Just watched the episode and thank god for an awesome one! I've been falling off the series this season because it hasn't been too interesting to me. They cut Jekyll and Hyde too quickly and now all other LoUS characters are forgotten too. HUGE missed opportunity.

Anyways, Gideon and the Black Fairy got me into this again. I think Gideon was manipulating Belle in her dreams from the start. He wanted Belle to send him off with Blue Fairy because he knew Black Fairy would take him. Question is why does he want to kill Emma and why is he evil?

Pros:

- The sword has to be magical somehow for harming EQ but not Regina. Loved that discovery.

- All the consequences for making a wish was great.

- Stoked for Gideon and Black Fairy

- Hooded figure is NOT Jafar. I swear turning EQ into a viper was a dead give away.

- No GoldenQueen!

- The wishes from multiple people wasn't a huge problem to me. I thought it was realistic. If someone takes the lamp, they are the new master, previous master doesn't get anymore wishes anymore.

- PRICE HENRY! (His princess HAS to be Violet)

- Excited to learn about the Dark Realm.

Cons:

- Aladdin and Jasmine still getting snuffed even though the show promoted them pre-season is very disappointing. Are we ever going to focus on them and Agrabah? Jafar?

- Animation of Regina walking in the Wish Realm that recreated the pilot scene was HORID!

- WR Emma was very pathetic.

- Really Regina! You KNOW the WR is not real but you let the portal close just to see FAKE Robin Hood!?! ARG!!

We'll see how long Emma and Regina are trapped in the Wish Realm but it better not be for an episode or two like it seems to always be. I swear Wish Realm Rumple will come into play. He was WAY too cooperative.
