That was an awesome call to the fairy tale, especially considering all the changes they've made.

Date: 2012-02-13 02:00 am (UTC)I wonder how many people Regina has locked up in various places. (And why did that janitor look like Snape?)
Does anyone else think the Snow White and Charming thing is going a bit slow, dragging?

Date: 2012-02-13 02:06 am (UTC)I like this episode more than I thought I would! And I've realized that even if someone died in fairytale land, they end up still being alive in the real world. Which leads me to wonder where Gaston is!

Date: 2012-02-13 02:07 am (UTC)Frankly, I've had enough of episodes where the fairy tales are very insulated from the main characters and storylines. Hansel and Gretel, Cinderella....they come and do their thing and then pretty much disappear into the background. So I liked that this one both brought in a new character/fairy tale, but tied into the long term story line as well.

Date: 2012-02-13 02:21 am (UTC)I liked how he got rid of Gaston, the Chip reference, and the Ariel reference. I'm also glad they've finally confirmed that Gold does remember being Rumpelstilstikn; I always suspected he did but I'm glad they confirmed it.
Do you think Belle remembers? Also, I wonder how many people Regina has locked down there.

Date: 2012-02-13 02:24 am (UTC)What I want to know is what the Queen did to Belle (because I'm not buying the story she gave to Rumpel even for a minute) and how she found out about the cup.
Excellent episode and I seriously loved how they did their version of Beauty and Beast. Power vs. Love. A tragedy now but maybe happiness in the future? And there is going to be hell to pay once Rumpel finds out.

i loved the way Mr. Gold's home looked much like the man himself, classy, yet understated. makes me wonder what kind of car he drives.

Date: 2012-02-13 02:37 am (UTC)I think so, too, about Gold. You would expect more from such a power house, much like EQ changed her home to reflect her. I'd bet he drives an older car. Not necessarily anything flashy. Something like a classic Bentley or Rolls.
