—Donna to Myrna ^src

Donna is a character on ABC's Once Upon a Time. She débuts in the fourth episode of the first season. She is portrayed by guest star Laura Bertram, and does not have a Storybrooke counterpart.

History

Before First Curse

In the Enchanted Forest, Donna, along with her husband, Stephen, is tricked by Jiminy Cricket's parents about an elfin plague. They give them a fake serum as a cure. Unbeknownst to Jiminy, they switched the usual water serum they always use to scam people and give them the potion Rumplestiltskin had given Jiminy to get rid of his parents. After ingesting the potion, she and Stephen are turned into wooden puppets, which causes their son, Geppetto, much alarm and grief when he sees them. ("That Still Small Voice")

Rumplestiltskin collects the puppets and keeps them in his castle for many years. ("The Snow Queen", "It's Not Easy Being Green", "The Apprentice", "Heroes and Villains", "Skin Deep", "Snow Drifts", "There's No Place Like Home")

During First Curse

During the twenty-eight years of the curse, Donna and Stephen remain as puppets in Mr. Gold's pawnshop collection. ("Welcome to Storybrooke", "Save Henry", "The Price of Gold", "That Still Small Voice", "The Shepherd", "The Stranger", "An Apple Red as Blood", "A Land Without Magic")
