Henry and Lucy jump through a portal in episode 3. Maybe the Henry and Lucy we saw in the season 6 finale were that Henry and Lucy? We suspect that time moves faster in EF2. Henry and Lucy could spend months in the EF2 and only days will pass in HH. Of course, Henry will be arrested when he comes back because he has no rights to Lucy. How creepy is it that a 30 something swift driver is suddenly hanging out with a 12 year old girl? Especially when he thinks his own child died? I don't think Mekia was talking about a false memory, but I could be wrong.
My main problem with Lucy being born in HH is that it doesn't explain why she suddenly thinks Henry is her father? There was a paper trail for Henry to follow to find Emma, but even Lucy's mother thinks her baby daddy is someone else.

Same way they're can be an aged up Gideon. I imagine Zelena somehow ended up in HH's w/ Robyn so she would age up as well. I honestly have no idea what the timeline is anymore on this show.

Or Robin and Zelena could time travel back to HH, if she's grown.

Radames

I have no idea, anymore. But I get the feeling the female being cast is the 2nd half of the LGBT pairing.

Get your kool-aid ready for this season's timeline, lol.

I really didn't think of Robyn, but I guess it's possible if some magical aging stuff is going on.

I've been thinking the LGBT romance would be Alice and eventually Drizella, but maybe not.

ETA: Here's the vid about the new female character.

scififan2009

All the men are married. So it’s not a love interest for any of them. So that just leaves the women.

Process of elimination.

sherry02

True. So it almost has to be the other half of the LGBT romance.

ETA: Unless they are going to throw a love triangle into the mix for Henry and Jacinda and this character is just going to be around for a few episodes.

kristi_adela

The already have the man Jacinda thinks is Lucy's father. Throwing in a female would turn it into a rectangle.
If Hook is a clone, it could be a love interest for him. The Evil Queen is engaged to wish Robin, but that doesn't make him Regina's fiancé as well. Jekyll and Hyde didn't actually share the same woman.

Radames

Clone or not he's still married to Emma, as that is still his true love. My money is on 2nd half of LGBT couple.

Austenphile

If he's a clone, he isn't married to Emma. I don't think it's Rogers love interest, but this show has said that duplicates, clones, AU versions, etc are different people. Emma can't be married to both of them. And if so, how sad for him to know his true love, and wife is off living happily having sex with someone else. The EQ was sad Henry considered Regina, and not her, his mother. A clone has to be free to live their own life. I watched The Island so I know they're not the same person. Or Orphan Black.

Maybe they'll be a emma clone too

Austenphile

If it's a clone Hook, I think it's likely they are never going to re-integrate him so no need for a reunion scene. So eventually, he might have a different LI because he's a different character. When EQ was with Gold, Regina was not. It will probably not be that different from James and Charming having completely separate love interests since Jen won't be back to make a clone CS parallel to Dark OQ.

sherry02

I'm not really on board with the clone Hook theory, but if that is what is happening, then not only does he have to do all the work while real Hook has his happy life with Emma, he also cannot be with the person he loves AND he cannot find a new love? That's horrible. If there's a clone, then he is now living a life independent of the real Hook, same as the EQ and Regina. They can each have their own lives and they can each have their own loves. The Regina/EQ split already established that. The EQ is marrying Robin of Locksley and Regina is likely going to be getting a new love interest who is not Robin.

If she is "related" to someone, it might be Anastasia. At least I'm hoping she wasn't killed for the curse to be cast...

sherry02

I don't think it can be Anastasia because the spoiler yesterday said Anastasia would appear in episode 9, not the mid-season finale.
