    It’s a dream. The story isn’t ready for that point, yet. There’s not enough people who are (excuse me for my lack of vocabulary) “fixed” yet. As in, their characters aren’t who they’re meant to be. Such as Mary Margaret isn’t fully Snow White or David isn’t fully Prince Charming. Not to mention that there’s a whole lot of Storybrooke to be mended. Remembering is just half of it, they have to become what they’re suppose to be.

    So ya, it’s a dream.

    Gold killing August……..not so much.

    ABC is such a tease.

    David is an underdog. He’s trying his best, but it kinda blows up in his face. And come on, guys, he doesn’t know what to do with himself. He’s lost and confused. Mary Margaret is there so he can lead him to the right path. In ways, she’s challenging him to be a better person because after 28 years in a coma and lost without a wife and a kid, the dude’s mess up. And he had a death experience too, so that may be affecting his judgement in Storybrooke. I feel more sorry than anger towards him.

    I agree with Sam. If you look carefully at Regina in Stableboy and compare her to what we already know about Snow and look at what we do know about Snow you can see by the end of the episode where the two took different paths to where they are now. Going with that theory, I think Regina is not completely evil and can be turned back to a good person. The key to Regina coming back to the good side is all on Snow, Charming, Emma and Henry or maybe other characters who are close to her making her realize “the truth” about the events that made her become bad. I do believe it is her mother, the magic that she aquired and the misunderstanding of all of the events that have started with Daniels death to her killing King Leopold that made her the way she is. I also do not believe she knows the whole story. There are parts that I believe that either she wanted to not know or did not know which lead to her wanting revenge and enacting the curse.

    You don’t think there’s a point of no return with Regina? If she wants to be good, maybe it be too late by then. Maybe the only thing she can do is redeeming herself because Snow White, Charming, Emma, and Henry probably won’t help her. She will have to do it on her own. But that’s for the Regina topic. I guess when talking about Snow, you really must talk about The Evil Queen/ Regina

    But to connect with Snow White, I think she understood now, as a grown woman, that what she did was a terrible mistake and that she’s trying to learn from it by doing good. Even in Snow Falls, Snow admits that she did something horrible to Regina. Yet, I really would like to see if Snow ever apologizes for the mistake she made (other than in Stable Boy).

    Thank you! Ya, Regina was prone to become more evil. And you know what, so is Emma, due to the lack of parenting and harsh life she has. Snow White, I think, was born pleasant, kind, and really not at all the bandit Snow White that we see in Snow Falls. We just see her growing into that after the Red Handed episode.

    Emma is a very interesting character. I think the writers are doing an amazing job especially with presenting her. Some people may say “oh, she just like her mom and dad,” but really, she’s just a mixture between her parents and Regina.

    You kinda see her good and evil side battling out in certain episodes. It’s like she has a White Swan and Black Swan personality. She’s trying to lean towards her good side, trying to do the right thing and be a good person, but she gives into temptation (placing a bug in Regina’s office, asking Mr. Gold for help, tricking Jefferson(Ya, that was the only way to save Mary Margaret, but it’s cruel to play with people’s emotions when it comes to family)). I can imagine that being a problem for Emma. If she can’t make the pure, straight choices, then she may fall off the path to saving Storybrooke. She may become the Black Swan or the White Swan. It all depends on her choices.

    What I think is ingenious about the Snow White/Mary Margaret is the character is what Regina was always meant to be if Daniel was still alive. That, although they are polar opposites, Regina was meant to be the fairest of them all, but couldn’t due to Snow’s mistake. And Snow-if she had killed the Evil Queen in Heart of Darkness-was meant to become the new Evil Queen. The two characters are foils, but both came so close to becoming their own worse enemies.

    I’m gonna call that Emma is the swan princess/queen from the ballet/the storybook.

    I know some people are dedicated to the idea that August is the real boy, but it would be a let down if so. Just because you don’t see much of a development from Pinocchio. Pinocchio was only seen in the pilot twice. I was hoping that August would be that boy that found Emma when she was a baby on the streets, but IDK. If August is Rumpel’s son then that would widen the plot/conflict a bit to many more possibilities. It would be awesome too and you’ll see a deeper side of Mr. Gold.

    However, the writers may just be teasing us as always.

    It was lovely. Most people would figure out just by watching the past episodes what happened between Snow and Regina, but I was satisfied and learned one new detail. That Snow was misguided and only wanted to help. That’s why she revealed the secret.
