My main question is why the creative team thought it would be a good idea to have flashback Jones brothers land on the exact same stretch of beach that Will and Alice did in "Trust Me" (exhibit A, exhibit B) and if they really thought no one would notice. I mean I understand they don't have much of a budget but would it have killed them to go twenty feet to the left to make it look like Wonderland and Neverland don't share a shoreline?

Also DEAR GOD WHAT TIME PERIOD IS HOOK FROM,  because thus far the FTR has largely been a fantasy-medievalish, but SUDDENLY, NINETEENTH CENTURY BRITISH NAVY. What?

I could see either Tink or Rumpel being in the other cage. Tink could've been captured easily on her way home and if Pan had the Lost Boys paint the insides of the cage with squid ink they could contain Rumpel easily enough. (If it's Rumpel it would fit with Pan's love of screwing with peoples' heads, too)

I am so done with Dreamshade. It's almost as rage-inducing as the ink plot in season two where it took them a billion years to figure out the ink was on the bloody paper. If it has a cure, say it has a cure upfront and make the difficulty either David's pigheadedness or that it's nigh-impossible to get to, or they reach the spring and the spring's gone (which would lend credence to Pan's insistence that magic is dying, too), or just use the "there's a cure but it only works in Neverland" thing from the start. Red herrings are cool; dead herrings are not. So now basically I'm lolling around waiting for the writers to pull something else out of nothing to make it so David suffers no real consequences because I've lost faith in their willingness to break up the gooey-eyed duo.

(and okay I'm a little miffed that I was ONCE AGAIN cheated out of watching the fallout of Prince Charming being deader than Jacob Marley)

Who's going to pick up the mirror that Henry dramatically dropped instead of putting in his pocket like a normal person? Will Hook ever teach Mary Margaret and David how to give a proper inspiring speech? Is anyone ever going to call David out on being a lying liar who lies like a lead-lined rug? Does Regina know he was poisoned or were her laser-guided stares whenever David lied about being dead about something else? And once more with feeling: Why do Wonderland and Neverland have the SAME SHORELINE?!
