Previously on "Once Upon a Time"...

So, you're just gonna
abandon this baby here?

The only way I can escape this prison

is by leaving someone in my bloodline

to take my place.

Is that what you're looking for?

But after everything that's happened,

I might just believe anything.

This is the M.E.'s report on Nick.

Our lawyer turned serial killer

was stabbed through
the heart one time...

from the inside.

The question is,

what the hell is going on in this town?

Jacinda, according to that,

Lucy's been right.

I am her father.

Soon, we'll find our sisters.

And then the Coven of
the Eight will be joined.

_

It'll be dark soon.

Perhaps we should turn around.

Yarrow, please.

Just trust me.

I want to show you something beautiful.

What if they see us?

We should go.

Gothel, we don't belong.

Look at them.

Have you ever seen anything like it?

I want to touch the fabric.

I want to know what it feels like.

To what end?

It'll never be ours.

That's their world.

You sound just like Mother.

If you don't want to be here,

you can go home without me.

You'll be in so much trouble.

I don't care.

Oh.

Hello?

I'm so sorry.

I shouldn't be here.

Wait!

What was that?

It was magic, wasn't it?

It was harmless.

I swear.

Please don't be angry.

Please don't tell anybody.

Why would we be angry?

We've never met anyone
with magic before.

It's incredible.

Well, most people are frightened.

We're not most people.

We think it's wonderful.

Maybe someday you can teach us.

Yes.

Yes!

I'd be delighted to teach you magic.

It seems we found a new sister today.

Me?

Oh, yes.

But we should find you
something decent to wear.

Tomorrow, Lord Adriel's hosting a party.

He throws the most elegant affairs.

You must come.

Oh, just what I need today...

A visit from a weirdo cult leader.

Hmm.

You're here to see Rogers and Weaver?

Actually, I'm here to see you.

Me?

Yes, you. You're going to help me

because I need someone in your position.

Sorry, lady.

Not interested.

You sure about that?

Because it seems to me
you're very interested.

It seems to me you can't say no.

What do you need?

My sisters are asleep,

and I need your help to wake them up.

Time has come for the coven to return.

Now that we're alone, we should talk.

This is real.

No.

See, it's not.

'Cause you can't be Lucy's father

because you and I, we never...

Well, maybe...

You ever been to Cabo?

I know, I know.

I-I would've remembered.

But still, somehow this happened.

Okay, so there's got
to be some sort of...

Okay.

Now, what if Lucy is right?

What if my crazy book is real?

You really think you're Lucy's father

and somehow I magically forgot about it?

When I met you in Hyperion Heights,

I loved you immediately.

- Henry.
- No, I can say it.

Love at first sight.

But maybe it's because it wasn't
actually love at first sight.

Maybe everything I felt

was because we already loved each other.

You really believe...

Yes.

I think I do.

If I'm Cinderella, then
where's my blue dress?

My glass slipper?

Ah...

My sanity for even
having this conversation?

Well, I don't know about the rest...

but look.

It's your slipper,

or part of it.

We found these.

It's just broken glass.

Maybe, maybe not.

Here.

Take this.

Does that do anything?

Will you do that for me?

Will you open your mind?

Just try.

Oh.

Sabine is texting me.

Drew bailed on work.

I got to get to the truck.

She needs me to man the fryer.

Hey, hey.

Are you leaving for Sabine

or because I freaked you out?

Maybe a little of both.

Can you please let me out of here?

I don't belong here.

The last guy that got
locked up inside this place

ended up dead.

Excellent, then I'm
glad you're up to speed

because that's exactly
what I wanted to discuss.

I took your suggestion

and looked at Nick
Branson's M.E. report,

and it doesn't make any sense.

It says he was stabbed from the inside.

I told you Samdi was powerful.

No, you see, I'm gonna need you

to be more descriptive than that.

How did he do this?

He used magic.

Magic.

So that's your story.

Magic is real, Detective.

Magic is a fairy tale.

Yes, it is. It's not from this land,

a land without magic,

but there are shreds of it
that have made their way over.

The sooner you accept that,

the more likely that
you're gonna survive.

