NARRATOR: Previously on Once Upon A Time...

Hi, m'lady.

I mean, Violet.

(CHUCKLES)

EMMA: I miss you.

-(WHOOSHING) (GASPS)

HOOK: Swan?

-EMMA: How are you here? -HOOK: Zeus.

He must have sent me back. (CHUCKLES)

And this isn't going to kill you.

It's going to end you.

No!

This is my kingdom.

-WOMAN: To Robin! -To Robin!

Regina?

Look, I know that there's nothing we can really say,

but we just want you to know

you don't have to go through this alone.

She won't have to.

I think what my sister needs is a little time with someone

who understands what she's going through.

DAVID: Zelena, we're sorry.

What happened with Hades, that... (SIGHS) ...can't exactly be easy.

We'll leave you two alone.

VIOLET: Henry.

Violet.

I'm sorry about Robin.

Thank you.

When I heard you went to the Underworld,

I was afraid I was never going to see you again.

You were?

Me, too.

When we get to Granny's, I think it's best if you wait outside.

Aye. Regina...

Robin's death, it can't be easy for her.

And seeing you back when that's not possible for him?

Fate is cruel.

It could push her over the edge.

She cursed an entire kingdom when she lost her first love.

Yeah, but she's changed much since then.

I know.

But I still need to break the news very carefully.

It's the right thing to do.

Belle...

Since your father refused to wake you, I'm going to have to find another way.

I will.

It's not just you I have to worry about now.

It's our family. Our unborn child.

There's only one way I can free you both.

I need more power.

(RATTLING)

I need all of it.

(SIGHS) Regina.

REGINA: Emma, please.

I've already had enough people feeling sorry for me today.

I know.

I just think we should talk somewhere quiet.

It's kind of delicate.

(RUMBLING)

What the hell was that?

-Swan! Is everything okay? -(CROWD MUTTERING)

Hook?

ZELENA: What bloody hell's the pirate doing here?

We thought we left you in the Underworld.

HOOK: Aye. You did.

But now I'm back.

Delicate as always.

Regina, I...

I'm used to suffering, Swan.

And I'm used to others getting their way.

Right now, neither one of our feelings matter.

Given that blast of magic,

there's only one person not present

who's powerful enough for something like that.

ZELENA: Gold.

He's got the Olympian Crystal.

Or part of it, anyway.

Some of it must have survived.

I can still feel the aura from it.

REGINA: Yeah, you're not the only one.

He used it to cast a tethering spell.

Tethering spell?

What was Gold attaching the crystal to?

Storybrooke's magic.

That's why he cast a spell here.

With that crystal, he can harness all of this town's magic for his own purpose.

Gold already has the power of all the Dark Ones.

-Why does he need more? -EMMA: To wake Belle.

True love's kiss didn't work because

she doesn't want to be with him.

Aye.

Once the Crocodile wakes Belle, do you think he'll stop there?

Do you think he'll just turn the bloody crystal

and all of its power over to us?

EMMA: He's right.

-Let's go get that crystal. -REGINA: Let's.

-Where should we start? -Actually...

Um...

I was thinking maybe you should sit this one out.

Oh, that's why you were trying to be delicate with me.

You're worried the Evil Queen is about to come out to play.

No, I just want what's best for you.

No, you don't.

When you're upset, we follow you to hell.

But when I'm upset, I get a time-out.

Okay.

(STAMMERS) You're not in any state to think straight about this.

And you don't get to tell me what to do.

Moms, please...

Henry, now's not the time.

Maybe just take a minute to cool off and think about it.

You don't want my help?

Fine.

I'll fix this on my own.

(SIGHS)

Kid...

Go to my place and stay there. You'll be safe. Okay?

We got this.

I mean it, Henry.

Go right home.

(BELLS CHIME)

VIOLET: Henry.

What's going on? I got your text.

It's my grandpa.

He's trying to steal Storybrooke's magic.

It made me realize how bad it is.

It's always magic. Always.

Magic turned my mom into a Dark One.

It took away the man my other mom loved.

And now...

Now I think it's going to tear my parents apart.

I used to think there was light and dark magic.

But it's all bad.

Look around this shop.

These.

These are Geppetto's parents.

This needle

has put dozens of people under a curse they can't wake from.

And this.

An entire village is frozen in there.

It's hurt so many people.

My mother.

That's how she died.

Magic.

Come with me. On a road trip.

It's like a quest.

But on a bus.

Which is like a horse but with wheels and seats.

-Just... Just... Just come with me. -(CHUCKLEYS)

What do you say? I think I can fix this.

My father would probably kill me...

But, yes. Of course I'll come.

Great. Great.

-We'll call it Operation Mixtape. -(CHUCKLES)

There's just one more thing we're going to need.

I promised I'd never use this pen to do anything besides record what happens.

But what we're about to do is for the greater good.

(GASPS)

What's that?

The crystal my grandpa tethered Storybrooke's magic to.

Wait, I don't understand. You said magic is bad.

Why are we going to take it out of Storybrooke?

To destroy it.

Once and for all.

EMMA: So far, no sign of Gold.

Which means we need to expand our search perimeter

-to include the woods. -(DOOR OPENS)

Where is he?

I told you we got this. We'll find Gold.

(SIGHS) Not Gold. Henry.

"Mom, there's only one way to fix everything that's tearing us apart.

