My favorite is Emma and Snow in the nursery. Big emotional and trust breakthough for both Emma and Snow. I don’t blubber – but in this case………Least favorite, David not investigating the crypt. Especially after he saw Henry frightened by the two headed snake in the box. Surprised he wasn’t more curious since it is Regina’s vault of magic.
.That line in that scene was so good! “I’m not used to someone putting me first”

I have to agree with slurpeez108 and Mike.This episode was good and showed that:
Cora is a cunning Evil force to be reckoned with. Bets she goes to Storybrook with the other 4 – and if Lancelot is really alive, him too. She may be the one that creates the “portal” that allows all of them to get back.
Fully convinced Emma that FTL actually exists and that her “I can handle anything” doesn’t work for her there.
Her mother is not only a badass survivor but really is a “I can handle anything” person in FTL that Emma found out she isn’t.
Emma finally understands and believes that Mary Margaret/Snow is in fact her mother.
Emma is overcome with feeling to believe that Mary Margaret/Snow has unconditional for Emma, allowing Emma to show an emotional “crack” in her self sufficient – don’t need anybody – exterior. She is now accepting MM as the mother she spent her entire life looking for.Bonding between Charming and Henry – the (grand)son he always wanted.
Jefferson and his daughter’s reconciliation was wonderful. Gave Jefferson a reason to believe there is hope. Maybe Jefferson will now try to create a portal for Emma and Snow, since he now believes there is “can” instead of “can’t”
Regina showed real emotional joy when she thought Henry wanted to meet her for lunch. No doubt in my mind she really loves him, she just doesn’t know how to get him to love her back. (all Magic comes with a price!)
Mulan and Aurora aren’t fleshed out yet – but no doubt they will become intricately used in future episodes.
As was said, you can’t have all the characters in every episode – it would be hard to maintain a coherent storyline – there are a lot of prominent characters. Besides, each episode seems to have a theme/link between FTL and Storybrook to a particular event.
Some episodes seem to some that they are not as interesting as other episodes, but I believe they provide a vehicle for clues, hints and beginnings to major episodes in the future.
.Totally agree, we’ve seen Emma emotionally vulnerable before but not like this. The thing I was wondering before was how well they would pull off Emma being Snow White’s daughter when they both look the same age and were friends all last season. I think Emma falling into the hat and ending up in a world where her Mom is so well equipped to deal with was the best thing that could have happend to their relationship. It put her in a place where she wasn’t so self sufficient and she had to rely on her mom, and she was able to see just what she has now in Snow. And it’s worth saying again Snow White is complete badass 😎
I still think it’s possible that Hook is already in Storybrooke, it’ll be interesting to find out what Belle is doing in the mine cart. Maybe it’s one of those things where they’re setting the damsel in distress in peril so that Mr. Gold and Charming have to save her?

I actually enjoyed it. I think it was a great development for Snow White and Emma. 🙂 Both actresses were wonderful together, and Emma acting the way she did with was not at all a surprise–she is resentful and bitter, and she wants to try to show that she does not need anyone and that she can stand up for herself. She is not used to people caring for her.
And I don’t blame Henry for what he did–how many times has Regina done something, manipulated someone for her own purposes. She may be trying to change, but she is not being entirely truthful–she still was not willing to truly help Prince Charming find Emma and Snow White. If she was, she would have told him the whole truth about Jefferson. I honestly don’t think Regina would have helped even if Henry had asked–she kept the keys hidden for a reason.
See and that’s why I think I enjoyed it so much and already have seen it a bunch of times since yesterday lol. All last season we saw this meek Mary Margaret and now we see strong Snow White. We saw Emma and Mary Margaret become best friends and really Emma be like a big sister in that relationship. There was so much tension to know that these two best friends were actually mother and daughter and them not know it at all! Now seeing it all out in the open, with Emma realizing what it means to have her parents back in her life it’s one of the biggest things I waited to see all last season. With Henry I understand why he did what he did but it made me feel bad for Regina, Henry’s very headstrong it runs in his family, Charming I think is now finding it’s better if he doesn’t just dismiss Henry when he says he wants to help. In that way Henry will just take it upon himself to make something happen more than likely putting himself in danger.

