Blue, I just posted the same thing on my twitter. They did a great job with that one.

And, I think they gave away a clue to August's identity.

At the bridge? I caught that but I don't know what it could mean.

Snow White has a BIG mouth! No wonder the queen hates her. I would too. At that age, I knew what a secret was & when to keep my mouth shut.

That was by far my favorite episode thus far!!

Oh, and I'm not sure about August being who some may think he is (the clue...he's not a liar...something about a splint shin...)

*POSSIBLE SPOILER*


It might not be anything and I'm just looking for clues that aren't there. When August stumbles and his leg goes a bit "wooden".

WOW. I genuinely did not see that ending coming. This show continues to get more and more intriguing. I just wish the CG and dialogue would follow suit...

degrassifan, you don't think Cora manipulated that secret out of the child by playing the worried mother? That was certainly my thought. I certainly understood why Snow did what she did.

Eris, you may be right but something in the promo makes me think August is someone else...

It's a lot less black and white than that. Cora absolutely played on Snow's feelings of loss over her mother. At that age you might have been able to be manipulated by an adult who really knew what they were doing.

Yes, that's exactly what's making me question my thoughts. Oh these red herrings! lol

At the toll bridge, August refers to the pain in his leg as shin splints. That plays into the Pinocchio theory.

And that little girl is SUCH a Mary Margaret clone.

I couldn't believe how like MM that little girl was! Is she related to Ginnifer Goodwin somehow?

Great episode. Definitely excited to find out where Katherine was!

I'm sorry but apparently Little Snow was supposed to be about 10-12. At that age, you should know when to keep your mouth shut. Even Henry knows how to keep secrets.

And don't forget this exchange -

"I am not a liar"
"That's exactly what a liar would say"

So.....

Yes, but Henry knows who his mother really is. Snow was an innocent child who had lost her mother and when Cora played the "worried I'm going to lose my child" bit, Snow fell for it.

It doesn't matter. Cora is obviously a master manipulator. She could have gotten anyone to break.

And honestly, even though Snow was manipulated, she still told! So to Regina, it was really her fault.

This was a great episode. What Cora did was very deciteful by saying that she would do anything to make her daughter happy, but Snow White made a promise not tell and she broke it. If she really did care about Daniel and Regina's love, she would not have told Cora about them. However, Regina should know that this is not what Daniel would want. He would never want her to completely destroy someone eles's life for revenge. Also, thank God that Emma FINALLY learned that Sidney was behind all of Regina's plans.

It's interesting that Katherine is still alive. But I am wondering if that really was her heart in Mary Margaret's jewel box. Did Katherine really die or did Mr. Gold/Rumplestilskin bring her back to life when he said, "I just need to perform a little magic"?

ETA: Major grammar errors and a few missing words, but I fixed them.

"but Snow White made a promise not tell and she broke it. If she really did care about Daniel and Regina's love, she would not have told Cora about them."

Thank you! In the end, she still told no matter what. 12 year olds are not as dumb as people think. She should know what a secret means. Maybe I was just mature for my age, but I've kept people's secrets from when I was that age till now.

Uh yeah but let's not forget a couple things here -

1) This is a Faerie Tale
2) 12 year olds 300 years ago maybe weren't as worldly as your precious young ones are today.
3) This is a fvcking Faerie Tale.

I figured from the beginning that Katherine was still alive. Remember that Regina keeps the hearts of people she "owns" in little wooden boxes.

I found what young Snow did to be very heartfelt. I know plenty of adults that couldn't keep a secret under less stressful situations.

I don't know if Katherine coming back was Gold's "bit of magic" because he is currently working for Regina to get himself off for the battery charge. I would only believe it was Gold who brought her back if we knew his charge was dismissed.

I watched the episode on hulu this morning and didn't pay attention to how long it was and definitely let out a small yell when it ended. Fantastic episode!

ETA: was Daniel the gym teacher, or was that Frederick? He looked similar and I don't have time to rewatch and check.

AND when MM was being interviewed by the DA or whatever, that also showed how easily she an break down and tell people what they want to hear in her adult life as well.

Frederick was the gym teacher. I always thought that Katherine would turn up alive at some point becasue that's the only way MM could avoid a conviction. Previews from next week's episode showed an outraged Regina, yelling at Gold, "You broke our agreement!"

seriously... i will reiterate what you all said.. it's like they took a chunk out of Ginnifer Goodwin to cast her younger version!

love the scene at the end with MM and Regina... damn I love Ginnifer Goodwin more and more every week! she was just fantastic at it... and Regina just really showed her intense hatred for her... what a b*tch!

and thank jeebus that Emma is finally catching on... and discovering that the guy was still working for Regina... i mean I love the character of Emma (and jennifer morrison) but her character started out badass then she just kinda got dumb!

and I really want to know what does happen when people try to leave the town... it appears that REgina and Gold know...
