Yes, the giant is Hugo from Lost! Also, Neal is the guy at the beginning of 2x1 looking at the postcard that August said he would send him when the curse is broken. As much as I love season 1, I do think season 2 is better. I can't wait until you see more revelations about the show ;)

Tallahassee- I absolutely love this episode so much, so thank you for another fun reaction, Travis! Of course, you can probably guess that my favorite scenes throughout this episode, are all those between Emma and Hook, given that they are my favorite characters throughout this entire show. Which I've mentioned more than once already. I just absolutely love these two characters. :) Also... I love this episode, because it answers so many questions in regards to Emma's past, and there are so many brilliant connections that I really love too! First and foremost... I just absolutely love Hook's and Emma's banter, Hook's cheekiness towards Emma, and how he always flirts with her. Although, he doesn't just flirt with Emma. He flirts with all women including Mary Margaret, Aurora, and Mulan too. However, it's clear in this episode that Hook is far more intrigued by, and is interested mostly in Emma like he indicates when it's decided she's the one going with Hook up the beanstalk, and he states to her, "I hoped it'd be you.", when Emma comes over to him so he can place the magic cuff on her wrist. He also tries to learn more about Emma as they're climbing the beanstalk together because he genuinely appears to want to get to know who she really is. And I love it! I love, love, love Hook... like I've mentioned a number of times!! :) One of my very favorite moments within this episode... I love, love, love the moment Hook and Emma share as he's helping her by disinfecting her wound with his rum and by wrapping a rag around her bloodied injured hand. He's totally flirting with her, all the while helping to protect her from the legends he knows about the giants smelling blood and of them being dastardly and evil. I especially love when Emma notices his tattoo and calls him out on his real reason for wanting to kill Rumplestiltskin... for him having killed Milah. Such a beautiful moment between these two! :) Also... Killian did steal Milah away from Rumple, and while it was wrong of him to have an affair and to be willing to take her away from her husband and son, Milah was the one who left them. Having willingly left with Killian because they loved one another. I feel that the fault for what happened to Milah was her own, and Rumplestiltskin's. Killian wasn't really to blame. Not nearly as much as Milah was. You can't always help who you fall in love with. Another of my absolute favorite moments, is when Emma and Hook are climbing the beanstalk, when Hook reveals he can read the look of loss and lack of love on her face, because he had lived among the Lost Boys in Neverland for centuries and he understands the reasons for their despair as well. Both Emma and Hook are very perceptive characters, which makes them an amazing team! Just like Hook tells Emma. And in regards to the reasons for Hook and Emma needing to wear the magical cuffs so they can climb the beanstalk... Hook tells the women that the beanstalk has a protection spell surrounding it, keeping any intruders from climbing up to the giants' castle to try to steal the giants' gold and treasures. The cuffs Hook steals from Cora allow for him and Emma, as they would have allowed for him and Cora had they been the ones to go after the compass as was originally planned, to climb the beanstalk against the magic protecting it. Now... I understand why Emma locks Hook's wrist in the shackle in order to force him to stay behind long enough to give her and her mother and their friends a head start. Because she doesn't trust him, especially given the circumstances of her past in regards to Neal, as well as from her parents abandoning her too, and seeing Hook only as a villain. It makes sense that she would be especially skeptical of Hook and his true motives. However, I was just so disappointed in watching this scene play out the first time I ever watched this episode and am still disappointed. Because I really would have loved to see where things went from there on out between the women and Hook had he continued on with them on their journey. In my eyes, Hook truly appears to be genuine in his desire to help them in spite of him being a pirate, and I believe he was telling them the truth. Which is why he is so hurt that Emma would abandon him up there. Especially believing the giant would kill him. Sadly, Emma can only see him as a pirate out for himself though, and she is desperate to get home to her son. And now... Hook is angry all right. I really feel the chemistry between Hook and Emma, and especially with the actors who play them... Colin O'Donoghue and Jennifer Morrison. Both are absolutely fantastic!! They both play off one another so