"Previously on Once Upon A Time..." "Soon I will have what I want." "A family that loves me." "Sometimes, ordinary objects can come to possess their own special kind of magic." "I'm ready to make that deal." "I want my ribbons back." "I'm no longer convinced you have anything I want." "You want what all villains want." "Everything." "Every Dark One tries." "Every one fails." "You will never collect enough power to do what you want." "Oh, I will." "But, alas, you won't be there to see it." "If you truly want to save Marian..." "You're gonna have to forget about me." "You were planning to use this to strip away her magic." "No, that's not why I had it." "The family that you think you have..." "They may love you..." "Keep your distance." "I don't want to hurt anyone." " But they also fear you." " Let me go!" "Emma!" "Did you find her?" "No." "We looked everywhere." "She doesn't want to be found." "Once Upon A Time: "Smash the Mirror (1/2)" Season 4 Episode 8" "Original Airdate Nov. 16, 2014" "I know who you are." "And I can be of no help to you." "No, of course not." "You're an errand boy long past his prime." "I wish to speak to the one you work for." "There are many who desire an audience with the sorcerer, but he speaks only through his apprentice." "Then tell him, apprentice," "I wish to make a deal." "The sorcerer does not make petty deals, especially with those who have succumbed to the darkness..." "Like you." "I think in this case, he might make a small exception." "We'll see." "I have his hat." "You have no idea the forces you are dealing with." "Hmm." "Tell me where it is." "Oh." "No." "Did you think that I was foolish enough to bring it with me?" "The hat is hidden far away." "And unless he gives me what I want, the sorcerer will never see his hat again." "And what is it that you so desire?" "Happiness." "The kind I haven't known in a long time... since I was a little girl, running in a field with my sisters, chasing a kite." "Our love made us strong." "Until it didn't." "My sisters could never accept who I was because they were... ordinary." "I want two new sisters, born with magic, like me." "My niece, Elsa, will be joining me." "We need a third magical sister... a perfect match." "A match like that will be extremely hard to come by." "It could take time." "Tell the sorcerer I am a very patient woman." "I am willing to wait as long as it takes to find a perfect sister." "Okay." "Okay, come on." "Calm down." "Mom?" "Henry, what are you doing here?" "I've been out all night looking for you." " Everyone has." " I told them all to stay away." "I can't control my powers right now." "Listen, don't worry about me." "I'm gonna find a way to fix this, but until I do..." " You got to go." " No." "You always think that pulling away from people will fix your problems, but it never does." "I can help you." "Henry, just wait." "I..." "Henry!" "Henry, are you okay?" "You okay?" "Yeah, I'm..." "I'm fine." "Is that a cut?" "Henry, what did I do?" "I-It's fine." "I'm okay." "I'm sorry." "I'm so sorry." "Mom." "Stop!" "Please, don't come any closer." "I love you, kid, but you got to go." "Just go!" "I know exactly how you feel..." "Seeing the fear in his eyes." "You are out of control." "But, Emma, you're not going to hurt me." "Nor should you." "I'm on your side." "Just leave me the hell alone." "You can run, but it won't help." "The only way this ends is you embracing who you are." "If it means hurting people I love, no, thanks." "Mm, good morning." "Well, look who's finally woken up." "I apologize, but, uh, that was the best..." "Sleep I've had in a very long time." "How would you like to come back to my camp..." "And let me cook you breakfast?" "Ohh, that sounds lovely, but we both know we can't do that." "Yeah, you're probably right." "Little John is a bit of a gossip." "There it is." "There's that elusive but satisfying smile" "I think about every time I close my eyes." "This makes me wonder why we didn't do this a few decades ago." "I think you were suffering from a bit of heartbreak and a touch of self-loathing." "And I was just some drunk in a bar with a tattoo." "Who tinker bell said I was destined to be with." "I should have listened to that stupid fairy." "Things might have turned out differently had I chosen you over... well, instead of..." " Evil." " Hmm." "You made mistakes." "And now you're making up for them." "Or digging myself in deeper." "You're married." "I know." "Even if there wasn't a Marian" "I'm certain this would