Meanwhile, back in the fairytale land that was, on the eve of meeting Prince Charming’s mother, King George poisons Snow White, and the only antidote lies within the waters of the Lady of the Lake.From the inventive minds of Lost executive producers Adam Horowitz and Edward Kitsis comes a bold new imagining of the world, where fairy tales and the modern-day are about to collide. And they all lived happily ever after - or so everyone was led to believe. Emma Swan knows how to take care of herself. She's a 28-year-old bail bonds collector who's been on her own ever since she was abandoned as a baby. But when the son she gave up years ago finds her, everything starts to change. Henry is now 10 years old and in desperate need of Emma's help.
He believes that Emma actually comes from an alternate world and is Snow White and Prince Charming's missing daughter. According to his book of fairytales, they sent her away to protect her from the Evil Queen's curse, which trapped the fairytale world forever, frozen in time, and brought them into our modern world.
Of course Emma doesn't believe a word, but when she brings Henry back to Storybrooke, she finds herself drawn to this unusual boy and his strange New England town. Concerned for Henry, she decides to stay for a while, but she soon suspects that Storybrooke is more than it seems.
It's a place where magic has been forgotten, but is still powerfully close... where fairytale characters are alive, even though they don't remember who they once were. Emma will have to accept her destiny and fight for everything that once was.
There were a lot of emotional beats to hit in this episode, but the writers somehow found time for all of them without leaving the episode overcrowded. We had a touching, but complicated, Charming family reunion, a nuanced confrontation with Regina (Lana Parrilla) — we love that despite everything Emma (Jennifer Morrison) protected her, for Henry's (Jared Gilmore) sake, and because it was the decent thing to do — and good Rumbelle moments (that kiss! That apology!).
We thought this episode set up a number of interesting storylines in Storybrooke. There's Regina cut off from everyone, trying to win back Henry's love. There's Henry and David/Prince Charming (Josh Dallas) as a grandfather-grandson team. There's Belle (Emilie de Ravin) trying to save Mr. Gold/Rumplestiltskin (Robert Carlyle) from himself. There's the rest of the town wanting Regina's blood. There's the question of who Dr. Whale (David Anders) is.
And, of course, there's Emma and Mary Margaret/Snow White (Ginnifer Goodwin), sucked through the portal into what's left of Fairytale Land. They'll have plenty of opportunities to work through their feelings towards one another, whether they like it or not. And we can't wait!
We were also surprised by how much we enjoyed the Fairytale Land story with Mulan (Jamie Chung), Sleeping Beauty (Sarah Bolger), and Prince Phillip (Julian Morris). We were afraid we'd find the new characters distracting, but we liked how their story linked directly to what was happening in Storybrooke, and we're very interested to see the Mulan-Sleeping Beauty dynamic develop.
Which is good, since we'll probably see much more of them, now that they'll presumably be adventuring with Mary Margaret and Emma.
Great cast and a very promising pilot. It captures the essence of a classic fairy tale and incorporates it with a modern setting where the real and the imaginary merges.
To be sure, it does not have a dark atmosphere and if you're looking for one, this is not the show. But I think there are a lot of dark and gory shows out there, so this one looks fresh and deserves a try by anyone who likes fairy tales and fantasy.
The cast is great. It is clear that there is much effort in that section. I believe I watched Ginnifer Goodwin for the first time and I knew that Jennifer Morrison was in the show, so when I see Goodwin I though she was Morrison. This might be due to my ignorance about the actress, but given the story, the resemblance makes some sense. I don't know whether this is intentional though.
