Once Upon A Time - 4x13 “Unforgiven” FULL REACTION

Comments

You're absolutely right, that Hook having history with Ursula absolutely makes sense, and it wouldn't make sense if this wasn't so. With Hook being over two hundred years old, having sailed the Jolly Roger through many worlds and him being one of the most famous pirate Captains known throughout the Enchanted Forest, Neverland, and many other worlds too, of course he would come across the Sea Witch. And I love their storyline. It's my favorite storyline throughout the Queens of Darkness arc.

I mean, if Ursula didn’t have history with Hook, it wouldn’t make sense. To me, it made sense as to how these 2 have history because Hook sailed The Jolly Roger across the ocean many times, and you’re gonna tell me he never ONCE saw Ursula who literally lives in the ocean? Also, the only thing that I like about Will and Belle is that Belle isn’t doing this to make Rumple jealous, she has no idea Rumple is in town, nobody does (except for the Queens of Darkness) she is doing this for herself and I think that’s the most important part of their relationship.

Hiedi Marcum. I've been on Patreon for several months now, and I wanted to let you know that I appreciate you in depth posts on each episode of OUAT. You're breakdown is always very thorough and well thought out, and it has given me a greater appreciation of the show and the characters. This recognition may seem strange or out of the blue, but we all like a little validation sometimes, so I hope this comes as a compliment and knowing that they are appreciated encourages you to keep writing these wonderful comments :)

Unforgiven- Thank you so much for another reaction for Once Upon a Time!! I really enjoy this episode. This episode isn't as exciting as others, and not as strong as we've had in the past, but it's building up to what's to come and what's to come within the last half of this arc is fabulous. :) But I still really enjoy this episode nonetheless, and my favorite moment is the moment in the end between Killian and Emma. I can understand why Emma was upset with Killian for attempting to lie to her about not remembering his past with Ursula, even though it pains me that she was upset with him. However, Killian is so afraid that there are some things he's done in his past that will eventually be too much for Emma, and that she will one day come to see he isn't worth her love. He's afraid of losing her because of his sins, and that much is very evident in these scenes between them. Killian is ashamed of all he's done since becoming a villain and a pirate, particularly of what he's done to Ursula. So this end moment between Killian and Emma is just so powerful and moving to me, because we finally see that Emma is willing and able to accept that all the things Killian did while still a villain, was in his past and that he's clearly no longer that man any longer. I love how Emma assures Killian that nothing bad he's done in his past will ever push her away, and that she is able to see only the good in him. I also love how she assures Killian that he can tell her the truth about what he's done to Ursula, in his own time. Whenever he's ready to. Absolutely beautiful. And this moment between them is absolutely necessary for their relationship to be able to move forward. It's so important for Killian to know without a doubt that Emma will be able to forgive him for anything villainous he's ever done, given that problems from his past will no doubt continue to come back to haunt him again. :) And then they go to kiss and of course Emma's parents accidentally disrupt them, after overhearing Emma's and Killian's whole conversation, which unfortunately, changes Mary Margaret's and David's minds once again, making them feel they still can't tell Emma the truth about what they did in their own pasts. Which brings me to the backstory between Snow, Charming, Maleficent, Ursula, and Cruella... Yikes! It's so not good and it's really sad seeing both Snow and Charming lose a little of that innocence we've known of them for so long now. Obviously... everyone makes mistakes, but in this case... we've learned that Snow's and Charming's mistakes caused Maleficent to lose her child in some way, as is revealed in the very end within the final scene between Mary Margaret and Regina. But I will get back to that in a moment. I like the overall storyline as the heroes and villains team up together to seek out the Tree of Life in search of an answer on how they can stop the Evil Queen from casting her dark curse. I like seeing how both heroes and villains understand how bad the curse would be for everyone... hero or villain, and that they understand the need for teaming up together. However, Snow and Charming sneak off on their own after witnessing Maleficent kill innocent men in order to get past the guards guarding the gates that lead to this tree. Snow and Charming fear that the tree won't give them the answer they seek should they arrive with the villains in tow. However, the tree still doesn't give them an answer, as it senses a potential for great evil within Snow, and Maleficent reveals why, as we learn that Snow is pregnant with Emma, who has potential to be a great hero, or to be a great villain as well, which is why we learn that the Chernabog from the last episode, Darkness on the Edge of Town... was going after Emma, and not Regina. Very interesting. And also very sad too. And there's so much more to come within this storyline, that includes just how Snow and Charming are responsible for Maleficent losing her child. Now... I really like the two moments when Mary Margaret and Snow both awaken to find Maleficent standing before her in the dark. To Mary Margaret it's in a dream, given that Maleficent is still dead at this point, and to Snow within the past she appears to her for real. Very scary indeed. I would be terrified. And I love both of their conversations too, as Maleficent seeks Snow's help once more, asking her to do so as a mother because she too is about to be a mother as well. And how it the dream, Maleficent's appearance to Mary Margaret was a warning of what's to come. And Maleficent is alive once again!! I really love how Cruella, Ursula, and Gold all team up together in order to resurrect Maleficent, by luring David and Mary Margaret into a trap that they easily fall for because they're so afraid of their secret being revealed, especially to Emma. And I find it interesting that all they needed to resurrect Maleficent was a little of their blood because they are the ones who wronged her most, and Maleficent's ashes left behind in the mines after Emma had killed her in her dragon form. Its interesting, and yet I absolutely love it too! :) However, as much as I love this idea... it's a bit inconsistent and it seems too easy, especially when Gold/Rumplestiltskin has said on multiple occasions in the past that the dead cannot be raised and brought back to life. However, I do believe that it's possible because Maleficent's soul had been cursed to remain trapped in whichever form she happened to find herself... a dragon upon being brought over int he curse in her dragon form, and then a mummified beast since she had been killed like when Hook was forced to fight her back in season two's episode, The Evil Queen. Regina told this to Emma back in season one's episode, A Land Without Magic. Either way... it's still exciting and I love that Maleficent is back again and the Queens of Darkness have been reunited. :) As for the storyline with Regina seeking answers about the Author with Henry's and Emma's help... I love that we finally get to see Geppetto and Pinocchio again, as they try to jog Pinocchio's memory from when he had been August, upon Regina getting the idea from the storybook when she discovers the pages from Pinocchio's story are different from the rest. This whole storyline was really good and I especially love the scene between Regina and Geppetto, when Regina comes to him in his garage to apologize for lashing out at them. It's quite a beautiful moment, and I love that Geppetto gives Regina August's things in hope that she and Henry can use them to finds some answers... which Henry does. In the end, it shows Henry finding a page out of the storybook showing a simple picture of a door, with a sticky note scribed by August that talks about the Author. Very interesting. :) And lastly... I love the little montage in the end showing Henry finding this page, as well as showing Emma and Killian walking arm in arm down the street looking as adorable as always, and finally Gold as he's watching Belle through the window of his shop, only for him to see her talking with Will Scarlet and then kiss, appearing as though Belle has already moved on. Not good. I don't care much for this moment, because I just don't like the idea of Belle and Will being together, just because it did come from out of nowhere and while Will is technically listed as a main cast character, he hasn't been in the show enough to be included as such. And I don't care all that much for his character aside from a few great scenes within the Frozen arc between him and Killian, him and Robin, and him and between him and Mary Margaret. Thank you so much! Like always... I love your reaction for this episode and I cannot wait for all the rest to come. Until your reaction for the next episode, Enter the Dragon...
