The Heart of the Truest Believer- Where to begin? First and foremost... thank you so much for another fun reaction, and for season three's premiere on top of it all! Such a good episode and what an excellent way to begin season three by having each of our main characters come to Neverland to save Henry, and at last we get to meet Peter Pan! :) Now... the idea of the "Home Office" that Greg and Tamara believed in was weird. It has been all along. However, I love that it turned out all to be lies conjured up by Pan in order to get these two to fight for him, as Pan reveals that it's easier to get some people to hate something, rather than to get them to believe in something. And Greg and Tamara are at last dead and gone. And I couldn't be happier with their demise. First... one of the Lost Boys called upon the shadow to come down and rip out Greg's own shadow in order to kill him, then another of the boys shoots Tamara in her back with an arrow to kill her. However, she doesn't die right away. A short time later, Rumple comes upon her still alive and heals her in order to get her to talk about where Henry is. When she tells him all she knows about how Henry had run into the forest, Rumple then rips out her heart and crushes it... thus killing Tamara too. Boy... are their deaths just desserts and oh so sweet. :) Is it wrong for me to feel so happy by this? Perhaps so, but I can't help it. I was so glad to see their storylines finally come to an end. Next... this episode begins with Emma giving birth to Henry eleven years earlier. This scene is meant to show what's going through Emma's mind as they are passing through the portal on their way to Neverland. But more so, it's meant to show Emma's strong drive to save Henry at all costs. She abandoned him once, and she is terrified of failing him again. Unfortunately, just as Emma was back when she was giving birth to Henry, she now feels very much alone again in spite of having her parents, Hook, and Regina there with her to help her save him. She is angry with her parents and blames them for Henry becoming kidnapped in the first place, more so than she blames herself, because they convinced her to stay in Storybrooke to fight to save everyone, instead of taking her one chance to leave town with Henry before she ever broke the curse so that they could have been together. However, as angry with them as she may be, Emma does come to understand that her anger is misplaced. I believe that she's more angry at the whole situation because she's so afraid for her son. And I don't believe she really wishes that she abandoned her parents and everyone else to remain cursed. Then... we see Hook steering the Jolly Roger through the wild portal as heroes and villains leave Storybrooke and arrive in Neverland. And what a ride! Upon their arrival, Hook comes up with a plan since he's the only one of them aside from possibly Rumplestiltskin to have been in Neverland before. One of my favorite scenes in this episode is the moment between Emma and Hook, as Hook comes into the crew's quarters where Emma is working out to pass the time and to build up her strength for their upcoming fight against Pan. I love how Hook gives Emma the very sword he had once given to Baelfire when he knew him. And I love Hook's line after Emma asks him how long he had known Neal, as Hook answers, "Long enough to know that I miss him too." Next... I also love the moment between Hook and Regina as well, as they talk about how villains may not get their happy endings, to which Hook responds, "I hope not. Because if it is, then we've wasted our lives." This shows us that Hook has begun to allow himself to feel the remorse over his villainous actions... remorse that he's buried deep down for centuries. And I really love this about him. I love this continued development within his character. Also... I love the scenes between Henry and Pan, who pretends to be another one of the Lost Boys who wanted to leave them and Neverland and who fears Pan, in order to trick Henry and to see if he truly is the boy with the heart of the truest believer. What a brilliant twist that I didn't expect either. I should have known the boy was really Pan, but this idea went way over my head and I'm so glad that it did because it made this twist that much more exciting. :) I also enjoy for the most part, the scenes between Neal, Mulan, Aurora, and Phillip, then later with Robin Hood, who yes... is another actor than the original actor chosen to play him. Tom Ellis couldn't come back to Once Upon a Time because he chose to take on a few other roles. Which makes me happy, because while I love Tom Ellis as an actor, the truth is... I absolutely love this new actor chosen to play Robin a little more, and Tom Ellis is phenomenal in his next two roles too. First as William Rush in the short lived TV series titled, Rush, and especially as Lucifer Morningstar in Lucifer, of course! :) And to me... Sean Maguire just makes for a better Robin Hood. He's really, really good. Just you wait! :) Next... I really love the whole fight scene between Regina and Mary Margaret, as well as Hook and David within the storm as Emma discovers that their arguing is causing the storm to worsen. And their arguments certainly increase drastically. Not only does their arguing cause the storm to worsen, but that the storm summoned by the mermaid also causes their arguments to worsen as well, which is why Emma couldn't get through to anyone until she was willing to take such drastic measures to gain their attentions by jumping overboard. And thankfully, it works. Unfortunately, Emma nearly dies when she's struck by a part of the ship's riggings that crashes down on top of her and knocks her unconscious. Thankfully, David immediately jumps in after Emma, as Hook urges him to tie a rope around him so that he and the women can pull him and Emma back up. And once they do, the storm is over and the mermaids are no longer a threat to them. I love the idea of the mermaids being trouble for the heroes and villains aboard the Jolly Roger... because if you remember in the Disney movie, the mermaids weren't so nice either. They were more mischievous, so I really like that they are established as such in Once Upon a Time too. I also really love each of Rumple's scenes once he goes off on his own to save Henry, including the moment when he whimsically mimics himself through his own motion he always makes upon introducing himself as Rumplestiltskin to one of the Lost Boys. So funny. And lastly... another of my favorite scenes is between our new team, when Emma stands up to them and takes up the role as their leader, saying they will need each of their skills and them working together if they have any hope of saving Henry and defeating Pan. I absolutely love Hook's line, "I quite fancy you, when you're not yelling at me." It's such a Hook thing to say. I love his smugness and bravado. :) Overall... a brilliant episode and a great start to an amazing season!! I can't wait for more reactions for season three from you!!! There's so much good to come. :) Until then, my friend...
