Well now I am confused. Is Cylice in SB?
It would seem that way! Awe, they’re so cute! Yeah for Cylice (sounds like a soda beverage like Sprite, lol)! đ
And Ruby is in WL?! That gives me hope we’ll eventually see her back on OUAT too!

Did anyone else notice that in “Save Henry” Mr. Gold was focused on a chess board that has Chinese figurines? It makes me think we might get to see Mulan’s backstory in the second half of S3!

Screwball Ninja posted his/her recap of 3×10 and it includes some funny Snowing/Rumbelle commentary!

I LOVE that pic of Sean Maguire dressed as Robin Hood. I bet even Regina will find it hard to ignore this honorable bandit. Also, I’m wondering if Sean Maguire will become a series regular by the end of S3. If RH and Regina are ever going to make a lasting commitment to one another, then Sean really would have to sign a long-term contract at some point for him to have incentive as an actor to stick around.

If Emma goes into a relationship not knowing everything I am going to be very frustrated.
Same here! Nevertheless, if Emma is running from her feelings for Neal by dating Hook, it would would exactly parallel how Neal ran from his fear of rejection from Emma by pursuing Tamara instead. Neal’s fear might’ve been so in overdrive that he allowed himself to fall for Tamara’s trickery (though in his defense, Tamara probably played the perfect girlfriend role to a tee). In Emma’s case, she probably sees a dalliance with Hook more as an “escape from reality,”  which as of late has included Neverland, the new curse, her overwhelming feelings for Neal, her fear of losing Neal again, or her duty as the “savior.” Hook represents an easy out for Emma. She even said to Neal it would’ve been easier for her if he had died rather than to face all of the old emotions again. That implies that choosing Neal would be the hard thing to do, but as Snow said to Ariel in 3×6, doing the hard thing of opening oneself up to love is so worth it, because then you allow for true love to enter in. The good thing about this happening now would be Emma realizing Hook is wrong for her, and  it eventually would shut the door on CS forever.
Also, there is the entire new curse thing to look forward to (*sarcasm*), but at least Emma having a fake identity might explain her sudden lapse in judgement for letting herself fall for Hook’s advances. The curse seems to like to pair people together who otherwise wouldn’t be right for each other (e.g. David and Kathryn). If that is where the direction of the second half of S3 is headed, I wouldn’t be excited for this, but at least I’d understand any further CS development. It would also give me hope that Emma really is destined for Neal, just as we all had faith David Nolan really was destined for Mary Margaret, despite them being cursed.
Itâs not even that Iâm sure it will make a difference to her. But itâs about fairness. She should know the history of the man sheâs dating. All of it. I donât get it cause JMo once tweeted during a live viewing session when asked if Emma would ever learn about Milah/Bae/Neverland stuff âstay tuned!â (or something like that) which to me implied that sheâd learn soon. And that tweet was back in about 305 or 306. It needs to not be swept under the rug like they appear to be doing with CaptainFire history.
I hear you, really I do, and I totally share in your frustration. But, there are a lot of reasons why sometimes a person lets herself fall for the wrong person, despite seeing the warning signs. Speaking from personal experience, I know what it is to fall for the wrong person, despite seeing the writing on the wall. I just kept ignoring the red flags, because I liked the feeling of being desired. It can be overwhelming when you’re attracted to the wrong person, because it feels good to be wanted. It’s a very human thing, but that type of thinking can be shallow, and very sadly, quite fleeting. I can also speak from experience of having met the right person, by contrast. They way my husband treats me is the difference of night and day from how my old flame treated me, and I can say that a real man of honor does not do to women the things that Hook does to women.

From the official ABC Facebook page: CaptainFairy!

While that spoiler isn’t very helpful, it does suggest that perhaps this will be an Emma-centirc episode. We already know that Emma is supposed to meet someone important to her (perhaps her foster brother or adult Henry), played by Christopher Gorham.

How ABC can release a CaptainFairy moment but not the official promo pic of Neal for S3 is beyond disturbing to me! Come on ABC! Throw the Neal fan-base a bone! It doesn’t have to be a major give away like “Believe in Second Chances” but SOMETHING, ANYTHING is better than nothing!

Now I really want to see Disney’s “Frozen”!
Another lovely GIF set!

I actually think the triangle of doom will last straight until the final episode of the season when it will be abundantly clear as to who Emma chooses. I firmly believe we will be getting CS pretty soon. They are each others transitional relationship. … And heâs going to be Emmaâs Tamara (minus the whole evil agenda).
Yep, Emma is running. It’s what she does right before she finally sees the light. Remember in S1 how Emma said she was not a mother. Later, after she came to love Henry, she told August she didn’t want everybody to need her. She then tried to up and kidnap Henry from SB, but Henry took matters into his own hands to help his mom fulfill her destiny as the savior. That is when Emma believed. She might not have been ready, but she really didn’t have another choice. We saw a parallel in S2 with Neal not being ready to face Emma again after she broke the curse. Neal told August he didn’t think Emma would want to see him again. That is why Neal pursued things with Tamara (well, actually she planned it that way), but Neal allowed his fear of possibly being rejected by Emma to overcome his belief in his love for Emma. Now Neal IS ready though, and he’s trying to make amends by being there for her and Henry, but still letting Emma make up her mind about what she wants. Neal is putting his heart on the line by risking rejection, because he now believes in the power of their love. That shows real character growth for Neal as far as believing in his love for Emma. Now Emma is doing the same exact thing that Neal did in S2 and and what she herself did in S1: running. Like you observed, Emma told her dad she isn’t ready. Yet, that also implies that one day, she will be ready to believe in hope for a happy ending with Neal. Emma needs to catch up in her own personal development to be at the same place Neal is at. And when she does, Neal will be waiting patiently for her.
And like Neal and Emmaâs opening scene in 2Ă1 where the hope for possibilities of having that happy ending was finally within their grasp to their final scene in 2Ă21 where they declared their love had never died only to be ripped away a moment later. Seeing Adam and Eddy looove their parallels I think we will be getting another reversal from the opener with Emma in the hospital crying because she was alone, in jail, without neal and believing she couldnât be a mother paired with Neal alone in another realm, without Emma, and fighting to get back to his family. I think her little confession about not believing she was ready followed by Charmingâs line was prophetic given who she was disclosing her fears towards.
 Yes, we’re looking at the bigger picture here.
Seriously, just how much couples have Snowing actually played match maker to?
Snow and Charming see the love that Emma bears for Neal and identify it. They’re trying to instill hope into Emma. They know true love when they see it, because they’ve lived it. The wonderful thing about Neal and Emma’s love is that when they finally do get together again, they’ll have the blessing of both sets of parents: Snow, Charming and Rumple. They’ll also have the joy of seeing their son, Henry, gets his happy ending when he sees his parents not only still love each other but chose to be together for their own sakes. That is a phrase that Snow White keeps repeating to her daughter, that Emma owed it to herself, not to Henry or to Neal, to see if Neal were still alive and then again if meeting Neal again for lunch could be the start of her own happy ending. Snow recognizes in her daughter the same fear that she herself used to have, that all the bad things would forever get in the way of good things. Yet, just as Snow had to realize that it’s worth it to hold onto the good moments, so will Emma have to come to that realization on her own. And when she does, that is when Emma will be ready to have hope for her own happy ending. Emma has to believe she deserves the luxury of taking a day off, to believe that even the Savior might need a prince of her own. And we all know whom Emma said she needs: Neal, the love of her life.
