So I have alot of predictions and theories about the 5B arc, so I thought I'd put them down somewhere. I tried to use what we know for sure in my predictions and theories, but also incorporated some of the things I hope for, or some of the things I think would work well. Also, obviously each episode will contain other scenes, but I'm just putting down what I have strong feelings about.

512:

Emma, Mary Margaret, David, Regina, Robin, Henry, and Gold (known from here out as the Unvergers) arrive in the Underworld, after receiveing a strange warning from a ghostly Neal, and realize it looks like a destroyed Storybrooke. They meet various dead people, including Cora, Henry Sr., Pan, the Blind Witch, and James. Cora explains some of what is going on in the Underworld. Meanwhile in SB, Belle tries to figure out what happened to everybody, while in Oz, Zelena goes back to the Emerald City to reclaim her throne. Finally, we find out Hook is imprisioned by Hades.

In flashback, we see more villainy of the Evil Queen, as she wipes out yet another village trying to find Snow White.

513:

The Unvengers split up to try and cover more ground on their search for Hook. Snow runs into a former friend named Hercules, who also recently came to the Underworld from SB to save his girlfriend Megara. Snow is suprised he hasen't seemed to aged since she last saw him, and Herc reveals he is a demigod. Snow and Herc attempt to save Megara, but are attacked by Cerberus, who is being controlled by Cruella, who is still furious that Emma killed her.

In flashback, Young Snow meets Hercules and attempts to help him with one of his 12 labors, but things become complicated when the Evil Queen interferes.

514:

While the Unvengers continue searching, Gold has a run in with his former wife Milah, who has decided to be a crossing guard in the Underworld over her guilt for leaving Baelfire. Meanwhile, Hook escapes from Hades prison.

In flashback, we see the first meeting of Rumple and Milah, and how they fell in love, including a time when Rumple takes an ill Milah to Fendrake the Healer.

515:

Now free, Hook wanders around the Underworld, and comes across his brother Liam. Meanwhile, the Unvengers continue to search while avoiding Cruella and other deceased people who wish to stop our heroes. Emma and Hook finally meet up at the end of the episode.

In flashback, Liam and Hook take a poor teen boy with them on a voyage, where they are attacked by the pirate crew of Long John Silver (from Treasure Island). Things are going bad for Liam and Hook, until the boy reveals himself to be the god Dionysus, and sinks the pirate ship while turning the pirates into dolphins.

516:

Zelena goes to the Underworld for help from Gold with a recent problem, but instead runs into former flame Hades, who still carries a torch for Zelena and has made the Underworld look like SB just for her. Meanwhile, Belle also finds a way to the Underworld, with a crutial bit of information she found about how to escape. Meanwhile, the Unvengers are starting to realize they may have made the decision to come to the Underworld to rashly.

In flashback to a few weeks ago, we see Zelena learn that a now adult Dorothy, along with her dog Toto, has amassed help in the form of a Scarecrow, a Tinman, and a Lion to defeat Zelena once and for all. Zelena is able to steal Dorothy's Silver Shoes, and escape to the Underworld, while sending Dorothy and Toto to the EF, to be dealt with later.

517:

Belle runs into Gaston in the Underworld and finds out that he was killed by Rumple. She then runs into Gold, and confronts him about this, and in the process finds out that Gold has become the Dark One yet again. Meanwhile, Hades makes it his mission to make sure none of the Unvengers can ever return to the land of the living.

In flashback, we learn about the heroic deed that Gaston performed that allowed Mariuce to give him permission to marry Belle, much to her chagrin.

518:

As things in the Underworld reach a boiling point between Hades and the Unvengers, Zelena uses the Silver Shoes to go to the EF and take care of Dorothy. Unfortunatly for Zelena, Dorothy, with the help of Toto's nose, has run into Red and Mulan. They fight and wind up all going to the Underworld. Dorothy and Mulan also start a relationship.

In flashback, we see what Red and Mulan have been up to since we have last seen them.

519, 520, 521, 522, and 523:

I'm not sure which episode these things will fall in, but these are some of the things I think we'll see:

The Unvengers, along with Hook and all the other living people who wound up in the Underworld, are able to defeat Hades and escape back to SB. However, something tags along with them, and starts causing chaos in SB.

In a flashback, we learn about Robin's dark past when he was in a gang where he got the lion tattoo, before being helped by a man named Eros (or Cupid) who lead him to Marian.

The conclusion of Merida, Arthur, Gwen, and the other Camelot people.

So thoughts? And do you have an predictions or theories of your own?
