It was an interesting episode. The flashbacks felt like filler. They didn't seem to do much other than kill time and explore the origins of a piece of Emma's wardrobe? What's next? The origins of Regina's evening gown?

I wonder how Hades can be stopped now since he is a god. Maybe, several whacks with Thor's Hammer to the face to knock him out and toss him back into the Underworld? I liked Greg's performance of Hades in this episode - very reminiscent of his unethical lawyer character from Ally McBeal complete with the contracts.

The writers can spinoff a whole new original show called 'Once Upon a Time in the Underworld' or 'Once Upon a Time in the River of Lost Souls' from all the characters now imprisoned in the Underworld and the River of Lost Souls under Cruella's and Blind Witch's administration. I think that's how DC's Legends of Tomorrow got started - too many interesting characters with not enough time getting tossed aside from The Flash and The Arrow having the potential to stand in their own show.
