If Gothel/Eloise isn’t in this episode, we will likely not get witches. If we get no Gothel/Eloise in 16 and 17, Gothel has a greater chance at lacking that payoff Once generally squanders.

Like they cut some scenes with the main villain, might get a pass. But essentially eliminating them after one plot line fell through until their small ending arc is sort of sad.

Hopefully they can keep up the intrigue about Gothel’s goals. Because:

7x09 to 7x11: Gothel is starting to gain root, get revenge on Rapunzel. Wants to regroup the Coven.

7x13: Manipulating Ana, Throwing the cops off her trail.

7x14: Cut out of episode.

7x15: Loses Ana in more ways than one.

7x16: Absent.

7x17: Absent.

7x18 - 7x20: We discover her plans, she tries them, she is defeated.

I hope not... Gothel may be in 717, we don't have a full cast list yet.
