12[[folder:Season 1]]
13[[AC:Episode 1 - Pilot]]
14* It's only there for a few frames but you can see one of the kids giving Mary Margaret a fruit, not the traditional apple however but a pear, knowing her story such a minute detail becomes rather funny.
15* Emma has a panic attack when she hears that Henry is the son she gave up. Here's this collected woman we just saw stop traffic during her job, and now a little boy's reduced her to taking a minute away from him.
16** Also, how Henry immediately makes himself at home.
17** Henry, in the middle of a trip to take his mother back home so she can save the residents from The Dark Curse, asks whether they can stop for food. Middle of a rescue mission and the kid's first thought is "I'm hungry."
18* Rumplestiltskin sees through the ruse to have Snow White and Charming in disguise right away. And giggles about it all the way.
19* Leroy "[[StepfordSmiler puts on a smile]]" before leaving jail for an unknown reason with a frown right back on his face. All the more hilarious since we know he's really Grumpy (the mood and the dwarf).
20* Granny's reaction to finally having a customer who wants ''a room''!
21* When the bail-jumper Emma is after flips the table at her, a little wine spills on her dress. The look on her face is a lot less "Really? He's running away?" and more "Damn it, this was a brand new dress!"
22* The Blue Fairy brings in the Enchanted Tree and says it's their only hope. Cue Grumpy's rather understandable response:
23-->'''Grumpy:''' A ''tree''? [[YouHaveGotToBeKiddingMe Our fate rests on a ''tree''?]]
24
25[[AC:Episode 2 - The Thing You Love Most]]
26* Graham's {{Adorkable}} attempts to flirt with Emma.
27-->'''Graham:''' Ah, so you've decided to stay.\
28'''[[DeadpanSnarker Emma]]:''' Observant. Important for a cop.\
29'''Graham:''' It's good news for our tourist business, bad for our local signage.\
30'''Emma:''' ...\
31'''Graham:''' ...It's a joke... [[DontExplainTheJoke because you ran over our sign]]?
32** And then later in the episode, he shows up at her hotel room.
33--->'''Emma:''' Oh, hey there. If you're concerned about the Do-Not-Disturb signs, don't worry, I've left them alone.
34** "I'm afraid, Miss Swan, you're under arrest. ''Again.''"
35** When Emma denies having argued with Archie, Graham [[DeadpanSnarker sends some of her characteristic snark back at her]]:
36--->'''Graham:''' I was shocked too, given your shy, delicate sensibilities.
37* Rumplestiltskin, in order to give Regina the reason why the curse failed the first time, asks in demand to be well off in the new world, AND that she'll do whatever he says if he ever says, "Please." It's just how he's so jovial about it that makes it so funny for what's a pretty childish request.
38** Particularly the little giggle in his voice when he says, "Please."
39*** This pays off at the end of the episode, when he makes her get out of his way by saying "please." Also, the whole scene gets HilariousInHindsight after the audience learns that they went through something similar when Henry was first adopted (in 3x09).
40* Henry's knee jerk reaction to seeing Emma got an Apple [[ArchnemesisDad from his mom.]] "Don't eat that!"
41* Emma goes picking apples. With a [[ChainsawGood Chainsaw]].
42* Regina says she wants Snow White to suffer. Maleficent's response? "It's her wedding night. I doubt she's suffering right now." Yes, Maleficent was a troll ''and'' made a sex joke. This is only Episode '''''two''''' folks.
43
44[[AC:Episode 3 - Snow Falls]]
45* Snow White and "Prince Charming" get properly introduced for the first time. WellExcuseMePrincess is being thrown around all willy nilly. For both parties. Especially when Charming cuts her down.
46* Charming catching Snow in the net:
47-->'''Snow:''' What is that supposed to mean? Are you insulting me?\
48'''[[GentlemanSnarker Charming]]:''' Quite right, my apologies. How dare I cast aspersions at the person who ''robbed'' me!
49* Mary Margaret informs Emma that "John Doe" woke up. Emma gives her best FlatWhat in response.
50* Emma trying to tell Henry to go home:
51-->'''Emma:''' ''[about Regina]'' She's gonna kill me! Then you. Then me again.
52* Snow's opinion of Abigail:
53-->'''Snow:''' The nag with the bad attitude? That's what this is about?\
54'''Charming:''' She's my fiancee.\
55'''Snow:''' ''[amused]'' Good luck with that. You must be getting something impressive to have agreed to that union.
56* Talking about how Emma got started on her job finding people, Mary Margaret asks if she ever found her parents.
57-->'''Emma:''' Depends who you ask...
58
59[[AC:Episode 4 - The Price of Gold]]
60* When Graham offers her a job...
61-->'''Emma:''' Thank you, but I have a job.\
62'''Graham:''' As a bail bondsperson? There's not much of that going on around here.\
63'''Emma:''' I don't see a lot of sheriffing going on here either.\
64'''Graham:''' Well, here's your chance to see it up close. ...There's dental.
65* "What's with the siren?" "It's so hard to get your attention."
66* Cinderella's Fairy Godmother shows up and promises her that she will be able to go to the ball...and then is blown up in a shower of glitter by Rumplestiltskin.
67* Something about Rumplestiltskin bending over to allow Cinderella to use his back as a flat surface to sign her contract. It's the visual oddity of the thing.
68* Henry plays the classic "I just wanted to spend time with you" card on Emma.
69-->'''Emma:''' Oh, that is just not fair.
70* Henry's reaction to encountering Mr. Gold at Ms. Blanchard's place.
71-->'''Mr. Gold:''' ''[jovially]'' Ah, Henry, how are you?\
72'''Henry:''' ''[[[DeerInTheHeadlights deer-in-the-headlights look]]]'' ...oooookay.
73** Especially funny because Mary Margaret had a similar reaction. [[spoiler:[[LikeFatherLikeSon Like Grandmother, Like Grandson.]]]]
74* Henry hiding in Emma's car's backseat and jumping out when she is going to find Ashley. [[spoiler:Doubly hilarious when it turns out Emma met Henry's father when she stole the yellow bug and it turned out Neal was hiding in the car's backseat.]]
75* Henry and Emma's conversation after Mr. Gold leaves.
76-->'''Henry:''' Do you know who that is?
77-->'''Emma:''' Of course I do.
78-->'''Henry''' Really? Who? Cause I still haven't figured it out.
79
80[[AC:Episode 5 - That Still Small Voice]]
81* [[{{Adorkable}} Emma and Graham's]] [[DeadpanSnarker dynamic]] doesn't alter much after she accepts the job either.
82-->'''Emma:''' A tie? You know you don't need to dress a woman as a man to give her authority.\
83'''Graham:''' So you think you can get people do what you want in that red coat?\
84'''Emma:''' I'm getting you to do what I want right now. ''[crumples and tosses the uniform shirt]''
85* The Blue Fairy greeting Jiminy:
86-->'''Blue Fairy:''' I hear your wish. ''[{{beat}}]'' You do not have to wish it so loudly.
87* Jiminy going along with his parents' scheme, speaking in a bored tone of voice. Although the situation quickly turns dark, Jiminy sounds...pretty much like someone who's recited the same lines a hundred thousand times would sound.
88-->'''Jiminy:''' ''[dully]'' Oh my God, you're going to die, you need elf tonic.\
89'''Jiminy:''' There is no extra.
90
91[[AC:Episode 6 - The Shepherd]]
92* When Mary Margaret is weighing the pros and cons of running away with David, she mentions that Regina won't like it. Emma then matter of factly says that that's all the more reason to do so.
93** Also, just prior to this, when Mary Margaret comes into the sheriff's station and needs privacy to talk with Emma, Graham excuses himself. How? "I'll just go and...patrol my office."
94
95[[AC:Episode 7 - The Heart is a Lonely Hunter]]
96* Emma, razzing Mary Margaret for making the mistake of calling Whale back after their one-night stand; Mary Margaret's excuse is that she's never had one before. She then gets Emma back by calling her on her issues with men and commitment ("the floral abuse says otherwise").
97* '''Henry:''' (to Graham) "You kissed my MOM?!"
98** The irony is he's kissed ''both'' moms.
99** Actually a little more than kissing which adds to the humor and horror.
100* A feverish Graham is surprised by Mr. Gold who has been doing some "gardening" (actually digging/burying something--it turns out later to have been the Dark One's dagger--while still clad in his suit and equipped with his cane) in the forest, and stammers that he thought he (Gold) was a wolf.
