Ok, this episode was the mid season finale for Once Upon a Time. I really hate mid season finales, but I guess without them, the season would be over a lot more quickly than normal. And we'd still be upset.
So on with what happened this episode. I was kind of freaking out about Hook, and thought he was gonna die for sure. But like someone said on OUAT's Facebook page, this all could have been Gold's plan all along. Make people think he was going to use Hooks heart, and then really Belle sending him across the line, separated him from the Dagger, which is all he cared about in the first place. And now he has all his powers, and is separated from the Dagger. But I don't think that he expected Belle to show up. He looked really surprised and very sad when he was forced across the line. I think he still has a plan, but the only way I see it working is with his magic that he still has, and people think he lost. But now that he can not get his happy ending, him wanting to find the author of the book is just like Regina wanting to find the author. And in order to do that he has to get back to Storybrooke. But how is he going to do that?? Also if this was all planned, he wouldn't be wanting to get to the author of the book, he'd be content with all the magic he has, and being separated from the dagger. But he still might want to get to Storybrooke, to get back at Belle or to get his happy ending with Belle. So it's all very interesting, and there's all kinds of theories.
Another thing that happened in this episode was that the Frozen arc ended. Elsa and Anna went back to Arendale and had their happy ending finally. Of course Disney will probably show things differently in Frozen 2. But at least we have a different view on things. And OUAT's views on fairy tales are pretty awesome. There wasn't much about Snow White and Prince Charming in this episode, just them showing up to help stop Gold, and be there when Elsa and Anna went back home. Another thing to think about is, that Gold did not want Anna talking with anyone, because of what she knew about him, so I'm guessing the only reason he told them about the portal to Arendale was to get rid of them, so maybe Anna wouldn't spill the beans, but that didn't work. And it could have all been part of Gold's plan to separate him from the dagger... guess we won't know until March. =(
But wait something else happened this episode, and it involved Robin Hood and Regina. I was so hoping Robin Hood and Regina were good to go. But Marian came down with a frozen heart again, WHY>?? I don't get this at all. Something seems strange about it. I was hoping that Regina would have her happy ending, but proud of her for doing the right thing. And another thing I thought about having to do with Gold's plan, why would he tell Regina he was leaving?? Why tell her that he's getting his happy ending with Belle?? Kind of adds to the theories about him being aware of what was going to happen all along, that maybe he does still have his powers and is going to return to Storybrooke with three more villains.
Again, guess we have to wait till March. =( I hate mid season finales!! But at least we can look forward to a few more Villains, including the return of Maleficent!!