end badly." "Are you really that much of a pessimist?" "Well, you would be, too, if you knew everything I did." "Have you seen this before?" "No." "It's a magical storybook, which we're all written into." "And there's me, walking away from you at the bar." "Where did this come from?" "I don't know." "It just appeared when Henry needed it most, full of stories about heroes and villains." "Guess which column I'm in." "This book is about the past." "Like you said, you're not the Evil Queen anymore." "Tell that to the author because he seems to have made it a rule that villains don't get happy endings, even if they change, even if they try to be good." "Point him to me." "I'll be happy to have more than a conversation." "I wish it were that simple, but I don't know where he is or who he is or if it's a he or a she or an it." "I've searched everywhere, and I've been failing." "Regina, let me help." "You can't." "And this..." "Cannot happen a second time." "You understand?" "I know." "But..." "If we don't leave this room, then I think that this still... this counts as the first time, doesn't it?" "You'd think a big yellow driving machine would be easier to find." "Perhaps she doesn't want to be found, since, you know, that's what she bloody told us." "Well, the good news is thanks to the ice wall, Emma can't leave town." "The longer she isolates herself, the worse it'll get." "Her magic will just keep spiraling." "Elsa's right." "This was a bad idea coming home." "We should still be out there searching." "Hey, this isn't your fault." "It isn't." "We'll find Emma, but we've been searching all night." "Everyone's exhausted, yourself included." "So we refuel, we regroup." "And we go out, and we find our daughter, okay?" "Okay." "You don't have to look anymore." "Henry." "We thought you were asleep upstairs." "We told you to stay here." "What happened?" "I snuck out, okay?" "I'm sorry, but I found her." "How is she?" "Is she okay?" "Is she hurt?" "She's out in the woods." "I thought I could help calm her down, but when I showed up, it just made things worse." "Come with me." "I'll clean you up in the bathroom." "This is bad news." "If anyone can calm her down, it's Henry." "When your powers are out of control, everything's upside down." "You don't want to be anywhere near the people you care about." "Wonderful." "Well, shall we send Sneezy after her, then?" "Or happy?" "Which is the dwarf she despises?" "I was so scared that I would hurt Ana until I finally realized you can't run away from the people who love you because, in the end, they're the only ones who can help you." "Hurry, I want everything ready before Ana arrives." "Uh, chocolate fondue goes there." "Chocolate toast, chocolate julekake." "And chocolate ice cream." "Or is ice cream too obvious?" "Should we lose the ice cream?" "Oh, Ana, don't come in yet." "I haven't got everything ready." "I'm afraid Ana won't be at dinner tonight." "Something quite terrible has happened." "Could you leave please?" "It's all right." "We'll finish later." "What is it?" "This will be hard to understand, but Ana, she hasn't been entirely honest with you." "She didn't come back from Misthaven empty-handed." "She found the thing your parents were looking for." "Which was...?" "A magical hat to take away your powers, to cure you of the very thing that makes you special." "So that's why they left on that boat." "But why would Ana hide that from me?" "Because your dear sister was planning to use it on you." "No, she would never." "She tried it on me first." "Fortunately, I stopped her." "She's in the dungeon, awaiting your royal judgment." "Oh, there must be some misunderstanding." "She called me a monster." "I'm afraid she was very clear on her feelings about our powers." "She's my sister." "She's always supported me." "I felt that way about my sister, your mother, before she dropped me in that urn." "My mother put you in there?" "Why have you never told me this?" "You had such beautiful memories." "I didn't want to destroy them." "And I was hoping that Ana would be different." "But she is exactly like your mother." "She will never accept who you are." "I'm so sorry." "I-I felt that you deserved the truth." "Are you okay?" "I'd actually like to be left alone, if that's okay." "Of course." "I'll be near, if you need me." "If you're trying to hide from me, Ms. Swan, you're doing a poor job." "I'm not hiding from you." "I'm hiding from everyone else." "Ah." "So Belle tells me." "She was watching Neal all