1. In the original tale, depending on which one you read, there were eight fairies in the kingdom but only seven were invited to the christening of Briar Rose because they only had enough tableware for seven.

2. The eighth was so angry when she found out that she crashed the party and cursed the princess to prick her finger on the spindle of the spinning wheel and die.

3. The seventh fairy migrated the curse into a simple sleeping spell, promising that she would be awaoken by the kiss of a prince/true love.

While I know full well that the title says Witch NOT fairy, it got me thinking since Tiger Lily is set to appear and I personally think she is Lucy's Fairy Godmother and, if this episode is meant to be Lucy's birth, she could come and bestow gifts upon her new godchild.

The Witch could play an adversary role and try to curse baby Lucy maybe.

I dunno, just got me thinking. Ooh, good catch. I like this theory. And it also ties the Witch to Henryrella instead of just Tremaine/Hook/Rapunzel.
