Line 15:
* Why Rumpelstiltskin and Belle are the [[Fan-Preferred Couple]]. Their true love has yet to overcome their external faults and conflicts, (Rumpel's a coward, and Belle will not love him while he's inflicted with a curse.), which leads to a romance that audiences can identify with as something more real and raw because despite our best intentions our personal demons and flaws can ruin our chances of romantic happiness and familial success.
* Rumpelstiltskin has a chance for redemption and becoming a good man through and through in Storybrooke with Belle being alive and well. Learning Regina not only knew she was alive but kept her from him in both worlds will make Mr. Gold want to give Emma any help she can to get rid of Regina. And like in Regina's other plans this will come back to bite her in the end.
* Lycanthropy seems to be very closely related to menstruation in this story. Red started transforming at age 13, right about the time most girls start having periods. For a double dose of [[Bad Movie Beatdown
* The story of Red Riding Hood takes on a different interpretation with the reveal. Red comes home as a young child to Granny starting to transform. This is also about when Red herself transforms for the first time. The woodsman (the wizard in Granny's telling) was near by and turned them back. Thus the wolf 'eating' granny is Red becoming like her while the cutting of the two from the belly of the wolf is about transforming them back.
* Ruby is friends with the mechanic. Who is apparently the woodcutter of Hansel and Gretel. There was supposed to be a woodcutter in her story too.
Line 44:
*** Hmph. Henry was keeping Emma's savior status secret from Regina but in "An Apple Red as Blood" she somehow knew. Regardless, her conversation with Gold in a previous episode, asking about his obtaining of Henry for her, made it clear she didn't know there was anything special about Henry when she got him.
*** Agreed. Regina wanted a child and Mr. Gold provided one. As part of his Chess Master behavior, he looked around and found the child of Emma as the perfect child to bring to Regina as it will bring Emma to town and more than likely take Regina down.
* Mr. Gold is [[Bored
* Why is Snow White a teacher in Storybrooke? The Evil Queen wants her to suffer, due to the connection of teachers and apples, and we all know why Snow White doesn't like apples...
* Henry has a lot of ''[[
** It's also a ''massive'' [[Getting Crap Past the Radar|middle finger]] when it comes to Regina's [[New Media Are Evil|idea to get him hooked on video games]] so that he doesn't pay attention to fairy tales. ''TRON'''s an Internet Age fairy-tale.
* Henry's [[Genre Savvy]] might just save him when it comes to the (poisoned) apple turnovers. The sleep of living death traps the victim with their regrets. Henry's a kid and has a conscience that's clearer than anyone's on the show. He hasn't got a lot to regret at all.
* Running away from your responsibilities to an island of pleasures, only to be abruptly and horrifyingly transformed? Don't you know what they say about what happens to people who don't learn from their mistakes, {{spoiler|August}}?
** [[Pinocchio (Disney film)|They make a jackass of themselves...again]].
* August is a writer. Writers tell stories. {{spoiler|"Telling stories" is often used as another way to say "lying." What is Pinocchio famous for?}}
* Massive brilliance from the season 1 finally. {{spoiler|Gold explains to Emma that he hid his last bit of bottled True Love in "the belly of a beast", and Regina adds that it's an old friend trapped in a different form}}. I wondered who it could be, but a cut over to Fairy Tale Land quickly lead me to put two and two together. {{spoiler|Maleficent is the version of the villain from Sleeping Beauty used because of the added bonus she comes with - she can turn into a dragon (a beast)}}.
