I think some of you people are a bit hypercritical, do you really know what it's like to world build? Every serialized thing I've ever read or watched has had rule creep, where rules are not established until they are needed to be, and not broken until they are needed to be. And of all the things, I think Once deserves the most leadway, because it is working with multiple established worlds. If they didn't put in magic portal shoes from Oz, would any of us been okay with that? No, because that is one of the things you want to see when Oz is portrayed. So I am willing to say: I suppose this could have happened that way, or that could have happened off screen, or this character could of said that knowing what the answer was going to be from the other character, etc., to keep the plot holes small, and to allow the show to continue introducing new characters and new worlds, and for me to still enjoy it. And honestly, the show does a good job of keeping everything straight, we haven't seen a major slip up so far, that can not be explained by something at a later time. The fact that they are even most likely going to even explain the recast of Robin Hood, shows the commitment the writers have to having a cohesive narative. Anyway, that's my two cents.
