I definitely don’t think Lacey is a villain. She’s a bit of a wild child who knows how to have a good time and like many people when confronted with unimaginable power thinks of herself (wanting to be young forever, for instance). What I don’t enjoy about her is what she is doing to Rumple. I know she’s playing on the darkness that is already there inside him, but she brings it out in a way that we saw with Cora and it’s just super hard to watch both as a Rumbeller and as a Dearie who spends an unholy amount of time defending Rumple and telling people to keep the faith about his goodness. 😆
I also think from a storytelling perspective it’s a B-plot that should have been resolved earlier.[adrotate group="5"]"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"@Kellen wrote:
A link back to the Darling children would be neat. And Tamara sharing Grandma Wendy’s hatred of magic would make sense. I can see that more easily than her hating magic because of its effects on Robin and Marian: it was magic that cured Marian and Robin used a magic bow, so unless there’s a story that hasn’t even been hinted at yet, there’s no reason to assume Robin or Marian hat any reason to hate magic.
I don’t know if it has anything to do with RH or Marian hating magic. But if Marian and RH came to our world and maybe Marian’s sickness came back and she died, Tamara might hate the magic that was unable to save her mother.
This is the clearest pic I could find of Tamara and her grandmother from S,B, and T. So I doubt Wendy is her grandmother, but maybe a more distant relative?
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"I have stared at the clip between Henry and Regina now many times. I can’t see any hint of a rat. But I could be missing it. Anyone got rat sightage?

I’d have to say Lacey. She just seems a pointless plot twist. I’m all for conflict, but if we need another female villain, let’s at least have one of the quality of Regina.
I thought Lacey was interesting for an episode but now seeing what her influence and her desires are doing to Rumple, it’s really hard for me to watch or like her. I would have preferred that the Lacey story wrapped up in one episode (though I know that’s not ideal for conflict). Maybe if they hadn’t kept Belle in bed for so long and then given her the Lacey personality earlier in the season, it would have played better but now it’s just another thread that needs to be resolved. And I really hope it’s resolved on Sunday.

Maybe Regina turned Smee back into a human can’t she talk to animals too like Rumble did when she had turned herself into a mouse and he knew it was her what if she changed him back to get information on Tamara and Greg ❓
Snow being able to talk to animals is part of her inherent goodness, but Regina does have her crows that caw whenever she’s on screen, so maybe she can talk to animals. Or maybe Smee overheard things and somehow told Tamara if she turned him back into a man. ARG! Is there a rat anywhere in that scene when Regina talks to Henry???
What about Maleficent? I know she is dead now but she could have told someone before. She had the curse at one point (Regina stole it back from her). It’s pretty far fetched but I’m just thinking of people who would know so much about the curse.
Hook did seem to know Mal. And if Mal told Hook and then Hook told GOAT….

Regina’s dad? LOL I know he died, but, maybe he didn’t? Maybe you don’t really die when your heart is taken out and burned….
Well, I hate to squash this, but she threw his heart into a fire. And if his heart survived that, then everything in this show is suspect and everything we theorize is for naught. 😆
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"I now have this insane desire to rewatch all the episodes since The Outsider and see if I can spot a rat somewhere, lurking and listening.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Smee is old enough and like Hook he might hope that Rumple would be taken out by GOAT/Home Office.
The problem is trying to figure out how he would be communicating with GOAT and how he knew about Regina’s fail safe."He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"The person on the inside would also have to know that Regina put in the trigger and fail safe which even Rumple doesn’t seem to know about. No one knew! Which means…they had to have come from the EF or other land? Or not. Ok, thinking out loud. Options
1) Someone who knew Regina in the EF and that she put in the trigger/fail safe but not living inside SB.
2) Someone living inside SB who hates magic and is working for H.O.

The only character who has been around for a long time, knows a lot of stuff, and hates magic is someone we can definitely rule out though cause it’s clearly not Bae – though he may have accidentally caused it to be started years ago. =/ Who does that leave?
I wanna say Blue because I’ll never trust her, but it’s doubtful. But Bae and Blue and Rumple are the only ones old enough.
