    ook at Blue. She’s the same as she was when Bae first encountered her.

    Right but she got swept up in the dark curse.  So she didn’t age for years.  Black Fairy as far as we know, did not.  Plus she lives in a realm where time flies and you age fast.  Is she immune to the dark realm’s faster time speed or do fairies just not age at all?

    Do we think they will show the “fight” between Blue and Black when Black takes Gideon?  Or is that not going to be important at all?

    I like that theory! Maybe they were born at the same time–light and dark. It’s very mythological.

    Everyone is related on this show.  I could get behind them being sisters.  However, if they are sisters, I would think that Blue, with all her alleged power, could detect her sister using Gideon this whole time.  Detect her presence in him if you will.

    By that logic, it wasn’t Emma’s job to tell Charming that Hook killed Robert. But she did so because she couldn’t hold the information against Hook and use her father as a pawn to get Hook to do what she wanted. Emma used Belle.

    Right, but Hook is her boyfriend.  And Charming is her father.  That’s different than Gold and Belle.  And I also don’t think it was her place to tell Charming.  I do think it was Hook’s.  But since Hook left, she felt compelled to tell him.  To me, that’s way different than using Rumple to get him to open the portal to the UW.  And she only used Rumple bc he was being a jerk and refused to do it willingly.  He could have just done her a solid when she asked him the first time nicely.  To me, this has literally nothing to do with Belle.  Let’s say you find out one of your best friends is getting cheated on by their significant other, and your friend doesn’t know, but you do.  Is it your responsibility to tell your friend?  My answer would be depends on how close you are to the friend.  Belle is not even close to the same level as Charming is in relation to Emma.  It makes sense that she would feel compelled to tell her father the secret bc A. it’s her father and B. her bf did it.  Why does she need to tell Belle anything.  It’s not her place to do that.  And if you want to argue that Emma was being selfish by using Rumple against Belle, then that’s fair.  I agree.  But perhaps Rumple should have been a nice person and helped her before he was stuck in a corner.

    Takes me back to the Season 2 days, when several people theorized if Tamara was Tiger Lily. Who’d have thought we’d be finally getting Tiger Lily 4 Seasons after that.

    Maybe Tiger Lily is Tamara’s daughter haha

    Since when does Snow White joke about killing an abused kid?

    Now this I agree with.  Emma’s comment, to me, felt off hand, and snarky and in character.  She obviously wouldn’t have killed Gideon after what he told her, but she was fed up and it showed.  But Snow, chiming in with what she said right after, was ridiculous, forced, and massively out of character.  It’s like they wanted to show Snow defending her daughter and standing up for her but wrote the worst line possible.

    I also took it as a “sarcastic” “snarky” “Emma” type comment. It certainly isn’t the first time that she has said something like this. She didn’t storm in there saying “I am going to kill Gideon – where is he?!”.  She was basically saying to Rumple and Belle in a roundabout way that they need to rein him in.  She primarily went there to ask questions, which she did.

    And this is how I felt as well.  People are taking her comments too literally in that scene.  She has said snarky stuff like this all the time.  It doesn’t mean she ever acts on them.  She was annoyed and she had every right to be.

    Well why do you think she was able to use Rumple?  She was able to blackmail him by saying that she would run immediately to Belle and tell her that he was the dark one again.  This was information that Belle had every right to know and would have been great if Emma was “savior” enough to let her know, but instead she decided to manipulate Rumple to go to the underworld and leave Belle in the dark in fact USING Belle.

    Yeah I just completely disagree with you on this.  She didn’t use Belle.  She blackmailed Rumple.  It’s not her business or her job to tell Rumple’s wife what Rumple is doing.  Belle had every right to know, but RUmple should be the one telling her, not Emma.  And if Rumple is too much of a coward to tell her himself, then Emma used that against him to get him to help.  Was that selfish?  Yeah perhaps.  But I definitely don’t view it as Emma “using” Belle.

    So if time moves different in black fairys realm does that mean decades have past in the few days it took Gideon to free her?

    Good question.  I’d say based on what we’ve been told, yeah absolutely.  Which begs the question, do fairies not age?  Bc she should be ancient.

    I agree there needs to be more character development.  I have always said that.  But they can have the story and show Hook finding his way to Neverland and still have character growth.  They just suck at it.  And character growth to me doesn’t necessarily equal plot.  There are plenty of actions characters take that make us squirm on this show but we always say it’s bc “plot.”  Their actions are serving the plot.  Which has nothing to do with character development. You can still have a plot that is stale without good character development.
