00:16Previously on Once Upon a Time...
00:18The curse, it's broken.
00:19It appears so.
00:20Then why are we still here?
00:21The Dark One summons thee.
00:24The hell was that?
00:25In your land, you would call it a wraith.
00:26If it can't be killed, what do you suggest?
00:28It will open a portal to our land.
00:31All we have to do is send the wraith in there.
00:33It's coming!
00:34Rekina!
00:37No!
00:38No!
00:41Mulan, what is that?
00:42That is what brought the wraith here.
00:44That's what killed our prince.
00:48This gentleman is our mission.
00:50The great barrier of our existence.
00:53Does it remain?
00:55We must investigate the line.
01:00I made straws.
01:01Short one crosses.
01:02Draw.
01:04With the curse broken, we can cross, right?
01:06Should be no problem.
01:08Okay?
01:09If we snatch it back, it could be more snow.
01:11Like, vaporize us.
01:14Let's go home.
01:15Guys!
01:17We are the royal guard.
01:20Dwarves loyal to Snow White.
01:21This is our chance to prove ourselves to the prince.
01:23We must do this.
01:25We must do this.
01:26Show your hands.
01:33You're up, snotty.
01:44You know, what if we found a turtle that sort of nudged it over first?
01:47Oh, for the love.
01:53Sneezy, are you okay?
01:57Sneezy!
01:58Sneezy!
01:58Sneezy!
01:58Sneezy!
02:02Sneezy!
02:03Sneezy!
02:05Sneezy!
02:06Sneezy!
02:06Sneezy!
02:06Sneezy!
02:07Sneezy!
02:07Sneezy!
02:08Sneezy!
02:08Sneezy!
02:09Sneezy!
02:09Sneezy!
02:11Sneezy! Sneezy!
02:45My boy.
02:47My poor boy.
02:49If you are looking for a family member,
02:51come to the front table.
02:52If you need counseling, Dr. Hopper has a sign-up sheet.
02:56If the wraith damage your house, there are cots at the school.
03:01This is getting out of hand.
03:02People are in a panic.
03:03They don't know what to do.
03:04It's OK. It'll be fine.
03:05We just need everyone to remain calm.
03:08I have a feeling our prince is working on something right now.
03:15Tell me about this.
03:19Surprised you don't have armed guards around the clock.
03:21Don't need them.
03:22We both know if you step outside,
03:24there's a line a mile long for your head.
03:28Who's going to risk coming at me?
03:31Take your chances, then.
03:33I think that little wallpaper trick was an anomaly.
03:38If you had your abilities back, this town would be charcoal by now.
03:41You're having problems with magic, are you?
03:45Right now, the only thing keeping you alive
03:48is that Henry wishes it.
03:53Now this.
03:55It's the hat that pulled your loved ones away.
03:59Well, where did you get it?
04:01I've long since forgotten.
04:03You know what?
04:05Maybe you should be less concerned with hats
04:07and more concerned with taking care of my son.
04:10Oh, because you took such great care of him.
04:13I will not listen to childcare lectures from a man
04:15who put his daughter in a box and shipped her to Maine.
04:20OK, listen.
04:21I need my family.
04:22There's magic here now.
04:24There have to be ways to follow them.
04:25Follow them where?
04:26Into a sucking airless void?
04:28And good luck getting magic to work.
04:30Because as you said, you'd be charcoal.
04:33Frustrated, aren't we?
04:35Serves you right.
04:36You earned every bit of this.
04:38Keep on baiting me, Charming.
04:40Right now, I don't have magic and I don't have my son.
04:43But when I get one, I get the other.
04:46And you don't want to be around when that happens.
04:50If you have to use magic to keep your son,
04:53you don't really have him.
05:11Come on, Rossi.
05:13Down there, go!
05:14We're almost free!
05:23Come on, Rossi.
05:24And I thought we were done with all this nonsense.
05:29Hello, Mother.
05:31What evil have you conjured?
05:34Not evil, darling.
05:35A barrier spell.
05:42Designed to keep you where you belong.
05:46I can't leave.
05:47Not alone, not without the king.
05:50We've been through this.
05:52In two days, you'll be married.
05:55You'll be queen.
05:56After that, you're free to go.
05:58Whenever you're with him.
06:00Mama, I don't want to marry the king.
06:03I don't want this life!
06:05You're just frightened of having all that power.
06:07I don't want power!
06:12I want to be free.
06:16Power is freedom.
06:21Don't worry.
06:23I'm here to show you.
06:31Henry!
06:33Have you seen Blue, Mother Superior?
06:35No, but everyone is looking for you.
06:37Do we know where Mr. Gold is?
