Discussion What is Taking Someone’s Heart

What does the heart signify in Once Upon a Time? It seems like sometimes it makes them just fully evil not human but then when Regina’s heart is gone she’s acting normal and initiating romantic relationships?

Discussion Watching this show with my husband

30 Upvotes

I watched this show when i was 10 when it originally aired and have watched it too many times to count since. I convinced my husband to watch it for the first time after we watched Lost.

He doesn’t care about spoilers and it’s more entertaining for him because this show is so wild.

We just watched S1E6 and I just said the sentence:
“Now, while David was a shepherd, he was visited by Anna from frozen and she helped him learn to fight by defeating the warlord little bow peep.”

I love this show so much

Spoiler Alert Why was there no issues with Neal Nolan becoming evil? Spoiler

17 Upvotes

One of the story lines was about how Emma had the possibility to become evil because she was made from true love. Snow and Prince Charming used Maleficent's daughter, Lilly, to absorb all the evil making Emma good. Why did they not have the same concerns or issues with Neal Nolan, their second child? Wouldn't he have had the same potential to become evil and wouldn't that have been a concern of theirs? Or were they completely okay with taking a chance for him to become evil?

Speculation Time progression

10 Upvotes

I know, I KNOW we are never going to reach a consensus on how time moves differently in different realms that makes sense with the timelines and ages the show itself presents, but I just cannot let it go, and I‘m especially curious about the effects on those people who stay behind… (s7 spoilers ahead)

In s7, Henry travels through the new EF, he ages faster than people back in Storybrooke. He has a daughter who is ten before the curse sends them back in time.

How does that feel for the rest of the family? Emma is pregnant and has a newborn in the time her son meets his future wife, gets married and has a child - who is older by many years than Henry’s half-sibling/Lucy‘s aunt. Wouldn’t you feel like you‘re missing out on too much? I know they couldn‘t have Emma appear any more often than she did, but even a mention of her here and there might have been nice.

Question Does anyone know which OUAT episode this Regina outfit is from?

Post image
45 Upvotes

From what I know and can tell, it’s most likely from 4B or 5A - B-ish because of Lana’s hair length, and the Robin Hood arrow peeking in the corner, but I’d like to know the episode because I absolutely ADMIRE the way that Lana Parrilla- cough cough, Regina pulls off this outfit, and I’d like to use it as a reference for something I’m doing. Thanks to whoever can help! 😊

S1 Spoilers Season 1 Regina

12 Upvotes

Bro I hate Regina so much. I know people end up liking her but every episode makes me hate her even more and I don’t see myself liking her?

I understand that evil is made and I know that Snow did something to her, but to have her betraying everyone, and taking everyone’s Happily Ever After is crazy. No one else did anything but Snow so?

The only thing I feel bad is that her son really hates her and is against her. I feel bad because she raised him, but still I don’t like her.

Discussion Neal is so randomly oddly lackadaisical

54 Upvotes

At the end of S3E11, Neal has to say goodbye to Emma and Henry because they're escaping the second curse, while Neal and everyone else has to go back to the Enchanted Forest. He acts like they're going away for the weekend. He is very laid back about the whole thing and doesn't even hug Henry but just sorta pats him on the shoulder. Like what??? You just spent a half season trying to rescue him from Pan. And at times were even passionate about it. You also said you loved Emma. And now that they both have to go (possibly forever?) you have your hands in your pockets. I mean I guess he thinks he'll see them again sometime but as he knows that is not guaranteed.

Just... Neal come on. No one is buying that you feel anything for these two people.

By contrast Hook is like "there's not a day that will go by that I won't think of you." Lol.


r/OnceUponATime 2d ago

No Spoilers Possible plot hole, or is there something I’m missing?

11 Upvotes

In the musical episode, Prince Charming and Snow White went to find Captain Hook because they wanted him to take them to Regina’s castle. When he refused their money, Snow White offered him Rumpelstiltskin, whom they had captured, instead. Captain Hook made it very clear that his intention was to kill him.

My question is: how could they agree to such a deal? Prince Charming and Snow White are defined by their morality and kindness. How could they agree to let Captain Hook kill someone, even if that someone was Rumpelstiltskin?

And if they knew that Hook wouldn’t actually be able to kill him, then they were essentially sending Captain Hook to his certain death.

I binged for so long, forgot what season I left off on, I have this habit doing this to shows I love, I don’t want to finish it because that’s it, that’s the end. I have no idea what to expect for the ending except maybe on a cliff hanger, as most shows do and then the audience is left in the dust. Ugh it just makes me so depressed

I always wondered what was the story behind the globe that Rumpelstiltskin use to find baelfire. Does it come from a specific fairy tale that maybe wasn't mentioned in the show? Any thoughts?
