Happily, with this clock, teatime never has to end.

—The March Hare to Jefferson src

The Clock of Evermore is a magical item featured in the extended universe of ABC's Once Upon a Time. It only appears in graphic fiction novel, Out of the Past.

The Clock of Evermore is based on Time from the novel Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.

History

Before First Curse

The Clock of Evermore, a relic used to manipulate time, eventually falls into the March Hare's hands in Wonderland, though the means he used to gain it are not known. When William learns about the clock's whereabouts, he notifies his former associate Jefferson about the find and urges him to go after it. In need of money to support his family, Jefferson travels to Wonderland, planning to steal the clock from the March Hare and sell it for a large sum. Instead, it all goes awry when the March Hare takes him captive, rewinding time again and again, as he forces Jefferson to stay for a never ending tea party. Finally getting bored with tea, the March Hare leaves for a hunt while Jefferson is left restrained, before being rescued by Priscilla. ("Out of the Past")

Trivia

Fairytales and Folklore

  • The Clock of Evermore is based on the personification of Time from Alice's Adventures in Wonderland: In the seventh chapter of the novel, the Hatter tells Alice that if you are on good terms with Time, he (Time) will do almost anything you'd like with the clock, such as having it go round in a twinkling. The Hatter reveals that the reason why he and his friends have tea all day is because Time has punished him by eternally standing still at six pm, which is tea time. ("Out of the Past")
