Once Upon A Time-Episode 2 Recap

Finally! A day off and I should be studying but, as usual, I am procrastinating by eating leftover tootsie rolls from Halloween and listening to music (Comme Un Enfant by Yelle and No Hay Nada Más Triste Que Lo Tuyo by Hidrogenesse are this mornings picks). Anyway I feel a a need to report on Sunday's episode of Once Upon a Time, which I watched last night after work, glass of Cava in hand.  I really, really want to like this show but I found myself dubious again during this weeks episode. We find ourselves back in Storybrooke  where the Evil Witch/Mayor has ripped the final pages out of Henry's fairy tale book. Henry, who, ok, is so far the best actor on the show, has come up with a plan called Operation Cobra to trick the queen? Overthrow her? Something. Meanwhile back in fairy tale land the Evil Witch is storming around trying to make HER DARKEST CURSE YET. Personally, I think that if your darkest curse is transporting everyone to a land where they don't remember all the bad crap that happened to them and they are wealthy and successful you need to work on your EVILNESS levels a bit. Anyway, she tries the curse, using the heart of her trusty childhood steed but it doesn't work. She goes of to visit Rumpelstiltskin (Robert Carlyle-of course because where there is a semi-evil yet creepy bad guy there is Robert Carlyle) who is in some sort of makeshift prison thing. He tells her that she has to use the heart of the thing she loves the most (her dad) and she mopes around about how Snow White has taken everything from (part of me is like WHAT EVERYTHING? And another part doesn't care at all). So far the Evil Witch's henchmen have not been very evil, they just seem like a weird circus team who are all "doing the very evil curse will make you EVIL",  and not seeming to notice that she is the villain in this show. Of course, she cuts out her dad's heart and we get a close up of his grave and learn that his name, too, is Henry? What can this mean?! Meanwhile back in Storybrooke Emma Swan and Mayor the Witch feud away by...chopping down apple trees? This show is going too much with the apple imagery and too little with the CRAZY. The gist is they each get a point in the feud and the Mayor gets a visit from Old Rumplestiltskin who is all " I have a secret" and she's like "my dad was named Henry and my son is named Henry--WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?" Annnd Fin. You know what? This show isn't bad but please, please let something really weird happen next week. That is all.
