"Of Sweethearts Passing Through | Some Of Them Left No Trace At All | Some Left Her Black & Blue"

–I really enjoyed Charming punching Whale. Also, do you get the feel that David watched A LOT of Westerns?

-Charming would be/is such a great dad.

-I feel like costume departments really do not know what to do with Sebastian Stan. Photo shoots - yes. Costume and makeup? Not so much. (Hint: dress him up like a rent boy.)

-It makes me snort with amusement to think that Rumpelstiltskin and the Mad Hatter both met and took advantage of Regina when she was young and naive and she later fucked them both over. Currently, I am SO glad that Regina fucked Jefferson, in particular, over so well. God, that scene at the end where all the dudes were sitting around congratulating themselves on how well they (THREE POWERFUL WHITE DICKHEADS) had manipulated Regina and broken her heart (ONE LONELY, TRAPPED YOUNG WOMAN) made me want to hurt them all so much. Can you imagine if Regina had possessed JUST ONE ALLY of Jefferson's or Rumpel's caliber? Someone actually on her side? Instead of her ineffectual father?

-Did anyone else notice that when Jefferson asked for a royal passport and Regina asked how she was supposed to manage that, Jefferson stared RIGHT DOWN HER SHIRT?

–I love how when Regina walked up to Rumpelstiltskin at the end, it wasn't just her hair and outfit that had changed - that was when she began to speak in her Evil Queen voice, which was the true sign of her leveling the fuck up to Evil: Level Fabulous.

–Stylistically, I loved that Victor's world was almost but not quite in black and white.

Questions: why did Regina marry the King? Why wasn't she able to get out of that if she was Rumpelstiltskin's apprentice before the marriage took place? When did Regina's father disappear? Basically, WHY DOES REGINA HAVE TO SUFFER SO MUCH? God, I just want her and Emma to be in the same world and then make out. I feel that Regina deserves that. Since she lost her boyfriend TWICE, cause fucking Whale screwed her back when she asked him to bring her bf back to life and then fucked it up when he tried again. Great job, dude, great job.

Really loved Regina in this episode! I was afraid the episode would be stupid when the previews for it pointed to Whale being Frankenstein but I actually liked the way they handled it. I totally wanted to punch Whale/Jefferson/Rumpel in the face. I am definitely glad Regina screwed Jefferson over so thoroughly too.