101-->'''Mr. Gold:''' Ah, did I forget to shave today?
102* Snow White escapes the Huntsman the first time.
103-->'''The Huntsman:''' You have good instincts.\
104'''Snow:''' [[PreAssKickingOneLiner And you have too much armor.]] ''(bitchslaps him)''
105* Regina, while wearing a stunning black gown, stating that she knows the time for mourning is over--she's just found that black suits her.
106
107[[AC:Episode 8 - Desperate Souls]]
108* Emma reacts [[{{Understatement}} poorly]] to being fired from the sheriff's office. Somehow Mary Margaret stumbles upon a scene that involved loud music, alcohol and a broken toaster. For clarification: the toaster was ''not'' broken before Emma put on the loud music and started drinking the alcohol.
109* Mary Margaret's reaction to Mr. Gold showing up at her apartment.
110-->'''Mary Margaret:''' ''[deer-in-the-headlights look]'' I'll let you two talk. ''[scampers out]''
111* Mr. Gold is a veritable [[IncrediblyLamePun goldmine]] of these.
112-->'''Emma:''' ''[entering Mr. Gold's antique shop]'' Gold? You in here?\
113'''Mr. Gold:''' ''[sotto voice]'' [[DeadpanSnarker Well]], it ''is'' my shop.
114** ''This'' exchange is [[Tropers/CopperTop1 my]] favorite:
115--->'''Regina:''' Are you ''really'' planning on running against me?!\
116'''Gold:''' No, not ''directly''.
117* After Emma saves Regina from the fire, Sidney comes running up with a camera and takes their photo for the next day's paper. The annoyance on Regina's face is priceless.
118
119[[AC:Episode 9 - True North]]
120* The Hansel and Gretel episode has the Evil Queen spying on Snow White and the dwarves for a second. She mutters "She's cavorting with ''dwarves'' now? When did ''that'' happen?" It's the voice that sells it; it's like she's watching a reality show and missed an episode.
121* In the same episode, this verbal exchange between Emma and Regina, when Emma gets called to the drugstore and sees Henry.
122-->'''Emma:''' Henry. What happened?\
123'''Regina:''' Miss Swan, must I remind you that genetics mean nothing? You are not his mother and it's all taken care of..\
124'''Emma:''' ...I'm here because I'm the [sheriff].\
125'''Regina:''' Oh, that's right. Go on, do your job.
126** What sells it is Regina reciting the entire thing like she's reading an instruction manual.
127
128[[AC:Episode 10 - 7:15 AM]]
129* Mary Margret's "We're building a volcano," as if it's the most important thing in the world.
130* Emma and Regina discussing August.
131-->'''Regina:''' There's something about him. Something familiar.\
132'''Emma:''' Must be one of the untold millions you cursed.\
133''[beat]''\
134'''Regina:''' [[FlatWhat What.]]
135* Mary Margaret insisting that she is most definitely not a [[StalkerWithACrush stalker]].
136* We find out both Snow White and her daughter met Grumpy the same way: neighboring jail cells.
137* There is something darkly funny about the fate of Stealthy, the Eighth Dwarf. Oh, so ''that's'' why we've never heard of him...
138* Snow asks Rumple what he needs with her hair. His response? "What do you need of it now it's been plucked from your head?"
139* Emma and August talking in the coffee shop:
140-->'''Emma:''' You're suspicious.\
141'''August:''' Sitting here, out in the open, drinking coffee. *{{beat}}* [[DeadpanSnarker I wonder what kind of hell I would have raised if I'd ordered a doughnut.]]
142
143[[AC:Episode 11 - Fruit of the Poisonous Tree]]
144* How completely blasé the Genie is when he is summoned from the lamp.
145** He runs through the rules of wishes in the bored tone of someone who's had to give this spiel ''way'' too many times.
146** And the {{Adorkable}} awkward laugh that the King gives when he can't think of a first wish. Followed by the Genie groaning as if thinking, "Oh, great, one of ''those''."
147* Emma yet again is bad for Storybrooke's signage.
148
149[[AC:Episode 12 - Skin Deep]]
150* Rumplestiltskin is giving Belle a list of chores to do and she's agreeing to all of them pretty much automatically. Then he lists skinning the pelts off of the children he hunts, which causes her to drop the teacup she was polishing in shock. He then tells her he was [[IWasJustJoking just kidding]]. Doubles as NotListeningToMeAreYou
151** Later that episode, Gaston shows up and Rumple promptly turns him into a rose and hands it to an unaware Belle, who [[GroinAttack trims it a bit]] and sets it in a vase.
152** And this line:
153--->'''Belle:''' Why do you spin so much?\
154'''Rumplestiltskin:''' I like the wheel. It helps me forget.\
155'''Belle:''' Forget what?\
156''[{{beat}}]''\
157'''Rumplestiltskin:''' I guess it worked! *giggles*
158** And this, with the curtains.
159--->'''Belle:''' What did you do!?! Nail them down!?!\
160'''Rumplestiltskin:''' ...Yes.
161** Rumple's adorkableness after he catches Belle: ''Hmm, sunlight for first time in months, oh wait'' oh wait ''holding Belle'' holding Belle ''put down now oh god this is awkward she felt nice no stoppit''!!!
162* The florist business named [[Series/GameOfThrones "Game of Thorns]]".
163* Rumplestiltskin's over-the-top offended face when Belle's father calls him a beast.
164** Also, the strange, excited "nyah!" noise he makes when Belle agrees to go with him.
165* Rumplestiltskin's smirk as he delivers his terms to Belle's father;
166-->'''Rumplestiltskin:''' I'm not looking for ''love''. I'm looking for a caretaker, for my rather large... ''estate''.
167* Retroactively funny, Mr. Gold casually runs into David Nolan in the checkout line at the convenience store and they discuss his love life. What's he buying? Duct tape and rope to abduct Moe with. Just how casual he is about the situation.
168* Gold's reaction to being left alone in jail with the Evil Queen while Emma and Henry go out for ice cream: "Bring me back a cone?"
169** It's his expression that really sells it.
170* When Belle chips the cup, she's immediately apologetic about it. Rumplestiltskin responds "Well it's just a cup" in his best "Why are you fretting? I have like ten thousand of the things just lying around" voice.
171* Regina planting the idea of having Belle kiss Rumple to remove his powers.
172-->'''Regina:''' [[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial I would never suggest a young woman to kiss a man who's held her captive.]] [[HardTruthAesop What kind of message is that?]]
173* The fact that, while the scene is sad because Rumple thinks Belle is dead, when Regina tells him "You should get a new girl," you can see that he's thinking "can't kill her; need her for the curse and to find Bae. File: ''Kill the Bitch'' away for later and make it painful and gruesome."
174
175[[AC:Episode 13 - What Happened to Frederick]]
176* This conversation between Emma and Mary Margaret
177-->'''Emma:''' I'm not your mom.\
178'''Mary Margaret:''' Well, according to Henry, I'm yours.
179* August invites Emma to go for a drive on his motorcycle. Granny, watching the exchange remarks, "If you don't, I will."
180** Later on, when they arrive at the magic well, August talks about the magic properties of the well, and says that he knows all this for one simple reason.
181--->'''August:''' I read the plaque.
182* After the town finds out about Mary Margaret's affair with David, someone spray-paints "Tramp!" on her car and she is exasperated, wondering who would do such a thing. [[BrickJoke Towards the end of the episode]], we casually see a used can of red spray paint in [[EvilIsPetty Regina]]'s desk drawer.
183* Regina's face when Kathryn says her marriage was like an illusion.
184* When Charming is shown Frederick's fate and hears the problem, he tries to suggest True Love's Kiss, but does so in the same manner one would suggest medication for allergies or something.
185
186[[AC:Episode 14 - Dreamy]]
187* When Nova is surprised that Dreamy's only a year old: [[ComicallyMissingThePoint "I know, I look young for my age."]]
188* Nova tells Dreamy how beautiful the fireflies are, strongly hinting that she wants him to come with her. His response? "[[ObliviousToLove Have a good time!]]"
189* After building up to what looks like Leroy killing himself by jumping off a building above a crowd of people, he laughs the idea off: "You know how much damage I could do? I'm solidly built!"
190* "You're gonna trust a dwarf who got his medical degree from a pickaxe?"
