Since Snow now has a “Heat of Darkness” can she come back from murder? If so, how? Also, what hope is there for Regina, who presumably also has a giant black spot on her own heart?
Jiminy came back from it. Why can’t Snow? Red has come back from it. Why can’t Snow? Other people have killed and murdered but they’re not dark and evil people.
Really? Your life in New Jersey is better than staying in a town where you could have a relationship with a beautiful woman who is the major of a town and can give you and your son anything they need? Seriously? Wow. He just sounded like a moron to me
Wha? How would you react if a woman you just met a couple days ago asks you to move your whole life to another state? It’s one thing if Regina said “Hey let’s keep in contact” or something. But…. really, I think that was an appropriate response for the guy. He has a job, a family back in Jersey (we know he has a brother). His kid has grandparents probably. They can’t just up and leave to a new town because some hot mayor asks them to. And let’s not forget that he is still dealing with the loss of his wife.
That’s silly to even think that is normal lol
I adored David’s protectiveness of Emma this episode. Giving Neal the stink eye when he first met him, asking Emma if she was ok when she and Neal were talking, moving in front of her and deflecting the fireball that was aimed for her head, calling her soon as he woke up and asking if she was safe.
I think it was the most interaction they’ve had all season lol
I don’t feel any more or less sympathy for her than before I watched this episode. I do, however, understand her more.

I think it’s okay if he’s mad because, at this point, he doesn’t know she didn’t get the money. Logically, I could see him not understanding why she would give him up given her (and Neal’s) issues when it came to abandonment and as long as he thinks she got the money, Emma wouldn’t have much of an excuse to give up her kid. That’s not what happened of course, but Neal doesn’t know that yet.
Damn, I totally forgot about the money. True that, he would assume she would have had money to get them started.
If we see Neal’s actions as a parallel to Emma’s, does that win him any more sympathy?
To me, not really, no. He could have left her. Just left her. But, he set her up to be arrested. That’s cold. And was unnecessary. Even if August and Neal thought Emma would follow him… they could have done other things than put her in prison. It was just… no.
As far as Emma being “convinced” about giving up Henry… I think they made it pretty clear in The Price of Gold that there was a lot of persuasion done when Emma made her decision to give away Henry. I think she gave him up ultimately because she knew she couldn’t provide for him at her age but I think she came to that conclusion because counselors and social workers and the like probably pushed her that way.
“You’re 17/18 years old Emma. How are you going to take care of him? You don’t have a job. You don’t have a place to live. You don’t have any skills. You don’t have an education. You have a criminal record. What can you give him? You were in the foster system, you know how difficult it can be. Are you going to put your baby through that? He is going to be in the system for a few months while you serve out the rest of your sentence. But, he doesn’t have to go through what you went through. You can give him a better option right away. Give him up for adoption and he’ll go to a nice and loving home right from the start. Let him have a real chance at a family, a closed adoption is the cleanest way to do it.”
I can definitely see a bunch of people giving her that speech.
I’ll be so pissed at Neal if he is actually pissed at Emma for giving up Henry. Sorry. No. A man who leaves a woman like that.. whether or not he knew about her being pregnant… has absolutely no right to judge her on the decisions she was forced to make alone.
Her magic was bigger than Rumple’s shortly after Rumple took on the powers of the Dark One and that could very well have been true. But as time goes on, things change. According to the ep Dreamy they only had a certain amount of fairy dust per year. And Blue said that fairy dust powers the world. And it seemed like magic was starting to wilt away in the Enchanted Forest. Last bean, last enchanted tree, etc. If you look at fairy dust and (good) magic like oil in our world, there’s only so much of it and when it’s gone.. it’s going to be gone. No more. It looks like in the EF, it wasn’t in as much abundance as it once had. Fairy dust isn’t something that’s grown, it’s mined. And that comes from the diamonds. Well, the diamonds aren’t something you just grow. Once those are gone, so will fairy dust. That could have decreased her powers in the EF because she needed to be more cautious with its use and conserve it.
Now, here in SB, they haven’t been mining for fairy dust very long and then Regina and Rumple stole what they had mined right before Snow and Emma returned. So, if the dwarves and whomever have been mining since then… they don’t have that much fairy dust. That is obviously going to limit Blue’s power in SB.
If she’s weaker in SB than alright. I’ll take that under consideration However, how is it that the ultimate power, the oldest power, wasn’t able to stop the curse? She was really ineffective in both realms. Either she wanted the curse to happen for reasons we don’t yet understand or they really need to underplay her supposed power.
Why do you think anyone would be able to stop/break the curse? It was written in the curse itself that only the child of Snow and David would be able to break it.
I’m thinking.. and yes, I’m fanwanking this… that the reason Blue isn’t very powerful now is because she is the oldest power. Perhaps she’s… well, lost her powers along the way. Old age, time… I don’t know. But, the oldest doesn’t necessarily mean the strongest.
