She’d hafta be pretty dense if she hasn’t started to wonder about it by now, wouldn’t she? It was foretold that their daughter would break the curse, and now this woman shows up in town, first outsider to come to town in forever, and stuff starts going wrong for Regina. I’d be worried if she hadn’t started to wonder.

I just don’t like that Fairy…she seems sneaky. Especially after watching her in the Dreamy episode…she seems like a female version of Rumple with a bit less moral integrity.

Agreed! She may look sweet, but there’s a sting in that jellyfish tentacle getup of hers.

I’m surprised that Mr. Gold actually gets a hold of August. August seemed to hold all the power in the rpevious promo.

Indeed! Now I REALLY can’t wait for that scene to see how it all plays out.

I hope I’m wrong about the scene being a nightmare. I want Emma to wake up and finally realize what’s going on. But, it’s one thing for Emma to realize what’s going on, it’s another when the entire town knows. There were a lot of people standing behind Emma in that scene. So, I have my doubts. That, and also the fact that the coloring of the scene hints at it possibly being a dream. And I doubt Emma would thrust a sword into Regina…well, at least not this early. 😆

I think you’re right and it’s just a dream. Which would mean that everyone DOESN’T actually see the tree sprout up in the middle of town, it’s just an element of Regina’s worst nightmare. That’s a bit of a bummer, but it does look like an awesome dream sequence.

Looks like we’ll see Regina’s connection to King George, (figured there had to be one if he got the position of DA in Storybrooke), because she goes to visit Charming when he’s locked up.

I need to watch that several times…in slow motion. 😯 Thanks for the link!

I think they are also trying to make some kind of commentary on the fact that there is no such thing as Prince Charming in the real world.

Well bugger, just go and shatter my hopes and dreams why dontcha. *resigns self to dying a lonely, bitter old crone* 😛

Seriously though, that’s an excellent point. There really isn’t any way that the perfect Prince Charming could exist in our reality. Poor David never stood a chance.

I think it is so funny that when Prince Charming is on the screen I just think he is so handsome…and when David is on the screen I totally change my mind…I think the writers meant it to be that way…and may I say good acting on Josh Dallas’s part!

Indeed. The fact that David bugs us so is a testament to the writers and the actor doing their job properly.

Emma cannot go back to being a baby. I would really hate that.

Oh my gosh…that would mean no Henry either and that would seriously piss me off…The kid who put it all together not existing would be beyond sad…

That would be quite the bummer to end the show with!

I’m in the camp that thinks FTL got pretty much obliterated. With my (current) theory that Rumple made the curse with the purpose of ending all magic, it wouldn’t make sense if he designed it so that it’d send them all back to a magical land when the curse was broken.

I haven’t given a whole lot of thought to how to the finale will play out until now, but your post made me wonder about it, mia.

We know there’s gonna be a scene where Mary, responding to being called Snow, runs to David, who obviously knows he’s Charming at that point. Do we know if that will be the final scene though? It’d be great if it was, because the opening scene of the pilot shows Charming running to Snow and kissing her, so it’d be the perfect bookend to the season to see Snow run to Charming and kiss him.

But do they even realise what they’re doing? That’s an interesting question I hadn’t considered before.

The scene seems to begin with Mary just walking down the street and then out of nowhere David calls out to her. Would she have been walking casually down the street if they’d already remembered their former selves? I imagine that Mary and David would be inseparable once they’d remembered who they were, so maybe they didn’t know, and his calling to her was an involuntary action, as was her response.

So maybe something happens elsewhere that breaks the curse, then we flash to this Mary/David scene?

Emma is the one who has the task of breaking the curse, so it would have to be something to do with her.

From what we’ve been told, it’s true love’s kiss that breaks curses, so chances are, the same thing will have to happen to break this one.

Maybe Emma will kiss August?
WARNING: I’m about to talk as though he’s definitely Pinocchio. LOL

I posted in another thread how if he were Pinocchio, and he found Emma when she came through from FTL and has now found her again 28 years later, that would carry on the theme of “I’ll always find you” that her parents shared.

So what if Emma finally gives in and believes. Believes she’s Snow and Charming’s daughter, believes they’re all fairytale characters, believes that August is Pinocchio, and he’s been waiting for the day that she’d realise all of this since he first met her as a baby.
So maybe in that moment, Emma kisses August.
August: You found me.
Emma: Did you ever doubt I would?
(exact mirrored dialogue from Snow and Charming in the pilot)
Curse breaks and we cut from August and Emma to David calling out “Snow!” to Mary as she walks down the street.
They kiss, then look at each other stunned.
THE END

Maybe. Perhaps. I know all the Pinocchio naysayers won’t believe it, but I think it’s a fun idea. 😛 Also, it’d explain why it had to be Pinocchio alone who was sent to our world with Emma, (as opposed to if she’d come through as an unborn baby with Snow), because Emma needed her true fairytale love to be in our world, otherwise there could be no kiss and the curse could never be broken.

You would not believe how long my nose grew while I wrote this! 😆

Ah, so THAT’S why you don’t believe he’s Pinocchio, because YOU are. 😛 😉

Though on the water thing, spoiler pics suggest that puppetPinocchio will wash up on the lakeshore where Geppetto finds him & while he's holding him, that's the moment he's turned into a real boy, so I can totally see August's views on water being a powerful, magical force stemming from that moment.

Ok, let’s entertain the idea that August is Pinnocchio, then. When Jiminy Cricket came to our world, he returned to his original form, (i.e. human). If Pinnocchio’s original form was a puppet, he would be a puppet in this world (assuming it’s not Rumplestiltskin who turned him into a human, which I doubt, because did anything really go on? So no one argue about Gepatto’s parents!). So I believe he wasn’t a puppet at the beginning.

If August is Pinocchio, it means he escaped the curse, so all the curse rules like reversion to a previous form, non-ageing, loss of identity, August would have been immune to all that, (unless for some reason he had to become a puppet again to travel to our world, in which case he changed forms twice in that process, but I’m not sold on that theory).
