Hi guys! For the past week I have been uploading my reactions to Patreon directly since I have a certain amount of hours per month and I can upload the videos in better quality than in Dropbox because I have limited space there (and I'm actually running out :') that's why I started using Patreon) I have been told the Patreon video player lags so if it lags for you let me know and I'll upload and edit the Dropbox link here! I (in lower quality, like I've always done there)

In Dropbox, you will be able to stream only an hour of video, if the reaction is over an hour and you'd like to see the rest of it you're gonna have to download the reaction. Sorry about that.

Labor of Love- Thank you so much for another great reaction for a pretty great episode, Sora!! I really enjoy this episode a lot! And it certainly brings up nostalgic feelings as I always think of Disney's, Hercules. I've always loved Hercules and all of its characters!! Both from the fun Disney movie, from the 90s show with Kevin Sorbo... Hercules: The Legendary Journeys, as well as upon learning all about Hercules in numerous classes in which I learned about Greek Mythology. Hercules legends are just a lot of fun! And this episode of Once Upon a Time always bring back fond memories I have from watching them, especially the Disney movie, as often as I have because I love it so much! :) I really love Jonathan Whitesell in the role of Hercules throughout this episode. Both in the present day storyline, as well as in the backstory between him and young Snow too, of course. This actor plays Hercules very well, and I love his chemistry with both Ginnifer Goodwin and with Bailee Madison. And I just really enjoy his overall story arc throughout this episode! Jonathan Whitesell is a great choice for playing a young Hercules! I enjoy his arc, just enough to feel like I will miss him now that he and Megara have moved on from the Underworld. I certainly wish he would have been more of a character throughout this Underworld arc as a whole. Oh... And I really love hearing the theme music from Disney's, Hercules, played throughout this episode whenever Hercules is onscreen, and i loved that we hear a hint of his song from this beloved Disney classic... Go the Distance, in the background of his scenes with Snow too! As for Megara, or Meg... For me, she's just okay. Kacey Rohl plays this role fine, but I honestly feel she's a little boring. I wish that this actress played Meg with a little more spunk so she could be a little more like her character from the Disney movie, whom I love because of her spunk. Plus... Throughout most of this episode, I felt like there was a twist coming that never actually happened. A twist that I would have really liked too, but sadly we don't get it. Throughout most of this episode, I expected some kind of twist where it would be revealed that Megara was working with Hades. Unwillingly of course, much like she does in the Disney movie. I just really felt like this was where her story arc was going, but no. Instead, we really do just get a damsel in distress. It's not a bad thing. I just hoped for a little more with her character. I hoped to see her being forced to work with Hades against her will, until Hercules and the rest of our heroes helped her to be free of him. I think her character would have been much better if her story had been written a little differently. Nonetheless... I really enjoy Hercules' and Megara's overall story! I love how Snow has to help remind Hercules of the true hero he really is after forgetting for a while because he had failed in his final labor and died upon being killed by Cerberus. And I absolutely love that it is because of her time spent with Hercules again, and thanks to Regina as well, that Mary Margaret is reminded of who she really is as Snow White, and chooses to remain Snow White, not Mary Margaret any longer. Mary Margaret suits her back throughout season one, but she is definitely Snow White to me. Always and forever! :) Now... The first of my favorite scenes is the moment when Hades appears and first introduces himself to Emma, Snow, Regina, and comes before his nephew too. I love how Greg Germann plays Hades, and I love how dark his character makes the Underworld feel. And of course, I hate that Hades is enjoying torturing and tormenting poor Killian, but I also love it too. Because while Hades isn't the Devil because the Underworld isn't technically Hell, it makes so much sense that he would be so cruel and manipulative. Hades is the God and ruler of the Underworld. He isn't always portrayed to be evil all of the myths and stories about Hades, but I love seeing him being portrayed as such here in Once Upon a Time. But back to this scene where Hades comes before our heroes... I absolutely love how he mocks each of them, until he then turns to Emma and cruelly reveals Killian's now bloodied hook in order to hurt her by showing her that he has been torturing the man she loves, which has been done offscreen. This is just a brilliantly acted scene, especially by Hades and Emma too. I love it! A few more of my favorite scenes are those between Killian and Hades as well! I am so happy that we finally get more with Killian, since in the previous episode, titled... Souls of the Departed, we barely see him. Not for more than a few seconds at most. And while it is heartbreaking to see Killian so bloodied and in so much pain, it makes sense that Hades would be paying him so much attention, since the living heroes have come down from their world above and are disrupting his world by helping his subjects and prisoners trapped in his realm to move on. Sadly, Killian is currently Hades' best bargaining chip and shield against them all. Killian is his best way to hurt them, especially Emma. And through all of Hades' torment and pain inflicted upon him... Killian remains strong and