"I have to destroy the..."

"The source of all of our problems."

I got the same text.

What does he mean?

What is the source of all our problems? What is he going to destroy?

Well, I think I can answer that.

The Olympian Crystal and all the magic tethered to it.

It would appear my grandson has outsmarted us all.

He used his Authorial power

to steal the crystal right out from under my nose.

Would Henry even do that? Destroy magic?

We better hope he doesn't.

REGINA: Why?

What happens if Henry succeeds?

Considering this town was built with magic,

what do you think will happen?

He would never destroy magic if he knew it could hurt us.

I'll be sure to tell him that right before I take the crystal back.

Don't you dare go near my son.

Sorry, dearie.

But he's threatening me now.

Regina, where are you going?

I just lost Robin. I'm not about to lose Henry, too.

I know. But we have to be smart about this.

Gold doesn't know where Henry is any more than we do.

"We"?

I don't remember inviting you to come along.

You benched me.

Now I bench you.

Even if I knew how to find Henry?

All right, Sheriff Swan.

Where is he?

You think after all those times he ran away,

I wouldn't put a GPS app on his phone?

Let's get to the bug. We have to catch up to him.

Where's he headed?

Boston.

MERIDA: Is it true magic might disappear?

Only if Henry destroys the crystal.

Which he won't. Not with Emma and Regina searching for him.

Yeah, but what if they don't find him in time?

How are we gonna get back without magic?

It won't be a problem if we send you home now.

We?

I think you mean me, dear.

But this time, summon the portal without the twister.

You heroes ruin all the fun.

Very well.

REGINA: He wasn't on the bus?

Lady, I don't know what to tell you. Everyone got off.

Then why does the GPS tracker still say he's on it?

Because Henry hid his phone under one of the seats.

He wanted us to think he came to Boston.

Ladies, if you don't mind, it's my lunch.

Got any more bright ideas?

-Regina... -(CELLPHONE IMPACTS)

Well, that's new.

How is that even possible? We're in a land without magic.

And so is Henry. With the crystal.

And all of the magic from Storybrooke.

Regina, if our magic works out here, Gold's magic works out here.

We've got to find Henry before he does.

Well, if he's not in Boston,

then where is he?

I thought the spires of Camelot were tall.

Welcome to New York City.

(LAUGHS)

Are you sure Regina won't mind us leaving without a goodbye?

She'll understand.

Robin would want him to grow up in Sherwood Forest.

We'll come and visit you soon, okay?

And we'll even bring your baby sister.

(BABY MOANS)

For Regina.

From one of my papa's arrows.

How sweet.

She'll cherish it.

That's everyone.

Let's close it up.

(CRACKLING)

(WHOOSHING)

What's happening?

Stand back!

DAVID: Zelena!

It must have something to do with magic being tied to that bloody crystal!

(ALL GRUNT)

Everyone okay?

(ALL PANTING)

HOOK: For now.

Look.

Well, we're certainly not in Storybrooke anymore.

EMMA: There has to be something in here that belongs to Henry.

Assuming you have a map somewhere in this pigsty of yours.

The glove box.

By the way, it was your idea to go to Hardy's.

Give me your hand.

Why? What is that?

What?

Worried I might make you take an eternal nap on a bus bench?

If you want to help Henry, you're just going to have to trust me.

Ow!

Now that there's magic in the world, this just might work.

And if it does, you're going to lead us right to him.

EMMA: Of course. New York.

I hope Gold doesn't know that yet.

Welcome to New York. It'll be $15.

(BUZZER BUZZES)

(GASPS)

VIOLET: I can't imagine living here.

It's overwhelming.

I thought the same thing when I first went to Camelot.

Until you showed me around.

Well, I want to see this place, Henry.

Truly, but...

But what does it have to do with destroying magic?

It's got to do with my dad.

Magic tore apart his family, too,

when my grandpa became the Dark One.

VIOLET: And did he want to destroy magic, too?

HENRY: The truth is, for a really long time.

No one else knows this. Not even my moms.

He made me promise not to tell anyone.

It's safe with me, I promise.

See, that's why he was in New York.

He was trying to find a way to protect himself

in case his dad found him.

Right, and he thought the best way of doing that

was by destroying magic.

Did he ever figure it out?

He died before he could.

But I know he got close.

He kept everything he found in a journal.

It's got to be in my dad's apartment. Come on.

MARY: If this isn't Storybrooke or the enchanted forest, then where are we?

Wherever we are, I'd rather not stick around long enough to find out.

Can you use the wand and get us back to Storybrooke?

Not quite.

HOOK: So we're trapped in this mysterious realm,

wherever it is.

You can fix it, right?

Of course.

Do you happen to have any duct tape?

We're not affixing the bumper to that God-awful truck of yours.

This requires the proper potions.

None of which I have with me.

Well, then, we're just gonna have to go find them.

ZELENA: Then we'll have to move quickly.

If we don't find Regina and Emma before Henry destroys magic,

fixing this wand won't matter.

We'll be cut off from Storybrooke for good.

(DAVID SIGHS)

Hold on, I hear something.

(SCISSORS CLIPPING)

Excuse me.

Can you tell us what land we're in?

HOOK: Whoa! No need to run!

Please don't hurt me.

We just want to know what land we're in.

I'm not supposed to talk to strangers.

MARY: It's okay.

You don't need to be afraid of us.

