    Yes, there’s a Book of Revelation in which John of Patmos proceeds to lay out what has become the most common version of Christian eschatology–dealing with the end times and the final big battle between God/Jesus and Satan/various demons. There’s a lot of imagery that people are familiar with because of Hollywood–souls being taken up to heaven (like righteous dead), the lake of Fire where Satan is bound and thrown for a very long time, the Beast who makes war on the land.

    The themes of the book—a climatic battle between the forces of good and evil with the eventual victory of good over evil (which is really akin to a victory of life over death, like all good hero journeys)–is more important than the specific icons (the 4 horsemen, the 7 trumpets, ect). I can’t imagine that OUAT will introduce the 4 horseman, for example. I think, besides the themes of the Book, if the show plays with one specific image it’ll be the Second Coming of Christ in Jesus returns from Heaven to judge the living and the dead and the dead who are found to be righteous ascend to their new spiritual life as was believed to be the promised  reward between God and the believers.

    I don’t quite know how Robin and these spoilers might fit into that if he dies after Emma has freed all the souls of the Underworld and the gang isn’t going to the Underworld to find him again.

    Maybe it’s some sort of vision from Hades? The multiple grave stone thing is really bizarre otherwise. I mean, the writers wouldn’t seriously kill everyone, right?

    But…. I think its possible she working for hades and tricking Hook.

    Good point. Meg does work with Hades in the Disney film.

    Quark and Odo might be the best comparison for those two I’ve ever heard. I adored Odo. Like, a lot a lot a lot.

    I never liked Hook, certainly, but I could see his value in the story as another grey villain with a perspective that the heroes are sometimes forced to listen to. I used to think that Hook could be a cop with Emma, a partner in tracking down villains but it was always clear to me that Emma would never go home to him. They were drinking buddies, at most. Hook went home to his ship each night, because the sea/JR were his true loves and Emma went home to Neal.

    I sort of agree with @Kranen that Sean’s latest IG pics reek of covering his tracks.

    I understand nothing.

    But Larry seems to be sure that someone died.

    Is this for real? Did OnceABC tweet a SwanFire scene with #ALLTHEFEELS?

    LOL yes. It’s been a strange day. But for your sanity, I would suggest not reading any of the comments.

    *throws hands up in the air*

    What?

    Okay…so that leaves Zelena? Right? Is she the one to die? And Little John is there because he’s Robin’s BFF and Robin and Zelena have a kid?

    I didn’t see any tweets or photos about Merida being at the funeral. It seems to be episode 521 (the last day for it) except for Merida and Belle.

    It could be someone else, if it wasn’t for Little John. He has no reason to be at a funeral for any one other than Robin.

    I think JMo is very self aware of the fact that SF was supposed to be Emma’s endgame; even if she sometimes comes across as being totally okay with CS. I think JMo gets very inside her character and so it’s hard to not emote more when she’s with MJR, the guy she knew was going to be her characters true love. I also think there’s a huge difference between how the actors understand their characters and display that understanding vs how the writers understand the characters and write those characters.

    So, yes. JMo is a much better actor with MRJ and when it’s an emotional SF scene vs with Colin and it’s an emotional CS scene.

    I don’t think they see any behavior as different. They don’t get how problematic the relationship between Emma and Hook has been written or they just don’t care.

    And this to me is 100% spot on.
