Another episode where it was all happening. Said that Ivy (Adelaide Kane) made Reggie (Lana Parilla) find that pic on purpose and wanted to use her for her own ends against Victoria (Gabrielle Anwar). It was apparent and poor Reggie fell for it, or rather had to. As we got flashes to the Other Realm again where Reggie tried to help Drizella with magic as she saw potential in her. Yet she didn't realize she'd be the one who would be taken advantage of and surely she should have realized the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Especially with all her dealings as the Evil Queen. Drizella would be just as evil, manipulative as her mother. Being rescued from the man-eating giant plant was probably just another rouse on her part to get rescued by her and she'd have a soft spot for her if she lied about how she hates her mother. Well, not so much a lie as a manipulation. Reggie warning her not to become dark. Hey if only Rumples (Robert Carlyle) could've got Drizella to become the Dark One.
Speaking of, he managed to show up in the Other Realm this ep and told Reggie his sad story of how he and Belle spent time together and how she grew old and died and how it changed him. He now wants to get rid of his darkness and well, if Reggie could do it, then so could he. He also tells; reminds her how she too was like Drizella when she was the Evil Queen and how her mother knew everything she was doing. But Reggie is genuinely fooled into thinking Drizella is as innocent as she appears. Drizella telling her Victoria intends to bring back Anastasia with a pure heart and how that will be Drizella 's so she wants Reggie to help kill her. However Reggie says that's not her anymore and she'll be making a big mistake. She doesn't want Drizella to become evil. Sorry she already is. Reggie also despairs when Henry (Andrew J West) doesn't need her anymore as he and Cinders (Dania Ramirez) fight off rebels in the woods and she doesn't have to use her magic to help. She tells the same to Rumples.
Later Drizella beings her betrothed Prince Gregor (Julian Haig) to do the dirty deed for her which Reggie also believes she'll get him to do. However Drizella gets the plant to kill the prince instead, now her heart is black and she won't be able to use it for Anastasia. Reggie tells her that heroes always find a way to break curses and Drizella vanishes. Ah Reggie you shouldn't have said that, cos she recalled it back in Hyperion heights and used it against her.
In Hyperion Heights Ivy gets the Witch (Emma Booth) to conjure up the flower/plant again, as she brings her soil from the garden. The Witch telling her it was a mistake to let Ronnie/Reggie find the photo. Reggie shows the picture to Henry again and he thinks it could've been Photoshopped for his book, with Reggie actually being Emma. Reggie thinks she and Henry could convince Lucy (Alison Fernandez) they believe her about the book and the curse and this way she'll get out of her 'fantasy' phase. Which is unlikely. Also telling Henry he should ask Jacinda on a date. He sees Ivy's uploaded all sorts of pics of her and Henry drinking and he doesn't want Jacinda to get the wrong idea. Reggie talks to Lucy at the apartment, where she's not supposed to be and she mentions the book turning up in the closest. Reggie thinks they should form a pact and find out about the photo. Having also told Henry that she was turned down for an adoption once.
Reggie asks Rumples/Weaver for help in looking up a 'Regina Mills' and whether she was in the system for an adoption. She adds she'll owe him a favour. Ooh Dearie, we know he's gonna collect on that! He even mentions it later when he brings her the info and there was a Regina after all. Naturally, but then he already knew that anyway now he knows who he really is. Henry brings along a mix tape when he helps Jacinda fix the truck, trying to explain the pics with Ivy. She doesn't need an explanation from him and they can have a date now since he's good at fixing things. Seriously can't believe Jacinda said "food" truck cos it sounded more like "foot" truck coming from her!! Some better pronouncation please and less loud music which drowns out and garbles half of what is said!
Ivy pours Reggie a drink from the top shelf and adds some potion to it which will make her recall everything. Knew there was something in it but Reggie did you really need a drink poured by her. She wants her to know enough so she can help Ivy with her plans and go back to being the Evil Queen. True love's kiss will break the curse, so she wants Reggie to break up Henry and Jacinda. Later on the bench, she tells Henry how good it is they're trying to get to know one another and he should keep her abreast on things with Jacinda and how they go.
Hook Rogers (Colin O'Donoghue) takes Alice (Rose Reynolds) to her shack and she wants him to play chess. Reminding him he should look at the pieces he's played. He brings out his black book and finds the tattoo again which he calls a rune. Wouldn't it be great if Rumples found out Reggie knows who she really is and they could get together to rid the curse and Ivy/Victoria once and for all and then everyone could go their own ways with their true happy endings. Ending the show on a high. There's so much repetition going on from past stories/episodes that it'll become tedious. But Henry you do need your mother(s) and it's not just about growing up and using their magic, or then using it for him. What would he be without them.
