Once Upon A Time 6.9 "Changelings" Review
The Evil Queen is given the ultimatum of killing Zelen (Rebecca Mader) and having to do this but even if Regina (Lana Parilla) still blames Zelena for Robin's death, she can't still hold her responsible for it. Zelena wasn't even around when Robin was killed and it's not like she knew he would get it from despicable Hades. As for not forgiving, well seems to me they've been through too much not to forgive. Especially after they came together when their mother opened up a lot when they were in Hades. Regina even threatens to crush her own heart if it means the Evil Queen will meet her demise in order to stop her from killing Zelena. A bit harsh, but there doesn't seem to be any way around it. Especially since all of the Evil Queen's outfits get more stupendous and glamorous, I mean, Regina had nothing like this or the hairstyles.
This is more about Rumples (Robert Carlyle) and we now get to see that the Black Fairy is actually his own mother so there's quite a lot of backstory still for him. Here he manages to kidnap a child and leaves it at the castle for Belle (Emilie de Ravin) to work out who the baby is. His father was Peter Pan and he led the boys into Neverland, taking them from their families to form his own band of the Lost Boys (which sounds like a pop group, sorry didn't mean it to. But apparently his mother has the same trait and kidnapping/stealing children is something she's into in a big way. So as far as Rumples is concerned the bad apple doesn't fall far from the tree. (No not one of Reggie's red apples!) Hook (Colin O'Donoghue) and Emma (Jennifer Morrison) also helping Belle after she has her dream, which leads her to the book in the library. Belle's pregnancy is completed in record time, who didn't see that coming and she gives her son to the Blue Fairy (Keegan Connor Tracy) to spirit away and keep safe. So if she can't look after him, then there's no way she was letting Rumples get his hands on him too.
Emma has another vision which she hopes will help her resolve who's out to get her too and Aladdin (Deniz Akdeniz) becomes the Genie of the lamp to grant the Evil Queen her wishes, which became a sort of silly game, with having to word what they wanted, then Charming (Josh Dallas) getting hold of the lamp, then becoming the master of the Genie and all that repetitive nonsense. Charming wishing that Queenie becomes the snake that she is.
Rumples being abandoned by his mother speaks volumes to how he turned out, especially in wanting to be there for his son now, but it was a little too late though. I mean he did exactly the same thing to Bae and couldn't be a father to him then or even now. Even after losing him, it seems he hasn't learned what it is to be a father and to stop being possessive. Does this in some way resonate in having to have power at all costs no matter if he's alone in the longterm or not. Power is the one thing he can manipulate, control and will always have, which won't desert him.
Belle's dreams with her son and how he keeps coming into them, leading her into some kind of future mess she won't be able to get out of, appears a bit sinister, especially since we find out that she didn't have any part in his upbringing and he was brought up by someone who wasn't good. He seems to be manipulating her with some sort of agenda for Rumples, especially since he doesn't even know him. It seems he was also manipulated when little to harbour so much hate against a father he never knew and taking sides with his mother, just doesn't seem to be right.
