- Character: Emma goes through a quick cycle of doubt (which she has every few episodes), but it comes out beautifully with Henry. Rumple seems to be solidly back on the dark side, with Hook returning to "skinning himself a crocodile". So... another cycle. (1.5 out of 2) Are you really surprised?

OUaT loves regressing their characters, to the point they were when first introduced. Then claiming it is to show just how much they grew, not that history has repeated itself. Well, I do believe that in some quasi-version of Once, it wouldn't be that bad. Like you can see the Black fairy stuff being tied in with season 3. Like chop off season 4 (the most irrelevant season), begin season 5, a little changes, and everyone wouldn't seem so cyclical.
