Good Lord! No one has seen this episode yet?:confused: You've missed out on something.

Well, I saw it and it was pretty good. I loved Roni/Henry, Regina/Drizella and Regina and Rumple's interactions were good. I have to say, hats off to Kane (Drizella/Ivy)! She killed it last night along with Lana!

I saw it, too! I enjoyed it!

-The Drizella twist was GREAT, i’m just intrigued to know a) what specifically will happen to the people Regina loves if the curse breaks and b) how Drizella specifically cast it...wouldn’t she need the heart of who she loves most?

-Intrigued by the mystery surrounding the lost girl Hook is trying to find.

-Dapper Rumple was looking fine. ;) I liked his scene with Regina and wonder if he’ll reveal he’s awake to Regina and/or what deal he’d like in return.

Great acting from Lana, especially at the end!

I loved it! Great acting by Lana and Adelaide! I can't wait to find out what the consequence is of the curse being broken.

Glad to see some Rumple/Regina and Weaver/Roni scenes. Now that they are both awake, I wonder if Rogers will be soon as well?

I was not expecting that Drizella was the one who cast the curse. I think most of us on the spoilers board pinned Lady Tremaine at the obvious curse caster. Now that we know that she's not, I'm curious to see how Drizella plans to make her mother suffer. Kudos to Adelaide for playing such a layered and devious character like Drizella. It's so different from her character on Reign. Mary was all good and kind, Drizella is the total opposite of that.

I wonder how long it will be until Weaver figures out that Regina is awake?

IMO, this was one of the best episodes of the series (especially Lana's performance at the end with Adelaide)

- Drizella casted the curse. Adelaide is doing a wonderful job as the character.

- Lana's performances with Andrew and Robert. The Regina/Henry and Regina/Rumple will
always be my favorite relationships of the show.

:) This was a very good episode. Probably my favorite of the season so far.

I am most intrigued about this curse twist and exactly what it was Drizella did just before the curse.

Lana was fantastic with her range of emotion at the end.

Regina|Drizella dynamic is great! The parallel to similar mothers was interesting and Regina became the teacher only for it to backfire on her.

Loved the Regina|Rumple and Regina|Roni & Henry scenes.

These latests episodes got me thinking where does Lucy come from? I don't see much time happening between the story going on and the "real time" Hyperion Heights", so... is Lucy adopted? who is she really? or what?

I agree that part is confusing. I've read 10 years thrown around but 10 years what? 10 years in this new EF? Ten years in HH cursed? I think Lucy was likely born in the EF though because Henry & Jacinda wouldn't have gotten together in HH while cursed to have Lucy.

so it was drizella who casted the cures,glad we got to see flashbacks

reginas back but the curse

does rogers still remember that he is rumple?

The flashbacks in EF2 have said “Many Years Ago” with HH as present day.

Considering that Driezilla was a newbie with magic at the time and that witch helped her "wake up" Regina, chances are she was not the one who created this new and more complicated curse. So many years many years may have passed before the curse was actually cast. And this means audiences will eventually learn how this witch and Driezilla finally managed to cast the curse in the first place. Did it require the "sacrifice" of a loved one? Who knows.

This episode was great!

So Drizzy is the curse caster. Love the twist. She seemed to want to target her mother specifically, not the group of "heroes" and it's interesting how obessed she seems to be with causing her mother pain.

Also how more people are "awake" and now this game of dancing around each other begins! Love it!

But dude...Drizzy blocked Regina....I've never seen a dark curse with something bad happening if it's broken before.

The look on Regina face's..... she said something about Henry and Jacinda..... so the curse breaks, something bad will happen to the people Regina cares for.

Drizzy cornered Regina Mills people. And it looks like...Regina may be forced into working for her, at least for a time.

That is Rumple-esque terms of trickery.

really loving driz/ivy on the show. she is a great villian

love that regina is awake finally. wonder what she will do now that she knows the truth. and what will happen to her love ones if she breaks the curse. hope she can find a way to stop it.
