I think the pair is awesome. The look Whale gave Red when she said she ate her boyfriend was absolutely priceless.

I loved how for half a second she looked at him like, “Get your mind out of the gutter,” before moving the conversation along. 😆

PS. Whatever David tweeted, I still think Frankenwolf has a better ring to it than WhaleWolf. Frankenwolf sounds like a super cool combo monster. WhaleWolf is what you’d call their offspring.

Frankenwolf is a fun name 😀 but in the long run, people will ship them whatever they like best. For me, I prefer WhaleWolf just as I prefer FireSwan to NealSwan. Most fans will know who we mean regardless of what ship we use, so as long as people know who we are talking about, it should all be good. 😉 😀

I know some people here like to ship Frankenwolfe but David Anders tweeted he prefers WhaleWolf. So WhaleWolf it is! 😉

David Anders ‏@QuestionAnders
WhaleWolf is the best “ship”(whatever that is) that I’ve heard…After friendship-It’s the best ship-It’s a schooner that u ride with a chum

Yeah, she’s in the S1 finale, too, so this will make her 3rd appearance.

Jefferson gives her the spiked tea and knocks her out so he can get to Belle.

In the movie, Nurse Ratched kept all the patients drugged.

Medication time, medication time gentlemen, medication. 😆

I don’t know if she actually *is* Nurse Ratched as part of the show’s storyline. I think she was just made to resemble her as a gag- a nod to the character, but it remains to be seen if she actually behaves like her.

Perhaps, however, considering that her appearance matches the notorious Nurse Ratched and that she was, in fact, the nurse that oversaw the psychiatric ward for the SB Hospital, I’d lay my money down on her being one nasty piece of business.

Apparently some people are even speculating that her fairy tale character may be Ursula. 😉

Phee is absolutely right.
That was a def nod to One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest.

Ken Keasey wrote the novel and was friends with Jack Kerouac.

Jack Kerouac used the Real Neal Cassady as inspiration for his character Dean Moriarty in his novel ‘On the Road’.

Keasey used Neal as inspiration for the character Mac in ‘One Flew Over the Cuskoo’s Nest’.

Love how they connect everything 🙂

LOL! Gypsy! I started my post, stepped away for a phone call, came back, posted and then saw your post! Too funny! 😆

But one question, how do we know she is Nurse Ratched. I’d never heared of her before so I did a search on her, and from what I read she’s a mean lady. But I don’t know what points to the nurse being her?

She looks exactly like her (the hair style is a dead giveaway) and K&H confirm it in this interview (about 20 seconds in): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H3coE2hSXTU

Anyone who has seen the movie, One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest, would have automatically recognized the Severe Nurse as Louise Fletcher’s Nurse Ratched. That hair was a dead giveaway! 😆

Her appearance, in Skin Deep, was immediately followed by the appearance of Chief Bromden (the custodian pushing a mop in the hospital basement) from the movie Cuckoo’s Nest. Brad Dourif, who got his first big role playing Billy in the movie, also played the beggar/Zoso in Desperate Souls. The author of the book, Ken Kesey, based the main character McMurphy on the real Neal Cassady and of course OUAT’s Neal Cassidy is based on the real Neal Cassady as well.

I love how K&H throw out these nods to the literary greats such as Kesey and Kerouac. I just hope we get to see a scene, at some point, where someone actually offers the custodian (Chief Bromden) a piece of Juicy Fruit Gum. 😆

I wonder if the werewolf that bit Granny was from there…

Interesting idea. One of the things I liked about Ruby being the one to bond with Whale was how it was a play on the classic pairing of Frankenstein and the Wolfman.

I’ve always thought of Victor’s world as a fictional Transylvania (Wolfman, Dracula and Frankenstein). I was hoping in Child of the Moon that we’d find out they all originated from there.

Speaking of Gothic fiction:
Just read that ABC ordered a pilot for “Gothica”, a series which is decribed as a ” gothic soap opera” including elements and figures from Gothic fiction, meaning Frankenstein, Dracula, Jekyll & Hyde, Dorian Gray and others.

ABC’s really on a role with fantasy/sci-fi these days. We have Zero Hour coming and now Gothica. Certainly hope Storybrooke doesn’t lose their good Dr. Frankie to a lead in a spin off series. 😮