Why do you think Nick was
killing all those women anyway?

He was targeting a cult.

Not a cult.

A coven.

He was hunting down witches.

There's no such thing.

And there's no way a man can
be stabbed from the inside.

Believe whatever you like, Detective,

but there is a war brewing,

and no one in this city is safe.

I've done as you've asked.

I've woken them.

At last.

My sisters, it's so
good to see you again.

Now it's time to reclaim
what was once ours.

That is enough masquerading
for one day, Daughter.

Darling, you can yearn
to be something else,

but you can't deny what you truly are...

A tree nymph like all of us.

Be proud.

Yes, Mother.

I hear you've been with the humans.

Yarrow.

Humans are mercurial creatures,

conflicted and irrational.

But the ones I met today were different.

They're not afraid of magic.

You are not human,

no matter how drawn you are to them.

Darling, you are of eternal nature,

like all of our kind.

Raised in the...

"The steadiness of seasons."

I know. I know it all, Mother.

I've heard it all.

What is before you is a great honor.

The mantle of "Mother" will be yours.

But I want freedom.

Well, when I pass the mantle onto you,

you will be mother of all
of the magic in the land.

That is freedom.

Then why does it feel like a prison?

Because you cannot exist
both with your family

and with the humans.

So I do have a choice.

But of course.

But you are my daughter,

and I know you'll be wise.

You'll realize that the only choice

is to follow your duties,

to follow nature.

Your girl's lovely, Tilly.

How do you know my name?

I know more than your name.

Bully for you.

And I know who you are, too.

You're part of that cult, and
I want you out of my sight.

I just want to talk.

Why the hell would I
want to talk to you?

Because I'm your mother.

No.

That's not possible.

My mother left years ago.

So either you're a liar or a monster

because what kind of
woman abandons her child?

I know I was selfish,

and it's no excuse, but the world was...

It was cruel to me.

And I became cruel, too.

But I want to change.

Maybe if you could forgive me,

maybe you'd find peace.

You'd get back what I took from you.

You'll feel wanted.

I already am wanted.

Already have people who care for me.

Let me guess...

Roni's not returning your calls?

How did you get past Monique?

I broke in to your apartment.

Charming Monique was nothing.

I shouldn't have underestimated you.

And how do you know Roni
isn't returning my calls?

Weaver stole the magic
you gave her to cure Henry,

and until she can
find a way to save him,

she's not dealing with anything else.

Double-crossed by her
oldest friend, was she?

Yeah. That's why I'm here.

If you had magic to give her once,

there must be more.

There has to be.

But that piece of magic,

like all such things in this land,

was terribly difficult to come by.

Imagine you're the hero and save Henry.

Roni would be real grateful, right?

More so than if I told
her how you wouldn't help.

Quite the blackmailer, aren't you?

All right, I'll see what I can do,

but I'm going to need your assistance.

W-What do I need to do?

Find something that
came over in the curse,

a symbol of Henry and Jacinda's love.

If you do, we might be able
to glean some magic from it.

I can do that.

I'll figure something out.

Good, because you're not the only one

who wants this curse broken.

A storm of witches is brewing,

and if we're going to survive,

I'm going to need magic.

All of us will.

Hey. What's wrong?

This!

This woman is what's wrong.

She just told me she's my mother.

It seems crazy, right?

I mean, she's not that
much older than me.

There's something about her.

Right?

It seems crazy, but
there's something about her.

You're not the only one
looking into crazy right now.

I'm investigating an impossible crime,

and it shares one thing with
your non-delusion-delusion...

Eloise Gardener.

So you believe me?

Well, I've learned never to doubt you.

Whatever's going on
here, no matter how crazy,

we'll figure it out together.

Thank you.

Thank you so much.

Enjoying yourself?

More than I ever dreamed.

Good, and it's about to get better.

I've been telling my
friends all about you.

You said you'd teach us magic, yes?

Mm-hmm.

Come on, Isla,

she can't do magic in front of everyone.

Of course not, silly, but
I have the perfect place.

Oh, please say you will.

Can't you show us just a little?

Why not?

