From the ABC press release at the time

Feeling their pain from having lived through the same experience, Emma desperately tries to help two homeless children find their birth father before they're separated and put into the foster care system. Meanwhile, back in the fairytale world that was, the Evil Queen coerces Hansel and Gretel into stealing an important artifact from a blind witch.

1. Did you see this live or was it later?

2.What do you remember most about the episode?

3.Did you find anything surprising when you rewatched it? Like “Oh that’s where they set that up” or “I had forgotten that ______ happened here”

4. How much did you think we found out about Emma from this episode? Did it change how you looked at the character?

5. Emma Caufield played the blind witch. How scary was she to you? Or did she feel like the villain of the week?

6. This is the episode that Emma tells Henry about his dad. Did you find that believable and so were surprised when other facts came to light?

7. Emma finds a way to get the kids back together with their dad. How do you think that relationship went before the curse was broken?

8. Where your surprised that Regina would use children to get what she wants? Or by this point was it “evil” and move on?

9. We know Gold has every magical object catalogued at least in his head, how the heck did he know about the compass since it never crossed his path before Emma showing it to him?

Live :)

2.What do you remember most about the episode?

I just watched it a few weeks ago on DVD and had already forgotten what it was about. When I read the synopsis, it was like, "Oh yeah! Blind Witch!" :p

3.Did you find anything surprising when you rewatched it? Like “Oh that’s where they set that up” or “I had forgotten that ______ happened here”

See #2. LOL

4. How much did you think we found out about Emma from this episode? Did it change how you looked at the character?

I did like her determination to protect the kids from "the system". I especially liked how MM reacted to Emma's vigilance, considering she didn't yet know she was her mother.

5. Emma Caufield played the blind witch. How scary was she to you? Or did she feel like the villain of the week?

Scary as hell! I wanted to see more of her! Though, at first, I thought she was Maleficent; I didn't realize it was two different actresses right away, the way they had her made up.


6. This is the episode that Emma tells Henry about his dad. Did you find that believable and so were surprised when other facts came to light?

In hindsight, it makes the business with Henry and his father's identity interesting because of how thoroughly she lied to Henry! :o


7. Emma finds a way to get the kids back together with their dad. How do you think that relationship went before the curse was broken?

That had to have been super awkward since - even in the end - Emma tricked the father into showing up with the tow truck. Although, I wonder if she faked the car trouble, or if that was the curse not letting her out of town with them?


8. Where your surprised that Regina would use children to get what she wants? Or by this point was it “evil” and move on?

I think Regina was very desperate to get what she wanted and didn't care that they were children. She was so dark by then, what did she care?


9. We know Gold has every magical object catalogued at least in his head, how the heck did he know about the compass since it never crossed his path before Emma showing it to him?

He sees the past and future. And with such an interest in the Savior, he'd know all. :)

OoooOOOOOOOoooooo I had forgotten his glimpse into the future power. Good one.

Only remembered because of having watched the one with The Seer last week. ;)
