I'm going to disagree with the idea that "latest appearance" should count the specials. I believe the specials should count as just archive footage, if applicable, because that's all it is. It's not featured archive footage that appears while an episode is airing and it's only a special recap of the entire season. I propose we only add the specials under the specials appearance template as "archive" footage and remove the specials from latest appearance on the infobox.

Mostly, I believe the latest appearance should only adhere to physical in-episode or archive appearances from individual Once episodes, so I'm not exactly a fan of using "Shadow of the Queen" to count a character's latest appearance, either. The specials recap is *not* a Once episode. It's a separate one-hour thing that uses footage from many of the episodes.