I've always dreamed of
being special like you.

Do you think I can be?

Of course.

Magic's not as mysterious
as people think.

It's all around us if
you know where to look.

Even here in a place like this?

Especially in a place like this.

I'll show you.

You don't have to do this, Gothel.

No, it's fine.

These plants could use a little magic.

People forget that they're
alive just like they are

and probably even more so

because nothing from the
earth ever truly dies.

You see, that is the secret to magic.

The roots are right there
just waiting to be reborn.

It's beautiful, isn't it?

It is.

Such a pity.

What are you doing?

Did you really think
putting on a ball gown

made you one of us?

What's under that dress?

Scales?

Stop it!

You lied.

You are an abomination.

No.

Or maybe you just need a bath.

No! No! No!

No!!

Aww, that...

that's a much better
look on you, Gothel.

Now you can grow your roots

in some other land far away from us

because whatever thing you are,

you don't belong in our world.

Seraphina.

Let's go.

You're Margot, right? Tilly's friend.

Yeah.

Sorry, do I know you?

Probably not, but I
feel like I know you.

I'm a close relation of Tilly's.

- Really?
- Mm-hmm.

Well, any friend of Tilly's
gets a drink on the house.

- Ooh.
- Do you want to try something

from the new "Wanderlust Menu"?

It's inspired by all the best drinks

I had on my travels.

Oh, impressive list.

Oh, is that an Indian drink I see?

It is, and it's made
with real rose petals.

It'll blow your mind.

Such a beautiful country.

They, uh... they have
these sprightly trees

called Arunchal Hopea.

They went extinct nearly 20 years ago.

People thought they'd
make good fence posts.

That's terrible.

But that's what people
do. They destroy things.

I've been a gardener my whole life,

and I can honestly say

there's no greater pest than humanity.

You don't remember this,

but we've met before.

Such an insipid human you were.

Not the least bit helpful.

This time, I have a feeling

you're going to give
me exactly what I need.

Ow! What the hell?

Look, are you sure that
you want to drag Henry

into our Eloise Gardner problem?

Well, he helped solve
the Candy Killer case,

and he wrote a book about magic.

He's got to know
something about witches.

Yeah.

But what if he thinks that we're...

- Crazy?
- Yeah.

Welcome to my world.

Hey.

What's up?

Can we come in?

Kind of in the middle
of something right now.

Is it urgent?

I mean, you're not,
like, on the run, are you?

Not today, but I did find out my
mother might be Eloise Gardner,

and she's either a witch or cult leader

or both, I suppose.

And that Nick guy, he was
killed by voodoo magic.

In other words, yes,
it is rather urgent.

Right. Uh...

Yeah, okay.

Wow.

Guess we're not the
only ones who are crazy.

Yeah, I was thinking
maybe my book is real.

There are just too many odd things
in Hyperion Heights to keep ignoring.

I once saw a photo of
Roni and me at eight

that can't be explained.

I've got, uh...

this swan key chain.

Okay, Weaver's tea cup.

It's an exact copy down to
the placement of the chip

as the one on page 147 of my book.

Real or not, we still
don't have any answers

as to what Eloise's plan is.

Yeah, one question... if
Eloise really is a witch,

why isn't she using magic?

Because in a land without it,

she probably doesn't have enough.

In my book, the bigger the spell,

the bigger the magic needed to cast it.

So, whatever source of magic

this coven's trying to get its hands on,

if we can keep them from it,

then we can probably stop them,

whatever their plan is.

- Yep?
- That coven thing

you were looking at... Just got a lead

that might connect.

Group of shady women were spotted

entering the Hyperion Theater.

Hope that helps.

Oh, to get a real,
concrete lead today...

You've got no idea.

Thanks.

I just got a tip on Eloise.

It has to be followed up.

I'll tag along. Your
logic and my illogic

might crack this thing open.

You okay? I can take
you home if you'd like.

What if Eloise Gardener is home?

I always wanted a mum,

but she doesn't strike me
as the tuck-me-into-bed type.

Look, just because biology
says someone is a mother

doesn't make them one.