No, you don't understand. You shouldn't be here. You have to go.

Well, that's what we want to do. We're trying to get home to our families.

To a town called Storybrooke.

That's a strange name.

We need magic to get back there.

Can you help us?

Magic? No, no, no. (STAMMERING) Magic is dangerous.

If I help you, I'll be punished.

Punished? By who?

MAN: By me.

(WEAPON FIRES)

(GROANS)

I guess now we know what that Groundsman was so afraid of.

This isn't like any dungeon I've ever seen.

These bars are enchanted.

Magic won't get us out of here.

What about the wand?

Do you still have it?

Should I be offended that he didn't frisk me?

-Not like this is any use to us in here. -(RATTLING)

Hide it. Someone's coming.

WARDEN: There you are.

The prisoners who attacked my Groundsman.

No, no, no, we didn't attack anyone.

This is just a big misunderstanding.

We just want to know where we are.

All you need to know is that you don't want to be here.

And that you're the ones who are going to be answering my questions.

Like, why are you really here?

We just want to go home.

You must think me so naive.

I know you're lying.

I know who really sent you.

So, tell me.

What does the Dark One want?

You know the bloody Crocodile?

Who are you? What do you really want?

(GRUNTS LOUDLY)

Don't lie to me.

-(CHOKING) -He's too strong.

Look, we get it. You're powerful.

But killing him isn't going to change the truth.

Which is that we don't work for Rumplestiltskin.

He's our enemy.

He's the whole reason we're here.

He tried to steal magic from our town to wake the woman he loves.

(HOOK GASPS)

She's pregnant.

You expect me to believe that the Dark One has found love?

DAVID: Yes.

So, whatever grudge you have against him,

we have nothing to do with it.

Let us go,

and you won't have to worry about us ever again.

In my experience,

if you really don't want to worry about something,

you lock it into a cage.

A strong cage. Like this one.

It's when you unlock the cage...

That's when the trouble starts.

EMMA: Looks like Henry was here.

But I don't think he was alone.

This is Henry and Violet's song.

They have a song?

He really likes her. She's a nice girl.

You're just saying that because

you feel bad about ripping her heart out in Camelot.

I'll like her a lot better when I know where she's taken my son.

Well, I think I might be able to figure that out.

Yes, he has definitely been here.

He tried to wipe the search history clean.

But luckily,

I can get it back.

I won't hold my breath.

Maybe there's something else in here that can tell us where they've gone.

Did you find something?

REGINA: One of Robin's books.

He must have brought it with him from Storybrooke when he came here.

I know because I gave it to him.

(CHUCKLES) It's a collection of this world's legends about Robin Hood.

He used to laugh at everything they got wrong.

What is it? Are you okay?

It's a letter from Robin to me.

He must have written it when he was trying to

make things work with Marian.

Or your sister.

So, what do I do?

You have to read it.

ROBIN HOOD: My dear Regina,

I know I shouldn't be writing this.

But I had to let you know how proud I am of you.

You opened your heart to love and let it change you.

And no matter what separates us,

I know you'll always be the heroine woman I fell in love with.

Robin.

EMMA: Regina? Are you okay? What did it say?

Please, Emma, if you're going to try to make me feel better, don't.

No, I know that I can't. And I won't.

I'm...

Sorry about earlier.

I was so wrapped up worrying about how you'd react to Hook, I...

I wasn't there for you about Robin.

You wanna know why I got so angry?

Because you're right.

The Evil Queen is inside me.

Always trying to get out.

I can't expect you to get it.

Well, I fought the darkness.

You know I do understand.

All due respect, but you don't.

You went up to the precipice.

But you got pulled back before it consumed you.

I was consumed.

And I have to live with it every day.

I can't imagine how that feels.

It's exhausting.

I'm constantly at war with my instincts.

Like, with Hook,

my first impulse was to rip his throat out

because it's not fair that he survives and Robin doesn't.

But I didn't.

Because now I know that's wrong.

Much as I want to give in to evil, I don't.

So, I do good.

And hate every moment of it.

-You hate doing good? -(SIGHS) Yes.

It's complicated.

I know it's right, but it always leads to loss for me.

Yet I keep doing it now, and I keep suffering.

But I know the Evil Queen can't return,

so, that's how it has to be.

I'll never be at peace with myself.

That's not true.

You fell in love with Robin, and you were happy...

Yeah, and look what happened.

I am what I am.

I did what I did.

Many years ago, I had a choice.

Snow White told a secret.

And I could have chosen to forgive her.

Instead, I did terrible things.

Unspeakable things.

That will always hang over me.

I've tried to be the hero.

And you have been.

But it doesn't matter.

There is no redemption for me.

There is only suffering.

Because now I have a curse.

The curse of knowing the difference between good and evil.

And I'm caught between them.

If I revert, I lose everyone I love.

Henry...

My friends...

Everyone.

And if I go forward trying to be good,

I have to live with my past darkness

and all its well-deserved consequences.

I don't believe that.

I believe in you.

That's because

you are good.

But for me, it's a simple choice, really.

I'd rather suffer

than see that pain on the people I care about.

This is my fate.

I'm trapped.

(COMPUTER BEEPS)

He's at the Midtown Library.

REGINA: What are they doing there?

WOMAN: You want to go to the Rare Reading Room? Really?

Well, here we are.

No one's been back here in ages.

