I had a dream and I can’t remember most of it. The details that I do remember are that the characters went to Oz, it was by the sea, and Rumple and Regina’s FTL selves were line dancing on a hill whilst their Storybrooke selves watched in horror.

Keeper of FelixLumiere says “Ten years we’ve been rusting. Needing so much more than dusting. Needing exercise, a chance to use our skills!”
I think the curse was ten years otherwise why would they be rusting and need dusting? However it is possible (and I think it has already been suggested) that the curse stopped everyone from aging. The enchantress told the prince that if he didn’t learn to love someone and earn their love in return then he would remain a beast “for all time”. “His 21st year” could either mean the prince’s 21st birthday or his 21st year as a beast. Either way the maths doesn’t work out unless the prince was 11 when he was cursed but he does look older in the painting and the stain glass window.

Keeper of FelixCould be, or perhaps the night we saw Milah in the tavern wasn’t the first night she’d been there with Killian.
When the woman knocked on Rumple’s door telling him Milah had been kidnapped, she said “the men who came into port last week” had taken Milah. Being pirates, it is likely their first stop would’ve been the local tavern and since Milah seemingly spent most of her time there, it is highly likely Hook and Milah had spent time together there.
Milah may have fallen in love with Hook “that first night” but she probably wanted to make sure it was love and not a crush. After a week, and still feeling the same about him, she probably then decided to leave with him.
Milah isn’t the type to risk losing the roof over her head for something she couldn’t trust was real. Rumple provided for Milah, if she’d left Rumple for a short lived fling then she would’ve ended up homeless or worse, she would’ve had to beg Rumple to take her back. I doubt adultery would’ve been held in high regard so she would’ve been known as the adultering wife of a coward.

No, it’s Hook. It makes me sick, and I don’t know how they’ll cell it. It’s definitely going to be Hook, though.
Why do you always think Hook’s going to die, especially when there is no evidence to back up these claims? Do you actually want Hook to die, despite claiming that it makes you “sick”?

Keeper of Felix1) I think, because the poison was already taking effect by the time Rumple got back to Storybrooke, Rumple couldn’t use his powers. He was dying and his name was fading off the dagger. Once Snow killed Cora, Rumple immediately got his powers back because the poison was no longer in his system.
2) I think Rumple did ask Bae to stay outside. He knew exactly where to find Milah which suggest Rumple has retrieved her from the tavern before. Rumple wouldn’t know what state to find Milah in so he wouldn’t want Bae to see his mother worse for wear or canoodling with another man.

Keeper of FelixI would say he was 11 when the enchantress cursed him. In Disney films, the princesses and princes always seem to be around their late teens/early 20s.

but back to my original point, he’s a kid. and in that regard, I feel like the hate is misguided.
I think with Henry, and with any child character on TV, it is a fine line to walk in terms of likability.
Child characters are often portrayed as being cute, and there is nothing worse than a kid trying to be cute when it is not naturally cute. Henry is now at that age when he is no longer cute.
Child characters are often portrayed as being naive, however sometimes that naivete can come across as pure stupidity. Henry trying to blow up magic with dynamite, really?
Child characters are often portrayed as always trying to help and yet making the situation worse when it would’ve benefitted everyone for them to stay out of it. Henry sneaking into Regina’s vault to nose around almost got him killed by poisonous snakes.
Angst- Child characters provide angst but too much angst makes the audience wish the character would stop whining.
I thought it was great acting by Jared Gilmore when Regina did the memory spell on Henry, and I liked how Henry was helping Emma search Neal’s room. If Henry behaved more like he did in The Evil Queen and less like a brat like he did in Lady of the Lake, I would find him a more likable character in general.

Rumple: You ready?
Henry: Did I remember to pack my toothbrush?
Rumple: You’re not coming.
Emma: Yes he is.
Rumple: You mean I have to spend several hours in a confined space with a child who is likely to ask irritating questions like “are we there yet”?
Emma: Yep.
Henry: So where are we going? How long do you think it’ll take to get there? Can we stop for food on the way?
Charming: Here you are, Emma. I’ve packed you some jammies and some clean underwear.
Emma: Gee…thanks.
Charming: Please let me come with you.
Rumple: No. I already have to suffer one annoying passenger, I don’t want to have to deal with you too.
Charming: That’s mean.
Rumple: I’m in that kind of mood today.
Charming: I want to be your friend, so why don’t we make a deal?
Charming: We have to hang out together on a regular basis if you ever find yourself related to Henry, okay?
Rumple: Fine. As if that’ll ever happen.All magic comes with a price!
Keeper of FelixI agree that Dorothy could be part of the home office. There’s beeen a lot of Oz references this season, since Neverland is going to be the new world we see, it would seem a bit odd to reference Oz when we may not see it for another season.

Keeper of FelixI didn’t mind Henry in The Evil Queen but I didn’t like him in Lady of the Lake or Welcome to Storybrooke. He’s a child so there’s good reason why the adults want him out of the way somewhere safe or may not tell him everything that’s going on. Yet he takes it upon himself to do something stupid and nearly gets himself killed. He is in danger of becoming the Scrappy Doo of Once upon a Time.
Henry needs to let Regina know where she stands. He toys with her emotions and, as much as I dislike Regina for what she did to Belle, it’s not fair on her. At least when Rumple messes up, Bae and Belle let him know he’s behaved unacceptably and he has chance to make amends for his wrongdoing. They don’t contantly offer him then take away their affection which is what Henry does to Regina.
In We are Both, Regina did the right thing and let Henry go home with Charming. She really wanted Henry to stay with her and could have forced him to if she wanted but she didn’t. How did Henry reward her? In Lady of the Lake, he offered to spend time with her, something he knew she wanted, but it was all a trick so that he could steal her keys.
In Queen of Hearts, Rumple blocked the portal so Emma and Snow couldn’t get through without being killed. Regina unblocked it, at great risk to herself and despite having tried to get rid of Emma and Snow throughout season 1. She could have just left the portal in place and let Snow and Emma die, she didn’t. How did Henry reward her? He completely blanked her and didn’t at least offer her to come to dinner.
Regina just wants Henry’s love and, although he claims he does love her, he has a funny way of showing it. Henry is punishing Regina for doing something good, and he wonders why she turned to dark magic.