06:39Wait.
06:40Does the queen still have power?
06:41I thought I would find my boy.
06:42He's got to be playing something!
06:43Let me ask you something.
06:44Are the nuns still nuns?
06:46Or can they, you know, date?
06:47I don't know.
06:48Blue!
06:48Don't say it's me asking.
06:50Could there be a tree on this side?
06:52The way we sent Emma through as a baby.
06:53Maybe I could go after him that way.
06:55It's possible, but without fairy dust to guide us here,
06:58I...
06:58No, it's hopeless.
07:00You'll find another way.
07:02In the book, things always look worse
07:04right before there's good news.
07:06Terrible news!
07:08Terrible news!
07:08Terrible news!
07:09We were out at the town limits.
07:11Tell them who you think you are, Sneezy!
07:13Will you stop calling me that?
07:14You know who I am.
07:14I'm Tom Clark.
07:15I owe the Dark Star pharmacy.
07:16What's going on here?
07:17If you cross the border,
07:19you lose your memory all over again.
07:21And coming back doesn't fix it.
07:22If it did, would I have come running in yelling terrible news?
07:25If we leave, our cursed selves become our only selves.
07:28Are you sure?
07:38We did.
07:39I'm not sure if I fit.
07:48I can help!
07:50You don't need to leave us here!
07:51Don't leave us here!
07:51You're right here!
07:52Let's go!
07:57Let's go!
07:58and to fix everything.
08:03What's the plan?
08:05I don't know.
08:07I've got two hours to figure it out.
08:13Come on.
08:19Light, damn you.
08:28I'm sorry.
08:37Regina.
08:40I thought you might want to talk.
08:42Oh, right, the conscience thing.
08:43It's what I do.
08:45I'm in no mood.
08:46It's too bad, because I think talking about your pain
08:51might be very helpful.
08:52Might help you learn who you truly are.
09:00Yes, I know who I am.
09:08What do you think, Snow?
09:10It looks beautiful.
09:14No, dear.
09:15You look beautiful.
09:26What's this?
09:27What?
09:29That's mine.
09:32It's pretty.
09:35Where did you get it?
09:40Daniel gave it to me.
09:43The stable boy.
09:47The one who left you.
09:50He didn't leave me.
09:54What?
09:55He was killed.
09:58Oh, no.
10:00He was killed because you couldn't keep a secret from my mother.
10:07But...
10:09But she said...
10:11She told me she was going to help you.
10:14My mother corrupts young souls.
10:19If you were stronger, none of this would have happened.
10:24If you were stronger, none of this would have happened.
10:27It's pretty.
10:34I don't remember.
10:35I don't remember.
10:37Daddy, you don't know what mother's doing to me.
10:41I don't remember.
10:41It's like she's turning me into her.
10:44I have to get away.
10:45Get away?
10:46But tomorrow's the wedding, child.
10:48I don't want to marry the king.
10:50I've told you that.
10:51Are you certain it isn't just cold feet?
10:53This is not cold feet.
10:55This, this is...
10:56This is insanity.
10:58I'm angry all the time.
11:00She's making me crazy.
11:02She wants to give you everything she never got for herself.
11:05I don't want her life.
11:08I want a life of my own.
11:14How did she get like this?
11:19That was Matt.
11:22Well, not quite a man.
11:25Someone Cora knew before I met her.
11:28He brought magic to her.
11:30Gave her that book of spells.
11:33He made her like she is.
11:36What was his name?
11:37I don't know.
11:40Cora won't even say it.
11:45But the book is his.
12:01The library's beneath the clock tower.
12:05You closed it, remember?
12:07When you still had power.
12:11I need the book.
12:12I need the book.
12:13I need to get my son back.
12:14Which book?
12:15Oh!
12:17So it's come down to that, eh?
12:19You need your mommy's help.
12:21Give me the book.
12:22Do you really need the smell of the written word to get the magic flowing again, love?
12:27Maybe if you're relaxed, it would just happen.
12:29I don't have time.
12:31It worked once.
12:33I know I can do it.
12:33I just...
12:34I just need a shortcut back.
12:36Yeah, well, I don't have time, either.
12:39Leave.
12:42Please.
12:46Well.
12:48How about that?
12:51Your pleases have lost their punch.
12:55Well, the fact remains.
12:57Jump-starting your magic is not in my best interests.
13:00You know what else isn't in your best interest?
13:03Having everyone know the Enchanted Forest still exists.
13:07Knowing that you and I are keeping that little secret.
13:11You're up to something.
13:15And it doesn't involve going back home.
13:25Careful, dearie.
13:28These are straight up spells.
13:30Roughing the system.