191* Leroy and MM's faces when Leroy lies about the candles and Sister Astrid hugs him.
192* Mary Margaret and Leroy discussing Leroy's love for Sister Astrid:
193-->'''Mary Margaret:''' She is a nun, Leroy! Could you possibly pick anyone less available?!\
194'''Leroy:''' Says the girl who had an affair with a married man.
195* Mary Margaret and Leroy getting doors slammed on their faces. The face she makes at the last was priceless.
196* When Mary Margaret is explaining Miner's Day to Emma:
197-->'''Emma:''' Coal? In Maine? If they were mining for lobster, I'd get it...
198* When Mr. Gold explains why he won't overlook the convent's debt:
199-->'''Leroy:''' ''(stunned)'' You don't like ''nuns''? Who doesn't like ''nuns''?
200
201[[AC:Episode 15 - Red-Handed]]
202* Henry trying to convince Ruby to get a job involving a basket.
203** It's partially the way he keeps tacking on "...in a basket" to every job description and (since we see the screen he's looking at) completely skipping over any job that ''doesn't'' involve one. You can almost see him trying to mentally tell Ruby that she's Red Riding Hood.
204* Granny snarking that Ruby dresses like a drag queen during Fleet Week.
205** "Well, ''you'' dress like Norman Bates when he dresses like Norman Bates' mother!"
206** Cut to August, trying his hardest not to [[{{Corpsing}} laugh,]] showing the writers chose to ThrowItIn.
207* Red and Snow are looking for wolf tracks. First, Snow thinks she's found them, until Red informs her that those are dog tracks, and they're looking for something bigger. Then, Snow thinks she's found them again, to which Red replies, "That... is a ''rabbit''." The bemused look on Snow's face makes this funny in it's own right, but it becomes HilariousInHindsight when you take Ginnifer Goodwin's [[{{WesternAnimation/Zootopia}} other notable role]] into consideration.
208
209[[AC:Episode 16 - Heart of Darkness]]
210* Snow (looking like her old sweet self) is cleaning and humming happily to herself ([[WesternAnimation/SnowWhiteAndTheSevenDwarfs "With a Smile and a Song"]]) and it looks like she's made friends with a bluebird... [[MoodWhiplash then she starts swinging her broom at it]].
211** It's a GilliganCut from the previous scene where Mary Margaret says "I couldn't hurt anyone".
212* "I will always find you." ...''Punch''.
213* Oddly enough, this moment:
214-->'''Snow:''' You'd be willing to die for me?\
215'''Charming:''' ''[with an arrow in his shoulder]'' Does it look like I'm making this up?
216* The following exchange:
217-->'''James:''' Name your price.\
218'''Rumple:''' How about your cloak?\
219'''James:''' My cloak? Why would you want my cloak?\
220'''Rumple:''' It's drafty in here. ''[sniffs it]''
221* Snow White's intervention had many moments.
222** In response to Sneezy's allegation of her bringing flowers despite his allergies: "You are allergic to ''everything''!" Her facial expression and gesture is what really sells it.
223** Happy driven to the breaking point by Snow White's bitchiness. "Look what you're doing to Happy!"
224** Hell, just the fact that ''Snow White'', of all people, had an intervention.
225* Charming sees a [[NakedPeopleAreFunny naked knight]] he tells him to put his hands up. When he turns around, Charming changes his mind and gives him a blanket.
226--> “Charming:” Put your hands where I can see them (the knight turns around) uh…uh.. second thought don’t.
227
228[[AC:Episode 17 - Hat Trick]]
229* After Emma hits Jefferson with a telescope.
230-->'''Emma:''' Crazy son of a bitch.
231* The look of dull annoyance on Jefferson's face when he and the Queen exit the Looking Glass. Especially when the Caterpillar starts blowing smoke in their faces.
232-->'''Jefferson:''' I hate Wonderland.
233* More a funny visual than anything, but the Queen's old woman disguise looks like Rumplestiltskin in drag.
234
235[[AC:Episode 18 - The Stable Boy]]
236* "Henry, I left the code book at home!" "...She's getting in the shower and the keys are under the mat."
237
238[[AC:Episode 19 - The Return]]
239* The pink, heart covered, glitter saturated card bearing the immortal words: 'We're so glad you didn't kill Mrs. Nolan.' Courtesy of Mary Margaret's class of ten-year-olds.
240* "Mr. Gold? Are you here for the rent?" "Why does everyone always ask that?"
241* Emma describes August as "a typewriter wrapped in an enigma wrapped in stubble."
242* Much of Gold's conversation with Archie when he thinks [[spoiler:August]] is his son.
243-->'''Archie:''' A son! I didn't know you had a son. Ah, how old is he?\
244'''Gold:''' Let's start with something easier.
245** And:
246--->'''Gold:''' I think he might still be very angry.\
247'''Archie:''' Well, anger between a parent and child is the most natural thing in the world.\
248'''Gold:''' I think he might be here to try to kill me.\
249'''Archie:''' ...That's... ah. That's... not.
250* The exchange with Bae and Rumplestiltskin when it's revealed Rumplestiltskin murdered the maid was darkly hysterical. It's the expressions that really sell it.
251-->'''Rumplestiltskin:''' What's to be afraid of?\
252'''Bae:''' Dad. There's a stain on your boot.\
253'''Rumplestiltskin:''' ''[hastily tries to conceal the obvious blood stain]'' Ah... yes... ''[beat]'' We need to find a new maid.\
254'''Bae:''' [[CallingTheOldManOut Oh, gods no!]]\
255'''Rumplestiltskin:''' She heard us talking about the knife! she could have told somebody!\
256'''Bae:''' [[VillainBall She was mute!]]\
257'''Rumplestiltskin:''' Well... Even a mute woman can still draw a picture!
258
259[[AC:Episode 20 - The Stranger]]
260* Henry tells Emma what he has to say has to be kept very secret. She asks why he's telling her at Granny's. "I'm hungry."
261
262[[AC:Episode 21 - An Apple Red as Blood]]
263* Regina's nightmare about the townspeople getting their revenge on her. Her silent meal with Henry at the start is just full of awkwardness, and Regina is just shooting a sort of glare at Henry as he eats, followed by a strange smile. Then it gets weirder as she's apprehended and tied up outside by the people of Storybrooke, all of whom are acting in an over-the-top manner, screaming about vengeance. [[FunnyBackgroundEvent You can see MM / Snow sporting a really sinister look behind Emma]], it's quite jarring coming from a character we're used to seeing as so friendly.
264** There's something hilarious about Archie, Jiminy Cricket, tying Regina to a tree and yelling "I"m sorry your majesty, but my conscience is clear!" in the most murderous way possible. It's funnier that I'm making it sound.
265* [[BlackComedy Grumpy to Red]]: "You have a little ''[[ImAHumanitarian someone]]'' on your chin."
266* The various interactions between Gold and Regina:
267-->'''Regina:''' My tree is dying. Why?\
268'''Gold::''' [[DeadpanSnarker Perhaps it's your fertilizer.]]
269* Henry dramatically [[HeroicSuicide bites the cursed apple turnover]]. For a moment, nothing happens and [[DeadpanSnarker Emma]] says, "You want some ice cream to go with that?" Sure, things got much ''much'' worse, but for a moment it was pretty funny.
270* Regina trolling Snow after she storms the castle to rescue Charming only to find a magic mirror instead of him.
271-->'''Regina:''' I have to stop you right there. I am not in the mood to clean tongue marks off my mirror.
272* Chances are, someone's first thoughts when thinking of "modernized Snow White" would be 'The Evil Queen makes an apple turnover'. This episode confirms those thoughts in a rather funny and quirky matter.
273
274[[AC:Episode 22 - A Land Without Magic]]
275* "I was saving it... for a rainy day." "Well, it's storming like a bitch. Where is it?!"
276* The fleeting OhCrap look on Emma's face when Regina reveals that the person she owes a favor to is ''Rumplestiltskin.''
277* The look of [[OhCrap sheer pants-shitting terror]] when Emma first sees a ''dragon''.
278** And a moment later, she says "Screw this", drops her [[AncestralWeapon father's sword]], and shoots the dragon. [[GunsAreUseless It doesn't work.]]
279*** Given ''whom'' said dragon actually is, did you think it '''''would'''''?
280* There's something funny about the fact that Emma literally ''fought a dragon'' trying to save Henry, and it turned out all she had to do was kiss him.
