Whether Pan's curse or Regina undoing his curse counts as curses is debatable, but please do not write in caps. On this wiki, conversations do get heated when opinions clash, but they should always remain civil and respectful.

As for my two cents on the discussion, I'd say that Pan's curse was successful to a certain degree because he managed to gather and use all the ingredients and sacrificed Felix's heart. The curse's smoke was already going throughout town and would have engulfed everyone in it had Regina not undone the curse. The trickery part about Pan's curse is the fact it didn't engulf everyone *yet*, so it was technically not in full effect like the first curse when Regina cast it over everyone in the Enchanted Forest and the smoke took them to SB and erased their memories.

I'm more unsure about Regina undoing Pan's curse counting as a fourth curse, though. I do not agree that she cast another curse in order to counteract Pan's curse. Regina kept talking about how she was going to undo Pan's curse, but she never once elaborated by saying she was going to counteract it by casting a new curse. Even thinking of what Mr. Gold told her earlier about how only she (Regina) had the power to stop Pan's curse since she was the original curse caster, but he warned her that if she did it, there would be a grave price to pay. So when Regina passed out after taking the curse parchment, she learned what the price was. The price was that everyone would have to return to the Enchanted Forest. And by returning there, it would mean she would lose Henry. Regardless if it's perceived Regina did cast another curse to counteract Pan's curse, I think we can all agree that whatever she did is obviously not the exact duplicate of what she did the first time she cast the Dark Curse. For example, she had to sacrifice her father's heart for the first curse to work. It does not make sense to say Regina cast a second curse to neutralize Pan's curse, yet she did not have to sacrifice Henry's heart?
