Favorite episode of the season!

Love the backstory between Alice and Robyn!

Alice reading Robin Hood and Robyn reading Alice in Wonderland.

That scene at the tower. Felt so bad for Alice (in both the Enchanted Forest and Hyperion Heights)

Great episode, not my favorite though because nothing will ever top Beauty but I enjoyed it!

Best part of the episode: Tilly and Robyn and Lucy and Regina! Also loved Ivy and Henry's talk!

Bad part: When in the hell will people stop trying to get Rumple's dagger??? Please don't let him be controlled again! Please let the other characters help him keep the dagger safe!

I liked everything about this episode. One of my favorites this season.

I don't know why Facilier wants the dagger. Rumple has no magic in Hyperion Heights. Can it still be used to control him? I really don't want to see that happen to him again. Maybe he wants to become the dark one? I'm sure Regina is going to tell Rumple that Facilier is after the dagger, which makes me wonder if that is exactly what Facilier wants her to do.

Loved this episode!

Nice to see how Alice got out.

True love also starts with someone trapping the other person! Loved Robin, and Alice's story, though. They really needed each other.

Loved how the troll and the bug became a statue! That was awesome!

Very glad Robin is back in HH.

Some really great KnightRook scenes this episode. So nice to see them bonding, and loved Tilly moving in with Rogers at the end - truly a 'hope' moment!

All together I loved seeing Alice's story in the past and present.

Regina stop hiding things from your sister! And what does Dr Facilier want with the dagger?

It was great to see Ivy apologise for what she did to Henry.

By far my favorite episode of the season. Robin and Alice have amazing chemistry!

Did anybody think of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets during the scene where the car came to rescue them? In both cases, our heroes are standing back to back. In one case, hungry spiders are closing in and in the other case, angry men are closing in. Then the driverless car comes to the rescue, startling the enemies long enough for the heroes to jump in and ride to safety.

I'm not going to be in a position to watch the episode until Monday night, but wanted to say that I find it both interesting and clever that the show has taken an actual sculpture - the Fremont Troll - and not only gotten permission - and paid a licensing fee - to replicate it in Vancouver, but also incorporated it into the in-universe narrative that they're exploring.

I did! I shouted, 'it's Harry Potter!', out loud when I was watching!

It’s episodes like this that remind me why I fell in love with the show in the first place.

Truly magical with an engaging centric story focusing on Alice, her first adventure with Robin. A great performance by Rose Reynolds. Meaningful interactions between the characters. And to top it off a hopeful ending where a father and daughter are reunited, even if they don’t know it yet.

I wasn’t even bored with the subplots.

I missed the Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets reference with Emma's yellow bug.

I was shocked when I saw it in the Enchanted Forest.

I was shocked that Robin actually tried stealing the bug from her at one point. Not surprised Emma caught her though.