281[[/folder]]
282
283[[folder:Season 2]]
284[[AC:Broken]]
285* Henry calling David/Charming 'Gramps' is both hilarious and adorable, what with the [[OlderThanTheyLook apparent age difference]].
286** The fact that Snow ''cackles'' when he does it.
287* Charming tells his wife "don't push it" in talking to their daughter. Cue Snow coming out saying "We need to talk", and Charming lowering his head in exasperation.
288* Snow realizing that she treated her daughter like a best friend.
289-->'''Snow:''' ''[to Emma]'' We talked about a lot of things...including some we shouldn't have. One-night stands and the like.\
290'''Charming:''' One-night stands?\
291'''Snow:''' With Doctor Whale.\
292'''Charming:''' ''WHALE?!''\
293'''Snow:''' We were cursed! And that is neither here or there!
294** Particularly since her tone of voice is the same casual tone one would use when talking about being drunk or youthful. In this case, it fits since the FTW people are also used to talking about true love in the same way.
295** Dr. Whale is ''[[spoiler:Dr Frankenstein.]]'' Talk about a CrackPairing.
296** Made funnier in that Charming still hasn't let it go by "The Doctor", where he greets Whale by punching him in the face.
297*** He's ''still'' not let it go as of ''The Black Fairy'' as he writes off Granny's as a place for [[spoiler:Emma and Hook to marry]] due to not all their memories there being "good", and brings up Whale.
298*** Charming gets a repeat performance with Hook. It's under not quite so funny circumstances but Hook saves it with his almost exasperated 'I kinda do deserve that now can we get to the important stuff' look he gets.
299* When a frantic Jiminy runs up and tells the Charmings and the dwarves that Dr. Whale is stirring up an angry mob to go kill Regina:
300-->'''Grumpy:''' Great, let's watch.
301** Also [[HilariousInHindsight funny]] that it's Whale leading the angry mob of villagers when in a later episode we find out he's [[spoiler:Dr. Frankenstein]].
302*** Guess it makes sense that he'd know ''how'' to lead an evil mob then...
303* Regina gets into [[EvilIsHammy Evil Queen mode]] and makes a MagicalGesture. The mob cowers in fear right before they realize that her powers still don't work. Regina has an OhCrap [[{{Beat}} moment]] before the mob resumes the attack.
304* Emma trying to explain to Snow White and Charming that whenever she imagined meeting her parents, she NEVER expected them to be around her own age or that they're '''the''' Snow White and Prince Charming.
305** Also her plan of dealing with this news:
306--->'''Emma:''' [[INeedAFreakingDrink Can we talk about this later? Like over a glass of wine, or several...bottles.]]
307** This exchange:
308--->'''Gold:''' I made a promise to someone that I won't kill you.\
309'''Regina:''' Who could illicit that from you?\
310'''Gold:''' Belle.\
311'''Regina:''' She's alive?\
312'''Gold:''' You are a dreadful liar.
313* Gold's reaction to Emma, Charming, and Snow's accusations against him:
314-->'''Gold:''' Well, that is quite a litany of grievances, now isn't it?
315* His brief snarking at Belle, even if it results in her being more pissed off than she already was:
316-->'''Belle:''' I thought you'd changed.\
317'''Gold:''' What? In the hour you'd known me?
318
319[[AC:We Are Both]]
320* While trying to calm down a town meeting, Red realizes that her grandmother is carrying a crossbow.
321-->'''Red:''' Granny, do you really need that?\
322'''Granny:''' We've got a lawless town, Ruby, damn right I need it.
323** Ruby's tone implies that she's less annoyed at her grandmother bringing the crossbow and more asking "can ''I'' have one?"
324* Jiminy/Archie approaches Regina at her home to try to talk to her. Regina stares at him for a moment as if she's not quite sure what he's doing, before saying, "Oh, right, the conscience thing." It's particularly funny because, with her tone of voice, it's impossible to tell if she meant A) that 'listening to your conscience' is Jiminy's thing B) that she just remembered what a conscience was C) that Jiminy himself is 'the conscience thing.'
325* At the makeshift Storybrooke crisis center, everyone comes to Charming with legitimate concerns, like where Mr. Gold is and if Regina has her powers back. [[HandsomeLech Dr. Whale]], however, asks: "[[SkewedPriorities Are the nuns still nuns or can they y'know...date?]]" He also adds: "[[SuspiciouslySpecificDenial Don't say it's me asking!]]"
326* Henry tries to assure Charming that in the book "Things always look worse right before there's good news." Cue Grumpy running in yelling "Terrible news!"
327-->Archie: Coming back doesn't fix it?
328-->Grumpy: If it did, would I have run in yelling TERRIBLE NEWS?!
329* [[{{Adorkable}} Teenage Regina's]] first attempt at pronouncing Rumplestiltskin was kind of hilarious.
330** And Rumplestiltskin trying to determine why she summoned him.
331--->'''Rumple:''' You want power? Destroy your enemies? ''[{{beat}}]'' Destroy your friends?\
332'''Regina:''' I don't want to hurt ''anyone!''\
333'''Rumple:''' Hard to believe you're from the same family...
334*** The fact that Rumple's third thought is "destroying your friends" is both hilarious... and terribly worrying.
335** His appearance in the mirror behind Cora, and his 'just shove her in' gesture, were also pretty funny.
336** Also, Rumple mentioning how he'd held her when she was a baby. Making rocking motions with his arms while telling her she was "smaller" and "''more portable''".
337* Rumple meets with teenage Regina after she's shoved Cora into the mirror. He has an *enormous* shit eating grin on his face and the way he's standing is evidently him being so proud that, ''finally'', Cora is gone.
338* Snow White actually kneeing Sleeping Beauty in the gut so that she and Emma can escape, and Mulan taking Snow down with a bolo. Who knew Disney Princesses could become so violent?
339* Charming bursts into Gold's shop, not long after Regina did the same thing. Gold: "It appears when I bought that 'closed' sign, I was just throwing my money away."
340* This.
341-->'''Rumple:''' [[TakeThatScrappy So simple, even David Nolan could do it.]]\
342'''Charming:''' ''[glare]''
343* When talking about the hat as a possible way to get to Emma and Snow, Jefferson's reaction to David asking if he could "get it to work."
344-->'''Jefferson:''' If you only knew...
345* Regina's comment to Charming: "I'm not going to take parental advice from someone who put his daughter in a box and sent her to ''Maine''". Even better, the way she says it makes it sound like it being Maine was the worst part.
346
347[[AC:Lady of the Lake]]
348* The look Red gives Charming at the beginning of "Lady of the Lake".
349-->'''Charming:''' We said we were going to take the kingdom back, and we can't do that with our tails between our legs.\
350'''Red:''' ''[DeathGlare]''\
351'''Charming:''' ...No offense.
352* Emma gives Aurora her jacket, since Aurora is even less prepared for the forest than Emma. Aurora has never seen a leather jacket before.
353-->'''Aurora:''' ...what kind of corset is this?
354* This is part heartwarming and part hilarious. [[spoiler:On their wedding day, Snow finds out she's not cursed and that she is capable of having children.]]
355-->'''Snow:''' We're going to have a child!\
356'''Charming:''' [[FlatWhat What.]]\
357'''Snow:''' We're going to have a child!\
358''[beat]''\
359'''Charming:''' Is there something I need to know?
360* From "The Lady of the Lake".
361-->'''Snow:''' Just how close is this army? ''[cue arrow hitting the table]''\
362'''Charming:''' I'd say pretty close.
363* While Snow and Lancelot are discussing the events of the curse and their lives since then, Emma is seen making faces at the amount of food at the table, sampling them and decides that she likes what's offered.
364* Emma's reaction to hearing that they're eating Chimera, which is part lion, part serpent, and part goat.
365-->'''Emma:''' Like Turducken...?
366* Mulan says "Have you ever seen an ogre?" Emma replies "Pretty sure I've dated a few."
367* [[FunnyBackgroundEvent Snow rolling her eyes at Mulan's description of an ogre.]]
368
369[[AC:The Crocodile]]
370* [[spoiler:Belle]] goes missing. Gold gets Charming to help find her.
371-->'''Rumple:''' Can I ask you a question about you and Mary Margaret? How... How does that work?\
372'''Charming:''' Are you asking for ''dating'' advice!?!\
373'''Rumple:''' ''[{{beat}}]'' [[BlatantLies Course not. No.]]
