2022-11-14 19:19:07 +0000 UTCi really enjoyed this episode! i think itβs the storyline they gave got hell was well done, and makes her character make sense. i feel like a few other characters we have seen didnβt get a good background story, so iβm glad she did!

2022-11-14 02:16:10 +0000 UTCI really love this episode. I like the idea that she was a Tree Nymph, it makes a lot of sense for all of Gothels. Faciller cured Henry with the slipper. that's what that glass going into him was. Love the Carrie elements in this.

2022-11-09 05:24:31 +0000 UTCEven if Henry and Ella's kiss had broken the curse, he wouldn't have died. The whole thing that Samdi was doing with the slipper and the voodoo doll was removing the poison from Henry's heart. When all those remnants of the slipper floated into Henry's chest, his curse was lifted. The reason why the curse didn't break, as you now know, is because it was destined for another kiss of true love to be the kiss needed to break the curse. Definitely do the final two episodes on the same day. They're needed to be seen back to back.

2022-11-08 23:54:11 +0000 UTCregarding henry not dying- the scene where facilier used the shoe with the voodoo doll, that healed henry. the glass went tot his heart and healed him so its safe for the curse to be broken now, however the kiss did not work. they get more into that next episode. another great episode! hope we get another tonight! thank you!

2022-11-08 20:53:58 +0000 UTCi was watching this while i was driving, so iβll comment on the episode in a seperate comment later! as for the schedule, i totally think you should do the 2 and 2. one, iβm super excited lol and two, youβre definitely going to want to watch the last episode after seeing the second to last one. they go together really well! but if you want to see comments and stuff, itβs probably best to post one early in the morning and watch the other one later in the day so you can get a long time for comments to roll in before watching the last episode!

