How does Rumple/Gold know that Bae came to our world? Did I miss this?
Are we the only world without magic, so this is the only option? Or did he make the curse to specifically come to the world that Bae went to?
[adrotate group="5"]It seems like the obvious characters we are missing who would know about the curse and would therefore be coaching August are Bae, Jefferson, Pinocchio, whoever wrote Henry’s book (if it’s not August).
Also the people we know who know about the curse in Storybrooke are Regina, Mr. Gold, Jefferson, and probably the Blue Fairy/Mother Superior because she seems to have even more power or at least the same amount as Regina and Rumple.
He could be calling any of them or of course . . . the Blue Fairy/Mother Superior is the obvious answer
Of course the obvious reason Cora is not the Queen of Hearts is that they are played by two different actresses. Maybe her older sister is correct . . .
There has been discussion over Emma’s wardrobe on some podcasts and forums in the past. The longer she stays in Storybrooke, the more she is open to relationships and possibly the book being real, the sifter he wardrobe has become.
Correct me if I’m wrong, and without watching every episode over again, I think this is the first time we have seen Emma put her hair up. She very pointedly is putting her hair in a pony tail in her opening scene. It stuck out to me because we are watching her do it, it wasn’t just already done.
I am wondering if this is symbolizing more of her openness or something else?
She also wore her hood in what looked like a very ‘fairytale’ style hood to me, but others said it looked like a ‘Jedi’ hood.
Thoughts?
I posted under Rumple/Gold character analysis that I thought Rumples hates Regina because he was not able to get her after Cora guessed his name. After hearing other’s thoughts though I agree that Regina doesn’t seem like the first born.
Regina seems like the unfavored second born who’s mother gave all her love to the older sibling. In this case Cora no longer has her first-born and resents Regina even more for that.
The way that Cora and Regina are able to pull hearts out of people’s chests is way to coincidental to not be related to the Queen of Hearts in some way.
I know people think Cora is not the Queen of Hearts, but I really do believe she is. For one, the way her relationship with her husband Henry was portrayed, proved to me she would have no problem capturing him in Wonderland and holding him captive in a box. The obvious close relationship Regina and Henry share that sharply contrasts with Cora and Regina’s relationship also pointed to future events unfolding as we saw them in ‘Hat Trick.’
Side Note – Cora has the seemingly same hairstyle as the Queen of Hearts . . .
I think after the episode “Stable Boy” we learn a little bit more about Rumple even though it’s not obvious. We found out that Cora is the Miller’s daughter. If that is the case and the traditional story is followed somewhat closely, Cora would have made a deal with Rumple to give him her first born child, presumably Regina. Cora mentions that she has made many deals to get to where she is now.
So she would have been the one to reveal Rumple’s name to everyone (which is why everyone knows it now.) She was probably the first person to thwart him at his game and keep her child -Regina. This may be a large piece of Rumple’s issue with Regina in both worlds and why he was willing to give her the curse. He knew that she would have to kill her own father to enact the curse. He knew that she would be left with an emptiness in our world because of it, thus getting the beginning of his revenge on her. I’m sure he wants much more.
I forgot my initial thought at the scene with Henry was that he realized this part of the book had been added. I still think so
I know some might disagree with me, but I went back to both scenes many times and the scene where Snow is reaching up to touch Cora’s orchids (not apple tree) when Cora walks in on her is the exact picture Henry was looking at in the book at the beginning of ‘Hat Trick.’ I am 100% positive.
Everyone thought she was reaching for a locket but it is actually an unopened bud that looks like the shape of a heart that is confusing.
Henry looks so confused when he is reading this story. We have to wonder what is throwing him off. Is it the tender hearted Regina he sees in the story? Is it that he always thought, like we did, that Regina hated Snow because she was the “fairest in the land” not because of this new revelation? Is he puzzled by Cora?
