'''Season 2, Episode 12''':
!In the Name of the Brother

[[quoteright:300:http://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/212EpisodeTitlecard_110.jpg]]

Dr. Whale is tasked with mending Hook’s wounds and performing surgery on the stranger whose car crashed upon entering Storybrooke, but some of the townspeople fear that the stranger may have seen magic -- which could expose their true identities to the world -- and think that leaving him to die would be the best solution. Meanwhile, as Mr. Gold tries to reunite with a despondent Belle, Cora attempts to reunite with her daughter, Regina, and in the land that was, Victor Frankenstein desperately wants to prove to his disapproving father that he can, indeed, bring back the dead.