2022-11-08 20:50:38 +0000 UTCFlower Child- Fabulous!! Thank you so very much for such a marvelous reaction to one of my absolute favorite episodes of Once Upon a Time, Jessie!! And not just from this season, but throughout this show in its entirety. Just as I feel about each of these final four episodes!! I absolutely love, love, love them!! And I loved watching your reaction for this episode, and I'm so happy you really love this episode too! :) So, going into watching this episode for the very first time, I was really excited to watch it because from the promo for it back when this episode aired live on TV, I knew this episode would be mostly centered around Rogers and Tilly, as well as Mother Gothel too. And I'm so happy to say that this episode certainly didnβt disappointment me. I told you... These final four episodes of Once Upon a Time are absolutely phenomenal, and I am so happy you loved Flower Child so much! :) First, I will start with what little I didn't like about this episode... I don't care too much for Gothel's reasons for becoming so evil. Don't get me wrong... It is absolutely tragic what happened to her family, whom... I have to say, I was completely and pleasantly surprised that she and her family are tree nymphs. I didn't see this twist in Gothel's backstory coming at all, and it is brilliant. And her backstory brilliantly told. But back to my dislike... Of course, it's tragic that her family are killed, and I understand why she quickly rose up to deeply hate all those responsible for killing them, as well as each of those who bullied her. But people every day are being bullied by others, and even the cruelty of a few is no reason to hate all of humanity. Gothel most certainly takes her hatred of these few humans responsible, and takes her hatred of them to the extreme. However, with this being said, and to be fair to the fantasy that is Once Upon a Time... I do understand why Gothel goes all evil and kills all those at the party, despite some of them being innocent. But to hate all of humanity for it is just a bit too extreme. And now she wants to purge the Earth of all humans. So not good. I suppose that for me... Gothel's backstory and her reasoning for doing all she's doing, isn't so much of a dislike, but more of a very minor nitpick really. Because overall... I really do quite love Gothel's overall backstory. I love that she's a tree nymph, and how she comes to see herself as Mother of all and mother of all magic... Mother Gothel. As for the present storyline... I have a couple of minor pet peeves. I don't care much about Gothel casting a mind spell over the desk Sergeant, and her using him to help her do her bidding. To me... It seems out of place to me for him to even be involved in this episode at all. I've always felt that his character has been out of place, given that he isn't one of our fairytale characters brought over to Hyperion Heights in Gothel's curse. But with this being said once again... I love that Mother Gothel's powers are slowly growing as the events occur throughout these final episodes. I just can't help but wonder why hasn't she been shown to use these powers before in order to get everyone to do whatever she asks of them, or possibly to make anyone forget whatever she might need them to forget? Seems like a very helpful power. Also... To me, the brief moment between Gothel and Margot is kind of boring too, and I just don't care much for it at all. I understand that Gothel needs Margot's blood because she is Tilly's new love, and that Gothel needs blood from her daughter's new love... along with some old blood, which she gets from Rogers/Wish Hook because he's Alice's father and their bond has been strong all along even without their memories... which I absolutely love. My last two very minor disappointments of this episode, which aren't really real disappoints... are that neither Regina nor Weaver were in this episode. But I understand why their characters aren't necessary to this episode, and it's a tiny detail I can easily overlook. It's just sad that they're not in this episode, given that it is the last of four within the entire show, and therefore them being missing feels unfair to their characters. Now, onto what I like, and what I absolutely love about this episode... I actually quite like the small storyline between Lucy and Facilier, even despite my disappointments with his character not turning out to be as villainous as I expected of him to be, and hoped he would become in the second half of this season. And strangely enough, I do feel he is actually genuine in wanting to help Regina and Lucy to cure Henry, which really quite surprises me. He may have other reasons for doing certain things that aren't so good. But at least he wants the curse to be broken as much as everyone else. And now... he has finally cured Henry!!! I was super excited by this, and like how he uses the pieces of Ella's glass slipper to do it. An item that symbolizes Henry's and Ella's love for one another. Although, I do find it a bit strange that Jacinda has mysteriously had the rest of the glass slipper all along, but... oh well. I also quite like the friendship, or bonding between Gothel and Seraphina, the first young woman and witch to join Gothel's coven. I like and really appreciate how this episode reveals at least one of the witches' backstories within the coven. Sadly, there aren't enough episodes left to find out who the rest of them are, but... c'est la vie. But even more so... I am actually beyond happy that True Love's Kiss between Henry and Jacinda/Ella didn't actually work to break the curse, like this season has led us to believe all along. Only because I thought their kiss of True Love was far too obvious and cliche. And I just quite feel the chemistry between their characters and their actors either. So, I've always wanted this curse to be broken in a different way. And now... I was definitely excited for what's to come, and boy is all to come so exciting!!! The answers to all of your questions, including why the curse isn't yet broken, will soon be answered. Just you wait, Jessie! :) And now, as for what all I absolutely love about this episode.... I love, love, love the overall story arc between Rogers and Tilly most of all, of course! In each of these final episodes. Their moments together before they are kidnapped are really sweet and beautiful. And I absolutely love that it is finally revealed to them both that they are father and daughter, and most of all that they both have now come to believe and feel that it's true. Of course, Tilly knows that Gothel is her mother too, and comes to believe this is so rather quickly too, which is so good. And it is so satisfying to see Tilly reject her when Gothel tries to be a "mother" to Tilly, who sees right through her lies. :) Finally... I absolutely love, love, love Rogers' and Tilly's abduction, and the entire storyline of the coven, as they force Tilly to become one of them by threatening Rogers, as she fights to protect her father. And I love how Rogers pleads with Tilly not to do as Gothel wants of her as any good and loving father would for the sake of his child, and yet I love that Tilly can't let her mother kill him either. I love, love, love their relationship, and truly being able to see the belief that they are father and daughter within their eyes and facial expressions throughout this season... all thanks to Colin O'Donoghue and Rose Reynolds both being such incredible actors. You can see that they truly do love one another, and that they feel they are father and daughter. Oh... and I absolutely love Gothel's line to Tilly about her having been born from both sides of the looking glass. Both from hers and from her father's, as Mother Gothel is magical, whereas Wish Hook is just human. These words are poetically and beautifully spoken. Such good writing in this episode!! And lastly... We learn that Mother Gothel had not only once wiped out all of humanity through her magic, but we also learn that she is in fact... the oldest character throughout all of Once Upon a Time that we meet, as we learn that the events shown through Gothel's backstory all occurred thousands of years earlier. It's revealed that Mother Gothel is a tree nymph and that their existence is eternal. And this is amazing! Up until now, we've believed few other characters such as Rumple, Pan, the Black Fairy, as well as the Blue Fairy to be the oldest characters. Nope! Not even close. Mother Gothel and Serphina are the oldest, along with the rest of the sisters within their coven. Thank you so much for another phenomenal and fun reaction for Once Upon a Time, Jessie!!! I loved watching this reaction from you, and I am so happy you have come to love this episode too!! And now... I am so excited!!! I can't wait for your reactions for the final three episodes!!!! And yes... you will absolutely love them!!!! Sincerely, Heidi
