- Grace to Jefferson

Grace is a character on Once Upon a Time. She makes her debut in the seventeenth episode of the first season. She is portrayed by guest star Alissa Skovbye and is the fairytale counterpart of Paige.

History
After Grace finds her father during a game of hide-and-seek, the little family heads home to discover that the Evil Queen has come calling. Knowing that her presence is a bad sign, Jefferson tells Grace to wait in the woods while he speaks with their visitor.

The next day, while visiting the market with her father, Grace admires a white stuffed rabbit and asks Jefferson for it. However, Jefferson is unable to buy the toy, even after he offers all the money he has. Grace, however, understands, and later happily accepts a stuffed rabbit hand made by her father. Grace begs her father not to help the Evil Queen, but he sends her to stay with the neighbors and promises to return in time for a tea party. ("Hat Trick")

Trivia

 * Her name may be a reference to Slick, the lead singer of Jefferson Airplane.
 * The white rabbit Grace wanted is a nod to the rabbit that Alice follows down the hole in the story Alice's Adventures In Wonderland. Grace's tea party also references the Mad Hatter's Tea Party from the book.
 * The peddler selling the white rabbit is the Evil Queen in disguise. It is Grace's desire for the rabbit that leads Jefferson to agree to take the Evil Queen to Wonderland.