And whatever the truth is, Til,

I'll help you figure it out.

Mm.

If Henry's curse theory is correct,

then lots of people are
right next to the truth

and they don't even know it.

It's cruel, really...

To be so close to happiness
and kept so far away from it.

What made you so nostalgic, Luce?

Just after everything that's happened,

Nick not being who he seemed...

it's nice to remember who we are.

Oh!

What's "BL" stand for?

It's "Before Lucy."

Trust me, there is nothing in
there you're gonna care about.

What's this really about?

Truth is, I'm not looking for things

to help me forget
about Nick being my dad.

I'm looking for things
that say Henry Mills is.

I know it seems impossible,

but you once drove me to a boat
and told me to believe in you,

that we could run away together,

and I did.

Now I'm asking you to do the same.

Believe with me this is possible.

Concert tickets.

Hopper, my stuffed frog.

Old T-shirt from... Granny's.

It's from a diner where Henry grew up.

I bet he took it with him
to the enchanted forest.

What's this?

I-I've never seen that.

It's the glass slipper.

I knew it! You're Cinderella!

Hey, I know these can be a bit boring.

Oh, no.

It's exciting.

I get to do nothing with
someone for a change.

I am a bit hungry, though.

Aw, thank you.

Even better.

For everything.

For caring for me today,
for letting me live with you.

I don't know how I got to be so lucky

for you to be so nice to
a strange stranger like me.

There she is.

Wait right here.

I'm staying nowhere.

Yarrow?

Yarrow!

Mother!

Yarrow!

Where are you?!

It's too late.

Humans came.

They destroyed this grove.

No.

Each swing of their axe,

each touch of their torch

took the spirits of
your sisters one by one.

Everything you said about the humans

was right.

And I failed you.

No.

No, my darling, you haven't failed me.

Nature has taken its course,

and now you are the Mother.

And you hold

a very powerful seed
of magic within you.

They'll pay.

Every one of them will pay.

No.

Instead, you find a place to grow anew.

That is your responsibility now.

Remember what you were
destined to blossom into.

My daughter,

all mothers know

that only goodness can bear sweet fruit.

Mother?

Mother?

Mother!

Mother!

What are you doing here,
mate? Is something wrong?

Nothing's wrong.

In fact, it's all going as planned.

Hey! Where are you taking her?

To a place where the truth
will finally be revealed.

I swear, Eloise, I won't
let my badge stop me

from killing you if you hurt that girl!

Calling me Eloise?

My name is Mother Gothel,

and don't worry, Detective.

Tilly's not the one I'm going to hurt.

No!

Oh, you're back.

I think you've gotten
some mud on your dress.

Why'd you do it?

Because they were an abomination,

like you.

My mother told me to
never forget my roots,

and thanks to you, I never will.

Nor will I forget the
humans that murdered them!

You...

No. No.

killed my family.

No, no, please.

Please, no.

Plea...

You.

I'm like you,

but you're braver than I could ever be.

I hid who I was

because I was afraid
they would've come for me.

You don't have to be scared anymore.

Join me.

Join me!

You'll never be afraid again.

The guards are coming.

We should go.

No.

We will not run or hide

or entertain this human stain again.

They must all be made to pay!

You've been onto things
for a long time, Detective.

Questioning, investigating,

pondering the persistent
parade of the impossible.

You can rest easy

because you're right...

We are witches.

At least you don't have
to worry about a cult.

You disgrace your badge.

Let us go.

Oh, no, my child.

You're not going anywhere,

not until after you
help us cast our spell.

Hey.

It'll be all right, Tilly.

I really don't like it here.

That's because you haven't
accepted who you are yet.

I am truly sorry I never saw it sooner,

how special you are.

Had I know you were like us,

things would've been
very different for you.

Your mother has a gift for
finding special people...

Outcasts, exiles.

I was the first she
recruited to her coven.

A coven that'll soon be behind bars.

Don't listen to him.

We're your family,

and family help each other.

Like you helped my father?

You killed him!

Your father's right in front of you.

That's right.

The love you feel is real,
you just don't remember it.

