Season 6Episode 14: Page 23
Having actually viewed “Web page 23”, I was certainly entrusted to a sensation of “Oh, okay, I presume that’s out the way now”. Not since it had not been specifically pleasant, or had not been well carried out, since I do not assume either of those things hold true, but primarily even if it effectively fixes some vaguely annoying reduce troublesome story lines from the show to make sure that we can move onto other points. In this instance, it’s locking up the loosened ends of the Wickedness Queen as well as Robin.
The Evil Queen tale ended properly, as well as actually in the only satisfactory way that it could have: with Regina lastly discovering to approve and also to enjoy herself. It was the resolution that I have actually been anticipating for fairly some weeks, though the execution right here was a little abrupt. Sharing the darkness in between the pair makes total feeling, as well as factors into Regina trusting herself and welcoming all aspects of her being, as opposed to running from it.
Having stated that, I’m not entirely offered on the logic of The Wickedness Queen as well as Robin Hood attaining their satisfied finishing with each other in the Dream World. From a practical, story driven viewpoint, The Evil Queen was looking for a new beginning and also somewhere to rebound: the universe in which she is feared as well as, to everybody else’s understanding, recently killed the King as well as Queen and has abducted Princess Emma, rarely seems like the ideal place to begin with a blank slate.
In addition, Robin wishing to return there seems strange considering he chose to leave with Regina simple days in the past. Unexpectedly, he seems material to be there. Furthermore, every one of his more homicidal as well as bad propensities seem to have actually been ignored. Putting The Evil Queen and also him with each other is a wonderful means to toss the program back to that web page in the storybook and also showing the two of them bonding, yet we had currently developed in the programme that this wasn’t the exact same Robin that we knew previously, but by sharing the darkness in between herself and her doppelgänger, Regina and also the Wickedness Queen are essentially the very same individual currently. If Robin had not been ideal for Regina, why are he and the Evil Queen so suitable a match? It just appears slightly messy.
The flashbacks this week appeared to be a little bit off kilter, however the utmost web link was to broaden upon Regina’s self disgust. It’s something that the target market has most definitely been observing, yet it’s nice for the programme to recognize it. Having stated that, it definitely could have been extra explicit throughout the whole episode, both in the past and also in the present to make these even more psychological beats struck a bit harder. Inevitably, what we had was seeing that Regina’s many hated person was herself, prior to declaring “I enjoy myself” in the present, as if self approval and also self love is really that easy a journey.
Somewhere else, Emma and also Hook’s interaction certainly took a surprising turn, when Emma took place to find the reality of Hook’s deceptiveness and also function in eliminating David’s dad. As it turns out, it’s not the act that Emma is really interested in, yet more that he actually lied to her regarding it, and also called off the engagement, prior to Hook ended up being sent out away by Gideon on the Nautilus. To have Emma believe that Hook has actually left right here is enormously tragic, so ideally Hook locates his back sooner before later on.
As a final note, isn’t it always a little dubious that when it’s snowing in Storybrooke it likewise seems to snow in the corresponding recalls? I shan’t complain excessive, because the scene with Hook as well as Snow at the harbour with the snow falling around them was definitely spectacular (even if it has to have been an absolute problem of an evening shoot), yet it constantly tickles me as a principle.
Eventually “Web page 23” is a means of smoothing over some exceptional plot factors to make sure that the program can concentrate a lot more heavily upon the Black Fairy story and also Gideon’s function within it. With any luck along the road, we also get some significant development for poor Belle, who is currently of little significance now that she’s not being alarmed by Rumple, apparently. With any luck we additionally reach see a little bit more of Emma, having had the entire of the involvement storyline distinguished Hook’s perspective as opposed to hers, as well as figure out a way to break Snow and Charming’s sleeping curse.