374** There's also something funny regarding how he seems to have harmed ''literally everyone'' in town in the past.
375--->'''Charming:''' Do you remember turning a butcher into a pig?\
376'''Rumple:''' [[ButForMeItWasTuesday Can't say that I do]].\
377'''Charming:''' Well, he does. It was his father.
378** And when Ruby offers to help find Belle:
379--->'''Gold:''' You can smell her?\
380'''Ruby:''' ''[DeathGlare]''
381* "[[ShoutOut Sparkly]] [[Film/PiratesOfTheCaribbeanDeadMansChest dirt]]. Wonderful."
382
383[[AC:The Doctor]]
384* Dr. Whale turns up at Rumple's [[spoiler:with his arm in an icebox.]]
385-->'''Rumple:''' When they say I charge an arm and a leg, it's a figure of speech.
386** Rumple's big price for [[spoiler:healing the arm? Getting Whale to admit that he needs magic.]] What are you, six years old?
387*** Even Whale seems to realize this given the positively massive eyeroll he does.
388* It ''seriously'' stops being funny by the end of the episode [[spoiler:where Regina comes to Archie in tears because she used magic to MercyKill Daniel]] but, at the time, Regina's "[[AddictiveMagic I haven't used magic in two days]]" comment to Archie induced a few giggles because of the delivery of the line and the hilarity of Jiminy Cricket acting as the Evil Queen's shrink.
389* Rumplestiltskin dealing with Jefferson, after the latter gets him some mysterious crystal ball instead of what he actually wanted.
390-->'''Jefferson:''' Do you still want it?\
391'''Rumple:''' Nnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnnn... yes.
392** Part of it comes from the typical overly dramatic/hammy gestures and posturing he does while making the "nnn" sound.
393** Listen closely, and you can hear Rumple demanding [[Film/TheWizardOfOz Dorothy's ruby slippers]] and whining when Jefferson says that she left before he could get them.
394* Jefferson asks Regina for a royal passport, allowing him to move about her kingdom freely. When Regina asks how she could do that, Jefferson says "Well, you're the Queen aren't you?" Apparently Regina forgot about that country that she ruled.
395* While Regina is lost in thought, Jefferson sneaks up behind her and starts talking just to make her jump. He's clearly having a good time Trolling this insecure young queen, and Regina's startled yelp is priceless.
396* Henry talking to the horse.
397-->'''Henry:''' Is there anything you want to tell me?\
398'''Horse:''' ''[shakes head]''
399* Charming punching Dr Whale in the face for having a one night stand with Mary Margaret last season, and the exchange that follows;
400-->'''Whale:''' What the hell was that for?\
401'''Charming:''' Sleeping with my '''wife!'''\
402'''Whale:''' ''[[ComicallyMissingThePoint Kathryn?]]''\
403'''Charming:''' Snow!\
404'''Whale:''' Look, I didn't know alright, I was cursed!\
405'''Charming:''' [[HypocriticalHumour Yeah I got it...]] ''[[[MoodWhiplash cheerfully]]]'' So, what do you want?
406* Rumplestiltskin going "dead is dead" it's just the way he said it.
407* Frankenstein says "His condition is ideal, apart from being dead."
408
409[[AC:Tallahassee]]
410* The {{Narm Charm}} of a bad tempered, scary giant with the face of sweet, cuddly Jorge Garcia. [[spoiler:Though less so when we see his {{Hidden Depths}}.]]
411* Emma's attempt to explain the different versions of "Jack and the Beanstalk" that have been created over the years. "And there was a golden goose. Or a harp."
412* "I stole a [[CrossesTheLineTwice stolen]] car?!"
413* Only one of them (Aurora, Snow, Mulan and [[spoiler:Emma]]) can go with Hook up the beanstalk.
414-->'''[[HandsomeLech Hook]]:''' [[CatFight Go on. Fight it out. Don't be afraid to... you know...get really into it.]]
415* HilariousInHindsight: Hook describes the last remaining giant as [[TheDreaded the strongest and most fearsome one of all]]. We find out in "Tiny" that he's an {{Adorkable}} [[{{WesternAnimation/The Little Mermaid|1989}} Ariel]]-{{Expy}} who was often made fun of by his brothers for being so small.
416* Neal: "I might be a pervert, but you're ''definitely'' a car thief."
417
418[[AC:Child of the Moon]]
419* "I ''may'' have left [[ShipTease Belle]] [[WhatHappenedToTheMouse chained up in the library...]]"
420* David, Ruby and Granny, while Granny is casually welding the freezer into a cage and David is trying to demand they tell him what's going on:
421-->'''Ruby:''' Know anyone who might want 38 frozen lasagnas?\
422'''David:''' ''What?''\
423'''Granny:''' I know! [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Nobody would believe you if you told them my lasagnas are frozen.]]
424* A delightful instance.
425-->'''Belle:''' You have wolf hearing too?\
426'''Granny:''' It's not all it's cracked up to be. Especially when you run a hotel.
427
428[[AC:Into the Deep]]
429* While the circumstances are far from funny, Snow's delivery of "You're under a sleeping curse" to Charming. Rather than the horror she has soon after, she just sounds annoyed that he could be so stupid.
430* Cora sending Emma, Snow and Mulan a message by crow. The crow lands on Snow's shoulder and she is able to translate just five caws into "Give Cora the compass by sundown or she'll kill Aurora." [[UnusuallyUninterestingSight No one questions]] Snow's [[SpeaksFluentAnimal ability to understand birds]] although Emma's does have a "WTF?" reaction.
431** Even better? Cora ''knows'' Snow will be able to translate it, so doesn't even bother sending a letter. Apparently she knows Snow just that well...
432* Emma and Mulan fighting like children when the latter wants to take the compass to exchange it for Aurora:
433-->'''Emma:''' Hey! I climbed a beanstalk for this! You go get your own!
434* Snow flying-tackles Mulan. [[BrickJoke Again]].
435* Even though you know they're talking about [[spoiler:putting Charming under a sleeping curse]] , Rumplestiltskin's line to Regina as he hands her [[spoiler:the cursed spindle]] is brilliant:
436-->'''Rumplestiltskin/Mr Gold:''' Your Majesty? You did his wife. I'm sure you'd like the honors.
437* Gold, Belle, and Granny at the dinner.
438** First, Granny takes a pot shot at Gold with the most annoyed voice and pissed off stance you can imagine.
439--->'''Granny:''' And it's made without dark magic. Oh, and I charge extra for the pickles.\
440'''Gold:''' Of course you do.
441*** Note that when Granny says that line, Mr. Gold is staring into space with an expression that screams "here we go again".
442** Then Gold mentions what he thinks the most powerful magic in our world is, in his opinion: condiments (specifically in this case, ketchup). Whether or not he's joking, it's hard to tell but Belle of course seems suitably impressed.
443** Also Granny's reaction to having Gold and Regina in the same room. Time to shut down the restaurant for public safety!
444
445[[AC:Queen of Hearts]]
446* Regina and Hook's conversation.
447-->'''Regina:''' You remember Claude.\
448'''Hook:''' Can't say that I do.\
449'''Regina:''' You ''killed him'' in the cell block.\
450'''Hook:''' Ah, yes. I didn't recognize him without my hook in his neck.
451* Emma's reaction to [[spoiler:being able to NoSell having her heart ripped out]].
452-->'''Emma:''' ''[in a small voice]'' ...what just happened?\
453'''Snow:''' That is an ''excellent'' question...for once we get home.
454** Also Cora [[spoiler:with her hand stuck in Emma's chest, trying to get her heart out. Cora's WTF? expression is hilarious.]]
455** Just before this, when Cora is drawing Snow and Mulan's attention, her BringIt is basically [[CircleOfExtinction a casual stroll around them]] while giving an "Over here" whistle in the most dismissive and condescending way possible. Who knew one so evil and dangerous could make contempt so funny?
456* Emma's reaction to Snow's revelation (slash poor choice of words) that the thing about Cora's spellbook was that the spells were in the book. It went roughly to the tune of "[[CaptainObvious DUH]]."
457* The scene where Hook and Emma are fighting for the compass makes him say this line:
458-->'''Hook:''' I'd like to do other, more enjoyable things with a woman on her back.
459** And then Emma punches him and knocks him out.