This by far bothered me the most.. You could see the hope and joy in Regina’s eyes when Henry called.
Then bail.
Never have I been so disappointed in Henry before.
Gotta love the end bit where we see what snow remembers of the nursery.
This show is turning into a character study of parenting comparisons.
The worst part about that for Regina was also knowing she couldn’t even go to Henry when she figured out where he was, she had to send David because Henry doesn’t trust her. Imagine how that would have went if she’d have shown up instead? I wouldn’t put it past him to accuse her of hiding something that could help bring back Emma and Snow. Before it didn’t really matter much too me fixing that relationship but now after seeing that I hope we see some good moments between Henry and Regina in the future.

Emma was an idiot all episode long. Snow says don’t trust Cora, Emma says “hey guess what, I share a son with your daughter!” Emma is told Ogres hunt by sound, Emma shoots her gun, etc. It got real old real fast. Her attitude towards the people who actually knew what they were talking about made her look like a brat.
Emma doing all that, really showing her short comings just really empowered Snow for me, it had me going kind of nuts like “listen to your mom!” Considering she’s in a land she’s never been and is used to being able to handle herself it’s not unreasonable that there would be some growing pains. For her to finally get that she needs to defer to Snow and why she sent her away in the wardrobe and that scene in the nursery made the episode for me. That, the Charming fight scene where he totally lays out all those knights, plus when Snow go Legolas on that Ogre all really made this episode great for me.

Henry – Takes advantage of his mothers love for him, skips school, refuses to ever mind his own business. Never suffers any consequences for anything he does.
Well I wouldn’t say getting Emma and Snow back is none of his business and I think Charming sees that dismissing Henry’s attempts to help will lead him to think he has to do things on his own which will actually just end up with Henry putting himself in more dangerous situations. It’s something that hasn’t changed since last season, when he went into the mine shaft, when he ate the poison apple turnover. Henry is really stubborn kind of runs in the family and actually letting Henry help in some capacity will at least allow David to keep his grandson safe. Seeing Henry take advantage of Regina also wasn’t a favorite part of mine really I felt awful for Regina I know she’s the Evil Queen but here she is doing something from the heart letting Henry be with his grandfather, trying to redeem herself and then something really heartbreaking like this happens… worst of all she couldn’t even go herself to make sure Henry was safe she had to ask David. How horrible must that be?

Charming punching Whale.
I’m thinking that Charming found out Dr. Whale had a one-night stand with Snow/Mary Margaret during the curse.
I agree. Charming might be trying to make up for everyhing that happened to Snow during the curse. I hope this season does have them dealing with the fact that David didn’t believe Mary Margaret when she was accused of murder or at least having Charming trying to get over that. As much as Charming can lash out at Dr Whale for what he did to Snow, he’s also got to deal with the fact that he did his own share of hurting, perhaps even more so than Dr Whale.
You mean like… positions? 😯 After seeing a couple episodes to help put it together maybe Charming punching out Whale has to do with Whale being a little snarky about what happened during the curse. Even though Charming knows about it already and it seems like they moved past it pretty quick I don’t think he’ll take it too well if Whale wants to try and bring that up to him again lol.
No those were definitely hearts in there question we should ask whose missing a heart in Storybrooke?
Well I think they’re incorporating Lancelot and Kind Arthur as a folk tale like Mulan not as part of actual realty. Yes a lot of these stories are set in a medieval time period but here they’re an alternate universe. With Kink Arthur, Lancelot and Mulan that whole thing is really being pushed since those characters may have actually been real people in history not purely fantastical like Snow White or Prince Charming.

I LOVEDDDD this episode!!
Favorite moments: MOTHER-DAUGHTER BONDING! <3 omg at the end when Emma realises why Snow sent her away and they hug and then Snow looks back into the baby room that it could have been and starts crying ahhhh I lost it! I also loved Henry and Charming sword fighting. I am glad Charming is looking after Henry.
Least Favorite Moments: Dear Cora, I hate you. You are such an amazing villain,ughhhh. I am really hoping she doesn’t get to Henry before Emma and Snow do. I also really hate that Lancelot is dead 🙁 It was also really sad that Charming’s mom died, but at least it was for a good reason. I mean, Emma wouldn’t exist without her dying and this whole show wouldn’t be happening…OVERALL: AMAZING AMAZING AMAZING!
That scene was so great probably my favorite of the series.
