Once Upon a Time: 7:15am

Ahh Once. One of my favorite shows. Let's dig in.

Mary Margaret is rushing to get out the door. She even brushes her teeth in the kitchen sink, spit, rinse, and off. She needs to get to school to help the kids with their volcano. She winds up at Granny's diner to be there by 7:15am because that is when David comes in to get coffee to go for him and wifey. She is all nonchalant about it until Emma walks in and catches her. They have a moment.

Meanwhile, the motorcycle stranger is talking to Henry outside his house. Henry asks 101 questions about his box and he refuses to answer. Queen/Mayor is not having this. Who is this strange man? She even enlists Emma to help her find out, saying that he was talking to Henry.

Emma confronts him at the diner. After she agrees to have a drink with him he shows her his box. It is an old fashioned typewriter and he is a writer. Could he be the one who wrote the fairy tale book? Imagine that. He knows how the stories end. Maybe that's why Regina wants him out. A really amazing part is when Emma says to Regina that she casts the spell according to Henry's book and she doesn't bat an eye.

Mary Margaret finds a lonesome dove stuck in a cage and brings him into the pet shelter to get looked at. She is told he needs to find his flock to be happy. So she ventures into the storm to let him free, slips on a muddy rock and hangs from her death. David and followed her and saved her. Does she rejoice in this? No. She lets the bird find its flock and refuses David's loved for her, even after they both admit they both go to the diner at 7:15am to see each other! Super cute.

She runs into his wife and Regina at the supermarket as Kathryn is buying a pregnancy test. Meanwhile, after Snow slips that info to David he finds out she is not pregnant. And good, this means they can break up!!

Back in Fairy Tale land, we see Snow White is in the forest awaiting the delivery from red and her basket. She cannot stop thinking about the prince in that world either although she hears the wedding will be in 2 days time. Back at the castle, the King tells prince James to forget about his heart and marry into Midas' family. Instead he writes a letter and give it to a dove (same dove, yes?) to send to Snow saying to meet him at the castle if she loves him. She heads off to the castle but gets caught be his guards. They throw her into the dungeon and she is cellmates with Grumpy.

He became Grumpy after being had by a diamond dealer and losing love. His dwarf friend STEALTHY (um really?) breaks him and Snow out. They try to escape and get caught. They kill stealthy but Snow saves Grumpy. They take snow to the castle where the king tells her to say goodbye to her prince or he will kill him. Since this was never really his son at all (remember he is the twin). She does what he asks and says she doesn't not love him and walks out in tears. Grumpy and the other dwarfs adopt her and bring her home with them. This is how she became Snow White and the seven dwarfs. Before this all happened she made a deal with rumple. She promised him her hair if he gave her a potion that would make her forget her love. Grumpy promised she wouldn't need it, but walked in one day to find out she swallowed it and does not remember the prince. The prince broke off the wedding and went to find her, but couldn't. I am assuming this is how we end with the poisoned apple and true loves kiss.

Back in Storybrook, Mary Margaret tries her very best to avoid running into David and he does the same only to see her. They talk about this on the side of the diner and then end up kissing. My heart melted. Of course, Regina was watching as her eyes narrow.
