Last time on OUAT Season 1: It was a Ruby/Red centric
episode! After a fight with Granny, Ruby quitted her job and moved out. She
ended up staying with Mary Margaret and Emma. After witnessing Ruby answering
the phones at the station, Emma decided to give her a job and let her help with
the Kathryn Nolan case. Ruby was able to find an unconscious David, who Whale
believed was having blackouts related to his coma, and then she located a box
buried in the woods with truly horrifying contents. It made her re-evaluate her
life and she returned to the diner, where Granny admitted she was harder on Ruby
because she planned on turning the diner over to her one day. They then hugged
it out.
In the Enchanted Forest, Red Riding Hood was chafing
under her grandmother’s restrictions. She had fallen in love with her childhood
friend, Peter, but Granny disapproved. And with a bloodthirsty wolf on the
prowl, Granny refused to let her out often.
Red found Snow rifling through their henhouse and the two
became fast friends. She confided about her feelings for Peter and then enlisted
Snow to help her kill the wolf. As they tracked it, they determined the wolf was
also human…and was Peter. So Red told him and offered to chain him up so he
wouldn’t hurt anyone that night. Then they would run away together. It was a
good plan except for one problem…
Peter wasn’t the wolf. Red was.
Granny and Snow arrived too late to save Peter but Snow
took Red, running away with her to save her from the mob.
Emma informed David and Mary Margaret about what was in
the box—a heart they believe to be Kathryn’s. David collapsed in shock that he
could do something. Emma, though, said that the prints didn’t come back to
him—they came back to Mary Margaret.
dun dun DUN!
We open in the Enchanted Forest. King George’s army
chases Red and Charming as they ride across the snow covered fields. As they
close in, Red decides to send Charming on ahead while she holds them off. She
tells him to find Snow as she glances at the full moon over head. Red takes off
her cape and charges at the soldiers, wolfing out.

Last time on Once Upon a Time’s first season: Kathryn
told David that she had been accepted into law school in Boston. After talking
with Mary Margaret, he agreed he was going to tell Kathryn about them and that
he couldn’t go to Boston. He did tell her the latter but omitted the former.
Regina told Kathryn about the affair, leading her to confront Mary Margaret in
the school hallway. Mary Margaret was heartbroken to learn David lied to her and
that she was now the town harlot. She decided to break it off with David.
Emma learned the name of the mysterious stranger—August.
He invited her out for that drink, taking her to the wishing well. However, he
didn’t tell her he took the storybook and did something weird with it. He let
her find it in a storm drain and she returned it to Henry, both excited.
In the past, Charming made a break for it ahead of his
marriage to Princess Couldn’t Care Less. George’s soldiers pursued but Charming
got an assist from an unlikely ally—Princess Couldn’t Care Less herself! She
revealed she was in love with one of her father’s soldiers, Frederick, but he
was turned to gold while saving Midas. There was a way to turn him back and she
asked Charming to go get water from Lake Nostos.
Charming did so, facing down a nymph along the way. She
transformed herself into Snow White to trap him but he was able to fight back,
saving himself from the fate that had befallen others who had tried to get the
water. He returned with the water, allowing Abigail to free Frederick. They were
reunited and Abigail wished Charming luck in finding Snow.
He found Red instead and the two rode away from King
George’s army in hopes of finding Snow.
Kathryn decided to give David and Mary Margaret her
blessing and left Storybrooke. Regina stole the letter she wrote David, though,
and burned it.
At the same time, the gym teacher found Kathryn’s car off
the road…and abandoned.
Uh oh.
We open above the clouds. The Blue Fairy sits there and
watches as a fairy in pink crash lands on one of the clouds. She holds up a bag
before popping up to reveal everyone’s favorite adorably quirky actress—Amy
Acker! She’s playing Nova, who is a fairy who longs to be a fairy godmother.
Blue laughs at this dream and says she needs to master delivering the fairy
dust, their most precious commodity, before she can do anything else.
Disappointed, Nova follows Blue as some fairy dust falls out of the bag and
dances on the wind.

The camera zooms down below ground where a dwarf says a
giant egg is about to hatch. Another dwarf doesn’t believe so, saying that the
whole group isn’t due to hatch until that night. But the first dwarf says that
one must be impatient.
As they watch, the egg is broken up. Leroy leans out, his
beard long and his expression wide-eyed. He’s also smiling as he takes in his
new world. The other two dwarfs welcome him to it.
