My thoughts on this episode: I prefer Maleficent over Snow White.

Snow's attitude and not so great decisions have been annoying for awhile, and now we find that Maleficent lost her child because of Snow. Now, I have no doubt that Maleficent's kid isn't dead, since OUAT probably won't go there, but still, taking away someone's kid is a major thing, and the writers have said we've only begun to see what's been done to Maleficent by the Charmings, so we're not done yet.

And, whatever happened to Emma's superpower, Snow and David lied outright, weren't any good either, and she just bought it.

Thirdly, whatever happened to Snow and David learning about the curse from Rumplestiltskin? They didn't know anything about when they went to him, but now the Queens of Darkness are the ones who told him.

And finally, a theory. We saw that Snow's heart isn't pure when Regina ripped it out in season 2. Now, the implication was that manipulating Regina into killing Cora was what caused it, but no one had ever seen Snow's heart before. Regina's heart is covered in black, but there's a pure glow beneath. I saw a theory that said that it meant that underneath all the bad, there's a good person. Snow's heart was dark at the center, so

what if that means she's bad at the core, but covers it with good deeds?
