I'm not gonna lie; I'm so conflicted right now. I couldn't wait to watch the episode so I had to find out who died. When it was Cora I was all happy and I'm like YAY. Then I watched it. Screw you Once Upon a Time producers. That little moment when Cora was all cheery and her and Regina had their little mother daughter moment broke my heart. The worst bit is it was so realistic. Like they could have gone with the unrealistic Cora dies in a pot of flames or whatever but no, she had to die in her daughter's arms. I CRIED! For Cora! Are you for real? However, I do feel like Cora got what she deserves but boy did I hate the means. I mean the woman has killed countless people so bitch's time was up. I'm also glad that even though Mary Margaret killed Cora (well indirectly), she felt remorse; like I thought she was gonna be like "Look Charming/David/Taco Man the bitch killed loads of people so I killed her. No big loss" or words to that description. But now Regina's evil again which is SO awkward and you just know the season finale is gonna be another cliffhanger. Who knows what it'll bring now. I'm also confused about Rumple. I mean I'm making my little list of goods and evils so this is what I've got.

Good:

- Believes in Swanfire.

- At the very least appears to love Belle and Bae.

- Had his heart broken (not exactly a good trait but it slightly justifies some of his evil).

Bad:

- Basically pressured Mary Margaret into killing Cora.

- Was all sarcy to Regina when Cora died.

- Has a pretty horrendous track record; in fact, he's almost as bad as Cora but at least he has a shitload of pain. Cora was just disrespected.

So you can see where I'm confused. I just wanna a make a point of saying there were so many awkward moments in this episode with Neal (anyone interested in where he got that name from; how do you go from Baelfire to Neal?) I'm not saying this episode made me consider Cora good by any means; she just mad a very bad choice. Although, the episode did prove she can never have been that good a person. Did anyone else see The Lion King moment? "And her name... is Regina *holds up baby like Simba*." I was practically singing circle of life.