night." "While my family was searching for me, I know." "My magic is hurting people, Gold... people I love." "I need you to help me control it." "What makes you think I'm your best option?" "Because I..." "Hurt Henry." "What?" "I... he's okay, but it was just luck." "You're probably the only person who's safe around me right now." "I need you to help before I hurt anybody else." "There's only one way to help with this affliction." "Well, just fine." "Do it." "You haven't heard what I have to say." "I don't care." "My son is in pain because of me." "Just fix it." "This..." "This is an ancient spell." "It's designed to take away light magic from those who choose to part with it, but the effect would be permanent." " So I'd lose all my magic." "I'd be..." " Ordinary." "But..." "Your magic would no longer hurt the ones you love, and you would be able to embrace your son." "Do it." "Well, unfortunately, savior magic doesn't go quietly." "Though the spell won't hurt you, it will destroy almost everything else within a city block." "That would make for quite a macabre sight at grannies, don't you think?" "So let's find somewhere else out in the woods." "As you wish." "I think I know..." "Just the spot." "Here..." "Is an abandoned manor." "Right here." "You meet me here at sundown." "And I'll have everything prepared." "Thanks, Gold." "Please don't tell anyone I was here." "Don't worry about me, dearie." "It'll be our little secret." "I need to see my sister, Ana, immediately." "Elsa!" "I thought you'd never find me." "Our aunt Ingrid..." "she locked me in here." "Because you tried to attack her." "No, Elsa, you can't believe anything she says." "She lied about her past." " She's lying about me." " Is she?" "Did you learn what our parents were after and then hide it?" "I was waiting for the right moment." "So you lied and kept this magical object, this hat, which could strip me of all my powers." "Yes, but I would never hurt you." "Enough!" "Leave me alone to speak with my sister..." "Now." "Please." "You have to believe me." "Of course I believe you." "I'm so sorry about all that, Ana." "Wait." "This was all a ruse?" "It was a ruse!" "Ohh." "I needed the guards to think I sided with Ingrid." "I'm so sorry." "Don't apologize." "You were fantastic." "I believed every word." "I was absolutely crushed." "Here." "I got this back from the jailer." "Thank you." "When they took this, it... it was like they were taking you." "I'm never going to take this off again." "Well, hopefully, you'll never end up in prison again." "Oh, speaking of which," "I'm really worried about Ingrid right now." "She's scary and powerful and smart and scary." "You already said scary." "So I'm really hoping you have a plan." "I have a plan..." "well, half a plan." "We're going to sneak you out of here and then steal back the urn..." "And then trap her inside it." "That sounds like a whole plan." "However, I don't know where she hides the urn, and we live in a very, very large castle." "Don't worry about that part." "I grew up running around this castle." "I know every nook and cranny." "How is he?" "I gave him enough ice for the week." "It should help with the swelling." "No." "How is he?" "Upset." "I just wanted him to understand" "Emma's magic is tied to her emotions, like mine." "The reason she hurt him is because she was trying so hard not to hurt him." "It sounds very convoluted when I try to explain it now." "No, no." "Um..." "It makes perfect sense." "Where's Henry?" "Is he okay?" "He's fine." "He's upstairs." "We've been trying to call you all night." "Well, I'm sorry if I don't respond to your every summons!" "Though I did bring that locator potion you wanted." "Maybe next time, try leading with, "thank you."" "Now, may I see my son, please?" "You might want to finish buttoning your shirt first." "Oh." "Well, I was in a rush to get here." "A locator potion." "How does this work, exactly?" "We just pour it over anything that belonged to Emma... something..." "Something like this." "It's her." "Hey, mom." "It's me." "Did Henry come home?" "Oh, yes, yes." "No, he's fine." "Emma, I am so sorry about what happened yesterday." "I don't want you to ever think that we are afraid of you." "Don't worry." "It doesn't matter." "No, of course it matters." "This is all gonna be over soon." "I just needed to tell you that I'm okay." "I-I have a way to fix everything." "Emma, no, wait." "What did she say?" "She said she's going to get rid of her magic..." "Forever." "How is