EMMA BELIEVES IN THE FIRST FIVE SECONDS!!!! I did not see that coming, but it was awesome.
GRAHAM!!!!! I literally squealed when he pulled off his helment, mostly because my gaggle of friends were still sort of calming down about finally getting to watch it and I didn't call it. Oh, I wish he wasn't dead!!!
I wish I could see the scene where Emma puts those pieces together... hah!
And dayum.... he can wear that outfit for every appearance hereafter.
"It's your father's sword."
Commence chills of delight.
August!
Interesting that the library, of all places, is bolted up?
"I'm gonna need a smaller egg." *splorfs*
EMMA FIGHTS A DRAGON WITH A SWORD!! AND THEN SHE TRIES A GUN BECAUSE SHE'S EMMA BUT OF COURSE IT DOESN'T WORK SO SHE HAS TO GO BACK TO THE SWORD AND SHE KILLS MALEFICENT THE EXACT SAME WAY THAT PRINCE PHILLIP DID!!!!!!
My little Disney Nerd heart just about exploded inside me!!!!!!
I suppose Jefferson knew about the evil secret hospital basement because of his magic spyglass?
For some reason, when Rumplestiltskin changed Charming's outfit, I cracked up.
And everything else, in a rush... Emma breaking the curse! Belle and Rumples' reunion! Snow and Charming's reunion! Purple clouds of magic gushing from the wishing well. The return of Regina's evil smile.
Guh. So much possibility.
I loved it. All of it. Almost every moment. I love this show so much. I'm almost terrified for S2 because S1 tied up like a symphony in a big red bow (with the exception of a proper reunion between Emma and her parents, but I can see how there really wasn't room for it).
I love Lana Parilla. As the season has progressed, her performance has gotten more and more enjoyable just to watch. I love Regina as a villain, how she's psychotic and yet how her love for Henry and Daniel gives her that sympathetic thread necessary for not just good villains but masterful ones.
And all of them! I love all of them!
Is it September yet?