-Most folks just come for the YA stuff. -(CHUCKLEYS)

Well, good luck with your term paper.

HENRY: My dad's journal said he had an appointment here.

Whatever he was looking for to destroy magic must be in this room.

Start with these.

Read every page, and then re-read it,

because whatever my dad was looking for,

he never found it.

And you really think we can?

We have to.

That's impossible.

Henry? What did you find?

HENRY: These books, they all look exactly like my storybook.

They're magic. What are they doing in New York?

I've never seen these characters in my book.

Look at this. There are so many stories.

But, Henry, you told me that all the stories in your book are real.

Yeah.

So, maybe...

These are all real, too.

(DAVID GRUNTS SOFTLY)

(SIGHS)

You all right?

Aye.

Bloody fantastic.

Other than that, even in this hellish land,

the bloody Crocodile manages to get in my way.

What the devil do you think he did to that Warden?

With him, it could be anything.

(RATTLING)

-Get ready. Someone's coming. -DAVID: Okay.

Let's do this.

There you are.

What are you doing here?

What does it look like? I'm here to help you.

Help us? Last time you wouldn't even talk to us.

That's because the Warden was watching me.

I had no choice.

HOOK: If you really wanna help us, prove it.

Open those bloody bars.

I can't.

His orderly, Poole, keeps the key with him at all times.

I might be able to get the magic you need,

if you'll make a promise to me first.

Tell us. Anything.

When you leave this place,

promise you'll take me with you back to your home.

To Storybrooke? Why?

Because I wasn't always the gardener here.

I was a doctor,

before the Warden took control and ruined everything.

He made me a prisoner.

Look. We need magic so I can fix this wand.

I know exactly where to go.

The hospital lab.

But I can't take anything without the Warden knowing that it's missing.

You'll have to give the pieces to me so I can fix it there.

Then I'll bring it back.

Please understand. That wand is our only way home.

Okay? So why should we trust you?

You've met the Warden.

Trust me, I want to get away from him as much as you do.

This is a bad plan.

It's the only one we've got.

HENRY: Now I see why my dad gave up.

There's nothing in here about destroying magic.

We came all this way for nothing.

Not for nothing.

You'll figure it out.

Henry.

Henry, I know why your dad never finished his quest.

It's because he never visited Camelot.

Back in Camelot,

my tutor used to show me paintings of the Holy Grail.

He said it was the source of all magic.

And it looked just like that.

But the Grail turned into Excalibur. That can't be it.

No. The Grail was always silver.

But this looks kind of like its twin.

And if the Grail really was the beginning of all magic...

-This might be the end of it. -Yeah.

Stand back.

Why? What are you going...

Oh.

You were right.

(GASPS)

This will destroy magic.

So what we do now? What happens next?

Whatever it is, it's not safe to do here.

Hello, Henry.

Violet, get behind me.

You're not getting this.

Not without a fight.

Too bad you're going to lose.

(WHIRRING)

(WHIRRING STOPS)

What are you doing in here?

(STAMMERING) The Warden wanted me to fix this.

It's a surgical instrument.

Well, if that's true, you won't mind me asking the Warden himself.

No. You can't do that.

You know he doesn't like to be disturbed.

(WHIMPERS)

(GRUNTS)

(STRAINING)

Now, like I said...

It's time to see the Warden.

(GASPS)

(GURGLES)

(GAGS)

(SCREAMING)

(PANTING)

Why am I here?

Sorry to disturb you.

The doctor was in his lab fixing a wand

I can only imagine he got from the prisoners.

And so you did this?

The doctor was running away. I had no choice.

But you know the rules.

(CHOKING)

No one hurts Dr. Jekyll.

(GRUNTS)

Except me.

Oh, what a mess.

The doctor hasn't been brave enough to come down here for quite some time.

He must think that these prisoners can help him.

Should we kill 'em? Just to be safe?

I would be happy to do it.

Hmm, yes, I'm sure you would be.

The fact is that the doctor is on to something.

This place that they told him about, this Storybrooke...

It could be the answer we're looking for.

You mean it?

You think this could be the place?

I think that we have been trapped in this land for far too long.

It's time that we found ourselves a home.

And so,

I shall allow the doctor to go through with his plan,

but I'm going to make one small alteration.

The doctor isn't the only one who will be going to this Storybrooke.

We all will.

Henry! Are you okay?

HENRY: Mom. Where's Violet?

I'm right here. I'm all right.

What happened to you? To both of you?

Grandpa.

He has the crystal now.

Henry, what were you thinking?

Why would you try to destroy magic?

Do you really have to ask me that?

You finally had a chance to be happy.

And then magic took it away from you. Just like with Daniel.

Henry...

The Evil Queen is never coming back.

You don't have to worry about me.

I don't.

Because my other mom is doing that for me.

You thought she was gonna go all Evil Queen again.

I'm sorry. I should have trusted Regina.

But you didn't!

Because you know how it goes for us.

Every time it looks like we could be happy,

magic just comes in and wrecks it.

Is that what you really think?

Yeah.

In case you both forgot, magic took away my dad.

And it took away Violet's mom.

And I don't know what I would do

if it took away one of you.

-Henry... -Don't!

Just don't.

Henry, what were you doing down here?

Following my dad's trail to figure out how to destroy magic.

But we didn't find anything.

It was just a waste of time.

