Anyway, Brave cast was good, Red's explaination for not being in season 4 was good, Mulan in the "present" was good. The only thing that bothered me is when Mulan was helping Merida in the past, I think it has to be after Emma and MM left in season 2, but before Mulan and Aurora saved Phillip. Right now I'm thinking Mulan and Aurora split up to try to find out what Cora was talking about, and we're going to meet up later somewhere to compare notes and save Phillip. I don't really see it fitting anywhere else in the timeline, especially if it was "two years ago". Anyway, maybe it will be explained later. And I really hope we see Red and Mulan in 5B again, because they are too good to not have on the show more. To those saying this should have aired before 508, the wouldn't do that, because they wanted the main cast at the normal time, and for you to be sucked in and watch the second hour, despite the main cast not being in. It made sense to me. Speaking of which there's something I've been wondering, it seems that so many places weren't touched by the curse, I wonder if the curse only affected Mist Haven (Enchanted Forest) aside from Aurora's kingdom of course and for some reason it didn't hit far off lands like Camelot and Arendelle and DunBroch or other worlds like Wonderland and Oz and Neverland, I'm guessing Jefferson, Will, and Dr. Frankenstein were in the Enchanted Forest when the curse was casted but that's just my theory