well. Next... I also really like the scene in the very end with David and Henry, as David lights the candle for his grandson to catch Henry's nightmares like he used to do for Snow. It's so sweet. And the parallel between this scene and Aurora having the same nightmares in the Enchanted Forest is fantastic as well. As are the parallels between Emma and Hook, with Emma and Neal eleven years ago, given that Emma and Neal were once thieves, and now Emma is once again stealing something from someone else along with Hook. Now... I am thrilled to see August again in the flashbacks with Neal, and I really like this scene with them. Even though I don't really care much for Neal as an overall character. I think he and Emma have good chemistry, but I don't like that they were both thieves and that Neal didn't really do much to encourage her away from going down the wrong path. Not really. To be fair... Neal is the first of them to suggest he and Emma go clean once they make their way to Tallahassee so they can settle down, but they were still going about trying to get there the wrong way. Once again... I love the parallels between Emma being in love with Neal and them thieving together, while Emma also seems to feel an attraction towards Hook, who is a pirate and known thief as well. You can see there is a genuine draw she feels towards Hook. From when they're climbing up the beanstalk together as Hook convinces her to talk with him about her having been abandoned and being an open book, them both having been in love in their pasts and losing their loves, to them both learning to put their trust in one another. Emma does feel there's more to Hook, but out of fear to trust him more fully, Emma makes a last minute decision in the moment she and Hook are looking at one another, just before she chooses to lock his wrist in the shackle. Emma doesn't just go along with his flirtations. A part of her is definitely attracted to him, while the other part of her... the more sensible part of her, pushes him away because she can't choose to trust him out of fear of him possibly betraying her first. But with all this being said... I love August, and I really wanted to see him more in the present day in Storybrooke upon seeing him make an appearance within Emma's backstory. But it is brilliant to have him come back into the show's story here in this moment nonetheless, to show us the reason why Emma is all alone when she first comes into the story and arrives in Storybrooke. As well as why she was in prison when Henry was born as is revealed back in season one's second episode... The Thing You Love Most, why Emma is so angry with Henry's father revealed by Emma to Mary Margaret in season one's episode... True North, and why he isn't involved in her life or even knows about Henry just like she states to Regina in the Pilot episode. For me... It's so much better with August being the reason for Neal abandoning her, rather than Neal simply abandoning her for the watches like I initially speculated might have been what happened while watching this episode for the first time, before August makes his appearance. It makes their past together that much more intriguing for me. And I love how August convinces Neal to listen to him and to leave Emma, which eventually allows for Emma to change her ways and to stop thieving, then for her to eventually find her way to Storybrooke thanks to Henry having to come find her. And I wish that then we could have found out what August reveals to Neal inside that box. But yet I love this mystery too. Anyone would naturally think August is crazy for going on about magic and such as he does. Yet Neal quickly comes to believe him nonetheless. And it all depends on what's hidden within that box. :) It's just sad learning all that Emma had to go through, with being abandoned by the man she loved when he turned her in, and she becomes imprisoned, and worse... upon her having Henry in prison too. I can't even imagine how difficult her life had been back then. She wasn't innocent in the crimes that landed her in jail, but she didn't deserve that kind of pain. And while Neal did seemingly do right by Emma, so that she would be able to start a new life for herself and then arrive in Storybrooke to break the curse, she doesn't know that. So, her anger towards him is absolutely understandable. So sad. And all of this of course explains why she felt she had to give Henry up for adoption. So he could have a better life she couldn't offer him. Not so long as she remained in prison, then would eventually have to build a new life for herself upon her release, with her time in prison hanging over her head. Emma wanted what was better for her son, so she could give him his best chance, as is shared way back in the Pilot episode as well. Emma's past is so sad and I feel so badly for her, but I absolutely love learning more about her. And as for August being there in the first