Liked:

- Emma and Neal's scene. It was bittersweet. I like bittersweet.

- Emma and Henry's scene.

- Regina and her parents.

- There weren't any retcons.

Disliked:

- the red filter. It hurts my eyes, and it doesn't look threatening, it just looks like a dust storm. If it's going to be like that the whole half season, it will be worse than Neverland.

- flashbacks at this point are pointless fillers. Did anyone really feel any suspense when Regina crashed that heart? We know it's not going to work.

- Don't get why they suddenly need to make the Evil Queen a brat. She was threatening in the first season, now she seems like a grown baby.

- Henry sr. Was not a saint, he helped Regina kill Snow's father and that mirror guard.

- lots and lots of OOC moments:

Regina- everyone tells her this is a dangerous place, she sees what happened to the random dude no one cares about, she sees what happened to Hook, get your kid to safety. Your kid is more important than that pirate!

Rumple - he was just weird, why didn't he went to look for Neal. Sure we know that he's not there, but he doesn't know that. If the audience knows what's happening, it doesn't mean that the characters should. This was a problem in previous season when Arthur knew a lot of info about the dagger that the audience knew when he shouldn't have. I see this is going to be the same situation in this season.

- Emma just blackmails Rumple in front of everyone and no body tells her that's wrong? Our noble hypocrites heroes. Honestly how can we not root for Rumple? He just had enough of those people's crap.