that even possible?" "She said it will all be over soon, and she can't wait to be home for a cocoa with cinnamon." "Did she say anything about the method?" "If it was a spell or... a magic object of some kind?" "Who cares how she's doing it?" "That's not what matters here." "No, you're absolutely right." "I wonder if she tried to call me." "Bloody hell." "I left my talking phone in the back of your truck." "It's just called a phone." "What an impractical name." "I'll be back in two shakes." "Emma, it's Killian." "Call me right away, or you may never make it home for cinnamon and cocoa..." "Ever." "Damn it, Swan." "Don't tell me you trusted The Crocodile." "It's dusty in here." "I'm surprised it bothers you." "Hey, I may have slept in a barn, but it was a spotless barn." "I've never been in this part of the palace." "What makes you think Ingrid hid the urn here?" "Mother and father told me not to go in the east wing because it was crumbling and dangerous." "So, of course, I had to." "Naturally." "But it didn't seem dangerous to me." "Just... forgotten." "Mother probably wanted to forget the painful memories of her sister." "You royals sure go to exhaustive lengths to ignore your issues." "You're still here?" "You're supposed to be outside keeping watch." "And, remember, if you see Ingrid, use the secret signal." "Wait, do we have a secret signal?" "Uh, I think "run" will work just fine." "What is it, Elsa?" "Is everything all right?" "Yeah, I was just thinking about what it must have been like when mother and Ingrid were younger." "I wonder what happened that made them turn against each other." "Knowing Ingrid, I'm not surprised things got ugly." "You don't need to worry." "It's in the past." "And you and I both know that can never happen to us." "Now..." "We need to get searching." "We need to find that urn." "Hans!" "Look, he's... he's..." "He's frozen." "I guess I forgot to tell you everything that happened since you were away." "Ingrid did this?" "To be fair, it's the one good thing she's done since getting out of that urn." "And look, there it is." "It's smaller than I imagined." "It must not have been very comfortable." "Well, she's going to have to make do because she's going right back inside it." "Did you come here for a reason?" "As I recall, I already told you what you need to do to free yourself from your dagger." "Hmm." "I have nothing more to give you..." "Unless... you simply like watching me." "I never do anything without a good reason." "And watching your twisted mind at work does not qualify." "Twisted?" "Says the man who betrayed everyone in Storybrooke." "I haven't betrayed a single person." "Not yet, anyway." "Did you forget that you gave me those?" "Did you forget what they can do?" "I don't forget much, dearie." "But if you plan to put that ribbon on Emma Swan, you're about to be disappointed." "With her powers out of control," "I've now found my own use for her." "You think you can take her away from me now?" "What did you do?" "Look down." "Remember the urn your sister placed you in?" "It had the power to limit your magic." "Elsa destroyed that urn." "Well, funny thing about magic... it can never be destroyed completely." "It simply lives on in other forms." "Magic survives." "I visited the barn where the urn was destroyed, collected its remnants grain by grain... painstaking process." "And I must say... the effort paid off." "When I escape, there will be a terrible price to pay." "Don't worry." "The dust won't last long, just long enough to get what I want." "And, uh, you see," "I don't have to betray everyone in Storybrooke." "Just you." "And, I'm afraid..." "Emma Swan." "Hands off." "That's me lunch and dinner." "Sorry, friend, but I need to pick your brain." "And I need you sober as friar Tuck on a Sunday when I do it." "I'm not sure Sunday's ever made any difference for that man." "What's happening?" "Regina needs our help." " This book." " Funny." "You were never much the reading sort, Robin." "It's not mine." "I stole it." "Ah, well, that sounds more like you." "So, what's so important about a book?" "Whoever wrote this imbued it with magical powers... powers that could change Regina's future for the better." "We need to figure out who did this." "Information about the writer of a magical book." "I might just have an idea." "Excellent." "But I'm gonna need me lunch and dinner back." "See, you ain't been in this town as long as I have." "There wasn't always magic, but when it came, it started at one