The Good

- Charming gets filled out as a character, with motivations and feelings

- Snow and Charming's relationship is great

- A wild Lancelot appears.....and was apparently the one that sat upon Seige Perilous (the seat)

- More magical rules, ingredients, and macguffins in use.

The Bad (What was I see as a work in progress, so I can't tell)

- Arthur is a "villain". Saw it and it seems that he's just a good ruler and a bit clingy to the power.

- Belle accepts Rumple and even loves his dark parts. Emma does it with Hook. Why can't Hook?

- Regina's hypocritical speech....just waiting for Zelena to find herself free and vengeful.

- Everything else, except.....

The Ugly

- Contrived spell to wake up Rumple is contrived. Belle better have discovered it in a future episode or she could have stayed behind and cured him that same day.

- Contrived spell had a very obvious "Bae's scarf" alarm going off which they just ignored.

- The misunderstanding waiting to happen.......Arthur is relatively justified to want to not listen to the crazy biased people that are harbouring the Dark One and he's still looking out for his people. But he's a manipulator indeed. Guess they can't all be pure of heart. Glad someone else thinks Regina's a hypocrite. That speech was the one thing I disliked. Regina's always been a bit of a hypocrite. This wasn't anything new. I find that a tad amusing.