brave, and refuses to allow this evil God to see his fear and pain. And I love him all the more for it!!!! :) And my final favorite moment within this episode, comes in the end when Snow reveals to David that she no longer wants to be Mary Margaret any longer, but Snow White again instead. And she smiles at Regina because Regina helped her to fight through her funk. And then, I love seeing Charming smile at her as he calls his wife Snow again, which he really hasn't done for some time now. I love, love, love the way Charming looks at Snow. And knowing that their love for one another is truly real because the actors are married in real life, makes the way they both look at one another that much more powerful and special. Thanks to Snow, both Hercules and Megara are able to meet again and are finally able to move on from the Underworld, because they are able to defeat Cerberus together. And I love this. Cerberus' defeat seems too easy for sure. And even the special effects for this Hellhound aren't all that great, except for when we only see its red glowing eyes. But I still love the overall idea of Hercules having to defeat this Hellhound being the way to help him and Megara movie on. And I love that they move on together, as they walk into the light together hand in hand that leads them to Mount Olympus... Their own Heaven. It's beautiful. I also really appreciate that Megara takes a moment to tell Emma that it is thanks to Hook that she was able to become free at last. And that she asks Emma to let Killian know that he was right to trust her. While Megara is just an okay character for me, this moment for her makes me like her a bit more than I initially did throughout the rest of this episode, and it makes me really love that we're able to see the beginning of her love story with Hercules that we know from Disney's, Hercules. I love seeing Emma, Regina, Robin, Henry, Snow, and Charming all work together in the beginning to find Killian before they move on with trying to help others. And while Snow does find Hercules and they all help him and Megara to move on instead before they find Killian, they do so while still searching for Killian and for a way to save him. I love the backstory between Hercules and young Snow, and seeing how Hercules is the one to teach Snow how to fight with a bow and arrow, while he also helps her to find her confidence within herself. The confidence she needs so she can become the Princess and Queen her people need her to be. And I really love the moment of their shared kiss, which I suspect is probably Snow's first kiss. More so... While this kiss between them is adorable, I love that no romance comes between them. Because you can see that their kiss is more of a kiss showing us that they have simply grown fond of one another. Just very dear friends. Also... I love the moment we see David become a little bit jealous upon learning that Snow knew Hercules, whom he of course knows to be a God, or rather a Demi-God. David's jealousy in this moment is very cute. And I love that Snow sees it as only his way of teasing her a little. So cute! Next... I love that we have a smaller storyline between Henry and Robin, who split off from the others to continue with their search for Killian by seeking out a possible way of finding him faster. Which leads to Henry coming face to face again with Cruella. I love his conversation with Cruella while inside of the Underworld's version of his mother's office. Cruella is a fantastic villain, and I love that by our heroes coming down into the Underworld, it allows for us to see all of these past villains again like Cruella. I also love that Cruella reveals information to Henry and to us about the Author's quill, saying that it is a living entity capable of dying, which means that it too is down here in the Underworld. I hate that Henry doesn't tell Robin about having met Cruella, but I love this confrontation. And while Cruella taunts Henry by reminding him of how Emma had killed her, and claims that by him helping her to come back to life again would dissolve Emma of her act of murder... I completely disagree. First of all... Emma did not necessarily murder Cruella. She defended Henry, fearing for her son's life and not knowing that Cruella wasn't actually able to hurt him. Emma may have lashed out against Cruella out of anger, but I still feel that Emma has no real need of being dissolved of murder. She just needs to find peace with herself upon having to kill her. And second... Even if Emma had actually murdered Cruella, she still initially committed such an act because Cruella is dead and here in the Underworld. Bringing Cruella back from the dead most certainly wouldn't absolve Emma of said murder because it still happened in the first place. Twisted logic there, Cruella. And then... I love the beginning when Killian reveals to Megara that he had heard Emma's message to him that she was here to find and save him, and that he believes Emma truly has come for him because he believes so deeply in their love for one another. And I love how Killian is willing to sacrifice his chance at freedom and to find Emma, so that Megara can run to her freedom from their prison instead. Knowing full well that by doing so, it would mean more torture and torment for him. I love Killian!! :) And lastly... I love this episode very much!! It's a lot of fun and it's beautiful too. I love getting to know Hercules a little, and seeing his friendship with Snow. And I love that the events within this episode allows for Snow to become Snow White again, not just Mary Margaret. Regina and Hercules are wonderful for helping her to see that Snow is stronger than just Mary Margaret. I love Labor of Love! Thank you once more for an amazing reaction, Sora! I am excited for you to be able to continue to enjoy this fabulous Underworld arc! :) Sincerely, Heidi
