I'm watching but I haven't watched the episode from last night yet. I like the show a lot, but the one I like even better for "soapy" goodness is Revenge.

Ahhhhh! I'm dying to talk about it, but I don't want to ruin it for anyone. Suffice to say, it's incredible.

I watched this week's episode last night DD and I understand why you couldn't wait to talk about it. It was an excellent episode but I didn't like how it ended. It did answer one of main questions though, I've been wondering if the mayor knows who she is and she does. Do you think kissing Emma is the key to each one remembering or if that just worked for Graham?

Kazz, that was what I was wondering about too. They've hinted around at it (like in her conversation with Mr. Gold about their 'deal' and him asking her 'which deal she was talking about'), but they've never outright showed that she knows about everyone's real identities. I didn't like how it ended either, but Graham's usefulness to the Mayor was very limited.

.... But Graham was useful to me - I liked the way he looked. Mr. Gold is another one I wonder about. It's hard to tell if he remembers or if he's just that sleazy by nature that he always seems like he's up to something. |

I don't see Mr. Gold being fooled or letting anyone else get the upper hand, not even the Mayor, so I've got a feeling he remembers plus I'm sure he knows how the curse can be undone and he's enjoying the show unfolding before him. What I want to know is did the Mayor get trapped in Storybrooke or is part of her revenge plan to be there to watch the misery of others? Doesn't seem like she's too happy if this was to make her happy and the others suffer.

From what I've read in interviews, the producers/writers want to make it absolutely clear that Regina (the mayor) DOES know about the curse. What's not so clear is who else knows (Mr. Gold/Rumple-however-you-spell-the-rest-of-that). Emma is the key to ending the curse, but we still don't know exactly how that will happen. I agree about Graham! He was too pretty to lose so quickly (sorry, spoiler alert). I loved the episode, but just hated how it ended. Of course, we might still get to see him in flashbacks (when they fill in more of Snow's story, for example) but it looks like he's pretty much gone for good.  Adios, mi amor. Tu es MUY CALIENTE!!!! |

In one of the flashback parts of the story, the queen's father warns her against going through with her revenge plot and tells her that by stripping others of their happiness it will steal any hope of her happiness as well. She was also warned by someone (I think it was the witch she took the spell back from) that she would get sucked into her own curse. So I don't think it was her plan to end up Storybrooke, I think it was her being swallowed by her own curse, but I thought that maybe part of being swallowed by the curse would also mean that she lost her memory too - turns out I was wrong about that part of the theory. Even though the mayor doesn't like Emma, I don't think she knows the prophecy about her or she wouldn't have just tried to make her leave, she would have already tried to kill her. I know that Henry and Emma burned the last pages of the book so maybe that is one piece of information the mayor won't know.
Two other things I want to know: 1) what secret of the Queen's did Snow White not keep that started all of this, and 2) does the mayor love Henry. Remember in the pilot episode, Emma tells Henry that her "superpower" is being able to tell if someone is lying, and then at the end of the episode she asks the mayor if she loves Henry and the mayor says yes. The look on Emma's face made me think that she knew the mayor was lying but then in the episode where Henry was in danger, it seemed like Emma and the Mayor came to an "understanding" of sorts and I got the impression then that maybe Emma knows the Mayor really does love him. Of course, the Queen "loved" her father (also named Henry) too but she still killed him.

I'm not entirely convinced that the mayor is capable of loving anyone other than herself (remind you of anyone we know?  *cough* EJ *cough*). It seems that her "love" of Henry is really just her desperate attempt to get someone, anyone, to love her back. But I can't wait to see how everything develops. It's just so fascinating!!! |

I agree DD and that's why I put "love" in quotes. I don't think the Queen/Mayor is capable of love either.
