    I got the impression that the crystal doesn’t just kill you, it destroys your soul.

    Yes, it wipes you from existence. At least that’s how it was explained/monologued.

    Either way, Hades was my favorite part of this Season, and I’m going to miss having him around.

    Greg Germann has more charisma in his little finger than a lot of our seasonal arc villains do. I’ll miss him as Hades too.

    (but yeah, there is a certain amount of let down right now in regards to the whole arc….)

    I have many questions but how about this one for starts:

    no flashbacks? Really? So they weren’t going to try and flesh out Hades at all? At least problematize his brother vs brother story? We didn’t even see Hades and Zeus in a single moment together. So, Hades really is just that “Bad” and Zeus really is just that “Good”? There’s really no inbetween? No grey? No…nuance?

    And guess it does turn out that Hades really did do all those tricks that the heroes accused him of last week, but we have no idea how he accomplished them since the tests for it were pretty specific.

    Sooooo…this is basically Rumple this season:

    Rumple: “I’m the DO and I love it. Haters gonna hate”

    *Belle puts self in sleeping curse*

    Rumple: “Moe, Imma need you to wake up your daughter”

    Moe: “LOLZ Nope”

    Rumple: “Kay, I tried. Imma go take over the world now.”

    Whatever.

    I have a lot to but for right now…this will be it.

    The writers did not mean to say this but this is how it comes across: one life matters more than the other, and it’s Hook’s. I’m not okay with that.

    I’ll leave it there for now.

    Cruella found the book and placed it on the gargoyle herself. She told Hook at the diner. Guessing you may have missed this?

    Yup. I heard her say something about the river of lost of souls but I had looked away for a moment to take a note on something (the phone booth)

    I must have missed something….how did Hook get the missing pages?

    I thought HOOK and ARTHUR found it in Hades’ throne room under the throne cushion…. how convenient

    I’m serious guys. Season 6 is gonna end with the casting of the Dark Curse and S7 (a short 13 episode arc) will be Cursed! SB of S1 all over again.

    It indeed looks like the Dragon is back, who is totally a returning character that none of us expected for the finale. And he’s still alive after Tamara tased him to death? Well, he did tell her that “you haven’t met the real me”, so whatever.

    Quote

    Your “flaws in logic” are pointless.

    Also, “I destroyed magic.” Ok Henry. You do you.

    Okay, real talk. We all knew this episode was coming and what was going to happen. There seems to be a theory that the final three episodes of a season go off the rails (certainly did for S5A) and I don’t think this is any exception. It’s a shame not only because of the totally unnecessary death of Robin but also because I had really been enjoying Hades and the Underworld story (messy and under developed as the world building was). A charismatic character makes up for a lot but so much of this episode was just….bad. It sucks that an arc that started out pretty promising and pretty interesting managed to stumble across its finish line, broken and bruised.

    LIKED

    –“Hello there.” Say what you want about this season (and I’ll be saying a lot after tonight), but Hades has been spectacular.

    –“He’s not a man; he’s a god!” Someone finally remembered this vital piece of information.

    –“For you, I’d give up anything.” I hate myself for really liking Zades, but I do.

    –Regina and Robin going through the secret tunnel into the Mayor’s house is pretty reminiscent of their moment in “Witch Hunt.”

    –Can we just have a Cruella show?

    –“I’ve had a few 1000 years to dwell on it.”

    –The arrows on the roses are a nice touch

    MIXED

    –The Arthur/Hook quest. Those two are so scary alike (possessive, obsessive) and it’s highlighted here, but I don’t like either character so I don’t really want to see their little adventure.

    DISLIKED

    –“I’ve come to explain to everyone that Hades has changed!” How exactly does one explain something like this?

    –Anytime Arthur appears I can feel my skin crawl. And he like randomly died??

    –This is a [Magical MacGuffin] that I’ve had this whole time but kept in pocket for inexplicable reasons and now I get to use it!

    –The Olympian Crystal is not a real thing.

    –Moe refuses to give Belle TLK until Rumple leaves the picture. The parents on this show are appalling. All of them.

    –‘We all have the capability to change!” (Now let’s go steal back my daughter from the Wicked Witch and Lord of the Underworld) (Contradictions!)

    –“You’re my future” This is the kiss of death for Robin.

    –Lost Souls are scared of fire! Who knew!

    –I’m sorry but Hook magicked the pages into the book in SB….how???

    –So lemme get this straight…Robin just doesn’t exist anymore? No moving on. No “heaven” no better place….NOTHING? But Hook, a mass murderer, gets to live? Okay.

    –True Love means giving up everything for the person you love. This is a HORRIBLE message. I don’t care if it’s a fairy tale show. It’s a horrible message. Robin has children–TWO of them. TWO. But apparently his sacrifice was necessary because of true love! You have two children, Robin. TWO. But yet you tell Hades “kill me instead!” My god.

    –Emma Swan, Cosmic Savior, plays absolutely no role in taking down Hades. Instead it’s just whoever stabs the Lord of the Underworld with a glowy object.

    –Zeus resurrects Hook for reasons! Why? Someone tell me why. I’m not being anti-Hook or anti-CS but this is nonsense. Hook still did great evil and all he did for “good” was put some pages in a book. I mean are you kidding me? That’s it? That’s what gets you blessed by a god and returned to earth?

    –What a total and complete waste of Zeus! We didn’t even get a flashback of Hades and Zeus!

    –They named the baby Robin. I am so shocked, guys. Like so shocked.

    –Tacky and heartless make out scene at a funeral during “goodbye” for another character. “I don’t caer how you’re back; just that you’re back!” Plz, go to a room and do this. So tacky.

    –“This is my kingdom” For gods sake Rumple!