You were born from both
sides of the looking glass

as both his and mine,
and you know it's true.

I only want to help you figure out

which side you belong on.

Leave humanity behind.

Join your sisters

and I'll be the mother
you always wanted.

Whatever you might be,

you're no mother to me.

If you won't help cast the spell for me,

perhaps you'll do it
to save your father.

I'm so sorry.

I didn't know.

This was the last refuge
of magic in this realm.

Everyone I loved was here.

All I did was pay back the wound

the humans left here tonight.

That you did.

How many are dead?

All of them.

I wiped the land clean.

May the Gods forgive.

There's nothing to forgive.

It's not even permanent.

Some slimy lump will flop ashore,

crawl towards humanity again.

And as is their way,

it'll be worse.

I shudder at the thought of
what destructive civilization

they'll create next.

This time, they'll do
it alone in a cold world

because now they've created something

that's never been before...

A land without magic.

They'll be alone?

Where will we be?

This will take us to another realm.

We'll find others like us,

and when the time is right
and we're strong enough,

we will return.

But you said the humans
would come back, too.

Then we'll cleanse the land once more

and reclaim our homes.

I'm sorry, Mother.

I didn't understand
what there was to lose.

And I won't forget my roots.

I know what exactly where
to come to regrow them.

Let's go, Seraphina.

_

I remember this.

This is it!

Another scrap of magic left behind.

How little mankind left...

Just tatters and rags.

It's time to change that.

Humans, even when they're beautiful,

they're poison.

What are you doing?

Taking another tatter of magic.

And amusingly, I'm also making a point.

I can either take a little bit of blood

or these witches here
can take the whole lot.

So I ask you again,

do you want to help me

or do you want to watch him die?

Don't do it, Tilly.

There you go.

And when you see the beauty

of what we're going to bring back,

you won't mind the cost at all.

We have everything we need.

Let's begin.

Well, you are a resourceful girl.

So, what do we do next?

We tape it up and she puts it on?

That's a charming old story,

but not the one we're telling.

Our purpose isn't to save a romance.

We're here to save a man's life.

That looks like fire.

That is the poison
in your father's body.

If we can pull it out,

he won't be harmed when
the curse is broken.

If this works,

go right away to your parents

and get them to break the curse.

It will finally be safe to do so.

And if Gothel is bringing
what I think she's bringing,

we will all need to be whole and awake.

Yes!

What the hell?

Uh... hello?

Henry, we found it.

We found the slipper.

The glass just fit together.

Henry, the shoe is real.

I wish I could show you,

but Lucy ran off with it somewhere.

But I think this is good news, right?

With the possible exception of
Lucy running with broken glass,

yes.

Yes, I think this is very good news.

It can't be real.

Can it?

Did we find each other
in some other world?

In a fairy tale?

Well, I happen to know a
lot about that fairy tale,

and there is one crucial
element still missing.

Wait.

I'm not her yet.

I have a lifetime of
memories of Jacinda,

a struggling single mom

who never thought she'd have romance

in her life again.

And that Jacinda wants
to kiss this Henry.

Is that okay?

That is more than okay.

Yes!

I don't remember anything
from the other life.

Did you kiss?

- Yes.
- Lucy.

There was no magical
thing, no... no pulse.

The curse didn't break.

It didn't work.

I don't understand.

Hold out your hands.

Old love... Blood of your father.

New love...

Blood from the woman with whom
you wish to spend your life.

What? Margot?

- What do you know about Mar...
- Hush.

Love betrayed...

Key to the grove,

which should've been my
daughter's birthright.

So, what's supposed to happen?

- Am I meant to...
- Please don't do this, Tilly.

I'm just one life.

If I truly am your father,

then I'm asking you as a father,

don't do this.

I feel that it's true.

You are my father.

That's why I have to do this.

I can't be responsible for killing you.

Nature's witches, words unheard,

our wishes worthless, worse than dirt.

Until we learned what we were worth

to turn our hurts into your burns.

Our purest urges now emerge.

Old for nursery, dark for church.

Close the circle.

Purge the earth.

Hold on to your mother's hand, dear.

I'm your family.
