Once Upon a Time: Second Star to the Right Review Part 2

ORIGINALLY WRITTEN IN FACEBOOK:


Once Upon a Time: Second Star to the Right Review Part 2:

This soapy triangle can take a back seat to this mysterious home office that is mentioned. So these two work for someone and whoever this person is will probably be much more interesting than Tomorrow and Greg. At least I'm hoping this will be true. In the torture chamber, Hook is having a little conversation with a pre-fried Regina. Loyalties are so convoluted on this show aren't they? Dare I say Hook and Regina have a little chemistry together? Well, it seems the "where's my father" storyline is going to take a back seat to taking magic out of the world. Poor naive Regina doesn't know about shock therapy/torture. She's going to get a first hand experience with that. Was this suppose to be payback for all the evil things she's done to people? Did this shock her back to being Regina or just to being more devious and clever? We'll see later won't we? Why do I feel sorry for her? Guess it all comes down to the incredible character and the actress who plays her! I wonder how many times she's shocked in this episode?

Back in Victorian London, Wendy's parents find out she's been hiding a boy in the nursery. Do they scold her and kick the dirty boy out of the house? No, they welcome him into their home as their third son. Remember they already have John and Michael. If only it could be so easy for the real orphans of the world.

Emma is suspecting Tomorrow of kidnapping Regina and Bae Smoker still doesn't want to believe it. He's like,"Hey, stop dissing on my woman. She gives me smokes!"

Wendy talks of a magical shadow and little Bae is like, "Shut up girl! Magic comes with a price! This thing is straight up evil. Don't you go messing around with it again!" She promises along with her curious brothers but that quickly flies out the window so to speak.

Snow and David Charming visit Golden Lace for some answers. Gold tells boozer Belle to leave. All he has this time is a bottle of tears. Well, it helps more than you would think though. With a tear from Snow added to Regina's tears now Snow can feel whatever Regina is feeling at the moment. This was a great way to show how Regina feels when she's not tortured but that doesn't come across. All we get is Snow feeling those little shocks she's getting.

Lacey finds out Gold can do magic through this little venture. Which leads to her wanting to become immortal with Gold. Not liking Lacey even more now!

Wendy quickly breaks her promise and goes with The Shadow only to return and Bae finds out that Neverland is not a happy place and the children there are treated like slaves.

Tomorrow acts like she doesn't know anything about Regina but this doesn't stop Emma. Regina later learns the boring couple are here to not steal magic but destroy it. Over at Charming Central Snow has felt Regina's feelings and she mentions that she smelled sardines which triggers Emma into thinking maybe she's at the Storybrooke Cannery. Side note: All this stuff with docks and sea side stuff. I'm surprised The Little Mermaid hasn't been brought up in the town yet. Wouldn't it be nice to have someone run into Granny's Diner saying they've seen a mermaid by the docks? That would rock!

The Charmings and Bae Smoker all team up at the Cannery to find Regina and the baddies. They get spotted and the Bores are packing up to leave. Greg ups the tension trying to get out of Regina the whereabouts of his father. I like how Regina reveals that Greg's father is dead. She so weary, messed up, and crying by now and I'm pretty sure what she says to Greg still isn't true. The girl has some strength! Poor Regina, she still gets another blow from Freaky boy though! Ugh! Who else wants to see Regina get some revenge on this guy sooo badly?! I DOOO!

Back in Victorian London Bae and the Darlings plan a way to keep The Shadow away but it ends up Bae gives his own self to The Shadow to save the Darlings. Can anyone else see why I love little Bae better than big Bae? So sweet, kind, innocent and caring. All the qualities I wish his father would show more of. He's got to have got that from somewhere and I don't believe it came from Milah. We get a Harry Potter broom stick like ride through London with Bae and the Shadow! Big Ben is set to 8:15. Oh, the symbolism. Off to Neverland Bae!

Gosh! Cool it Freaky Boy! Regina should be Loony Tunes by now with how many times Greg went to town with the sparkage! Grrrr! Yay! Prince Charming to the rescue! Make Freaky Boy run! Charming and Snow rescues Regina and Greg is out of there! You little coward! Snow wants to help Regina. Yes, lets do that! Please!

Bae Smoker gets a shock of his own that yes it IS his fiancee and Greg behind of this messed up craziness! Don't you love being betrayed Neal? Hehe! Now you can get back to Emma! Glorious cat fight ensues between Emma and Tomorrow! Really, it was quite good! In this corner Magical Emma Princess of Power and in this corner girl with a crazy name! Can't forget that Tomorrow shot Bae!Guess that's two up for her because she pulls out bean power and green magical toilet bowl dreams lie in store for Bae Smoker! Wooo boy! Looks like Emma may be the one to go again as she grabs hold of a pipe that is falling into the portal. Bae saves her and everything seems fine for a few seconds until the floorboards they're standing on break loose! Now we have a familiar scene. Someone holding onto Bae trying to stop him from leaving. Emma is afraid if he falls into the hole he'll die because he's shot. Like no one else will be there to help him in the other world, Emma? How do you know? They share their I Love Yous and Bae gord down the hole...again! Can't Emma ever get a break? Yeah, sure. A Kit Kat break!

Bae and Shadow boy arrives in Neverland but Bae is able to break free of the Shadow and falls in the sea. He is rescued by who else? None other than Captain Sparrow wannabe Hookie Babe! This will be interesting to see how THIS relationship goes! Back in Storybrooke a heartbroken Emma has a sweet moment with Daddy Charming and worries about how she is going to tell Henry about his father. Awwww. Greg is devestated about his father. Oh I see! See how all this has to do with fathers and sons this year? Bae and Henry, Gold and Bae, Gold and Henry, Greg and his dad, and Emma and Charming. Awwww. This year's finale should have ended on Father's Day not Mother's Day! The black diamond that Greg and Tomorrow stole from Regina is a trigger to blow up Storybrooke! Great another end of the world scenario on a tv series. Never seen that before! On to the season finale!