13:33I don't care if they turn me green.
13:36I'm getting my son back.
13:39Oh, my.
13:41What?
13:42It's just holding that.
13:44I told you once she didn't look like her, but now...
13:49Now I can see it.
14:24I can see it.
14:25That's not how you said, dear Ada.
14:29But then, you didn't have to say anything.
14:34What are you?
14:35What, what, what, my, my, what a rude question.
14:38I am not a what.
14:42Sorry, I don't really know what I'm doing.
14:44That much is clear.
14:46Allow me to introduce myself.
14:50Rumpelstiltskin.
14:52And I'm...
14:53Regina, I know.
14:54You do?
14:55But of course.
14:57Because of my mother, Cora.
14:59You taught her?
15:01My legend precedes me.
15:03People say I looked like her when she was younger.
15:05Really?
15:09I don't see it.
15:11Now, that's not how I know you.
15:15Well, how then?
15:17I knew you long ago, dearie.
15:21It's been some time.
15:23But I knew this day would come.
15:27I've been waiting for it.
15:30And I'm so happy we are back where we belong.
15:37Where's that?
15:40Together.
15:56People of Storybrooke, I know we're trapped again and things look bleak, but they're not.
16:04You, keep going.
16:06You were on to something.
16:07No, I wasn't.
16:09I did the fighting.
16:10Snow did the talking.
16:16Can I see that?
16:18Yeah.
16:20I think I know what this is.
16:27It's the Mad Hatter's hat.
16:30It's a portal between worlds.
16:31Mad Hatter?
16:32You've heard of him?
16:34No.
16:35I mean, yeah.
16:36I mean, the prince of me doesn't know me, but David had memories of reading Alice in Wonderland in school.
16:41I need to get it to work again.
16:43Who is he?
16:43I mean, who is he here?
16:45I don't know.
16:46Maybe he'll check in at the crisis center.
16:49You can check after the thing.
16:51What thing?
16:52The meeting where you tell us all your plan?
16:55Remember the speech you were doing?
16:57Right.
16:59I'll be back with that.
17:01Gramps, you gotta use me.
17:03Come on.
17:04The curse was broken because of me.
17:06Let me help.
17:08Or not.
17:18It appears when I bought that clothes sign, I was just throwing my money away.
17:23Looks like it.
17:27Sorry to hear about your wife and daughter.
17:30If you're looking for a retrieval, I'm afraid portal jumping is just outside my purview.
17:34Of course it is.
17:37So what's the commotion outside?
17:39A little stir at the border.
17:41A problem crossing the line.
17:44Do tell.
17:45Actually, I'm here to buy something.
17:47A way to find someone.
17:49What, like a map?
17:50Something with a bit more kick.
17:52Like the ring you gave me to find snow.
17:55Oh, yeah, magic.
17:58Whom are you following?
18:00Not telling.
18:02So do you have something of theirs, this missing person?
18:05Yes.
18:06May I see it?
18:07No.
18:08No.
18:19Pour this on the object, and then follow it.
18:23So simple, even David Nolan can do it.
18:28What do you want?
18:30Peace.
18:32Leave me alone.
18:34What do you care what David Nolan does?
18:36No, no.
18:37It's charming I worry about.
18:39I'd like a little non-interference guarantee.
18:43Fine.
18:43If you give me the same, you and I, we stay out of each other's way.
18:52Thank you for your business.
18:58So what happens when you try and cross the border?
19:03You lose your memory of everything of our old lives.
19:09Looks like we're stuck here.
19:36Oh, yes.
19:37I know everything about you, my dear.
19:41I held you in my arms.
19:44You were younger.
19:47More...
19:48portable.
19:50There is much history between your family and me.
19:53History both in the past and in the future.
19:57Then can you help me?
19:58Possibly, yeah.
20:00You seek power.
20:02The death of your enemy.
20:05The death of your friend.
20:06No.
20:07I don't want to hurt anyone.
20:09Hard to believe you're from the same family.
20:13So kind.
20:16So gentle.
20:20So...
20:24Powerful.
20:26You could do so much
20:28if you just let yourself.
20:34I don't know how.
20:39Let me show you the way.
20:46How did...
20:46Magic.
20:47It can set you free.
20:49I don't want to do that.
20:52I don't want to do that.
20:52Use magic.
20:53That's what she does.
20:54I don't want to end up like her.
20:56No, no, of course not.
20:58But that's the beauty of my gift.
21:01You don't have to.
21:03It will do it for you.
21:07I don't want to do it for you.
21:07What is it?
21:09A portal.
21:11A passage between lands.
21:14This is a portal to a specific, annoying little world.
21:18Useless to me.