460* Regina and [[spoiler:Emma's]] conversation was delightfully awkward.
461-->'''[[spoiler:Emma:]]''' Your mom... she's... [[{{Understatement}} a piece of work]], you know?\
462'''Regina:''' Indeed I do.
463
464[[AC:The Cricket Game]]
465* Regina insulting Ruby. "Go take yourself for a walk."
466** She gets Doctor Hopper first. "Need I remind you, you got your [=PhD=] from a curse."
467* Emma and Henry come home and walk in on Snow and Charming having some afternoon delight. Henry is oblivious, [[PrimalScene Emma very much isn't.]] Her voice goes up an octave, she starts stammering and the look on her face is priceless.
468-->'''Emma:''' I'm...gonna go make some tacos! [turns around quickly]\
469'''Charming:''' It's impressive that we can still provide her with a few traumatic childhood memories at this stage of the game.
470* Cora and Hook's conversation [[spoiler:when we find out she ''didn't'' kill Archie.]]
471-->'''Hook:''' Well, if that's him, then who did you kill?\
472'''Cora:''' [[BlackHumour How do I know? It's my first day in town.]]
473* Rumplestiltskin's response to Snow White asking why he was in her kingdom:
474-->'''Rumplestiltskin:''' Do you have to ask? I came to witness the Queen's execution. Even had my heart set on a wee souvenir. It's all very disappointing.
475* This exchange between Gold and Emma:
476-->'''Gold:''' Miss Swan, you have your mother's chin.\
477'''Emma:''' We know that you killed him.\
478'''Gold:''' [[DeadpanSnarker And your father's tact.]]
479* Ruby immediately knows something's wrong when Pongo runs up at the cafe.
480-->'''Ruby:''' Emma! Something's wrong!\
481'''Emma:''' How do you know that? Never mind, wolf thing.
482* This bit from the welcome back party:
483-->'''Emma:''' I cannot tell you the relief of cooking something I didn't have to kill first.\
484'''Granny:''' Don't I know it. Meat loaf back home? What a bitch.
485* Emma: "There's only one name on that list who would resort to killing to get what they want." [[GilliganCut Cut]] to [[VillainsOutShopping Gold opening a picnic basket from Belle.]]
486
487[[AC:The Outsider]]
488* A dark example: At [[spoiler:Archie's funeral]], Geppetto says "He's in a better place." GilliganCut to [[spoiler:Archie tied up in the hold of Hook's ship.]]
489* Discussing Snow and Charming getting their own place.
490-->'''Emma:''' But I thought this was what we always wanted! After twenty-eight years, living together under the same roof!\
491'''Snow:''' It is! I just thought it'd be a...bigger roof. [[BigFancyCastle With turrets]].
492* "[[BlackHumour Right]], [[CallBack Claude?]]"
493* While the context isn't funny, the way Gold says "He has to die," when Hook mocks him was oddly hilarious.
494** Part of it comes from the fact that he's saying it less as a threat or warning and more of a See-even-he-agrees-with-me casual sort of way.
495** There's also something funny about the way that Belle grabs Gold's hand at the end of the scene and yanks him away, like he's a puppy on a leash and she's worried that if she lets him go he'll get himself in trouble again. [[MoralityChain She's probably not wrong.]]
496* This troper feels horrible at laughing at it but [[spoiler:Hook randomly getting ran over by a car.]]
497* This exchange between Belle and Hook:
498-->'''Belle:''' How did you...\
499'''Hook:''' I know this ship like the back of my... ''[looks at hook]'' Well, you know.
500
501[[AC:In The Name Of The Brother]]
502* Regina referring to the Charming family as "Emma, Henry and the two idiots".
503** What really makes this hilarious is that she's not talking to them, she's talking to Cora, alone. So she's not being her usual {{Jerkass}} self by insulting them to their faces; it's just ''how she genuinely thinks of them''.
504* Emma gleefully trolls Hook, taunting him about what Rumplestiltskin will do to him and at one point, pretending to punch his fractured ribs to find out where Cora was.
505** Also Hook's constant innuendo about the fun that can be had with handcuffs.
506** And earlier, this exchange:
507-->'''Emma:''' Hang on, your ribs are broken.
508-->'''Hook:''' That must be why it hurts when I laugh.
509** Their entire banter in the hospital, actually.
510-->'''Emma:''' You're awfully chipper for a guy who just failed to kill his enemy, ''then'' got hit by a car.
511-->'''Hook:''' Well my ribs may be broken, but everything else is still...intact. ''(gives her a suggestive look as she rolls her eyes)''
512** Also, just how [[OverlyLongGag long]] they let it play, as if rubbing our faces in the fact that they don't have to pay for any of it.
513* Emma telling Henry that the identity of Whale is "weird" in retrospect, much to Mary Margaret's insistence of the opposite.
514** That entire scene was hilarious, particularly Charming's noise of irritation when trying to hand an excited Henry a spoon, and Emma just resting her head against the table in exhaustion when Henry refuses to let well enough alone.
515** Poor Emma. Discovering the existence of magic, other worlds and her family and closest friends are fairy-tale characters was already insane, but what kind of twisted universe conspired to have Dr. Frankenstein end up in ''[[CrackPairing bed]]'' with Snow White? And if trying to erase that mental image is bad enough, then she remembers that the only therapist in town is Jiminy Cricket!
516** "Rumplestiltskin and Captain Hook had a fight and someone got hurt." "We didn't know if Dr. Frankenstein could fix him but he did." Only on [=OUaT=] could that be said with a straight face.
517*** Plus, Snow's explanation of what happened was such a glossed over, sugar-coated understatement that it was hilarious.
518* "Thank goodness!" "Or me."
519* As tragic as the memory actually is for Ruby, the way she says: "I'm the werewolf. I ate my boyfriend" and the look Whale gives her when she says it.
520* When Whale goes missing.
521-->'''Mary Margaret:''' Maybe Doc could do it!\
522'''Leroy:''' Perform ''surgery?'' ''[bursts out laughing, until he realizes she's serious]'' '''No!'''
523* When Rumplestiltskin gives Frankenstein a whole big heap of gold:
524-->'''Frankenstein:''' Are you a philanthropist?\
525'''Rumplestiltskin:''' Well, I've been called worse. (It's left up in the air as to whether he actually knows what it means.)
526** Just prior to this, when Frankenstein sees Rumple, the only colored being in TLWC.
527-->'''Frankenstein:''' You're a foreigner.
528-->'''Rumplestiltskin:''' What gave it away, my rosy complexion?
529** He introduces himself as "Rumple von Stiltskin."
530* Emma is heading to the hospital to question Greg Mendell with Snow and Charming wanting to tag along. It's a combination of funny and heartwarming as she finally calls them her parents.
531-->'''Emma:''' We're not talking to him as a group. We're not a group sheriff.\
532'''Snow:''' But we've been doing this together.\
533'''Emma:''' We're trying to convince this guy that this place is normal. In a normal town, the sheriff goes in and asks him a few questions. She doesn't bring her parents in with her.
534** ... And then the way she questions Greg Mendell screams MostDefinitelyNotAVillain. Basically, her behavior in that scene was how an [[SmallTownTyrant evil sheriff]] from a TownWithADarkSecret would act.
535** Which is even ironic, when you remember Regina and Graham's attempts to get her gone during the first series. Remind us Emma, wasn't pulling this sort of crap the ''same'' thing you told Regina that only made you want to stay ''more?!''
536* The way Whale casually suggests letting the stranger die and then later on, tells Charming that unconscious patients are a great source of watches, "[[IWasJustJoking Just joking]] [[{{beat}} ...]] as far as you know."
537* This exchange when everyone's at the hospital and they're trying to hack in the Greg Medell's phone:
538-->'''Mary Margaret:''' You can't just guess, there are millions of combinations-\
539'''Ruby:''' Ten thousand.\
540'''David:''' Leroy, can't you, I don't know, hack it?\
541'''Leroy:''' You do know computer hacking and pickaxe hacking are different, right?
542* Charming and Leroy are completely [[SeenItAll blase]] about Dr. Whale, while Snow and Emma are confused.
543-->'''Charming:''' He's been in a rough place since he brought Regina's fiance back to life.\
544'''Snow:''' Daniel?\
545'''Emma:''' Brought back to life?\
546'''Charming:''' Had his arm ripped off and put back on.\
547'''Leroy:''' Cool.
