TFTNT. Hope this one is worth it for Regina in screen time.

Thanks for opening the thread. I hope this will be a good episode for Regina.

Judging from the promo, it looks like there will be lots of Henry and Regina on both timelines. I'm especially looking forward to the flashbacks. It also looks like Regina is likely getting knocked on her butt by Gothel. It's become a joke, but it's always bothered me a bit that since she turned "good", every season she is overpowered by the current villain. Of course this time she doesn't have her magic and Gothel does, so it's not exactly a fair fight to begin with.

I loved this episode. The Regina and Henry flashbacks were so good. I loved seeing them back in Storybrooke. So many emotional moments and I loved them all. The flashbacks were completely focused on them which was awesome. This was really a regal believer centric. It was about the two of them, their relationship, and both of them preparing for him to find his own path in life. Plus I really prefer Mayor Regina to Roni so it was good to see her again.

I guess the college tour scene was cut. It always amuses me when they release promo pics of a cut scene, but at least we know it would have been in there.

I enjoyed the HH scenes too. I was glad to see that Gothel finally remembered that Regina exists. Regina holding that stake like she was Buffy the Vampire Slayer was pretty great, even if she did get tossed around like rag doll.

So Regina dug up Victoria and pried the storybook from her cold, dead hands. Did Drizella bury her with the book? It's not like Victoria could have put it in there herself. I'm glad she sent Lucy away before she did that. I like that they did something original with Henry's belief being restored by the conversation with himself instead of just holding the book.

We got a second regal believer curse break. I still think TLK being able to cure head trauma and stab wounds is silly, but I enjoyed it enough not to care. Andrew's acting in that scene was really good. He looked heartbroken when he thought she was dead. After the others showed up, I loved when Lucy ran to hug Regina and we even got a hug with Regina and Robyn.

I guess Regina and Rumple are back on good terms now. He seemed genuinely remorseful, which is not an easy thing for him.

So I think it's official now that getting romantically involved with Regina is a death sentence. Daniel, Robin, Facilier - all dead.

Wish Rumple is the villain of the finale. I have no doubt Bobby will be fantastic. It feels like we're starting to come full circle.

I think the scenes in the promo are a mix of eps 21 and 22. I'm looking forward to seeing Snowing again. I didn't realize how much I'd missed them until I saw them coming to the rescue in the promo.

I hope you guys enjoyed the episode! I should really catch up on OUAT...the last thing I remember is Hook coming back to life via Zeus. I think that was season 5...wow that was a ways away.

This had to be the best episode this season. For me and Regina.

Lots of Regina this episode and that's definitely because the focus was Regal Believer. It was nice to see Jared again and the SB flashes were great. You could see how far Regina & Henry's relationship had come; how strong their mother|son bond evolved. And Andrew did a great job playing off of that as Adult Henry in HH.

I loved that the curse was broken by Regina|Henry a second time around. They flipped it which was cool. In s3, Regina got to break it with TLK for her son and now Henry got to break it with TLK for his mom. Quite poetic. And fitting that their relationship ultimately broke the curse considering Gothel used Henry to get Regina to cast the curse in the first place.

Loved the Regina & Lucy hug at the end when Lucy ran into her arms. . Happiness that their mission together was ultimately successful although Facilier had a hand in it by curing Henry from the poison.

It might have all been crammed into one episode but at least the episode gave us decent Gothel|Regina and it was acknowledged by Gothel that Regina was the Eighth Witch when offering the deal to spare her and her own.

Facilier. Yeah, I already suspected he could be killed off with the series ending so I can't say that surprised me. They obviously had to rush and insert the brief Tiana|Naveen resolution with Facilier into this episode. But I wasn't expecting Wish Rumple to be the one to kill him, lol.

I would have preferred Facilier left town rather than being killed, considering how many people Regina has had to bury already. This is a task that would likely fall to her since he had no one else, but I'm sure it won't be onscreen. They'll move on quickly.

I had no idea that Wish Rumple would be in HH. I like it when they can still surprise me (sometimes, when it's a good surprise).

Best episode of the season bar none. I agree with nit liking that they killed Facilier. I mean it was so anticlimactic and never even got a backstory before getting offed. The biggest throwaway character ever. But the rest of the episode was great.

I think they would have done more with Facilier if there had been another season. We probably would have gotten the backstory with he and Regina and the necklace. I would have preferred to see that rather than Zelena's backstory with Hansel or more pirate adventures. Even if you don't like Facilier, it would have been a chance to see the EQ again, but in a different context than what we've seen before.

Personally, I think Facilier would have been the new Rumple 2.0 if we got a season 8.

Also, this season remind me of season 3, especially when Henry saved Regina.

Im sure we would have. I don't think they should have brought him in so late in the season. And I agree. Zelena's backstory with Hansel was unecessary and I could have done with one less Pirate story.