place..." "the Clock Tower." "See, for 28 years, them hands didn't move." "Time stood still." "Then one day, tick-tock, it bloody did." "I'm afraid you've lost me, will." "I understand the significance of the magical clock, but what's that got to do with this book or its author?" "Do you know what's under that magical clock tower?" "No." "A library." "Hmm." "I've always liked that picture." "Emma has your eyes." "She has your smile." "Do you remember when you took it?" "How could I forget?" "That was the party we had at granny's after Emma helped us go up against..." "Pan or Anton the giant?" " Try Cora." " Oh." "We invited happy to that?" "I guess it's easy to lose track." "She has saved Storybrooke a lot." "Mm-hmm." "I'm worried about her, too, but Emma is tough." "She'll be fine." "What if she's making a mistake?" "Because of us..." "shouldn't we be out there trying to convince her not to give up her magic?" "Well, it's her choice, not ours." "She knows we support her, no matter what, and if losing her magic is what she wants, well... maybe it's not such a bad thing." "But it's part of who she is... a savior." "I mean, she was born this way... a hero." "So isn't embracing that the right thing?" "Well, if the Snow Queen is doing all this because of Emma's power, maybe..." "Getting rid of it is the heroic thing." "Do you remember the night Emma was born?" "Before we put her in the wardrobe, you said we had to give her her best chance." "Maybe now her best chance is for her to be..." "Normal." "We can't let anyone see us." "Ingrid could have eyes and ears everywhere." "Of course, not literally." "That would be gross." "And unhygienic." "Though she does have skeletons in her closet." "Because we did just find Hans in her closet." "And his body does contain a skeleton." "Aah." "Okay, that was a close one." "Let's go." "You're not going." "Elsa." "Is what Ingrid said true?" "That our parents went to Misthaven to find something to take away my magic?" "It is." "Sorry, Elsa, I should have told you the second I got back home." "I just..." "I didn't know how." "I don't blame them." "When people look at this painting, they see a king and a queen." "But the only thing I see is mama and papa." "They were only human." "They made mistakes." "If they could see you today," "I bet they would never ask you to give up a part of yourself." "But they're not here." "And we'll never know." "What matters is that your powers make you special." "And I wouldn't want you any other way." "I've tried this one before." "Probably easier when I'm not drunk and getting punched." "It's a pin tumbler with six pins." "Not the easiest." "With a bit of luck and a light touch, the old will Scarlet..." ""Opening hours till 10:00."" "Very generous." "Indeed." "I can keep sitting here pretending to read about Wolverine, or you can talk about what happened with Emma." "Nothing to talk about." "Can I at least look at the wound?" "Not that I don't trust the ice doctor's diagnosis." "Okay, fine." "Does that hurt?" "A little." "Not anymore." "All better." "It must be nice to have magic and be useful." "What's that supposed to mean?" "I went out there to help her, but I couldn't do anything because I'm just..." "Ordinary." "Henry." "We are each given our own gifts." "You have the heart of the truest believer." "You brought us all together." "Never think you're ordinary just because you don't have magic..." "Or claws or..." "Ripped purple shorts." "Now, don't worry about Emma." "She's a hero, and, as we both know..." "Heroes always win." "Crocodile?" "!" "Where are you?" "!" "Emma." "No." "No, no, no." "Swan, it's Killian again." "You have to listen to me." "I know that you've been to see Gold." "I saw what you did." "And if he's promised to get rid of your powers, don't listen to him." "He doesn't want to help you." "He wants... he wants to collect your powers in a bloody magic hat." "And when he does, you'll be sucked in, too." "I-I don't know what he's planning, but I know that he's been lying to Belle." "The dagger he gave her is a fake." "I only know all this because... because I'm afraid I've been lying to you, too." "Gold blackmailed me into helping him." "He knew." "He knew I'd do whatever it takes to be with you, and he used it against me." "I just wanted to be a better man for you, Swan." "But I failed." "And now because of it, I might lose you." "I'm sorry." "But I hope you never forgive me because that means that you'll get this in time to save yourself." "Goodbye."
