Sneak Peek # 1 http://www.spoilertv.com/2013/04/once-upon-time-episode-220-evil-queen_25.html
OK, Regina has seriously flipped her stuff if she thinks “they all die. It’s the only way you can see me as a hero” is the way to get Henry’s undivided love and loyalty! This sums up why I am so annoyed with her this season. She’s just lost all sense of realism and gone straight back into paranoid Evil Queen mode. It’s like she had brief periods of sanity interspersed into her long standing psychosis following Daniel’s death. (Arm chair psychologist says: narcissistic personality disorder. It is all about her and everyone else is irrelevant).
Moderator’s Edit: be careful about trying to get around the language filter. I know we all do it sometimes, it comes with having so much passion about the show, but Daniel wants us to be careful about it. Thanks–RG
[adrotate group="5"]But would Henry being kidnapped bring Hook into the Charming family fold? We know he fancies Emma, less clear whether that is just his go-to position on females or something more. He seems sympathetic when they're climbing the beanstalk and in Tiny's fortress to Emma wanting to get home to her son. And there's the fondness with which he spoke of the Lost Boys in Tallahasee as wel.
Maybe he would see GOAT kidnapping Henry as crossing a line. The pirate of fairytale and legend has a moral code buried deep beneath the pillaging exterior – think of Pirates of the Caribbean etc. Kidnapping a kid might be a step too far for Hook. I'd like that as a plot line, and it would explain the photos of the Charmings and Regina on the Jolly Roger with Hook.

That's what keeps me from ruling out Tamara being the child of Robin and Marian, even if I'm not 100% convinced of it just yet. I can just see lots of potential for them to tie things together really nicely in the space of just a few episodes if it's the case.
Yeah. That’s basically where I am at with this whole thing too.
It makes no sense to introduce yet another new character at this stage unless it is to further the plot in some way. Eddie and Adam have said that all the disparate threads of season two will be drawn together. Well what are those threads?
1. Mulan, Aurora, Phillip and the wraith
2. The beans and the possible travel back to the Enchanted Forest
3. Hook, Pan and Neverland
4. GOAT's Grand Plan of Evil
5. Rumplestiltskin's undoing by Henry – whatever that may beI have no idea how 1 and 2 are linked but think that they are, because we have those photos of Mulan on set in Storybrooke. Similarly, photos related to 3 seem to suggest the extended Charming family are off to Neverland, possibly due to the effects of 4. How 5 is resolved is still up in the air.
The only way that Robin Hood and the obviously pregnant Maid Marian fit in is something to do with 4, and most likely Tamara. I have no idea how. I think that Marian was so obviously up the duff was key – maybe it was just key to make Rumple not shoot Hood. But maybe it was more than that – I think it is to do with Tamara, somehow. Still not sold on the Fairy Godmother link concept – seems like it's stretching things to be convenient or latching on to red herrings.

Well of course Regina made Lacey to be a Golddigger.
Sorry, I had to say that pun. 😆
WINNING! 😆
My mind filled that wonderful perplexed look of Rumple’s after James told him that with “What? A maniacal violent conjurer who tortures people who steal my stuff????”
I don’t know what divorce laws are in the US or UK, but in Australia you have to be separated for one year before you can apply to the Family Court for a divorce. 364 days, nosiree. 365 days, run your butt down to court with that form!
He was married to Lara Pulver (who has been in a few things, but the thing that stands out for me is Irene Adler in BBC’s Sherlock) They were divorced sometime recently – the pure love fairytale of Ginny & Josh isn’t quite as pure as Snow and Charming as it seems that from the timelines, they hooked up before his divorce – or before his divorce was public knowledge anyway (that doesn’t mean that the relationship wasn’t dead and buried before that)
He was Falstaff in Thor, but he has been replaced by another actor for Thor 2 because of his commitments to OUAT.
And that is the grand total of what I know about Josh Dallas.
Nealfire’s line about August being cooler as a kid, not least ’cause he pinches less of his money – CLASSIC. And glad they finally acknowledged that Neal, at least, and presumably Emma has been filled in on it, know where that $20K went.
Yeah – Rumple seems to like the kids. And not in a creepy way – in a genuine way. The fact he’s having nightmares about killing Henry – not fantasies, nightmares. He is struggling with the divide between what he always said he would do and what it would mean to actually do it. That is a positive step for him.

I’m probably the only one, but I’m actually kinda curious about Keith’s SB persona. Still drunk and being humiliated for pursuing women who love other men, so not too much has changed. 😆Yeah, I don’t think the Sheriff changed too much. And the irony that THE Sheriff (of Nottingham) was not the Sheriff (of Storybrooke police). The lulz!
Was it consensual? Yeah! Lacey was loving it. She may well have initiated the encounter, and so what? Sheriff Keith is a drunk, horny git – just like Dr Victor Whalenstein is a bit of a tart regardless of whether he’s cursed or not.
Do you think Regina really came up with particularly detailed cover stories for everyone who came to Storybrooke? She claims she brought only the people she wanted to, but seriously…. she brought a LOT of random people she never met. And we’ve never met. We keep meeting these people – the bar tender at the Rabbit Hole, the Sheriff of Nottingham, the random population that fills up Granny’s every morning, noon and night…. we don’t know their stories. We have no idea what, if anything, they ever did to Regina to warrant being cursed. I get the feeling that a lot of flotsam accompanied Regina and her pet torture subjects in this curse. As so often is the case with Evil Regal, she thinks she had it all at her command, but she didn’t.