place... August tells Emma that it wasn't until his own arrival in Storybrooke that he finally found her again. However, this episode, titled... Tallahassee, reveals to us that over the years, he never completely forgets his promise to his father that he would take care of Emma and make sure she comes to Storybrooke upon turning twenty-eight so she can break the curse. And therefore, he had been searching for her within the past years as well. Unfortunately, the temptation of the money Neal gives to him for her was too much of a temptation for August. And August does tell Neal he's not very good at ignoring the temptations he comes across because he isn't built that way... a nod to the reveal of August really being Pinocchio, which I love. It is subtlety revealed in the end of this episode that he steels the money Neal had gotten from fencing the stolen watches, and then strays from trying to help Emma once again. And back in season one's episode... The Stranger, when he tells Emma he got a painful reminder at 815 AM in Phuket, which is at 815 PM in Storybrooke upon Emma's first arrival in Storybrooke, while he was living on the island of Phuket as he started to become wood again... it's because he lost track of Emma once again after stealing this money. Phuket is the name August wrote down for the cops when he sends Emma the keys for her yellow bug, yet no money like Neal asked him to do for her, as is revealed in the end scene when the guard shows Emma what she'd be getting when she is released from prison. So we know then that August had stolen the money, and had started living in Phuket not long after he left Neal in this episode, and where he had been living when he started becoming wood again as he revealed to Emma back in The Stranger. I love all of the great parallels to past episodes in this one! Next... I also like the moment with Mary Margaret helping Aurora to sleep like David did for her when she had nightmares, even without the candle. I like how very motherly she is for Aurora while her own daughter is busy trying to get the compass with Hook. And I love how her own experiences with having nightmares after waking from the sleeping curse, allows for her to be able to now help Aurora too. I also really like how Emma asks Mulan to be the one to cut the beanstalk down in case she didn't return in ten hours. Because she knows her mother would never agree. And I love even more how Mary Margaret fights Mulan to protect her daughter when Mulan starts to cut it down with her enchanted sword, and the moment afterwards between Emma and Mary Margaret as her mother pleads with her daughter never to ask something like that of Mulan again, because they need to return home together. So beautiful. :) And lastly... I really love the giant we meet in this episode and especially how he reveals that the victors were the ones to tell the stories their way, to make all people believe giants were evil, when in fact none of it is true. This giant isn't evil at all. Just lonely, misunderstood, and sad after there had been a great battle between the giants and humans that wound up killing all the rest of his family. The special effects for the giant might not be so great, but I really like this overall storyline with him, and I like the actor who plays him a lot too. Jorge Garcia, who I know and love from another TV show... Hawaii Five-0. I never watched Lost because I never had any interest in it, but I also know he's from that show as well, which is pretty cool. But I am always able to look past all of the special effects within this show when they appear to be bad, because I appreciate this show so much and I absolutely love the stories that this show's creators, writers, and especially the actors are trying to tell. :) Overall... I really love this episode so much and it is definitely one of my overall favorite episodes throughout season two!! Thank you again, so much for reacting to Once Upon a Time, Travis!!!! Be well and be happy. :) Until next time, my friend... Sincerely, Heidi

what’s in the box!!!??

Olivia Grace Miller

i can not wait until you get to the later seasons and also Neal is the guy from the first episode of this season and idk if you remeber or not but when he got to his place brid came by with a post card that was from Storybrook and it said broken and yes he is Henry's dad

Staton Chapman

Once Killian found out she was married but yet he didn't stop it in my opinion makes him just as guilty and wrong as her. Just my opinion tho

Heidi Elizabeth Marcum

Guilty of the affair... Yes. Absolutely. But Milah got herself killed when she chose to taunt the Dark One. And their issues go way, way back. Their hatred of one another, Milah's death, etc... It's all on Rumple and Milah. Not on Hook.

I love the Easter eggs from this episode! Regina even asked Emma “what was so great about Tallahassee? When she had Sydney do a deep dive into Emma in season 1!
