Thanks for the link. Gotta love those two for condensing as much as they can when it comes to characters.

Once Upon a Time Stars, Creators Tease a Huge Decision, Big Reveals and… Dorothy's Intro?

ABC’s Once Upon a Time very soon will shed some light on the casting of the curse that returned Regina, the Charmings et al to Storybrooke sans their memories of the past year, possibly noodle with a certain rugrat’s noggin and introduce as many as two more characters from the show’s riff on The Wizard of Oz.

In previewing Episode 19 — which airs next week, on April 27 — Josh Dallas revealed to reporters at WonderCon, “We’re going to go back and find out who cast this curse, so that’s going to be great. You’re going to know who cast the curse, you’re going to know why we’re all back and why none of us remember that missing that year.”

Also in that episode, Dallas previewed, “There’s going to be a decision made back in Fairy Tale Land, between Regina, Snow and Charming, that’s going to affect everyone.”

Is anyone else thinking what I’m thinking? That Zelena is not the one who uncorked this curse, that maybe Regina did it, in the name of a greater good?

Or, speaking of good, Rebecca Mader spoke at WonderCon of how in Episode 20, “We get to go back to Oz,” where we’ll meet the show’s take on two more characters from that tale — a historically kinder witch included. “Any minute now, Glinda (played by Sunny Mabrey) and Dorothy are coming, so that was really fun,” the British beauty teased. “It felt like Once Upon a Time in Oz.” So, maybe Glinda is named as the curse-caster at the close of Episode 19, her agenda detailed the week after…?

One of Season 3B’s other burning questions revolves around Henry’s muddled memories, which left him unaware of his Storybrooke life as he spent a year with birth mom Emma in New York City. Will he get back what he has lost, even though Emma believes the boy may be better off returning to his normal life in the Big Apple? “Henry’s memory issues will be decided before the end of the season,” series cocreaor Adam Horowitz assured, “one way or another.” Another mystery to be solved is the Wicked Witch’s plan for Snow White’s baby. Mader was very mum on that topic, other than to warn of “some dark stuff coming.”

On the romantic (?) front, tonight’s episode, “Bleeding Through,” appears to feature an Storybrooke smooch between Rumple and his captor – as Mader shared, “When those pictures came out, everyone on Twitter was like, ‘No! What about Belle?’ And I’m like, ‘Oops!’ – as well as movement on the Regina/Robin Hood front, thanks to Snow White’s stalwart wingman efforts. “Snow may be responsible for taking away the love of Regina’s life,” series cocreaor Eddy Kitsis noted, “but she’s responsible for pushing her toward a new one.”

Surveying the season’s final five episodes as a whole, Kitsis said, “From here on out, it is pretty much going to be a nonstop freight train of answers.” Added Horowitz, The Wicked Witch has some pretty devious plans, and they’re going to unfurl.” (With reporting by Scott Huver)

I'm kind of hoping that Zelena goes through with the spell just to changes thing radically next season.

Regina Snow stuff was great!
Poor Cora, Eva got what was coming to her!
Regina and Robin!

 

[Specter313]

Pfft, Cora was hardly the good guy or real victim. She clearly had her sights set on power and status, and lied to get herself there. Her lies about the pregnancy bit her in the ass, even though Ava was less than honorable about how she exposed it. It showed when she said to baby Zelena she was giving her up just to get more power. Neither side was more in the right.

And sorry, but Regina and Robin have little to no chemistry. At all. Couldn't care less about their relationship.

Decent ep though, had good character growth, shows that they're all more shades of grey than they thought.

And yes, it would be interesting if she does somehow get to go through with the curse, though maybe she goes back and kills someone other than Ava by accident.

 

[marvelrobbins]

They sure didn't go the obvious way with who Zelna's father was.

Ava Is completly different as young girl then she was as snow's mother.
Although it seems like they want audence to feel sorry for cora and regina
and make snow and her parents Into the monsters.

If the time travel plan works Regina,Snow,Emma,and Henry wouldn't exsist.

 

[PyroChamber]

I don't get that thing Snow said about being a brat, I think we all know that she was pretty much an angel as a kid.

Also, was Ava telling Leopold about Cora sometime before the moment she tripped Cora?

Rebecca Mader in her black dress = WOW!!!!

I am pretty sure Ava tripped Cora after she had Zelena.

 

[DigificWriter]

Yes, which adds a whole new dimension to both The Miller's Daughter and The Queen is Dead.

 

[O'Haire]

Rebecca Mader in her black dress = WOW!!!!

 

[DigificWriter]

Tonight's episode also adds a whole new dimension to The Stable Boy as well as to The Miller's Daughter and The Queen is Dead.

Disagree. I quite enjoy them together.

But yeah, I'm fairly sure that the way this season ends and sets up for Season 4 will have Zelena's plan somewhat succeed. Not the way she intends it to, as that would eliminate Snow, Regina, Emma and Henry as characters, but I'm thinking Emma uses her magic to go back with Zelena and prevent her from doing what she's doing and gets stuck/changes some point in the past. My preference would be to see Emma somehow prevent the first curse and end up in the FTL at the moment Charming sent her through the wardrobe. I'd love that, because it would be such a different dynamic between Emma and the rest of the characters. S1, everyone was cursed and she didn't believe. S2, everyone got their memories back and she only just started to believe. Now in S3, she's been out of the loop for a year and everyone lost their memories of what's been going on. It'd be great to see her with some knowledge that the rest of the characters don't have.

I think that's also how the Knave ends up on the show as well. At the end of OUAT in Wonderland, it made it sound like he had a very clear cut happy ending with Anastasia. The only way I could see the show using him is in some alternate timeline kind of thing.

 

[universeman]

Zelena should go back to where it all started with Bae and Rumple and the green vortex what if Rumple went with Bae this time that would change everything.

 

[A Dollar Short]

I don't get that thing Snow said about being a brat, I think we all know that she was pretty much an angel as a kid.

Last season we did see young Snow yell at Johanna for trying on her tiara. Eva then lectured her on that.

This was a great episode. I'm surprised by how much I'm loving this second half of the season. Robbie was great as Pan, but ultimately the character and his plan fell flat for me. I find Zelena much more interesting and it helps that Rebecca is having fun with the role. Is it wrong that I kinda don't want her to fail? I hope she's back next season.

 

[universeman]

The Villains was all doom from the start there all taking orders from this person but they don't know it yet, [BLACKOUT]aka the first Dark One Series Finale Him vs Henry like Harry vs Voldemort. That's what I think it is leaded up to. [/BLACKOUT]

Spoiler

 

[Milos]

It looks like Snow with Regina's help cast the curse using Charming's heart!

 

[Frodo]

Rebecca Mader in her black dress = WOW!!!!

Zelana and Rumple's relationship has too many kinky undertones for Disney imo.Lol.

 

[universeman]

She gets that look from her Dad RJ! the guy who played as her Dad played RJ from PR Jungle Fury his animal spirit was the Wolf.