So, what do we do now?

Because Henry's grandpa has the crystal.

REGINA: Well we have to find him.

Give me your hand.

Is this really going to help find him?

REGINA: This will tell us if he's still in New York.

Why isn't it working?

Our magic. It's gone.

The crystal. Gold must have done something to it.

REGINA: What the hell is he doing?

He's not going to give that magic back to anyone.

He's going to keep it all for himself.

We're going to have to do it the old-fashioned way.

(CRACKLING AND RUMBLING)

You're summoning a portal?

Shh.

Is this how we get to this...

-This Storybrooke? -No.

For what we're after, you need to think bigger.

Then what are we doing?

Taking something that will give us the power we need.

Now...

When I wake you,

I think you'll finally understand that everything I've done,

I've done for you and our child.

And then,

I'm going to give you what you've always wanted, Belle.

I'm going to show you the world.

(RUMBLING)

A portal.

Belle!

(GASPS)

Belle! Belle.

Belle!

Oh, no.

Oh, no.

MAN: I don't understand.

How is this box going to help us find a home?

It's not the box that's important, it's what's inside it.

Or, rather, who.

If the Dark One ever wishes to see his wife again,

he will have to do exactly as I say.

(SIGHS)

(MR. HYDE READING)

(CLATTERS)

That's the thing about you, Hyde. You're not half as clever as you think.

Did you get into your own rum?

You think that's going to work when my magic can't?

Well, I suppose I can just do nothing. But then again, that's your job!

If you really want to get out of here,

I can arrange a trip right back to the Underworld!

Stop it! Now, we need to be patient.

The Groundsman promised to fix the wand and bring it back to us.

Unfortunately, I was only able to keep half my promise.

What do you mean? Where's the wand?

I repaired it, but then the Warden took it from me.

I didn't come empty-handed, though.

Seems the Orderly, he enjoyed a little bit too much whiskey today.

We need to get that wand back from that Warden.

Do you know where he is?

Uh, no. But first things first.

Before we find him, we must have a way to defeat him.

He's quite powerful, although I might have a way.

But it is dangerous.

Hasn't stopped us before.

I just went to Hell and back, I'm not afraid of your Warden.

Then follow me.

(INDISTINCT CHATTER)

Bloody hell.

DAVID: Where are we?

It's like all the realms at once.

You're closer than you think. This land is a refuge,

filled with outcasts from all over.

Each forced to flee their problems. Each finding safe haven here.

MARY: Forced to flee from what?

DR. JEKYLL: The reasons are as varied as the populace.

Everyone has their own tale.

That's why this place has come to be known as the Land of Untold Stories.

HOOK: It's a tad ironic of a name, no?

Given that this land is seemingly filled with stories.

Perhaps. But there's only one story

we need to worry about right now, that's our own.

HOOK: Right, and that story better end with us getting back to our world.

Henry. Henry, will you stop?

Your moms told us to wait back in the library.

They could be in trouble. And since when do you care what they say?

You already ran away with me. You lied about the dark grail.

VIOLET: Henry.

I know you're scared.

And if you really think this is the best thing to do, I'll help you.

Thank you.

But I hope you have a good plan.

Because we don't have magic, and we have no idea

-where your grandfather is. -(THUNDER RUMBLING)

Actually, I think I do.

(RUMBLING CONTINUES)

(ELEVATOR DINGS)

(MUSIC PLAYING OVER EARPHONES)

(WHIRRING)

Well, don't just stand there.

Here is your dinner, sir.

The spaghetti Bolognese.

Uh...

I'm so sorry.

The kitchen must've made a mistake. I'll get it fixed right away.

No need.

The meal is irrelevant.

This is sterling silver?

Yes.

You can leave.

Hmm.

GOLD: Actually, there is one more thing.

Things might get messy here.

Yeah.

(THUNDER RUMBLING)

Gold might have magic on his side, but he sure isn't subtle.

If I know Henry, he's already disobeyed us.

We should call and tell him to stay put.

Which would work if I hadn't torched his phone.

-What the hell... -What's wrong?

It's Granny. Something's happened in Storybrooke.

My parents, Hook and your sister were pulled through some kind of portal.

Again? To where?

Granny's an expert on lasagna, not magic.

All she says is that they vanished with the Sorcerer's wand

and never came back.

Regina. Hey!

They might all be in danger. We have to bring them home.

Well, the only way to do that is to get our magic back from Gold.

What are you doing? We need a plan.

I have one. I still have a fist. Gold still has a nose.

If you don't like it, I'll do this alone.

I get it. I want to help my family, too, but we have to be smart about this.

(KNOCKING)

Didn't you see the sign?

We need to talk. Alone.

The Savior doesn't even know I'm here.

So what makes you think I have any interest in talking to you?

Because the storm clouds outside

tell me you haven't been able to wake Belle yet.

And apparently, it's not from a lack of trying.

Seems to me like you can use the help of your best student.

(CHUCKLES)

Yes, but we both know that's not you, dearie.

My best student was a queen.

You have her buried under layers of tasteful cotton and good intentions.

Such a pity.

What if I told you I was ready to let her back out?

What if I told you I am sick of losing everyone I care about?

Well, I'd say, "What's changed?"

Zelena. She's in trouble.

All because the heroes convinced her to use the Sorcerer's wand.

And now, they're trapped in another realm.

What makes you think I would ever help Zelena?

