the theme of it fit perfectly. But I dunno that we’ll ever see anyone on the show specifically mention the Holy Grail by name.
In the commentary track for Skin Deep, I’m pretty sure Robert and/or Jane refer to it as the Grail, (I’ve only listened to it once, but seem to recall that being said).

Thanks for the link. Looks suspect to me, not even really talking about the pixelation, but the composition is weird and wonky looking IMO. I’m guessing someone took the rumours about Emilie having been in a hospital gown costume and Photoshopped this image. Belle may well end up in hospital, but I’d take the costume rumour as more evidence of that, and don’t put any stock in this particular pic.
