I found the guy with the tatto thing very confusing. I still have no idea what that was about.

I noticed that in the flashbacks Tiana was very different from the movie; in the movie they were poor, it was set in a more modern time, and Tiana explicity stated multiple times that she was not looking for a prince. The plot twist was interessting, but I feel like making Tiana not be the frog kind of takes away the wh0ole point of her story.

I was dissapointed in the lack of Hanry and Roni in this episode. The promo made it seem like this whole episode was about the photo, but instead they're doing that next episode. I don't think Tremaine cast the curse. Before the season aired the writers made sure to mention that in season 1 it was clear in the first episode who cast the curse but this time it won't be and that we shouldn't assume that just becase Tremaine is the "main" villain that she's necessarily the one who cast the curse. I see either a repeat of 3B happening where the heroes cast the curse but somehow Tremaine or someone else hijacked the curse to their advantage OR someone totally unexpected cast the curse (the witch, Ivy, etc.)  There are too many people awake in this curse (and it seems easier to "awake" from this curse than Regina's curse) and this curse didn't create a new area such as Storybrooke that's hidden from everyone else so I wonder if this is even the same dark curse or some new curse.