Because you need me.

You need the Evil Queen.

I don't wanna lose one more person I love.

Not after what happened to Robin Hood.

Well, perhaps you're right.

Perhaps we can help one another.

May 1?

Now, let's talk about finding your sister.

This is where I lived when I was still a doctor at the hospital.

So, not many maids with untold stories then?

-What's that? -A serum I created.

Designed to separate the good from the evil in someone.

It's what we're going to use to defeat the Warden.

Well, I didn't exactly see any good in him.

It's there.

And the good has been fighting to get out for a long time.

But it never could, until now.

The flower, it's from the vine you were trimming back in the garden.

Yes. The final ingredient.

If only he knew I was growing it right under his nose.

Actually, he did. Back off!

I don't understand. You were passed out drunk!

I let you get away SO you could finish your serum.

(GRUNTS)

Now, let's show the Warden what you've done.

(GAGS)

-(STRAINING) Get away! -What did you do to him?

You have to run!

(SCREAMS)

David, I think I know what story our good doctor is from.

DAVID: Dr. Jekyll.

-Which means he's... -MARY:: Mr. Hyde.

Mr... Who? Who's Mr. Hyde?

You know what I say. Shoot first, ask questions later!

(GROANS)

(INHALES)

-Jekyll was right, run! -Run.

MR. HYDE: No.

(PANTING)

To helping one another, once again.

Speaking of... Where is Belle?

She was taken. Or rather, Pandora's Box was taken with her in it.

How?

GOLD: I didn't know how until you arrived.

It was the Sorcerer's wand.

Zelena must be trapped because someone's taken it from her.

Which means they're both in the same realm.

And you?

Well, you're going to help me find it, Your Majesty.

Help yourself to a drink, Ms. Swan.

I think I'll pass.

-You knew. -Of course I knew.

You've changed, Regina.

The loss of one man isn't gonna push you back over the edge. Not anymore.

For better or worse, this is now who you are.

Guilt-ridden and weak.

I only let you in because I needed this.

Something connected to Zelena, so you can find them.

Indeed. And now that I have it...

I have no need for either of you.

Gold...

-HENRY: Stop! -Henry, get out of here!

-There's nothing you can do. -Yes, there is.

Henry...

What have you done?

I destroyed magic.

Now, Poole, you might want to go into the other room.

(SNIFFS)

(SCREAMING)

(BOTH PANTING)

(GASPS)

So nice to finally meet you.

Doctor.

Hyde...

I've heard so much about you.

(GRUNTS)

You're even more disappointing in person.

You're so weak.

So pathetic.

I was actually impressed that you had the courage

to try to finish that serum of yours in secret.

I had no choice.

Being with you was destroying me.

But do you see the irony?

Being separate is

what's going to destroy you.

(CHOKING)

-(GRUNTS) -I don't think so, mate.

(CLATTERING)

ZELENA: Oh.

I've been waiting to do that.

(STRAINING)

-No. -DAVID: Doctor!

I told you to run.

No, you risked everything to save us.

We had to do the same.

To be clear, I was fine running.

Now I'm going to kill you all.

Leave it. It's of no use to us now.

And we don't want to be here when he wakes up.

Have you any idea what you've just done?

Stopped you from hurting my moms. And anybody else.

You stopped me from rescuing Belle.

Not to mention your family who are now trapped in the same realm with her.

What's he talking about?

David, Snow, Hook and Zelena are in another realm right now.

And thanks to you, we have no way of helping them get back.

I did what I had to. This isn't on me, it's on you!

-Henry... -I'll make sure he doesn't go far.

Storybrooke.

Henry rid it of its magic. What happened to it?

Storybrooke survived for 28 years without magic.

I'm sure it can manage a few more.

You said it would be destroyed!

Yes. When I had to motivate you to find your wayward son.

What should we do? Call the police?

See how he does without his powers in a real prison?

That's an excellent idea.

Not if you want my help finding the one person who may still have magic.

What are you talking about? You said this was a land without magic.

It is. And it isn't.

Enough with the riddles. Who has magic?

Well, for that answer, it looks like

we're just gonna have to learn to work together now.

(SIGHS)

I'll go with Gold and make sure he keeps his hands off this crystal.

You find Henry.

(SIGHS)

-Hey. Could we have a second? -Of course.

How'd you know where to find me?

Because when we lived in New York,

this was where we came when you were upset.

I'd give you a penny and tell you to wish your problems away.

Remember?

What do you say? Wanna give it a try?

I'm sorry, Mom, but that's not going to make me feel better now.

Why not?

When we lived here,

there wasn't any magic.

We didn't even know it existed. And, Mom, we were happy.

We were.

And I wouldn't trade that time for anything.

But you're forgetting something.

It was just the two of us.

-And now... -Yeah.

And that's why I thought, if I destroyed magic in Storybrooke,

then we could all be happy, like you and I were.

But because of what I did,

we'll never even see half of our family again.

That may not be true.

Your mom is with Gold to try to find a way.

Should we see if they had any luck?

Why didn't you believe me

when I told you I wanted to help you?

(CHUCKLES) Wondering if you've lost your edge?

Or hoping you finally managed to bury the Evil Queen

deep enough inside that I wouldn't buy it?

Don't try to psychoanalyze me.

Look, let me give you a friendly piece of advice.

