The Final Battle Part One- Love, love, love these episodes within this incredible two part finale!!!! Phenomenal!!! :) First, in answer to your question regarding the man and little girl within the Enchanted Forest in the beginning of this episode... This is the beginning of the set up for what's to come in season seven. More answers will come in the second half of this two part finale. Now... I have to say that this final battle that Emma is fighting, is nothing at all like I imagined it would be. And overall... I absolutely love it! I love this overall story arc throughout this episode for many reasons. One reason being... Because it shows us just how powerful Emma's belief is. How powerful all Saviors' beliefs in magic and hope is. And it is so beautiful. And poor Emma was so lost and hopeless, more so than she ever was before she first arrived in Storybrooke back in season one. The Black Fairy most certainly underestimated Henry's strength and hope to keep fighting for Emma and for his family. Sadly... Emma has now burned the book in the furnace, and our heroes are all in very real danger. A new darkness is looming towards them. However, in the very end, we see Emma staring curiously down at the burning page of Captain Hook. And because Emma had the flashes of her marrying Killian the day before at their wedding when Henry brings her to the roof, I can't help but wonder if there is a small part of her that still believes. Perhaps even more than she believed just before she burned the book. And if this is so... I love it! I love seeing Emma have flashes of Killian as she's struggling to believe for Henry's sake, and I love that the book magically opens up for Emma to a page also showing Killian, in the hope of it being powerful enough to make her remember the man she truly loves. Absolutely phenomenal!!! :) As for why all of our heroes and all those within all of the many other realms are now in danger of being destroyed because of Emma's failing belief... I believe that it must be a part of the Black Fairy's curse she has cast over everyone. Just because all of our storybook characters existed long before Emma was even born, and before Emma ever came to believe in them all and in magic back in season one's finale... A Land Without Magic. So, my only guess is that Fionna must have created her curse to cause all of this to happen. Because Emma stopped believing in everyone and in magic in the second half of season three because she had been cursed then by Pan. I hope all my answers and thoughts make sense. Next... I really love how once again Emma's family and those closest to her aside from Henry, are all transported to the Enchanted Forest once again. Except for Zelena, who was actually transported back to Oz, as we learn when she uses one of Jefferson's old hats to come to the Enchanted Forest to be with her sister and their friends. And I love how almost immediately, Emma's lack of belief begins to cause all the realms to disappear one by one. So scary. And now... I absolutely love, love, love that Killian leaves the castle to climb the beanstalk for the magic bean when Regina refuses to even hear him out once he comes up with an idea. I also love that David chases after him to help him, because he does believe in Killian. And I absolutely love Killian's speech about him and Emma fighting for their love. An absolutely beautiful nod to season two's sixth episode... Tallahassee, when Killian and Emma climb their first beanstalk. I absolutely love Killian's strength and fight to get back to the woman he loves. Oh... And I love that David calls Killian son, then son in law when Killian cockily raises his brow!! So, so adorable!!!I I just absolutely love Killian's and David's friendship and relationship. It's really quite something. And I've loved their overall dynamic ever since season three's episode... Good Form, when Hook tricks David to come with him up to Devil's Peak in Neverland in order to save him from the dreamshade poisoning. And it's quite beautiful that it is now Charming who climbs the beanstalk with Killian, if it can't be Emma. :) Then... Killian gets the bean, he and David are forced to run from a dragon hiding out in the giants' castle. I don't know if this dragon is meant to be someone we know. I don't believe so, given that whoever this dragon is, has to be half giant to. Because if you remember... Killian and David were never shrunken by any magic spell. They're inside the giants' castle, where everything is giant. So, either this dragon is half giant, or there is some other unknown giant now living here ever since Tiny vacated it years earlier upon him being brought to Storybrooke by Hook and Cora, and this giant is keeping a dragon as a security measure. Next... I am so, so happy to see the Evil Queen come back for this two part finale too!! And I am happy to hear that she and Robin are now robbing from the rich and giving to the poor... or at least most of it. :) It's wonderful to see her again as well!! As for Fionna using Henry as a way to help destroy Emma's belief... So cold and cruel. It makes absolute sense that she would use Henry as a way to get to Emma. And it's working. Which is not good. And boy... While I love the Black Fairy as a villainess within this show, I hate her too because she's so cruel!! I love to hate her, like I love to hate Rumplestiltskin. And lastly, in regards to my feelings towards Rumple and Gideon being cursed to believe that Belle has simply run off on them to see the world on her own... For the most part, I do enjoy this storyline. It's nice to see Gold and Gideon are together, and it's nice to see Gold defend Belle to Gideon upon him refusing to believe that she didn't leave them, whereas Gold still believes that she couldn't have just left them. Especially not to go off on her own to see the world like she's always dreamt of doing. The real question is... Is Gold truly cursed, or is he awake? What a fantastic reaction for this first episode within the two part finale, Dodo!! Thank you so much!! I can't wait to see your reaction to the second part of this finale!! It's so good! What a story, and what a set up for season seven too!! Until next week, dear friend... Thank you! Sincerely, Heidi
