Regina pulled a glowing heart out of her vault, crushed it- and he died.

I believe in magic.

yeah that was about the only outright magic thing on the show.. unless you count Charming remembering his fake memories right before he was supposed to meet Mary Margaret while at Mr. Golds shop..

I'm not gonna count that.

So, the part where she revealed she actually has magic powers (or access to them) should have some significance.

Actually, I think they all have latent abilities (prince charming's swordsmanship, etc) that they can tap if they can remember.

I think the actress who plays the Queen is over-doing it on purpose. C'mon, she is playing an evil fairy tale character after all. I like her !
I think that there may be more to Ruby (Red Riding Hood) that we haven't seen yet. I thought it was a hoot when (oddly) she was driving the tow-truck while they were trying to pull Jiminy and Henry out of that underground mine !

Seriously. I wish they would've stretched that out "Alias"-style

on a side note, anyone watch the last episode of Grimm? I thought it was funny that a 'big bad wolf' was riding a hog (Harley).

I like Regina, too.

I think you're on to something w/ Ruby. she always has this way about her suggesting she's up to no good.

I wonder who will be the hunter that saved Red and Grandma?

by **e_galston** » Tue Dec 13, 2011 4:20 pm

it could always be the same hunter... unlikely but they do seem to be tieing all the stories together.

I mean really? They couldn't have filmed a real deer? It was so bad it threw the whole episode off for me, and I usually don't even notice that kind of shit (which means it must have been REALLY bad).

The dialog also hammered the viewer over the head all episode. "I need a person who hunts. Who is a man. A man who hunts. Ah, you there, you are a man. You hunt. You are a man who hunts. I shall call you my hunts man." Mirror: "Snow white believed your fake sympathy." Queen: "Yes, I sure fooled her. Fooled her with my insincere sympathy, which was insincere. Because I'm not her friend. I'm a meany mean bad guy. I am the reason that her father is dead, because I killed him, because I'm a bad person, which you and I both already know, but I will awkwardly announce anyway so that the viewers know, ah, subtlety."

I agree the CGI was horrible for that deer.

The dialogue is cheesy sure but its a fairy tale so I personally think its supposed to be.

I hope they dont use that. I never liked that version. That part wasnt added until years after the Grimm Brothers.

Well, they do seem to be going with later versions of stories. After all, the Talking Cricket wasn't called Jiminy until around the time of the Disney version.

they are out right going with the disney versions of the tales though. the dwarfs weren't named in the original snow white, but they had the disney names, the psychatrist's dog is named pogo, they've already shown Malificent from Disney's sleeping beauty. Belle is coming up on an upcoming episode. The Blue Fairy wasn't called the Blue Fairy until Disney's Pinocchio.