548* Gold being quick to spot the benefits of [[spoiler:Belle's amnesia:]]
549-->'''Charming:''' ''[trying to drag him off Hook]'' She wouldn't want you to kill him!\
550'''Gold:''' I'm a stranger to her now.\
551'''Emma:''' ''[also trying to hold him back]'' Murder makes a bad first impression!
552* The DeathGlare Red gives Leroy when he offhandedly mentions what outsiders would do to a werewolf was hysterical, as was her muttering about Whale's labcoat smelling like booze.
553* At the end, when Mr. Gold marches in, demands Emma to come with him and then says if anything happens to Belle, he will kill ''everyone''. The way he says it makes it hilarious.
554* A bit of BlackComedy, but Belle waking up and screaming as she noticed [[spoiler:someone had just kissed her while she was sleeping]] is probably what some people ([[HilariousInHindsight Maybe even Emma when a similar idea was suggested with David]]) had in mind with TrueLovesKiss working in the real world.
555
556[[AC:Tiny]]
557* The tone of Mary Margaret's voice when she has to tell Anton that Emma, the one human he trusts, happens to be out of town.
558** And how she says that Emma is "''kind of'' out of town." I know she was trying to skirt the issue, but since when are there degrees of being out of town?
559* Anton getting caught in powerlines.
560* Gold's reaction to Emma [[spoiler:calling him her father]] is just priceless.
561** Which is really a case of HilariousInHindsight considering the reveal of the next episode....
562* Gold's reaction to the "taking off shoes" thing at the security at the airport
563-->'''Mr. Gold:''' How terribly uncivilized.
564** As well as Gold's dialogue with a random passenger who manages to piss him off.
565--->'''Passenger:''' It's something pretty simple, mate. Have you ever been on a plane before?\
566'''Mr.Gold:''' Have you ever been [[CaneFu impaled upon a cane]] before? ''[Gold waves his cane before Emma stops him]''
567* Seeing the normally unflappable Mr. Gold being freaked out while getting on a plane for the first time.
568** To say nothing of when the plane is taking off, and poor Rumple's face set in the position of a deadpan "I'm gonna die." Cut to credits.
569* Sometimes [[AristocratsAreEvil George's]] assholishness can be amusing.
570-->'''Prince James:''' ''[happily]'' Father! This is--\
571'''King George:''' ''[in the driest tone possible]'' I don't care.
572* Anton meets Prince James and Jack. "My name's Anton. [[CaptainObvious I'm a giant]]."
573* This exchange, especially Regina's tone of voice:
574-->'''Regina:''' You lost a giant?\
575'''Hook:''' Well, a shrunken giant.
576* When Regina meets Anton, who is human size and defenseless, he shouts "Stay back or I'll kill you!" The way he says that threat is just ''so'' weak and empty that Regina's response is to burst into laughter.
577* Anton's older brother says that humans are evil, which is why the giants no longer trade beans with them. Anton then asks [[ArmorPiercingQuestion "Why do we keep growing them if nobody ever uses them?"]] Awkward silence ensues.
578* This conversation:
579-->'''Charming:''' If anything happens to them...\
580'''Mr. Gold:''' Then you'll what? Cross the town line? And David Nolan will hunt me down in his animal rescue van?
581* This conversation, especially considering it's going on while they're being chased by a giant:
582-->'''Grumpy:''' So let me get this straight. You got a twin brother?
583-->'''Charming:''' Yeah.
584-->'''Grumpy:''' His name is James?
585-->'''Charming:''' Right.
586-->'''Grumpy:''' Well, your name is James.
587-->'''Charming:''' No, actually, it's not.
588-->'''Grumpy:''' It's Charming then?
589-->'''Snow:''' No, that's the nickname I gave him.
590-->'''Grumpy:''' Wait, hold on, what the hell is your name?
591-->'''Charming:''' David.
592-->'''Grumpy:''' Your curse name?
593-->'''Charming:''' No, my real name!
594-->'''Grumpy:''' So you're David, James, and Charming, but David's like a middle name?
595-->'''Charming:''' No, it's my name name!
596-->'''Grumpy:''' You know what? I'm gonna call you whatever I damn well please. That okay?!
597-->'''Charming:''' Sure, Leroy.
598
599[[AC:Manhattan]]
600* Emma's frustrated flail in response to [[spoiler:Baelfire insisting that they continue the argument in a bar.]]
601* David's utter shock at learning [[spoiler:Gold's familial connection to Henry]] leads to this:
602-->'''David:''' [[spoiler:Gold is Henry's grandfather]]?\
603'''Snow:''' Yes.\
604'''David:''' But I'm his grandfather.\
605'''Snow:''' ''[in hilariously deadpan manner]'' You can have more than one.
606** After that part, Snow attempts to parse together their twisted family tree, which leads to this comment:
607-->'''David:''' It's a good thing we don't have Thanksgiving in our world 'cause that dinner would ''suck''.
608* FunnyBackgroundEvent: When Henry walks into the room, Gold can be seen in the background [[spoiler:realizing that Neal/Bae is Henry's father, subsequently making Henry his grandson]]. It's pretty much the only funny thing in the scene.
609* [[spoiler:"You left me and let me go to prison BECAUSE PINOCCHIO TOLD YOU TO!?!"]]
610* After the Seer epically expires, having warned Rumplestiltskin of [[spoiler:a boy that will both lead him to his son and will be his undoing - which happens to be Henry, his grandson]] Rumple's matter of fact statement is darkly funny:
611-->'''Rumplestiltskin:''' Well, then I'll just have to kill him.
612* This exchange between Emma and Henry (when they're trying to find Baelfire):
613-->'''Emma:''' ''[pressing the button for Neal's apartment]'' UPS package for 407.\
614''[line disconnects]''\
615'''Henry:''' Maybe you should have said [=FedEx=]?
616* Though it's mostly a serious scene, Neal mocking Rumplestiltskin's mannerisms is pretty funny.
617* Henry's response over the revelations is to [[ScrewThisImOutOfHere jump out a window]]. Don't worry, he got onto the fire escape, but his abrupt leaving could make some people laugh. ''Especially'' if you think that what's going through his mind is the exact same thing his grandparents thought, Thanksgiving and all.
618
619[[AC:The Queen Is Dead]]
620* For some reason, Snow White acting all morose and angry about her birthday with Charming was kinda funny.
621* [[spoiler:Cora's]] disdain for the Blue Fairy's outfit.
622
623[[AC:The Miller's Daughter]]
624* Cora calling Regina's phone tap an enchanted box. With an utterly serious expression.
625** Not to mention the disdainful swat she gives it to knock it on the floor. As if it were something like a crystal ball or potion bottle that would break versus something made of plastic.
626* Emma casually revealing to Baelfire that Belle is "your dad's girlfriend."
627* Cora states "All brides should be snow white," much to the amusement of Rumplestiltskin, who's peeked into her future.
628-->'''Rumplestiltskin:''' When you see the future, there is irony ''everywhere''.
629* There's something amusing about how easily Henry [[GenreSavvy recognizes]] that, since everything is getting serious, he's going to be foisted off to Red's caretaking. Especially since Red herself also seems completely used to it.
630* Cora actually got the Dark One to ''stutter''.
631-->'''Rumplestiltskin:''' That's what you want, eh? You want them to ''kneel''--
632-->'''Cora:''' No.
633-->'''Rumplestiltskin:''' I--no--''What?''
634* And afterwards, he looks at Cora with the biggest WTF face ever.
635* "I can't cast a spell. I can spell 'spell'."
636* Rumplestiltskin on Cora's name: "Not a very pretty name. Sounds like something breaking."
637** Somewhat of BlackComedy since over the course of the episode, she does break and does break something.
638* Emma and Neal prepare to fight off Cora when she gets through the barrier... and then she casually magics them to the woods, where they look around in momentary confusion.
639* "You are not allowed to have opinions about surprises, Mr. [[spoiler:Son-of-Rumplestiltskin]]!"
640
641[[AC:Welcome To Storybrooke]]
642* Having just arrived in our world in 1983, Regina can only give a blank stare when Kurt tells her he's from "New Jersey, home of [[Music/BruceSpringsteen the Boss]]." And then she asks later "Is your wife back in New Jersey, with the Boss?"
643* The very first interaction between real world Granny and Ruby: "When I put over easy on the menu, I was talking about eggs!"
