Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.

Ah, I didn't know that. (And thank God I didn't say that they sucked.)

All is well that ends in pizza.
The curse was supposed to transport everyone, but Rumplestiltskin said something to her about it would leave her with a void she could not fill, I think.. So she adopted Henry.
I think it's all "be careful what you wish for" in this case.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I maintain anyone who orders the murder of another person and seeks to eat that person's heart is going to be a miserable bitch in any dimension.
That person cannot be fixed.

I think the doctor is the big bad wolf.

yes. I bet you are right. lusting after little red riding hood is a tipoff.

Yup, Sark is the Big Bad Wolf.
They're taking inspiration from Tex Avery?
Ha! Apparently so
LeN exactly.
Question: Rumpelstiltskin remembers everything, correct? That's how he knows to use "please" to get Regina to do what he wants. Or does she remember too? That's the only thing I don't exactly get.
Is her first name Snow and her last name White?
IIRC her name is Princess Snow White (no last name) because the Queen wished for a daughter with skin as white as snow, lips as red as blood, and hair as dark as ebony. Or something like that. Now I feel like I need to see who has my grandmother's copy of the Grimm fairy tales. Probably my aunt...hummm...

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I am not sure if Rump remembers EVERYTHING. it is like he kinda has hints or something. The mayor does seem to know what is going on. But why would she need to consult the book at all?

It is confusing then. I really hope they go into that, and where the book came from and why Regina doesn't just trash the book and be done with it (maybe she can't???)

IIRC her name is Princess Snow White (no last name) because the Queen wished for a daughter with skin as white as snow, lips as red as blood, and hair as dark as ebony.
The way I remember it, Snow White's mother pricked her finger while she was doing some embroidery, and when she saw the red blood on the snowy white linen (with black embroidery thread? I'm not sure) she knew she'd have a child with skin as white as snow and lips as red as blood (and hair as black as night? I have a mental block about the hair or something). Or maybe wished for it. And I often get the stories of Snow White and Snow White and Rose Red confused, so I could be doing that now.
