From the extended preview it looks like Emma goes down the elevator in the mine shaft and confronts a dragon which could be Maleficent’s “surprising counterpart” in SB. Maybe that is her true form as everyone seems to be in their true forms in SB. We know from the Disney version of Sleeping Beauty that it was at least one of her forms.
[adrotate group="5"]Why are we assuming SB is in 2007?? Things seem much older to me than that. The old NOKIA phone is more 2002. What else were you the giveaways??
The Tron door is a good theory, but I think that is the door the writers were referring to as the glass elevator in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. The confirmed that one of the doors is that.
I just re-watched the episode over the break and another reference that seems obvious to me now is to Snow White and Rose Red. Now that we have seen the story in Henry’s book several times it stands out. From the moment Snow and Red meet in the chicken coup, to every other scene where they are outside in their respective red and white cloaks, if you mute the sound, you would think you are watching the story of Snow White and Rose Red instead of Red Riding Hood.
Visually, they seem to have made the reference very obvious.
In the story, one of the girls married the prince (James perhaps) and the other married his brother (maybe his brother isn’t dead afterall) The first Prince James and his Shepherd brother are the only brother Princes so far in FTL. Or maybe they will never actually tell the story, they just like it in the book!!
Now that we have seen “The Return” and we now know Rumple’s motivation for creating the curse in the first place and his sole mission since he has been in this world, we have a better idea of what he will ask Emma to do as her favor to him.
He has spent all of his time in FTL figuring out how to get to this world. Once he got here, he has spent all of his time trying to find Bae. It has been stated several times “Emma has a talent for finding people”.
I think Mr. Gold will enlist Emma to find Bae in some way shape or form. It will no doubt be in some round about way, just as he has done everything else. But I believe that is also why he says now that she is sheriff she just may be able to pay him back. She would have many more means at her disposal to track someone down either magically once she believes or through being in law enforcement.
YES I think it was certainly implied that she has her memories. Why wouldn’t she? She’s more powerful than Rumple and Regina and they have theirs’.
