    Yet, how then were Zelena and Hades able to share TLK if it turned out Hades was just playing her and wasn’t really willing to give up his pursuit of power? Zelena just wanted to share a quite life in SB with Hades and her daughter, when what he really wanted was to rule without any interference from the so-called heroes.

    I think it’s because Hades wasn’t really playing her in the sense that he didn’t love her; he just wanted it all–the girl and the power. When TLK was started to work in Skin Deep, Rumple still loved his dagger and his power; but there was enough under that (his love of Bae, for example) that overrode his desire to hold on to his power. At least that’s my guess. Until Hades got to SB, his love for Zelena and his desire to have a family was at the forefront. But once he got to SB and he realized that with a beating heart and the heroes left behind, he could once again take power, that’s what drove him.

    Then the Hook and Zeus scene felt very much like the iconic Harry and Dumbledore “Kings Cross” scene.

    Oh that was straight up King’s Cross. Like right down to the way the scene was lit and the set dressing.

    Amiright??? So, now I am wondering if Robin’s act of sacrifice has created some new magic, all it’s own???

    It probably *should* give Regina the same sort of protection like it did with Harry but I doubt the writers understand their own world and how magic operates in it enough to follow through with that.

    Probably! Well spotted. I wonder if they’ll call it Bedlam Hospital in honor of the very famous mental hospital (also known as Bethlehem)

    Probably Belle. *twitch*

    Belle dies in childbirth, giving Rumple a daughter whom he promptly names Belle.

    Ye gods.

    Robin is six feet under with a baby named after him….chances are very, very low of them bringing him back.

    that does seem to be the running formula on this show.

    Public funeral + baby named after you =dead dead dead

    Both Robin and Neal had the same set up.

    Could the crystal “end” magic as well? And that’s why Gold wanted it so no one could get it? Does Henry end up with it and flee to New York?

    Quote

    That’s a very good guess, I think.

    Actually, yes. What was that about?

    I’m hoping this gets fleshed out when we find out what Rumple wants to specifically do with the crystal.

    Quote

    Mmm, agreed.

    Maybe the crystal can do something else besides kill a god? in the promo for next week’s finale, there’s a moment with Rumple and what looks like a shard of the crystal. He’s floating it and it’s all glowy…so maybe it can do more…???

    2. Just like with Hook, they want us to believe Robin is truly gone before they bring him back in grand fashion.

    I’m waiting on exit interviews. Apparently both TVLine and EW are supposed to interview Sean today, so I’m #hoping that sheds some light on if Sean/Robin is gone for good.

    I think this arc could have benefited from cutting a few stories and putting in others.

    Things we did not need, in the long run:

    1) Hercules/Meg storyline of 513

    2) James and David

    3) Ruby Slippers

    Cut those and give us flashbacks of Zeus/Hades’ story and maybe Zeus decision to bring back Hook wouldn’t feel so tacked on at the last second.
