Key notes!

1. Holy Hades, that openeing battle scene and Rumple's victory was great. Finally they did something sensible in terms of battle. Guess they had a better budget.

2. I like the new theory about the Dagger corrupting its wielder. Commanding others to use Dark Magic is in every way using Dark Magic. So, you can't reap the rewards without paying the price (Darkening your soul). Some may say "Bae was OOC", but it is an actual "All Magic comes with a Price" moment. Showing that really good people can be corrupted by Dark Magic.

3. Rumple needs better security for his dagger, but to be fair, Gideon would break the blood lock.

4. Zelena and Regina are making amends. Robin is heading for certain doom.

5. Blue is not dead! Rumple did a slight good by not killing her, just stealing the magical essence of a magical being....so, not-dead. Whew, I was happy she didn't die from a cut.

6. Yeah, Hook and whatever, David, no...Emma. Next week, on Secret & Lies!
