They fought Pan in Neverland. They battled Flying Monkeys from Oz. Then last season they all descended into The Underworld. I am sure all the beloved residents of Storybrooke are ready to relax in their quiet town on the coast of Maine. Unfortunately this is not possible because Mr. Gold has made a deal. He has given Storybrooke to Mr. Hyde, the sinister other half of Dr. Jekyll. Hyde has also brought the population of an entire land with him. So many stories yet to be told! Read more...

The darkness has taken over and Emma is THE Dark One, but what was ‘The Price’ that was paid that made her turn? Angry and vengeful, there seems to be no hope for Emma as she has embraced the darkness. Hook’s attempt at true love’s kiss fails and even Henry can’t get through to her (although she does not blame him for what happened). It’s all fun and games for The Dark One as she warns of something coming that only a Savior can defeat. Will Regina now be the Savior they need? Will her powers be strong enough to defeat The Dark One? Read more...

What are the consequences of the villains getting their happy endings? The answer was illustrated beautifully in the season finale of Once Upon a Time last Spring. The Enchanted Forest was turned upside down. Regina was a Bandit trying to steal enough money to buy passage on a pirate ship. Rumpelstiltskin was the Savior of the realm. Snow was the Evil Queen who held Charming as her slave. In this reality no one knew the life they were leading was a lie. The musing of a demented Author. Read More...

ALERT! ALERT! ALERT! ‘Operation Mongoose’ is in full effect. Isaac, aka ‘The Author’, has finished his book, ‘Heroes & Villains’. Everything has been turned upside down. The heroes are villains and the villains are heroes. But, with Henry determined to get his family back, there is no stopping him from making things right except for Isaac. Henry transports himself to the Enchanted Forest where Isaac follows. Rumple is a beloved Ogre Slayer. Regina is a bandit on the run from the Evil Queen, Snow White. Prince Charming is just one of Snow White’s pawns. Hook is a cowardly deck hand and Lily is Snow’s minion standing guard at a fortress where Emma is trapped. Henry’s mission is to find Regina and give her a happy ending with Robin Hood but, once again, Zelena is in the way. When Henry rescues Emma, who still remembers everything, Regina begins to believe that she can set things right if she can stop Robin and Zelena’s wedding. Regina does not stop the wedding but instead saves Henry from Rumple. As she lay bleeding, Henry is drawn to Isaac’s quill and becomes the next Author where he saves Regina and sets everything back to the way it was. What will become of Henry in Season 5? Since he broke the quill, what power will the Author have now? How will the role of the Author change? Read more...
