Once Upon A Time & The Power of Love


“How do you know if it’s really love?” If anyone wants to know the answer to that question then they need to watch last night’s episode of Once Upon A Time. Love is strong in the face of adversity and it makes Wicked things hesitate and falter.

Zelena’s plot seems to be unravelling a bit. Hook has refused to use his sexy mouth on Emma and suck her magic out so the Queen of Green has decided to kick things up a notch by threatening Henry. In order to protect him, Charming, Snow, Regina and Emma finally decide that it is time for Henry to learn the truth and they go in search of the book.

While they are searching we learn a lot more about the missing year in the Enchanted Forest. After finding the Good Witch of the North, our heroes and Regina learn that Zelena can be stopped by removing her pendant. Only the strongest light magic can do this so Snow and Charming know they have to get back to Storybrooke and Emma. But, the only way to do that is to enact the Dark Curse again and we know what that means…

Charming offers his heart as sacrifice but Zelena interrupts the Curse and adds an element of forgetting to the mix so that no one will remember how to defeat her.  Charming is dead and Snow demands that Regina take Snow’s heart and split it. She and Charming are of one heart anyway and Snow would rather die than live without him.

This was such an amazing symbol because it played out a couple of times. Snow and Charming. Then Neal and Rumple. I love how no matter the odds each character was willing to fight for the greater good and willing to risk all when it came to love.
I also loved how this time Regina broke the Curse and how comfortable she is with being on the side of good for a change. Can’t wait for next episode and the arrival of Dorothy – should be interesting how the little girl from Kansas plays into things.
