ABC's Once Upon a Time - Part 5

[spideyboy_1111]

Hmmm... Turns to COLD? Well, given the show's proclivities and history of bending character origins to their needs, and Abagail showing up tonite... Maybe this Snow Queen is Midas' OTHER daughter? Again... I would love to see the Greek pantheon be a bigger part of things and such a contrivance would make that possible.

Well truth be told Ariel is a good way to introduce the Greek Gods with Triton being the son of Poseidon in Greek myth

Well they set up the whole, "will Belle find out the dagger is a fake/will Rumple have the truth about Zeleena revealed" angle for next season along with Regina and Robin's complications. I'd say those are going to be two of the larger issues at play when the show comes back. Speaking of romantic complications... Isn't it time Henry started a budding romance with another character? And... Are we ever going to find out what Mulan did after her departure from Aurora and Philip?

Abigail returned because Emma and Hook went back in time to just before Snow and Charming met, and her appearance in Storybrooke was to 'telegraph' that (as was the conversation about how Snow and Charming first met as prompted/facilitated by Henry's storybook.

It was also stated that Abigail was an only child back in the first season.

What if she is Jefferson's Wife/Grace's Mom

Ehh... Regina was an only child too. Until....

Just saying, those sort of things are commonplace in fairy tales AND soap operas, and brother, that's what kind of mashup the show is so...

... Still bothers me Aurora was at grannys for another babies celebration... The day she gave birth to her own... The girls crazy!

Dr. Whale's maternity ward at the hospital has some REEEAAALLLY good meds.

It was never explicitly said that Regina was an only child.

The same cannot be said of Abigail.

The finale was so so for me. I didn't recognize Marian so I figured she'd be next season's villain. I'm not excited for Regina vs Marian because I thought she did a lot of growing this season and like her with Robin.

I preferred the Peter Pan tease as it was actually set up, but I'm interested in what they'll do with Elsa. Hope Pan and Zelena are out their somewhere and we see a team up with other big bads.

Is it just me, or was Emma really tall for a pre-teen? (since she would've been around 11 or 12 in that flashback at the start of Snow Drifts)

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Emma's got them super-magical FTL genes.

Are you talking about the Portland flashback? Cause there is no way she was 11 or 12. I thought she met Neal in her 20s.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Yeah, young Emma in Portland seemed like a girl in her mid teens who'd gone through her first adolescent growth spurt.

 

[DigificWriter]

Are you talking about the Portland flashback? Cause there is no way she was 11 or 12. I thought she met Neal in her 20s.

The Portland flashback is from There's No Place Like Home and happened when she was 17 (in between the events in Tallahassee where she first meets Neal by stealing the already-stolen Bug and when we see them robbing a convenience store).

I'm talking about the Boston-set flashback from Snow Drifts where she and the other group home kids watch one of their own be adopted.

She was supposed to be 11 or 12 in that scene since it happened 18 years before the present-day.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Well for tonite's episode, when it started that girl looked to be between 14-18yrs old. So, if Emma, given the time that's past since the show's start and taking into account the year or so she had with Henry in NYC, is around 32-33 years old now then, sure, that girl looked the right age to me.

 

[DigificWriter]

^ Emma would, at most, be 29 in the present (depending on whether or not she celebrated a birthday during her and Henry's year in NY), so she would've been 11 or 12 in the Boston flashback.

Seasons 1, 2, and 3a all took place over no more than 8 or 9 months.

That scene must have happened when I was putting the laundry in the dryer cause I dont remember it at all.

 

[DigificWriter]

^ It was the very first scene of "Snow Drifts" (aka Hour 1 of the finale).

Well then Henry must have dem super-magical FTL genes too, cuz... That's a big 12 year old kid.

 

[DigificWriter]

^ He'd be 13 now because he'd turned 12 by the start of Season 3.

Emma COULD possibly be 30, but it's more likely that she's only 29.

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

Could we get some confirmation on the first 3 season's being less than a year in length? I just assumed that by now the show had caught up to more or less real time.

 

[Sawyer]

I can't wait until the die-hard Regina lovers (coughMiloscough) start vilifying Emma for reuniting a woman with her husband and child, rather than allowing Regina to continue enjoying a love affair with a man she turned into a widower in the first place.

Loved the two-parter. LOVED. And that ending tease.