21:19But for your purposes, a perfect.
21:23You're unlikely ever to see her again.
21:31All she needs is a little push.
21:34The question is, can you do it?
21:38No, no, no, no, no, no.
22:12No, no, no, no.
23:14Oh, thank you.
23:16No one heard me.
23:18You okay?
23:19Good.
23:20That means we can talk.
23:25Come on, Gramps.
23:26Pick up.
23:27Come on.
23:28Please, everyone just be patient.
23:30I'm sure he's gonna be here any second.
23:33Granny, do you really need that?
23:34We got a lawless town.
23:35We'll be damn right I need it.
23:39Try calling him again.
23:40He's not picking up.
23:41Just keep trying.
23:49My, what a nice turnout.
23:55No need for a fuss.
23:57It's just little old me.
24:01Regina, think about what you're doing.
24:03Bug.
24:06Look.
24:15How sweet.
24:21What do you want?
24:27Me.
24:30She wants me.
24:32She wants me.
24:34Okay?
24:35I'll come with you.
24:36Just leave them alone.
24:47That's my boy.
25:10No.
25:10Can you get me through?
25:12No.
25:13Can you get them back?
25:15Can you get it to work?
25:20If you only knew.
25:22Okay.
25:22You had a little girl's tea set in your car and a stuffed rabbit toy.
25:25So I'm thinking you have a daughter you love.
25:27Well, I do too.
25:28And a wife.
25:29And they're out there somewhere.
25:30In the enchanted forest or a void.
25:32I don't even know.
25:33But I'm going to get them back.
25:34They're in the enchanted forest.
25:35That's for sure.
25:36I just can't get there.
25:37It still exists?
25:38It exists.
25:39I don't know if that matters since we can't go there.
25:41So you won't help me?
25:42I'm a portal jumper.
25:44I need to destroy my portal so you're out of luck.
25:47Well, I'm the closest thing left to a sheriff here so I can just throw you in a cell until
25:50you figure out a way.
25:52Then all we'll do is both sit.
25:55Stuck.
25:57Two lives in our heads, cursed worse than ever.
26:02Two lives forever at odds.
26:06Double the pain.
26:09Double the suffering.
26:14David, stop!
26:15Get out of my way!
26:16She has Henry!
26:17But he has the way!
26:18She has Henry!
26:19She's threatening everyone!
26:22She has Henry?
26:23She showed up at your town meeting, the one you missed.
26:26Her magic's back.
26:27Everyone's panicking.
26:28They want to leave town.
26:29They're going to lose everything.
26:31Okay.
26:31Okay.
26:32But I have to go after him first.
26:33He's my only hope of finding a way to get Emma and Snow back.
26:36Back to what?
26:38This town is about to come apart.
26:40You've got to do something.
26:48Now, I don't want you to think that things are just going to go back to how they used to
26:52be.
26:56Henry!
27:02Ooh!
27:07Hold on!
27:15Hey!
27:28Don't fight it, honey.
27:31You'll get a splinter.
27:35How long am I in prison?
27:37Till I grow up?
27:40Henry, I rescued you because I love you.
27:43So I'm a prisoner because you love me.
27:45That's not fair.
27:47You know where I come from?
27:48That was really not fair.
27:51Of all the places I've seen, this is the fairest of them all.
27:54You ruined lives.
27:56You sent away Mary, Margaret, and Emma.
27:58That was an accident.
27:59The way you treated me wasn't an accident.
28:02You made it so no one believed me.
28:04You made me feel like I was crazy.
28:07But that's all going to change now.
28:10Henry, you can know all the secrets.
28:12You can live in a house with magic.
28:16Look what I could do.
28:21And I can teach you.
28:23You can do this and so much more.
28:26You can have all the friends you want come over anytime, and you can show them everything in your book.
28:32No one's going to want to come over here.
28:34They're scared of you.
28:36You can make them not be scared.
28:42You can make them love you.
28:44I don't want that.
28:47I don't want to be you.
29:00What's this?
29:05I don't know.
29:06A gift?
29:08Maybe it's a portrait.
29:11Oh, a looking glass.
29:13Not nearly as personal.
29:16I wonder sometimes if the people really love you.
29:21I'm doing my best, mother.
29:24Oh, honey, I'm sorry.
29:25Come here.
29:28Look at you with your whole life ahead of you.
29:31And it's going to be better than you can imagine.
29:38The king's not a strong man.
29:41The kingdom will be yours.
29:44Raise the tributes.
29:46Form a personal guard.
29:47Let everyone know where the new power lies, and you'll hold the hearts of your people in your hands.
30:01Is that what you would do, mother?
