I felt that this episode provided even more necessary background to Gold/ Rumple's character. I'm so glad it's back!
Originally Posted By Autopia Deb Yes, more insight into why Rumplestilkin/Gold does what he does and did what he did is a very good thing. In fact I think his back story is more important than Regina's (as interesting as that has been).
Originally Posted By Kennesaw Tom EmmaJayne you may be right. It would much more intresting if you were correct and August wasn't Bey or Pinocchio. Sorry about the confusion with Henry, I ment Bey and not Henry in my posts.

Originally Posted By Scutr Emma, this is what i posted on 4/23 regarding the Pinocchio Theory: >>.I think he's Pinocchio. I've been looking for that iconic Disney character to pop up in the series all along. At one point I thought the sheriff might be him, but dismissed that fairly early. (correctly, it turned out) But last nights epi, made me think I might have it this time. Remember at one point he mentioned knowing a certain "Blue Fairy". He also seemed to have a mobility issue with his legs - could be his imminent "death" concerns his turning back into a wooden boy instead of a real one?<< Beyond that, I can't point to anything that made me suspect that's who he is except the fact that that one character was missing from the story so far and that seemed to be a glaring omission. Nice to see I was right. My problem with the show is - I wish they would finish it! I hate to see them try to milk this plot for another whole season and suck the life out of it. That's one thing I admire about British television, it seems like they're not afraid to take a show's concept to its natural conclusion and just end it. Whether that's 22 episodes or 36 or however many it takes.

I couldn't agree with you more about them dragging it on. I watch alot of British tv and have always admired their well written but short seasons. I've never understood why the US feels the need to have 22 episodes per season of a show. I feel like Once Upon a Time has one strong episode and then two fillers before another good one. There is too much un-necessary junk. I feel like this season is almost over without much actually happening.
Originally Posted By EmmaJayne Well you were right. I have to say I felt a little dissapointed at first when it became clear that's where the episode was going ( honestly, the moment I saw Jiminy on the opening titles I knew) but in the end I felt this was actually one of the better episodes. I really enjoyed this one and felt like we were finally getting some answers. My fiance, watching with me, was more interested in when the Blue Fairy was going to show up again and continued to ask why we could see so much cleavage.. and why she was dressed like a jellyfish. I thought it was interesting that Emma just couldnt see his leg. I wonder if this is part of her just not wanting responsibility for everyone's happy ending or if it's actually part of the curse to make the saviour unable to believe. There were a few flaws in the episode but all up, one of the better ones. I felt like maybe it was all starting to move forward again.

Originally Posted By lesmisfan for some reason i thought last night was the grand finale and i was like, not a cliff hanger but then they showed that there is one more episode left. When gina gave emma the turnover I knew exactly what was going to happen.
Originally Posted By Kennesaw Tom I haven't seen last Sundays episode yet... but I have it recorded. I always like The Charmings when Lillian would bake apple pies and no one would eat them.
Originally Posted By EmmaJayne Just finished watching it.. So I am confused about Jefferson.. I thought his previous episode alluded to him traveling through the hat and Emma vein magic? But tonight's episode gave us no indication of that at all. And I found that whole able to retrieve one object from their world through the hat thing just bizzarre. The snow white in fairy tale land plot was just blah.. We already know how it ends and I suppose all it really let us know was that whole asleep she was trapped in a nightmare of regrets. Actually the only part of this episode I liked was the ending.. Not for the same reasons as my fiancé who finds Henry painfully annoying and believe the long he is unconscious the better off we all are, but because at least it looks like the start of Emma getting somewhere with believing him. And August admitting defeat bothered me as well.. Actually most of this episode did.
