A few stray thoughts:

1. Merlin and the Tree. This really ties into the whole Nimue backstory, and the fact that the DO Dagger is also the end of the blade of Excalibur leads me to believe that Nimue had a hand in making the Dark One Dagger. I'll put any future thoughts in the Nimue thread, as they are probably more relvant there.

2. Regina as the Savior - Love that line, and it is in direct contrast to Emma in the Premeire "I am the Dark One".

3. They are really messing with the relationships this year. not necessarily romanticly, I think those are set. But we're going to get EvilCharm (David teaching Regina to dance), and Hooding (apparently David and Robin team up to save the day). we had CaptainBeliever, WickedHook, and BraveSwan in the previous episode. and we get to meet Henry's first love. I'd say we are in for quite a year of mix and match pairings.
