I say again, if Bae came here before going to NL, that doesn’t make sense, given this:
Neal: It’s a long story. Short version, is this world wasn’t my first stop when I left home.
Does not compute.
Unless he means “this world” = 1990s/2000s USA. Then it wasn’t his first stop. Depends on the context I guess.

15) Ok, Greg is a loony. Not a good guy.
16) How we deal with your kind?!HOLY—-
Yep. Totally agree. The “your kind” line on top of the “field office” made me go WUT????
So good. So, so good.

So looks like Bae did come here first?
Indeed. Bugger. I do not want more evidence against Sneaky Fairy being Sneaky. It will be such a cop out if the Blue Fairy actually is good…
and loved, loved, LOVED the details of Pan. Wendy Darling, the St Bernard dog (straight outta the Disney film) and Victorian London…. 😀 Makes me realise how much I do love the story of Peter Pan. When I went to London, one of the things I made my friends do was hike all over the parks until we found the Peter Pan statue in Kensington Gardens.

Colin deserves a medal, or a really big cookie 😆
the poor thing hobbling around but it was great to see him back and Regina, oh Regina you had that coming 🙁I am so dense. Kept wondering why Hook was limping – totally forgot that it wasn’t due to story necessity but because poor Colin O’Donoghue broke his leg!
Loved the Snow/Disguised Regina interaction in the forest. Lovely, and fills in some gaps in their backstory.
Least favourite, though thoroughly necessary for the story: just how delusional Regina is, in EF or SB.
Favourite: “Oh h*** I taught her that!”

Idk what it was but I thought it was really cool that they brought back that casket. I had completely forgotten about it from season 1 when Henry and Archie were in the mines. I remember wondering that was even there and now we know! Loved it.
Loved that not only was the failsafe in a location that no one thought Regina would go (the dragon dungeon under the closed Library) but also in a place (Snow’s coffin) that no one thought she would want to touch. Touche writers, touche.
Also explains why Snow’s coffin was below Storybrooke in season 1… YAY FOR NEAT ENDINGS 🙂
Hope so!
I think that Hook’s speech to Regina about revenge was him testing the waters – seeing if she would be willing to step away from the bath of revenge. I think/hope that had she not been so bloody minded, he might have double crossed GOAT and helped Regina repair things with Henry. It felt like her reaction to his speech only confirmed that he should side with GOAT as Regina is cray-cray.
Maybe being without magic will make Regina realise how fundamentally selfish she has been since Daniel died. (I was about to type ‘her whole life’ and then realised that she wasn’t bonkers and selfish until she lost the plot… after watching her mother kill her lover)
Magic has been a crutch for her. She began to learn it after a tragic event which this Armchair Psychologist says turned her psychotic. Her inability to understand why the villagers protect Snow, and her reaction to the villagers and the game of Pin The Arrow In The Evil Queen…. she just has no grasp of reality. No empathy. It is all about her – complete narcissism. Psychosis is a break from reality, a psychiatric episode where a person is unable to distinguish between reality and their delusions. Maybe she isn’t psychotic all the time, but she certainly isn’t well. Her worldview is informed by delusions: she is the rightful Queen. Snow killed Daniel. She has been hard done by despite being lovely. Emma stole Henry from her. The Charmings made her the Evil Queen. etc etc etc These are all total delusions – completely not backed up by any evidence.
Regina needs to acknowledge that and get some serious psychiatric help before she can be redeemed. Unless there is a magical version of Seraquel…..
Good idea! I assumed she meant Red but as you said – Red and Granny are in the Enchanted Forest. Sherwood is different, and Snow was gender neutral – she learned from “someone” in another forest. I’m on board with Snow learning from Robin Hood. Red taught her to track, but from what we saw of her in the two Red centric episodes, she wasn’t much chop with general banditry.
Also, I totally thought that was Robin Hood saving Regina from the executioner’s block until about halfway through the action. Is keeping the costumes very similar a clue?
Essence – a good way to describe it. Malificent has definitely seen better days! She looked more like a Ringwraith (LOTR) than a dragon. Interesting to see that the magic of sustaining her as a guardian “whatever form she is in” essentially prolonged her life once she was dead.
No idea how Hook got out. But one thing – the elevator was a “two man job” as Hook said at the start. GOAT could have just been very old fashioned and turned the controls on from above to get Hook out.
Yes. Think we can safely say that Greg is not a pawn in Tamara’s plan or a lost little boy grown up. He was enjoying that far too much. He’s with the cray-cray.
And yes x 1000 to every observation of how utterly bats*** crazy Regina is, pre or post curse. I’m done with sympathy for her. Still fascinated. H her character but done with feeling sad that she was moulded into crazy by her mother. She wasn’t. She managed to concoct that rubbish about snow killing the king, and deciding to massacre a whole village basically just because she could, all on her lonesome.
Ahh. Hook. Forgot how sexy he is.