Partitioning the darkness inside

will not help you become the woman you want to be.

Worked so far.

Has it?

You know, I once thought

I could contain the darkness to one tiny corner of my soul.

First for Baelfire, then for Belle.

And I always failed. Do you wanna know why?

Because I like the darkness.

It's as much who I am as the light.

Why can't you seem to grasp it's not either-or?

Because I'm not like you.

I don't like the darkness.

You can tell yourself what you like,

but deep down, the Evil Queen is who you are.

And the more you keep her locked inside,

the more you're going to suffer.

What the hell is this place?

Greetings.

What brings you to my humble shop?

Well, we are in the market for something a little more powerful

than what you have on display.

If you mean narcotics, I'm just a simple herbalist.

I don't think so.

Regina, meet the Dragon.

Good to see you're breathing again.

I hear one of my father's minions paid you a visit.

Peter Pan was powerful. But I'm resilient.

I assume you're here because you want something, Rumplestiltskin.

But I'm afraid I'm not in the business

of helping hearts filled with such darkness.

-Gold, this is a waste of time. -But you...

You, I will help.

I see a noble battle deep inside your soul, Regina.

Between light and dark.

And for that, I will do my best to aid you.

It is imperative you win, for all of us.

There, look.

Where the hell is that?

Wherever it is, they're in trouble.

We need to get through SO we can help them.

(WHOOSHING)

(PANTS LOUDLY)

I'm afraid opening a portal to that realm is beyond my power.

You can't give up.

My family, they're in trouble!

I've done all I can.

But you,

you haven't.

Me?

All of you.

Just because the boy destroyed Storybrooke's magic

doesn't mean there isn't any in this world.

Really? Because I think there's a reason

they call this place the Land Without Magic.

Yes, because that's how it appears.

There's magic everywhere,

if you're willing to see it.

That sounds an awful lot like something a friend told me a long time ago.

August?

Yes.

I know who you are.

Savior.

If you want to find magic,

remember

what he taught you.

You have to believe.

So, how do you suggest we do that?

After all, saying you believe doesn't make it so.

I know how.

REGINA: How is that going to help us?

HENRY: Because there's magic in it.

Every time someone makes a wish.

I don't think throwing a coin in a fountain

is what the Dragon was talking about.

All due respect, Grandpa,

but I think that was exactly what he was talking about.

Mom, when we were living in New York,

do you remember the last time you took me here?

Yeah. I don't know. You were upset about something.

Maybe something at school.

It was because of you.

I could tell you were lonely.

So I wished our family would be complete.

And do you know what happened a few days later?

Hook came to New York.

And he brought us back to Storybrooke and we were reunited with our family.

There was magic.

It was right here.

We just didn't know it.

Don't you see? We just need to wish they were back.

I wish we were reunited with our family.

(TINKLING)

Come on. It can't just be me.

Everybody, make a wish.

-This will work. I promise. -Okay, kid.

(WATER SPLASHES)

Emma, did you see that?

Sometimes that boy surprises me.

(SPLASH)

We just need more.

We can blend in here, but so can Hyde.

He could be anywhere.

Is there a reason your evil alter ego doesn't look anything like you?

And is 10 times as strong?

Everyone sees their worst self differently.

Some as a mirror image, others as a literal monster.

However the mind conjures it.

Well, perhaps next time, try an aggressive bunny rabbit?

DAVID: All right, we've gotta find a way out.

Over here.

Hurry. This way.

(SIGHS) Seriously?

Come on.

People of New York City.

My name is Henry Mills.

And I need your help.

My family is in danger, but we can save them.

With magic.

(CROWD LAUGHS)

I know how crazy it sounds.

But magic is real.

It's all around us.

You just have to be willing to see it, you have to be willing to believe.

And I know how hard that is.

I once let my own belief waver.

But I was wrong.

We need magic.

It can make the world a better place.

I know it seems impossible.

But think about it.

At some point in your life, every one of you was once a believer.

And at some point, you left that part of you behind.

But you can go back to it.

If you believe.

So what do you say?

Will you make a wish for us?

Will you help us return magic to this world?

(CROWD INDISTINCTLY MUTTERING)

We just have to make a wish.

Come on. Let's go.

(SPLASHING)

He's actually restoring magic.

See, I told you.

(COINS CLATTERING)

Pennies.

Not pennies, David.

Wishes.

I don't care who's making them. Let's get out of here.

(EMMA GASPS)

Dad.

Mom.

I knew you'd find us, Swan.

It wasn't me this time, it was all Henry.

(CROWD APPLAUDING AND CHEERING)

Henry.

They think it was all an act, that none of this was real.

It's okay, Henry.

This is the only way they can understand.

But, for a moment, they believed.

For a moment, you did the impossible.

You made the world believe.

(MR. HYDE GROWLING)

Still battling against your better half, I see.

And failing.

MR. HYDE: So, you made it through that portal.

GOLD: I'm never one to miss an opportunity.

Of course not.

And now that you're finally here, Rumplestiltskin,

you're going to help me win that battle.

Because if you ever wish to see your wife or your child-to-be again,

you'll do as I ask.

(CHOKES)

The only deal I'm going to make with you

is the one where you return that box to me

and then, I suppose,

you get to live.

(STRAINING) I can help you

wake Belle.

(GASPS AND COUGHS)

What did you just say?

I know that she's under a sleeping curse.

