UPDATE: Here are some more spoilers from TV Line
WILL BELLE EVER TOLL AGAIN? | The producers promised more on the Rumple/Belle/Lacey front before season’s end — including Lacey’s possibly surprising perspective on the prophecy about Henry, were she to get wind of it! — and also hinted it will take something brand-new, and not True Love’s Kiss, to bring Belle back. If, that is, Rumple still pines for the princess. “He seems to be enjoying Lacey because she lets him be who he really wants to be. And his son is who he wants to better for,” Kitsis noted. “So the question is, which one of those will win at the end? That would be the internal showdown for Mr. Gold.”

5 'Once Upon A Time' Finale Spoilers!
Hooked on Neverland
The next two episodes are, in many ways, one prolonged story with both installments focusing on Baelfire's backstory, and how he could become Peter Pan. "We've hinted that Baelfire knew somebody from the world of Peter Pan and we know that he has a weird connection to this person," Kitsis told us. "And this person will be seen and he has beautiful guyliner ... and a shiny hand." He added, "The finale is very Hook-centric in the flashback."
What Is The Home Office?
In the clip, Tamara talks about sending the magic beans and Regina's black diamond back to The Home Office for analysis. The creators promise fans will learn what The Home Office is and what they're after, but not why they want it over the next two episodes. Eddie adds, "We've all been trained with Initiatives and secret organizations, [so] we're hoping to lead you down a different path."

TBH that secret organisation crappola sounds very stale in my oppinion. It's been done to dead all over. Also land without magic? F**king blue fairy lied again, what else is new...
ReplyDeleteThey f**ked up more than just the taser..
ReplyDeleteI am disappointed to hear about a secret organization, this sounds like LOST storyline material. I don't care for the outside world to force itself into a season 3 storyliine with the our world what now growing their own magic beans so that can travel into different portals and destroy magic. IT just sounds like the story tellers are running out of story lines.
ReplyDeleteOh, great, another evil organization.... enough with that nonsense, didn't they learn from the whole Initiative crap from Revenge?! Focus on the core characters!
ReplyDeleteThey have every fairytale character imaginable and they are throwing in a secret organization? PASS
ReplyDeleteOmg...it is season 4 of Buffy.
ReplyDelete""We've all been trained with Initiatives and secret organizations, [so] we're hoping to lead you down a different path."
ReplyDeleteSo does this mean it is NOT a secret organization? I mean I don't have a problem if it is, as this is again borrowing Bad Robot's style. I could go for another Dharma Initiative, Massive Dynamics, Mittelos Bioscience, or a Fringe Division, but I'm still hoping they're from a futuristic reality or a parallel future reality of 'The Land Without Magic"...
So, I guess hoping for a quick end to the Tamara & Owen/Greg storyline isn't going to happen?
ReplyDeleteAgreed. This secret organization storyline is all kinds of bad writing. They
ReplyDeletehave so much to work with from the FTL stuff alone. Why do they have to resort
to creating a secret organization, like so many other shows are? Are they really trying to ruin this
show by changing it into a show about something else? 'Cause at this point, it's changing too much from the Season 1 concept for me. If this is what Season 3 is shaping up to be, with this secret organization as the 'big bad', I'm going to be pissed...and it'll be harder to find reasons to continue watching this show...continuously & live.
They wish..
ReplyDeleteI can't with their excuses and the "we're so amazing and smart storytellers"'tude
ReplyDelete(which would be fine if the excuses actually were valid and they WERE good storytellers...)
And this is when I consider giving up on this show altogether and just sticking to tumblr posts about Regina.
ReplyDeleteIf the magic-is-evil organization is what they have in mind for S3, I'm 99% sure I will hate it.
Basically: Season 4 of Buffy. Jane Espenson can't think beyond Buffy and A&E can't think beyond Lost.
ReplyDeleteExactly. The combination of those two things is something I *really* don't want to see. I enjoyed Buffy (granted, I was 10, so I have no idea if I would like it today) and (get ready to be crucified by huge Lost fandom) only managed to watch Lost for the first three seasons, but regardless of how good or bad you think the shows are, it's just damn boring to have the same story on your TV over and over again.
ReplyDeleteTo be honest, I was a HUGE Buffy stan in my teens but it doesn't really stand up now for me. And tbh, I thought Lost was terrible. Terribly executed and messy and nowhere near the Grand Master Plan that they thought it was. (Makes it super hard because my fiancée is a huuuuge Lost fan).
ReplyDeleteI know Eddy & Adam think it's clever to make references to other shows, but I don't. I think it's extremely lazy writing to rely on self-references from other, completely separate shows they've worked on.
The more I see of Jane's stuff, the more it becomes clear that she only has a few ideas and you see the same things playing out over and over again in several different shows.
Timeline reseting? And there is a Henry involved. I see a pattern here. LOL. Now make someone regular from the Fringe cast. :)
ReplyDeleteActually, I have a personal problem with this possible turn of events: I'm not a huge conspiracy theory/Grand Master Plan fan. I care about characters and how they interact with one another. As soon as any "Plan" becomes the center of the story, instead of the characters themselves, I loose interest. That's why I managed to enjoy X Files, even though it is probably the most iconic conspiracy theory show ever. Cause it was STILL about Mulder and Scully and what they went through together.
ReplyDeleteI watch OUaT because of Regina. And Rumple, sometimes. To me, they are interesting, potentially deep characters who could develop interesting stories. Despite all the crap that happened lately, the show was still about them. But if they switch from that and go all Lost on me, I'll give up. Not because it's a bad idea (I must say I don't have high expectations for the execution, but still, trying to not criticize here), but simply because it is not what I like to see on my tv.
I agree. It needs to be about the characters and the show has sidelined everyone this season except Regina and Rumple but they're not moving at all.
ReplyDeleteSo is this secret organization going to be like S.H.I.E.L.D.? Cause I am totally not here for that.
ReplyDeleteI believe "Home Office" is run by someone magical who came to our world and decided he would be the only one with magic available.
ReplyDeleteThe whole secret organization doesn't bother me that much, it can be done well (rarely is tho) but it pisses me off because they have every single fairy tale character and every 'baddie' (Jafar, Ursula etc) to play with... they seem to be giving up before they started and are sticking with the fairytale characters they have and are not moving forward. hey brought in Sleeping Beauty and Mulan for what, 5 episodes? What about Ariel? Alice?
ReplyDeleteThey said Ariel would be a next season thing and Alice is going to be in the spinoff show "Once: Wonderland"
