Once Upon a Time Spoilers about a Valentine’s Day
Episode, The Mirror, Henry’s Father

Looking for Once Upon a Time spoilers? Inside
you’ll learn about upcoming featured characters (The Mirror!), the possibility
of major deaths on the show, and other future storylines that will be explored
(like Grumpy, the Sheriff’s identity and Henry’s Father.)

When Jane Espenson did a live chat with CliqueClack during
“The Still Small Voice” (an episode she wrote) she revealed several great
Once Upon a Time Spoilers for the ABC series. We’ve combed
through the extensive chat records to pinpoint what those spoilers are.
Enjoy!

Once Upon a Time Spoilers

• There will be no special Christmas episode of Once Upon a Time but there
  will be a Once Upon a Time Valentine’s Day episode. “We like old pagan-y
  holidays.” So look for other pagan holidays to be worked into the show.


• Future Once Upon a Time characters will include Hansel and Gretel.


• There will be a reveal of the Sheriff identity and it’ll be juicy. We’ll
  also learn about Billy the Mechanic.


• We will learn how Snow White affected the Queen’s life more than we already
  know. “That’s not a mystery that we will hold for years.”

More after the magical jump!

More Once Upon a Time ABC Spoilers

• “You know who’s getting a GREAT ep later? The Mirror.”


• Grumpy the dwarf has a backstory we’ll learn about.


• Emilie de Ravin will be Belle. She’ll interact with the Beast, Gaston and
  her Father, Maurice.


• We’ll have a story about Aladdin.


• Because Once Upon a Time is made with ABC/Disney there is permission to use
  Disney characters and names such as the dog being named Pongo.


• Once Upon a Time Henry’s Father and his identity? We don’t know who Henry’s
  real father is yet, but we will definitely learn that.


• “Major deaths? Well, we can’t kill a
  character in Fairy Tale Land if they are also in Storybrooke. Unless we get
  super tricky.”


• “Has everyone in town made a deal with Rumple? I’d say no — the town is
  bigger than you think. But it’s an interesting question.”


• Jane Espenson has also written season 1 episode 8, episode 12 and episode
  15. She also might write one more for this season.

I love Jane Espenson!

[babettew54.livejournal.com]

Yes, she knows her fairy tales. Last week's eppy was truly amazing!:D

[akisswithafist.livejournal.com]

Can't wait for some Beauty & the Beast! :)

[babettew54.livejournal.com]

Oh, me too! It's a timeless tale and one of my all-time favorites only because it's so recent in my mind, plus that DVD got a serious workout!

I may pull it out again and soon!:D

ME TOO SO EXCITED

[aleysiasnape.livejournal.com]

I'm looking forward to finding out who Henry's father is!

[babettew54.livejournal.com]

Yes, Henry's father ... can't wait for that.

And I find it interesting, they'll be telling us what happened between Snow and the queen... and so soon. Good idea if you ask me.

[litlover12.livejournal.com]

I'd hate to break it to her that Valentine's Day has some pretty major Christian associations. :-)

[dontbitethesun.livejournal.com]

LOL, that's what I was thinking! Also, that Christmas used to be Saturnalia which is pretty pagan.

[babettew54.livejournal.com]

I wondered about that, but now that you mention 'Satarnalia', it could go either way. But I'm definitely looking forward to that episode.

[litlover12.livejournal.com]

BTW, I posted a picture of Emilie de Ravin as Belle yesterday -- don't know why my post was never published. Mods . . . ?

Anyhow, here it is again:

[babettew54.livejournal.com]

Yes, I saw that photo ... a first here.

Thanks for linking it! It's the same dress, isn't it? It is! :D

[richyl88.livejournal.com]

Wow! Lots to look forward to. I can't wait for Beauty and the beast. I never really thought about Henery's father but now I'm wondering if it is imporant.

[babettew54.livejournal.com]

It is a lot to look forward it. It appears now we'll get the full batch of episodes for a 'full' season! Very exciting.

Beauty and the Beast should be an amazing episode. I keep remembering the 'witch' at the beginning of the story, but now with that recent photo of Belle, he's in her busiiness.

I'll say it again, Rumple gets around ... seriously! :D

[owlsarenotwise.livejournal.com]

I'm thinking that Billy is the Beast. He could also be the wolf because he hangs around with Ruby a lot... but what if he's the Beast and in Storybrooke he's cursed to be shallow? I don't know. It's not the best theory. I don't love the idea of Little Red Ridinghood's attacker being her friend in Storybrooke. But I also don't love the idea of Ruby being considered the "shallow" pick. Aah!

[babettew54.livejournal.com]

Interesting theory, but I don't think any of these characters in the B&B story have been introduced yet. I may be wrong.

I agree about LRRH... Ruby may be acting opposite of her fairy-tale counterpart. That would make sense.

We'll see what happens... can't wait for these characters to be fleshed out in the real world..! :D

[owlsarenotwise.livejournal.com]

There was a spoiler on Tumblr that said we already knew the Beast but I don't remember what the source was.

[babettew54.livejournal.com]

Ohhhh!!! Now, that's intriguing... but I like that he's already in town ...! *ponders* I have no idea who it could be! :D
