    But it’s not just a sword. It was already established that Blue created it, and it does have special powers.

    Oh right. It was Beowulf’s, right? Totally forgot that. Still, the powers were iffy. It was said to create the appearance of heroism? It’s just convenient that it is also a sword that can rip through fabrics of reality?

    As to the question of why Neverland, I think Gideon said something about magic preventing Hook from coming home (to Storybrooke), so maybe the magic bean having been magically preventing from taking him to his new home simply deposited the pirate back in his old (and much longer lived in) home in Neverland.

    I sorta assumed the bean would override Gideon’s magic but no, you’re right. That makes sense (inasmuch as it can)

    I, too, feel that this interlude was totally unnecessary.

    I don’t get how killing Emma unlocks a realm. How did Gideon leave the realm with Emma still alive? Why is Emma’s life tied to the Black Fairy’s imprisonment at all? She was locked up long before Emma was born! And why can this sword cut through the fabric of realms? It’s just a sword! It’s not Excalibur; it’s not special?

    I screamed at the Hamilton Tickets scene, but isn’t OUAT like two to three years behind us? How would they know about a musical that’s not even out yet? It would’ve been easier and better timeline wise to have Isaac ask for tickets to see Aladdin or Wicked…or even Newsies!

    Because the writers wanted to use a pop culture reference and hoped we wouldn’t catch on. When we did, however….

    For the record, in the #OnceUponATime universe #Hamilton hit Broadway about 18 months earlier than in our universe. #timelinepolice

    GENERAL: I dunno. It was better than last week but was all over the place. I like that we got some solid answers about Gideon and what’s going on with him. Plus a long standing question got an answer (sort of. I have no idea how Snow got that powder from the Black Fairy…). But man ease up off that throttle writers. There were some unneeded plot lines!

    RATING: 7.5/10

    LIKED

    –The Black Fairy called Gideon “Dearie.” Nice little inside joke

    –Enjoyed Gideon telling Emma for having such a black/white view of him. At this point in her life Emma should know that villains are infinitely more complicated than they first appear; but of course Gideon messed with Hook and that’s Emma’s no-no.

    –Is the dust the Black Fairy gave to Gideon the same dust Snow had in S1 that she got from a “dark fairy.” If yes, then yay continuity! If no, then boo for wasted potential.

    –“Freedom. Sports car. Big Apple. And Hamilton tickets.” I mean, I would honestly demand the same? (Does this mean it’s 2015 in SB? That’s when Hamilton opened)

    –The Black Fairy did create the Dark Curse! (sort of? Out of dust?) (but how did this random kid know about Emma/The Savior?)

    –The Black Fairy has Gideon’s heart. Thank god; a logical, no-nonsense canon compliant answer to why Gideon’s plans and understanding of Saviorhood makes zero sense.

    –‘Its the final chapter.”

    MIXED

    –Why is Gideon “different” and “precious” to the Black Fairy? I get that he’s Rumple’s son but so was Baelfire. Why did she never try to take Rumple’s first son?

    –All the darkness we’ve ever seen comes from the Black Fairy? I don’t get what this means. So was she born evil; can you be born evil if you’re responsible for putting evil into the world? I really hope the Black Fairy’s storyline is worth this mental headache.

    –This is super nitpicky but I hate Emma’s magic. All it is is a stream of white light. At least Regina gets fireballs. Emma’s magic should be extreme; almost Hogwarts-ian, lots of drama and flair.

    –Jaime Murray scene chewing her way through everything. She’s keeping with the Cruella-type of villain.

    –I don’t get how killing Emma unlocks a realm. How did Gideon leave the realm with Emma still alive? Why is Emma’s life tied to the Black Fairy’s imprisonment at all? She was locked up long before Emma was born!

    DISLIKED

    –Seriously what even is the Black Fairy’s outfit??

    –I already gave my thoughts on Emma and Snow in Rumbelle’s shop. I cannot with Snow and Emma’s hypocrisy.

    — Shouldn’t Blackbeard ask if the Jolly Roger is in the EF OR realize that it clearly can’t be in the EF since Hook isn’t using it to get home? Characters are stupid when the writers need them to be.

    –“Portals take extreme magic and do not just come out of thin air.” Lies, writers. LIES.

    –Magic beans are everywhere; including Blackbeard’s hat!

    –All of Hook’s scenes were totally unnecessary.

    And once again…the Charmings are self-righteous, self-serving, self-preserving “heroes”. What’s new folks?!

    Charming basically said the exact same thing to Belle in the spring premiere (the line about giving Belle one shot to save Gideon, adding “but if it doesn’t work…”).
