Kay to Arthur and Guinevere

"The Broken Kingdom" is the fourth episode of Season Five of ABC's Once Upon a Time. It was written by David H. Goodman & Jerome Schwartz, and directed by Alrick Riley. It is the ninety-second episode of the series overall, and premiered on October 18, 2015.

Synopsis

After receiving a cryptic warning from Lancelot about Arthur’s intentions, Mary Margaret realizes Arthur may be the heroes’ biggest threat, but when she is unable to convince David of the danger, she takes matters into her own hands. Meanwhile, Hook’s unwavering love for Emma provides a glimmer of hope in her struggle against the unrelenting voice of Rumplestiltskin. In a Camelot flashback, Guinevere senses that Arthur is losing his way, consumed by his obsession with making Excalibur whole, so she sets out with Lancelot on her own quest into the heart of darkness. In Storybrooke, Dark Emma unleashes a secret weapon in the next phase of her plan to find the brave soul she needs to draw Excalibur from the stone.[2]

Biblical

Disney

  • This episode features Merida from Brave. Emma orders her to make Mr. Gold "brave", a not so subtle reference to the movie.

Fairytales and Folklore

Props Notes

  • The Carmarthen Scroll,[12] which Arthur struggles to translate, is written in Welsh. For example, the words "Bydd yr haul", under the illustration of the sun, means "the sun will". (Note that a lot of the text is too faded to read.)

Set Dressing

Costume Notes

Filming Locations

  • The Camelot village scenes, and the horseback/Middlemist Field scene with Hook and Emma, were filmed in Burnaby's Central Park.[37]
    • The Apprentice's Cottage from Season Four[38] doubles as one of the village cottages.[39] This can easily be seen from the identical architecture and window panes and the identical pattern of the brick stones (the ones around the window are easiest to compare).
    • A redressed version of the cottage was used for the exterior of Brennan's cottage in "Swan Song".[40] The wooden floor on the Apprentice's front porch was replaced by a stone floor and climbing plants were added to the walls to make the cottage look different.
    • The same set doubles as the exterior of the Woodcutter's cottage in "Sisters".[41] Although the cottage was heavily redressed to double as the Woodcutter's home (most noticeably, the roof of his cottage has a completely different shape and the chimney is in a different position), the door, the window panes and the pattern of the brick stones (again, the ones around the window are easiest to compare) are the same.
    • The cottage was once again reused, for Fiona and Malcolm's cottage, in the Season Six episode "The Black Fairy".[42] This can be seen from the identical pattern of the brick stones (the ones on the right hand side of the lower half of the door are easiest to compare). The Apprentice's roof tiles were replaced with a thatched roof for this episode.
  • The Idyllic Garden scenes were filmed on a set built at The Bridge Studios.[43] Parts of the garden were real, while the rest was added digitally in post-production.
