LIVE CHAT: Operation Mongoose Parts 1 And 2

[yeswedo]

Welcome to the LIVE CHAT for the Season 4 finale of Once Upon A TIme!

The topic will open at 8pm ET/5pm CT. Once the show is over, we are asking you to take the conversation to the episode topic, located at this link. We'll give you a heads up when it's time to do so, and after we give the signal, further conversation by posters who have finished viewing the episode will be deleted.

The topic will remain OPEN, so if you are in the Mountain Time Zone or the Pacific Time Zone, posting will be allowed during the show time. The topic will be locked effective 1am ET (12am CT/11pm MT/10pm PT).

Again, once you have finished watching the episode, we are asking you to relocate your posting to the episode topic. This will help for posters who have NOT seen the episode, as well as make life a little easier for the mods! As always, our standard posting rules will be in effect; respect and civility are expected from everyone.

Thanks, all, enjoy the show!

 

ETA: To Mountain and Pacific Time Zone watchers, the Eastern/Central Live Chat ends here, if you want to skip it all and not be spoiled.

Buckle up, folks! Here we go!

[Souris]

I'm going to be cleaning my bathroom instead of watching live. Ever since 4x05, I HAVE to have the ability to fast-forward Regina and SQ scenes.

 

May the Force be with you all.

[MostlyC]

East Coast Represent!!

[Mari]

Our World 1966.

With Isaac?

"You don't tell stories people want." 

Since I'm about to spend two hours of my life watching this, sort of hoping that's not true.

[YaddaYadda]

Charles Measure was in the credits.

[Jul 68]

Florida representing.

[Selina K]

I just turned to my husband - 'it's the apprentice,' before he appeared onscreen.  Score one for predictability!

[FormerMod-a1]

MN representing.

[whisperstream]

South Carolina representing.

[Worsel]

This is like the scene in the third Raiders of the Lost Ark where he has to choose the correct chalice.

I guess he chose wisely...

[Rumsy4]

It's like the John Locke/Richard Alpert in LOST.

[YaddaYadda]

Are we doing that?

 

NYC representing then!

[Jul 68]

Your wand has chosen you, Harry.

[Selina K]

Lol, the pen he chose was the same one I had for guests to sign my guest book at my wedding.  I am totally the author - though if I was I would write this better ...

[Minneapple]

MN representing.

My native Minnesota!

 

Repping Pennsylvania now, though!

[Mari]

So, Disney is officially an author, then?

[FormerMod-a1]

I want to believe!  

 

... whoops...  wrong show.

My native Minnesota!

 

Repping Pennsylvania now, though!

 

And I lived in PA for 3 years!

[SilverShadow]

NY! And it is the year Disney died.

[Worsel]

Its August here to save the day!

[Rumsy4]

August has become a little too Yoda like haha

[Watt]

So is that the year Walt died?

[FormerMod-a1]

August is alive and still a grown man!

[Mari]

So, why didn't we let any of the nonfairies out of the hat before now?

[FormerMod-a1]

Wow, the Blue Fairy actually used magic.

[ParadoxLost]

Convenient,  They need the dagger to get the Faeries.  Not necessary for the Aprentice.

[Mari]

How does he know what's going on?  He's been all hatted for all of the Isaac out of the book stuff.

[YaddaYadda]

Things are going quickly.

[SilverShadow]

I was amused by the double-take the Apprentice gave Hook. Poor Hook.

[Jul 68]

Mari, as others say: This Show:These Writers (TS:TW).

[Worsel]

So Isaac was a rejected author in our world and I guess that explains why there are so many messed up episodes and contradictory plot lines in the past few seasons?

[Selina K]

Oh, CT represent, we're small and um, heavily taxed ... 

[YaddaYadda]

Convenient,  They need the dagger to get the Faeries.  Not necessary for the Aprentice.

Yeah, but rumple is the one who was that Oxford Professor and he had the Chernabog released at the same time.  I can give them a pass on that.

[Watt]

Man I'm behind you guys by like a half a minute! Lol

[ParadoxLost]

I was amused by the double-take the Apprentice gave Hook. Poor Hook.

 

I thought his double take was for Emma.

[Mari]

So, leave my memories of Baelfire, but fake'em up for me?  Bwhahaha.

 

Also, I'll be representing a Northern Plains state tonight. :)

[ParadoxLost]

The Apprentice is wearing old guy version of Emma's outfit.

[YaddaYadda]

Not all that bad so far.

[ParadoxLost]

Commericals....Space Command turn the channel.

[YaddaYadda]

So, leave my memories of Baelfire, but fake'em up for me?  Bwhahaha.

This is Rumple for you though.  I don't know if I should facepalm or say "don't ever change you SOB"

[Jul 68]

Umm. Why does Isaac look so surprised? I know. I know.

The Apprentice is wearing old guy version of Emma's outfit.

LOL!

[YaddaYadda]

So Hook finds the book in Henry's school bag while Henry runs upstairs to look for it?

 

plot point, I'm guessing.

[Rumsy4]

Maybe the Book will go with Hook to the AU

[Jul 68]

Commercial side note: Is revenging a word?

[mjgchick]

Miami representing... I don't claim Flordia.

"Mom, dad, Killian watch Henry." To late.

[Watt]

Thank God for DVR. I think I'm gonna like this finale. I like it already. Oh and Indiana here. Yay!

[ParadoxLost]

Empty crib.  I wonder if Snowflake is going to show up.

[Selina K]

It's like Night of the Comet.

[prospazzinator]

Oooh 28 Days Later? Will there be rage zombies?!

[FormerMod-a1]

So... even the author doesn't care about Henry?
