Sunday Catch-up

Over the past weekend, I have been catching up on my television. I will spend the next week catching up on my posts, as there a lot of reruns this week. I am now caught up on ONCE UPON A TIME. There have been five episodes so far.

101 (Pilot) - This is the pilot episode of the story.  The wedding of Snow White and Prince Charming is interrupted by the Evil Queen,  who threatens the kingdom with an evil curse.  Following this, Geppetto and Pinocchio build a cupboard with will allow one person to escape the curse when it comes.  They put there daughter, Emma, in the cupboard when the curse comes.  All of the people of the kingdom are transported to Storeybrooke, Maine, and have no memory of there other life, except the Queen who is now know as Regina, and is the town mayor.  in the episode Emma, now 28, is tracked down by a ten-year-old boy who claims to be her son Henry who she had given up for adoption.  Regina is his adoptive mother.  Emma brings him back to the town, as he tells her his belief about the town and its inhabitants.  Emma decides to stay for a while, after a run in with some of the residents of the town.

102 (The Thing You Love the Most) -  Regina spends most of the episode trying to get Emma out of town as she sees her as a threat for Henry's affection.  In the kingdom, the Evil Queen spends most of the episode preparing to release her curse.  She tries using the heart of her favorite horse and a lock of hair from the five most evil characters of the realm, but it does not make the powerful enough.  She goes to Rumplestiltskin, who tells her that she must cut out the heart of the one she loves most.  This turns out to be her father, who also happens to be named Henry, which we learn when she puts a black rose on his grave. Rumplestiltskin, who is known as Mr. Gold in Storeybrooke, is the one who help to organize Henry's adoption in the past.

103 (Snow Falls) - In this episode we learn the original of how Prince Charming and Snow White met.  Prince Charming is the nickname that Snow White gives him, but his real name is James.   Snow White is a thief, who steals from the Prince who is riding in a carriage with another woman.  In Maine, Snow White is know as Mary Margeret Blanchard, and is Henry's teacher.  Prince Charming is a man who is unconscious in the hospital under the name John Doe.  Mary reads to John Doe, and he touches her arm.  He wakes up later in the episode, leaves the hospital, only to be found near a bridge by Emma and Mary, and the sheriff.  they bring him back to the hospital to be met by Regina, who has found the man's wife, who tells them that his name is David Nolan.  This women is the same as the one that James was riding with in the carriage.  Emma feels that Regina is hiding something, and decides to take Mary up on her offer to stay with her, neither of them realizing that they are mother and daughter.

104 (The Price of Gold) - This episode gives the backstory of Cinderella.  Instead of being granted her wish by her Fairy Godmother, she is granted her wish of attending the ball by Rumplestiltskin, who killed the godmother.  He tells her that all magic has a price.  At the her engagement party to the prince, he tells her that he requires her first born.

I am also caught up on CSI: MIAMI.