30:05That's exactly what I would do.
30:10Well, the thing is, I don't want to be you.
30:18What are you doing?
30:20You think it's that easy to get rid of me?
30:23You're stuck with me forever, darling.
30:25Because I'm your mother.
30:28And I know best.
30:37No!
30:39No!
31:04Get out of the way!
31:06We have a right to go!
31:07Listen to me!
31:08Listen!
31:16If you cross that line, you're going to be lost.
31:20Everyone who loves you will lose you.
31:22But there's something worse.
31:26You'll lose yourself.
31:30Look, I get wanting to leave here.
31:34I do.
31:35And I get that it's easier to let go of bad memories, but even bad memories are part of us.
31:44David, Storybrooke David, was, is, weak, confused, and he hurt the woman I love.
31:57I wouldn't give up being charming just to be him.
32:00But you know what?
32:02I wouldn't make the other trade either.
32:06Because that David reminds me not only of whom I lost,
32:13but of who I want to be.
32:17My weaknesses and my strengths.
32:19David and the prince.
32:21I am both.
32:24Just like you.
32:26You are both.
32:29The town is both.
32:32We are both.
32:35Stay here and every choice is open to you.
32:39Live in the woods if you want.
32:40Hell, live in a shoe if you want.
32:43Or eat frozen burritos and write software.
32:47Let's open, grannies, and the school, and get back to work.
32:54I will protect you.
32:58She won't be able to hurt any of us, not as long as I'm alive.
33:04Not as long as we all come together as we did before.
33:13As we shall do again.
33:25Amen.
33:27Amen.
33:29Amen.
33:54Leaving, are we?
33:58That was always the plan.
34:05Here, a gift.
34:07I don't want it.
34:09Uh, can't be a gift.
34:10It was mine to start with.
34:13Before you go, answer me this.
34:20How did it feel?
34:23I love my mother.
34:24But that's not what I asked, dearie.
34:27How did it feel?
34:30Use magic.
34:33It doesn't matter.
34:34I'll never use it again.
34:36Why not?
34:40Because I loved it.
34:46You've discovered who you are.
34:49You could do so much now, if you let me show you how.
35:00Through magic.
35:02Through many things.
35:07And what do you get out of it?
35:12Someday, you'll do something for me.
35:17Let me guide you.
35:25And I won't become like her.
35:29That, dearie, is entirely up to you.
35:43I want to see him.
35:53Henry, come down.
35:56You won't be using your sword.
35:58Whatever you conjure, I can fight.
36:01I mean you won't need your sword.
36:17Henry, you're gonna go home with David.
36:24Really?
36:26Really?
36:27Really.
36:29I shouldn't have brought you here.
36:32I was...
36:36I don't know how to love very well.
36:40I wasn't capable of it for a very long time.
36:43But I know.
36:44I remember.
36:47That if you hold on to someone too hard,
36:51that doesn't make them love you.
36:56I'm sorry I lied to you.
36:59That it made you feel like I didn't know who you are.
37:03And I want you to be here because you want to be here.
37:05Not because I forced you.
37:10And not because of magic.
37:16I want to redeem myself.
37:22Go get your things.
37:28Then prove it.
37:32How?
37:33Answer one question.
37:35Does it exist?
37:37What?
37:38The Enchanted Forest.
37:40Our land.
37:41Does it still exist?
37:51Yes.
37:53But I have no idea how to get back there.
37:59I can see I just launched you on a heroic quest.
38:06Just also make sure you take care of my son.
38:11I can do it.
38:12I can do it.
38:21I can do it.
38:29I can do it.
38:30I can do it.
38:42You can do it.
38:43I can do it.
38:44I can do it.
38:47Bye.
38:48What?
38:48What do you need those for?
38:49Don't worry, brother.
38:50You've lost something.
38:51It's gonna take fairy dust to get it back.
38:54So we're gonna do what we do best.
38:57Come on, boys.
38:59It's off to work we go.
40:12Hey, it exists, Henry.
40:15The Enchanted Force is still out there.
40:19And so are they.
40:21Yeah.
40:23But how do we know they survived the trip there?
40:28Because I can feel it.
40:31I can feel it.
40:40I can feel it.
41:05What is this place?
41:08Our home.
41:17I can feel it.
41:25I can feel it.
41:37I can feel it.
41:39I can feel it.
41:56What did you do take them to the pit
42:10Be careful
42:11Be careful
42:13Come on, wake up
42:16Can you hear me?
42:18Do you need help?
42:22Who are you?
42:24A friend
42:34My name's Cora
43:11I can't tell you
43:13That's it
43:14I can't tell you
43:16To do the best
43:17To do this
