Season 4, yes? I'd be more certain, if mid-season breaks didn't sometimes get as long as between-season breaks. {others are worse than OUAT, i grant you}
I liked the episode...it answered lingering questions I had.
* one of which concerned how Robin and Marian met.
* even when you think Robin hasn't noticed, he has.
* WHERE IS MULAN??
* "Because today is not one of those days."
part of me swears that that's from one of the various Robin Hood movies. is it?
* bingo! people haven't feared Emma because The Savior almost never used magic in public. (and any who might've said something, kept quiet because Emma's parents were their king and queen)
* so, basically...the Snow Queen just uncorked Emma and her powers?
* *groans* good god...is there anything that Rumplestiltskin hasn't caused?
* how much you want to bet that Gold knows exactly why his grandson is working at the shop? :)
* so help me if the price is Henry's life (again)
{Belle's, this time, maybe?}
* another reason to hate Weselton. {if that guy wasn't doing an Alan Tudyk impression the entire time, I'd be very surprised}
* it's very awkward when the baddies have a good point: "the kingdom will love my sister!" "then why has she been hidden?"
* ah, one good thing to come from her deal with Rumplestiltskin - she therefore had a reason to find out what makes him tick: the Dagger.