I can provide you with the information to wake her.

You're lying.

Thinking it will save your skin.

Am I now?

(BREATHES DEEPLY)

I've been the Warden here to many, from all distant lands.

I've learned much.

There is one place

that holds the answer you seek.

Where?

I think it's time that we talk about a deal.

I'll never be able to thank you enough for coming back to save me.

Now that I am separated from that monster,

I can make a fresh start of my life in your Storybrooke.

HOOK: Still missing a crocodile.

Gold wasn't in the park?

In all the commotion, he must have slipped through the portal to find Belle.

Where's Regina? Wasn't she out there looking with you?

No, she said she wanted to be alone but she wouldn't say why.

Emma, this couldn't still be about the squabble you two had

in Storybrooke, could it?

No, we solved that.

I know what this is. It's something bigger.

(DOOR OPENS)

Hey.

I thought you may like something to keep you warm.

You know I don't do hot cocoa with cinnamon.

I know.

MARY: Emma told me what's going on with you.

You don't have to go through this alone.

Well, I'm afraid that I do.

If I want to keep the Evil Queen at bay,

I have to open myself up to a life of pain and suffering.

And if I don't keep her at bay...

Well, that's just not an option.

-There has to be something we can do. -There isn't.

Trust me.

I even made a second wish at the fountain.

I wished the Evil Queen away so I can be free of everything she did.

I did.

We forgive you, you know.

The problem is, as long as she's inside me,

it doesn't matter,

her baggage, her karma, call it what you want,

will always be there.

Just another useless wish.

You want a fresh start.

I don't know for sure, Regina,

but maybe that wish can come true after all.

How?

MARY: Jekyll said he didn't know how to thank us,

but he found a way.

He grabbed this before we fled the lab.

It's the serum that split him from Mr. Hyde.

He said there's enough left for another dose.

You think this will work on me?

I believe that this could be the end of the Evil Queen,

as long as you're sure that's what you want.

I want her gone.

MARY: Then let's get rid of her.

Let's be the family we were always meant to be. All of us.

Go downstairs.

Jekyll said there will be a moment of disorientation

when the Evil Queen won't have her magic.

That's your chance. You cannot hesitate.

Understood.

Now, please. Leave me.

-EMMA: I'm staying. -I'm staying, too.

I was there when the Evil Queen was born.

I kind of helped bring her into the world.

I want to see you end her.

Get ready to stand back because

I have a feeling we're about to meet a very angry queen.

And she didn't like you on a good day.

-Emma? -I'm ready.

(GROANS)

(GRUNTING)

(SCREAMING)

Look at what you've become.

-(GRUNTS) -(CHAINS RATTLE)

EMMA: Regina, now's your chance. Destroy her.

(CHUCKLES)

QUEEN: You, destroy me?

You don't have what it takes.

Regina.

You're weak.

No matter what you do, you can't destroy our darkness.

Deep down inside, you know the truth.

You need me.

No.

I don't.

(GRUNTS)

(BEATING)

I'm sorry.

(SIGHS)

Home sweet home.

And in one piece.

I have to go, Henry.

My dad, I need to talk to him.

HENRY: Good luck.

I'm sorry if I got you in trouble

for missing everyone's trip back to Camelot.

It's okay.

There's something I haven't told you.

My father didn't go back

because he isn't from Camelot.

It's just a place he wound up in.

I don't understand.

He's originally from here. This land.

From a place called Connecticut.

What?

He never felt at home in Camelot.

You know, he always said he was glad that I was born there because

being a Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's court

is no great shakes.

I don't know what great shakes are,

but I do know that I like it here.

(BOTH CHUCKLE)

Really?

So, I'm guessing Operation Mixtape was a success.

Mom. Come on.

We still need to untether the magic from this thing.

It's even lovelier than you described.

Well, follow me, we'll show you around. First stop, Granny's.

-EMMA: Killian. (CHUCKLES)

What is it, love, you don't still feel guilty about my return, do you?

No, it's just after everything we've been through,

darkness, Hades, being separated by realms...

Just wanted to say something.

You know, when we're not in the middle of a big battle,

or one of us is facing death.

When things are just normal.

And what's that, Swan?

I love you.

HENRY: Well, you did it, Mom. You destroyed the Evil Queen.

How do you feel?

Free.

Now let's make sure no one can ever steal this again.

(WHIRRING)

Thank you for that.

I'd hate to be trapped in this town without magic.

That would be truly barbaric.

Mr. Hyde.

How did you get here?

Gold.

He made a deal with you, didn't he?

Yes, that he did.

I provided him with some information

in exchange for Storybrooke.

Excuse me?

Storybrooke is mine now.

And I brought some friends.

You know, I've been looking for a place like this for quite some time.

A land where all the world's lost and forgotten stories

could play themselves out.

And now that I have brought them here,

that is exactly what they're going to do.

Let me tell you something, Mr. Hyde.

I know how your story ends.

You lose.

I wouldn't bet on it, Regina.

Despite what you may think,

darkness is not as easy to snuff out

as you might believe.

(CHIMING)

The Evil Queen.

Regina never should have let me out to play.

What are you doing here?

I came to set the record straight.

You were right about one thing, Dragon.

There was a battle raging inside Regina.

And she may have won the fight.

But this

iS a war.

And it's just begun.

(GRUNTS)

(BEATING)

The Queen is back.
