2. Knightfall... Is Batman in this one? Did they find out his identity? Kudos to you if you know what I'm talking about ...added after... They should've included Batman.. That would've made this episode interesting
3. Riiiiight yeah... You're right... While "Rapunzel" was monologuing (is that how you spell that?) Regina and Zelena could've been halfway back to Storybrooke ...Yeah... Storybrooke... None of that Seattle shit
4. Sad to hear the cooler isn't doing it's job all too well.. I figured that might happen.. But it did seem like a bit of an impulse buy.. Perhaps next time it'd be a good idea to look into some information about stuff and not just go off of someones bad advice
5. Yeeeeaaahhh... You'd expect Wishrealm Hook to look old and big as FUCK. by now... But no.. Apparently he's been drinking from the well of life or some shit cause dude looks the same as he always has ...Well... As OUR Hook has... But Papaaa Hook doesn't look grey and fat AT. ALL. ....Weird
6. Holy shit yeah that sounded ADR'ed to all hell.. Like Robert Carlyle just phoned in that line
7. BISH! Sure... Bring on Moana ...But... I wanna see The Rock!! I recently saw Moana for the first time... Good movie!
8. Sooooo.. Rapunzel had a big office which clearly means she had money... And Dru has to clean this up all by herself??? Did she not inherit the money... She can't have this office cleaned up?
9. Eeehhhmmm... Is that the Big Friendly Giant???? Cause... We've seen giants before and they didn't look ANYTHING like that! ...added later... THAT'S A TROLL!?!? ...Aren't trolls supposed to be much smaller than giants?!
10. NO! ...We're not making this a thing Alice! ...First Zelena now you... Nicknaming priviledges provoked! ....Nobin?!?!... Are you fucking kidding me!?! NO.
11. You're wondering why Dru isn't British... I'm wondering why "Rapunzel" WASSS.... Was young "Rapunzel" British??? I don't remember
12. Yeah no it's not just you Froots... Whenever I leave the house I make sure to lock my door.. That trick Regina just pulled on him with the tape would NOT have worked on me
13. I honestly have NO idea what the fuck is going on here... Robin is leaving Alice behind in a cell.. Rude ....Zelena is getting mad at Regina cause she's on a Tinder date or something... Previously.. On lost.
14. When the FUCK. did Emma's car become Herbie!?!?
15. Yeeeeahh.. Very much agreed... This Alice is MUCH more likeable than the one from Wonderland ...Also waaay cuter
16. I dunno.... The people on this show are really dodgey with their accents.. You'd think the kids and the parents would have the same accents ...But no.. Not on this show

Interestingly, the name "Anastasia", which comes from the Disney film Cinderella, means "resurrection", which is exactly what happens to the character in the episode "One Little Tear".
When Victoria finds out about Jacinda and Sabine's pop-up beignet shop, she calls an unseen character named Ralph and tells him to "wreck it", a reference to the film Wreck-It Ralph.
The name "Lucy" is of English origin and is derived from Latin lux, meaning "light". This is a reference to the Final Battle of light versus darkness, which is fought in the episode where Lucy first appears.
Her name is also similar to Lucifer, Lady Tremaine's cat in the Disney film Cinderella. On Once Upon a Time, Lady Tremaine is Lucy's step-grandmother.

also some name decodings
kelly west- kelly is a shade of green also zelena considered it as a baby name for robin, west is self explanatory, zelena's the wicked witch
The name "Tilly" is a reference to Tillie, one of the three sisters in the story that the Dormouse tells Alice at the mad tea party in Alice's Adventures in Wonderland. Tillie, Elsie and Lacie live at the bottom of the Treacle Well. The names of the three sisters refer to the names of Alice Liddell and her sisters. Tillie is short for "Matilda", a name given to Edith Liddell by her sisters. Alice Liddell inspired Lewis Carol's Alice. The missing girl Rogers is looking for and feels a familial bond with is named Eloise Gardener. The name Tilly is a clue to her being Rogers' and Eloise's daughter: To "till" means to prepare and cultivate land for crops, which is what people do with a garden.
Tilly's favorite sandwich, orange marmalade, is a reference to the jar of orange marmalade Alice takes from a shelf as she falls down the well within the rabbit hole in the first chapter of Alice's Adventures in Wonderland.
also in a random bit of trivia, robin's actress is the older sister of grace/paige (mad hatter's daughter)'s actress
Ron/Reginai is named after Ronnie Spector of the the Ronettes, because the show creators love that name. Edward Kitsis explained they "wanted a name that was specific" and they thought "Roni" was "such a cool and fun name, and at the same time they could totally picture Lana with background singers".
The name "Ivy" is a reference to the ivy plant, which has to cling to something else, like trees or buildings, in order to survive; much like Drizella/Ivy does to her sister, then her mother, and then Eloise Gardener. Victoria makes a reference to this in "Eloise Gardener", where she compares Ivy to the plant and says that in order for it to grow, it has to cling to something else. It is also a reference to the color ivy green. In Disney's Cinderella, Ivy's original counterpart, Drizella, always wears clothes in the shade of green. The last name "Belfrey" is a reference to the word "belfry", which is part of a bell tower or steeple in which bells are housed. Ivy's mother, Victoria Belfrey, is the CEO of Belfrey Towers, and her original counterpart was also locked up in a tower.

alice/robin backstory1 YES! also
easter eggs i noticed
Emma's One-Person Birthday Party from the pilot returns again, this time with Alice, all alone in her tower, at a tea party with her stuffed animals and other toys.
Emma's yellow VW appears again, or at least a magically-created version of it. The reason for this is because Robin told Alice the story of how she once broke into it and tried to steal it to run away — which is the same thing both Neal and Emma herself did with it, years ago.
Aside from the bit mentioned above about the stolen VW, there's Robin's relationship with Alice. Even though she's only a Charming by marriage (via her aunt's adoption of Henry and marriage to Leopold), Robin still continues the family tradition of catching her future true love in a trap (a cage this time, not a net). Alice, meanwhile, persists in using a nickname her true love greatly resents. And also like Charming with Snow, Robin starts off as working against her true love if not actively disliking and thinking the worst of her, before eventually coming to her defense and fighting by her side. There's even still a troll involved, albeit in very different circumstances and personality in the end.
At her tea party birthday, she sings a snatch of "A Very Merry Unbirthday" from Disney's animated Alice in Wonderland.
She also mentions to Robin (and it's shown onscreen at the tea party) that she spent time "talking to a hat", though whether she has also met her Wonderland's version of the Hatter has not been revealed.
While Alice isn't Rapunzel herself, she takes on elements of the story, particularly as the daughter and prisoner of Mother Gothel. In the original Rapunzel story, Rapunzel's prince ends up being blinded when the witch discovers their meetings. When we meet the cursed form of Robin, she's wearing something the original didn't: glasses.
When Alice's wish brings the yellow VW to rescue her and Robin, she explains how she did it (something Robin rightly calls impossible) by noting she "thinks of at least six impossible things before breakfast every day", a near-quote of a famous line from the Lewis Carroll novel.
the madam leota sequence two eps ago was a tribute to disney's haunted mansion attraction at their parks
