"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

OUaT watchers, do we know who the doctor is in fairytale world? Does anyone have any theories? I'm a couple weeks behind but catching up now.

The hospital doctor. I thought Red was the big bad wolf as well as being Red Riding Hood? Which whale? The one from pinocchio?

Red/Ruby is the wolf from her story, isn't she?

I assumed she was the big bad wolf from all the tales, since he is also the wolf from Peter and the Wolf. I could be wrong.

One more question, was the blue fairy the same fairy Rumplestillskin killed in the Cinderella story or was that a different fairy?

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

I think that was a different fairy, but I'm not sure. We didn't see her for very long and that was a while ago.

Back before we knew this, the guess was that Dr. Whale was the big bad wolf, because of being a "wolf" with women. But the name and the fact that the hospital he runs contains a lot of comatose patients, effectively swallowed, led to the guess that he is the whale from Pinnochio.

I didn't even realize that was his name. I think I'm only half paying attention when I watch most of the time.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

The Blue Fairy is alive and well in Storybrooke. She's the head nun.

So, we now know about 3 children who escaped into our world ahead of the curse, Emma, Pinoccio and Ruplestilskin's son. Since Pinoccio doesn't seem to have encountered Emma before as an adult, can we bet that the other kid might be Henry's father?
