Once Upon a Time - Second Star to the Right: Quick Thoughts

May 06, 2013 10:05

Oddly enough weekends are terrible times to finish up and post big, complicated entries. My family wants attention and my husband wants attention and there PROJECTS to complete. *g* However, my garage is sparkling. As is my bedroom and bathroom. So that's all good! And I do have the Lacey review basically done except for the formatting so that will ( Read more... )

Wendy totally founded Home No-Magic Depot! Totally. :-)

Baelfire. That poor guy.

I'm not sure about what Rumpel wants. It's interesting in his scenes he seems to be thinking, "Um, this is not really Belle and kinda wrong". But then she seems into it and he's like, "Oh, sod it, let's go."

But Belle can't be his only Evil/Magic Anonymous sponsor. I was sad about him and Bae too. He looked for Bae so long and hard only to lose him anyway.

All that said, I like Gold/Lacey too. It's wrong but I'm wondering if they've slept together. After Cora, I never really know what's going on offscreen!

I'm not much impressed with the whole 'secret organization' plot itself but I do rather love that Bae (of all people) got it started just so it could show up to completely fuck up his life ( ... )

Poor Bae. I'm so with the little boys in this series. They have a rough life. Bae, Pinnochio, Owen. Even Henry was getting second-degree burns in his dreams not too long ago. And almost died via accidentally poisoning from his mom. Kids have rough life in fairy tales. And Storybrooke ( ... )

I thought this was really good! Might have to go back and rewatch it again. I'm getting over a bad sinus infection and the cough won't go away!

I haven't thought about Wendy founded the Home Office. It would make sense.

Take care of yourself! And it might be worth watching again in advance of the finale. I'm sure there are little details in the episode which will make more sense when we see the rest. :)

Yeah, I didn't think of it at first but then it hit me and it fit together too well not be where they are going. I do rather like the circularity of it. As in the Doctor causing Torchwood to be founded.

I really loved the twist they did on Peter Pan where he's actually kidnapping all the boys from families, not just picking up kids that didn't have them. The idea that Wendy founded the Home Office sounds very plausible, considering the circumstances under which Bae disappeared.

I hope we get to see more of his adventures in Neverland, though! My first thought after he ran into Hook was, "I wonder if Killian would've just finished him off if he knew he was Rumple's son, or if he'd save him because he knew he was also Milah's son."

Also, as much as I like Lacey, I'm worried once she returns to her true self she'll spurn Gold because he did such terrible things for her Lacey self. Hmmmm.

Indeed. This was quite a scary and creepy version of Peter Pan. It would be interesting if they were to bring more of that element to the show. Though I don't know it would work at this point since the show has been a mix of violent and fluffy but not really creepy.

Oh, I'm sure we will, at least in this next episode. After that may be tough since the actor is aging but Bae is not. They would have to give an arc early next season for it to work.

I always though Hook would save him. Not only is he Milah's son but he is an excellent opportunity to hurt Rumpel but turning Bae against him even more. Would Bae have been running from Rumpel if he hadn't met Hook? He was angry at being abandoned while with the Darlings but didn't seem to be trying to avoid him at that point.

I'm not! They may have issues and fallout (though NO ONE else did after the curse broke) but Gold is clearly walking a line on being nasty enough for Lacey without going too far. She may have some issues about having memories of enjoying his evil ways but it's not as ( ... )

We saw Wendy in the finale? I don't remember that.

Huh? Oh. I guess I'm thinking of the last two episodes together as the season finale. They seem to be two parts of the same story. I have no idea if Wendy is in the last episode of the season since I haven't seen it yet. :)
