In reply to Matthew Calero. I read a theory that Lily could also be Jasmine from Aladdin, they both have flower's names, and also her story about wanting to get out of her home fits, but they mentioning "Lilith" instead of "Lily" could also mean something else, as you pointed out.

In reply to shaunn. I was thinking the same thing about the mirror. When I saw the episode, I thought it might have been a reference to the mirror in The Snow Queen. I really want to see what she's planning to use it for now that they've established that it's part of her plan.

I suspect that the Snow Queen is connected to the original Hans Christian Anderson story in some way. The mirror that she has assembled reminds me of the devil’s mirror that is an important part of the original story. I wonder if the Snow Queen is Gerda, or some variation on Gerda.
The idea that she wants a family to love her certainly fits with her role as a foster mother. The rest of this is all highly mysterious. How does the same woman exist as a foster mother on regular Earth, Elsa’s (supposed) aunt in Arendelle (who was trapped in a mystic container) and also find her way to Storybrooke, apparently because of Emma? I am genuinely curious to see how the writers bring all of this together.
The “build a snowman” wasn’t a pun but a homage to “Frozen.” But I agree that all of the references to the movie are a bit cheesy. Just (sorry) let it go! 😉

I was just so beyond confused about the connection on the Snow Queen and Emma so IDK there. I think The Snow Queen wants Elsa mainly because she is more powerful and can take down the Snow Queen so she tries to get Elsa on her side? Just guessing! I really love the fact Henry works for his grandpa! Really cool and we better have a great Mickey’s Apprentice moment! Wait what lord business? I wanna know more about Lily! I mean she must be important right? RIGHT?! I hope maybe Regina in the near future could maybe be like a second mother to Emma I mean they sort of have things in common and I would just love to see that and not just constant bickering, unless it was funny then keep that going on!
Over all I really enjoyed the episode, again not as amazing as last weeks but pretty great, and can someone talk about the promo we saw! ANNA COULD DIE!! I will so kill the writers if they do!!!

Emma has really grown in these past two episodes than she has in the past seasons put together! I mean, last episode she opened herself up enough to start dating Hook, she finally hasa pproper heart-to-heart with Regina, confronts her past and even opens up enough to shed a tear or to on Hook’s shoulder. Good for her!

Anyways, I am going to put forth a little theory here: I think Lily is the Snow Queen. She mentions that she was an orphan but was adopted, perhaps she was from Areindelle and was transported to our world? She also has dark brown hair, just like Anna and Elsa’s mom and It seems likely that if it wasn’t for her ice powers, Elsa would have the same hair color as her mom. Maybe Lily’s hair changed when she realized her powers or was cursed? Lily also tells Emma that even though she has a family she doesn’t feel loved and what does the Snow Queen want? A family that loves her. Lastly, Lily’s full first name is Lilith, a demon woman in Jewish mythology. Why on earth would the writers name one of their characters after a demon? To hint that she’s evil!

So basically what I think happened was that Lily was transported to our world when she was a very young, lived on earth with only the star as a reminder of her origins, found her way back into Areindelle, grew up into the Snow Queen and then returned to our world when Emma was older and found her way into Storybrooke.

Gosh, I hope I’m at least partly right so all this typing wasn’t for nothing!

The episode was a miss for me, the entire use of Frozen puns are starting to drive me crazy plus did they really need to do the whole let it go bridge scene, cause I found it useless. The one thing I started to enjoy seeing again was the relationship between Emma and Regina. But other than that it was jarring
