My Dr Whale theory is that he’ll be Flotsam and/or Jetsam, basically, a minion of Ursula’s. This is assuming that they have Regina be Ursula, which we don’t know for sure, but she’s mentioned mermaid problems to Rumple and Lana has said she’d love to be Ursula, so there’s a chance it could happen.
Anyway, Flotsam and Jetsam were eels who spied for Ursula. Dr Whale spies for Regina. Maybe he was perving on Ruby because he has a history with girls who are part human, part animal, if he had dealings with Ariel.
Even if that’s not exactly who he is, I’m thinking he had to be one of EQ’s minions of some description, because people who Regina has under her thumb in Storybrooke, like Sidney and Graham, were in the same position in FTL.
[adrotate group="5"]Just got home from the screening. Most people applauded at the end, and when the host said they STILL don’t have a start date for us, all those same people groaned. So that’s a good sign that people enjoyed it and wanna see more. Can’t believe they’re doing this kind of promo when they STILL don’t have a start date though. Seriously?! LOL

I’d probably use magic to transport myself to any place in the world.
Yep, same here. I’ve got a bunch of friends all over the world and if I had a dollar for every time I’ve thought, “I wish I had a private jet so I could take off and visit them any time I wanted,” well, I’d have enough dollars to buy that private jet. LOL If I could just teleport myself to the other side of the world on a whim, even better.

Though I don’t know why but I always suspected The Huntsman was the one who was sent to capture Belle
I suspect that too. Sending the Huntsman to lure brokenhearted Belle into a trap would be a way for Regina to catch her without having to do any heavy lifting herself. Belle knows Regina now, and would likley try to evade capture. But she’d never suspect the Huntsman to be working for Regina.

Henry just can’t die, he can’t. So I am taking the “soap opera” out and say he is going to end up in the hospital.
Maybe he’ll end up unconscious in hospital and Emma will go to read the book to him. The kid believes that MM reading David the book is what brought him back, maybe Emma would be desperate enough to give it a go and see if it works again. And then Henry will grab her hand and she’ll believe.
The synopsis for this ep says Regina comes up with a way to rid herself of Emma forever, doesn’t it? So I’m going with Regina intending to poison Emma, but Henry eats it instead. Wonder if this is the shocking “death”? Wonder if it’s just regular old non-magical poison, or is it a spell?
I don’t think Regina can cast new spells in Storybrooke, but if that apple is coming out of the hat into Storybrooke, that could change things. Though we don’t know for sure that the apple pops out of the hat in Storybrooke. Regina doesn’t have the hat in Storybrooke, unless she found it somehow, but that does look like a modern day sleeve reaching out to catch it.
Jefferson isn’t dressed as he was when we last saw him in Storybrooke. Costume looks like FTL, but he doesn’t have the crazy hair. Maybe this is a flashback to when he was originally in the the magic hat business in FTL, before he gave it up, got poor, and stopped going for regular haircuts. That would mean it’d have to flash back to before Grace was born, or when she was very young. Wonder if they’d do that in this ep. Hmmmm.
Thanks! 🙂 I dunno if that was the actual intention of his license plate, but when I saw someone suggest the theory, the song just seemed to fit him perfectly, and even moreso now we know for sure he is Geppetto’s wayward son, and it was his task to help Emma break the curse.

There’s no need to panic over something that isn’t real.
And she was certainly getting rather worked up over it. Then decided to run away from it.
So either she’s starting to believe or she’s just fed up with dealing with this Fairytale crap, but I’d like to think she’s starting to wonder if there’s a possibility it’s true. I liked the twist that she couldn’t see August’s leg because of her denial.
Jennifer was fabulous in that scene. Did anyone else think her hair looked like a lion’s mane, the way they had it hanging down the front of her shoulders? Seemed intentional to me, like they made her hair really obvious, this blonde mane in the middle of the dark forest. Maybe a shoutout to the Cowardly Lion from Oz?
We’ve only seen her set out to purposefully make some magic one time, and she was only playing along so the crazy guy would shut up. We haven’t had confirmation yet of what exactly she did to the hat, if anything, though it appears she did something.
She also did something to Graham when she kissed him, though she wasn’t setting out to consciously do anything magical in that case.
When she first set foot in Storybrooke, a powerline sparked.
When she decided to stay, time began to move.
When she put on the badge, the earth shook.So even though she’s not aware that she’s making things happen, she’s still making an impact. The majority of what she’s done so far is breaking magic, making cracks in the curse, as opposed to making magic. And August needs her to believe in order to break the curse’s hold on him. The hat is the exception, but like I said, we don’t even know for sure what happened with that yet.

I agree with mickey and Midnight Dreary.
Can I join the party too? I was already an August fan before this ep, and now I’m even more drawn to and invested in the character.

I was wavering on what I thought of August until the end … when he approached Marco/Gepetto. That scene got to me, and I think it was sincere.
This is why I don’t get it that people think he’s unrepentant and selfish. He clearly states that he broke a promise and has tried to make good on it but he’s too late, and is not the man his father had hoped he’d be. Then when Marco said, “But you kept your promise. You realised your mistake and you tried to fix it. That’s important. If I had a son, that would be enough for me.” It must have taken ALL of August’s willpower to not break down and hug him right then. Was a heartwrenching scene for me.

He shouldn’t have had to “confront” Emma (it was his job to raise her knowing about the curse & her role in everything- everyone is in the positions they are in because he didnt- weather people like it or not- that’s the fact of the matter) about the curse- he’s made things worse not better for her by doing what he did last night-
He is now realising the implications of his actions, (or rather his inaction), and the implications are kinda huge, so he’s getting desperate to find a way to make it right. Making a poor decision that snowballs out of control and then is hard to rectify isn’t an unusual thing, it happens to perfectly well meaning people every single day, and that doesn’t automatically make them evil.
