Yeah I know I saw the show, I just didn’t explain the whole thing

I loves the episode too, I though it was a real strong episode like back in season 1 or 2, the flashbacks blended well with the whole story, I still feel that rumple want Neil back and possibly the hat is probably on only last way to possibly being him back somehow. But I’m still loving the plot so far, it’s getting better and better and I love the snow queen, I’m starting to like her more than the wicked witch, but I still love the wicked witch

Basically Will and the Red Queen (Not to be confused with Cora, the Queen of Hearts) were from the Enchanted Forest and were in love with each other but the Red Queen (named Anastasia) was a princess and Will was a theif, so they ran away to Wonderland in hopes of a new life together. However, instead starting over Will continues stealing, much to Anastasia’s displeasure. One night they go to steal at a ball where Anastasia meets the Red King. The Red King charms Anastasia with the promise of being Queen and she agrees to marry him, breaking Will’s heart. Anastasia feels bad and Cora (who’s been snooping around on the Red kingdom’s business) seeing this as weakness decides to get rid of Will from Anastasia’s life forever. Cora goes to Will and promises she can take away his pain by taking his heart out. She does so and since she has his heart she now can control him, so she makes him into her servant and the Knave of Hearts is born and what Will was talking about when he talks about ruining your life for love.

So how does Will know Robin? He was one of Robin Hood’s merry men once! In the original Robin Hood stories, Will Scarlett was one of the youngest members of the gang and whom Will is based on, along with the Knave of Hearts. spent time with them for a little while until he managed to get them to go Maleficent’s castle in order to get a huge chest of gold in order to feed an entire village. He steals another artifact (I can’t remember which one and the OUaT wiki doesn’t talk about it either) while he’s there and when they get back to camp Maleficent’s voice can be heard saying that they can keep the gold but she wants the artifact back. Robin made everyone promise that they would only take what was necessary and nothing else, so he sees Will’s actions as a betrayal of his trust and is why they’re not on the best of terms.

As for how I felt about the episode, this article sums it all up pretty nicely, Ingrid’s backstory broke my heart but I’m a bit disappointed that we won’t know how exactly the royal family has ice powers.

Well in OUATW the knave (will scarlet) was a thief who was in love with a girl named Anastatia (yeah you’ll figure out which one as we go) and the knave was part of robin hoods band of misfits and when they planed to steel from maleficent knave took a mirror that can travel to another land called wonderland and when robin found out he kicked will out of the band but will didn’t care and went back to Ana and when lady tremaine was all “you can never come back” she left and they ran away but were poor and when Ana went to steal from the red king she was caught but he offered for her hand in marriage and she accepted and became the red queen and will was so heart broken that he went to Cora (the queen of hearts) to take out his heart when Ana was gonna leave the kingdom to be with Will Cora told her that will had left and she then taught Ana dark magic and all this stuff happened with Alice and Jafar but long story short Will go this heart back fell back in love with Ana, jafar killed Ana but was saved with this magic water and they ended up together as the White king and queen of Wonderland and that’s as far as we know (idk what happened to Ana)

I too want to know what the Snow Queen whispered to Rumplestiltskin, but I never really thought that he’d ever want world domination. I mean, it’s like he’s reverting to the Rumplestiltskin before he met his son. And now that his son is dead, he’s become worse all over again.