644* Emma's indignation that [[spoiler:Baelfire]] fell for the old "going to the bathroom" trick, from his own son.
645** [[spoiler:Baelfire's]] face when he realizes that Henry pulled a fast one on him.
646-->'''Emma:''' [[GenerationXerox He's YOUR son!]]
647* Regina's EvilGrin as she watches Mary Margaret look after David without knowing who he is.
648* Regina has created a town where she has won, and everyone is completely cowed by her, and so little changes that it's almost a GroundhogDayLoop. It takes her three days to get bored.
649** Compare her two meetings with Doctor Hopper.
650-->'''Archie:''' Beautiful day, isn't it?\
651'''Regina:''' ''[smirk]'' Yes, it is.\
652--\
653'''Archie:''' Beautiful day--\
654'''Regina:''' ''[scowl]'' Save it.
655* And then she goes to Gold for help, and he gets some lovely DeadpanSnarker moments even without his memories.
656-->'''Regina:''' I'm not happy.\
657'''Gold:''' I believe Dr. Hopper's office is down the street.\
658--\
659'''Regina:''' Everyone in this town does exactly what I want them to.\
660'''Gold:''' And that's a problem?
661* Regina's genuine disappointment when she realizes that Gold has no idea what she's talking about.
662* Regina: [[GetOut Now get off my porch!]]
663
664[[AC:Selfless, Brave, and True]]
665* Regina's explanation to Greg for why she hasn't aged. "Monthly juice cleanse."
666* Regina's recommendation to Snow at Granny's diner (the "[[{{Pun}} blackened sole]]"), while VERY dark humor, was still hilarious. EvilIsPetty at its funniest.
667* So how does Snow get over getting Regina to kill Cora? Why rock a bow and arrow while jamming to ''Bad Reputation'' on her iPod. [[SugarWiki/MomentOfAwesome She's pretty good at it too.]]
668** Even funnier when you remember that both iPods and Joan Jett came from our world, not Snow's world. In other words, those are artifacts from her cursed persona, not her original self. ''Mary Margaret'', of all people, is a Joan Jett fan. [[HiddenDepths Go figure.]]
669
670[[AC:Lacey]]
671* Rumple explains why he's torturing Robin Hood.
672-->'''Rumple:''' He tried to steal from me, the Dark One! If you do that you get skinned alive. Everyone knows that!\
673'''Belle:''' Actually, no they don't.\
674'''Rumple:''' ''[{{beat}}]'' Well, they will after they discover the body!
675* Regina tells Gold that TrueLovesKiss won't cure Lacey because Lacey doesn't love him.
676-->'''Gold:''' Then I'll make her!\
677'''Regina:''' Now there's the charm that should woo a lovely young lady.
678* Gold: "I'm not here for the overpriced lasagna." Cue DeathGlare from Granny.
679* Charming gives Gold more dating advice. "Show Belle the man she fell in love with." GilliganCut to Rumple preparing to torture Robin Hood.
680* When Gold gets his date with Lacey, Charming praises him and compares him to Literature/DonJuan. Gold smugly says "Don Juan was nothing before he made a deal with me."
681* Gold's {{Adorkable}}ness during his date with "Lacey."
682* Rumple telling Belle that the pillow isn't to help her sleep, it's to muffle her sobs so he can't hear them. Hilarious {{Jerkass}}ery at its finest.
683* Emma remarking that she would have told Regina about Neal sooner, but she was busy trying to stop her and Cora from killing everyone. Even funnier is that Regina doesn't seem to have a response to that.
684** Before that was Regina's expression when Gold told her, and Gold's remark that "fate has a sense of humour".
685* Crosses over into Heartwarming. The Sheriff of Nottingham offers Robin Hood's whereabouts to Rumple. His price? A night with Belle. Rumple gives the Sheriff a chance to politely change that price. When the Sheriff refuses and insists, Rumple takes the Sheriff's tongue and starts waving it around like it was a ticket stub.
686** Even funnier? Rumple, when the Sheriff has made his offer, turns to look at Belle. The ''absolutely horrified'' look on her face is enough for him to decide.
687** Another heartwarming yet funny moment is when Rumple spares Robin Hood and Maid Marian, then trying to say how he missed and continued to dismiss Belle in a way similar to a {{tsundere}}.
688** As soon as they arrive, the Sheriff knows who Rumple is. Rumple's response. "My reputation precedes me. ''Excellent.''"
689* Neal prefers [[spoiler:August/Pinocchio]] as a kid. Emma thinks it's going to take some getting used to.
690
691[[AC:The Evil Queen]]
692* Emma breaks into Tamara's hotel room and tells Henry, acting as lookout, to kick the door as a signal if anyone's coming. Henry does it as Neal approaches. Neal's reaction? "Aw, hell no! I taught her that. Emma!"
693* Emma talking to Mary Margaret about her suspicions towards Tamara, saying that they should avoid telling Henry. Then Henry [[OffscreenTeleportation pops out of nowhere]]. "I heard everything!"
694* The look on Emma's face once Tamara says that she can trust her. It's made funnier when you consider that the one major flaw to Emma's character just happens to be trust issues.
695* This exchange:
696-->'''The Evil Queen:''' When Snow White is dead, then they will see my kindness.\
697'''Rumplestiltskin:''' Through the charred remains of their homes. Yes, I'm sure that will be perfectly clear.
698* Regina barges into Rumple's castle and demands to know why he didn't come when she called. His reaction?
699-->'''Rumplestiltskin:''' Do I know you, dearie? ''[{{beat}}]'' I already have a maid. Promising girl, actually.
700* Right at the end, Regina inquires what Owen's master plan is in all this.
701-->'''Owen:''' I'm not gonna tell you!
702
703[[AC:Second Star to the Right]]
704* Rumple and Belle are on a date when Charming and Snow interrupt, Charming remarks that it looks like they're having quite a party. (Or words to that effect). Rumple's response: [[DeadpanSnarker "Well, I certainly don't remember inviting you."]]
705
706[[AC:And Straight On Til Morning]]
707* Hook [[spoiler:has a [[ChangedMyMindKid change of heart and comes back]], ready to save the day by stopping Storybrooke from being destroyed....only for Emma to immediately tell him that's old news since Storybrooke's been saved already, they now need him for an entirely different situation. Particularly funny is the casual way she said it.]]
708* David punches Hook. Hook's reaction is priceless.
709-->'''Hook:''' Bloody hell...
710** His response to Charming threatening to kill him
711-->"I'd say threatening to kill me is about a bit redundant seeing as we're all about to die anyway"
712* The dwarves are trying to find Sneezy's beer stein in Gold's shop, because Mother Superior needs it for a spell to recover his memories. Gold points out that he'll get his memories back only to die shortly after. Sneezy was not aware of that detail, but Grumpy insists he needs to spend time with his family.
713-->'''Sneezy:''' If I don't have a family, do I still have to die?
714** Added to the scene is Gold and the dwarves keep pointing out/counter pointing out why he should or should not get his memories. Both sides are clearly fed up with the other. Meanwhile Sneezy is protesting and confused and no one's listening to them (unless it serves their side in the argument).
715* Granny guarding Henry with a huge crossbow was pretty funny. Just imagine your own grandma doing that?
716* After the Lost Boys (who the pirates talk about as a significant threat) bully Hook into letting them search his ship for Baelfire and fail to find him, their leader asks Hook if he knows what the dreaded "He" does to people who lie to him. Since Hook doesn't, the Lost Boy decides to enlightens him in a dramatic tone of voice: "He rips your shadow right from your body. *beat* Riiiiiiiiiip." Immediate cut to Hook trying not to outright smirk and to maintain the facade that he's taking the warning seriously.
717* Belle asks Mr. Gold, [[SugarWiki/HeartwarmingMoments "How will you get back to me?"]] Cut to the whole scene, with [[MomentKiller Charming]] standing two feet away. Mr. Gold sends him a look and he runs off.
718[[/folder]]
719
720[[folder:Season 3]]
721[[AC:Episode 1 - The Heart of the Truest Believer]]
722* Gold changes into his Dark One clothes. Hook says "Oh, that's a great use of our time. A wardrobe change."
723* Charming punches Hook for calling his wife a "slag".
724* Gold greets Felix with a halfhearted, almost sarcastic, version of his trademark gesture.
725** And the mocking tone with which Felix says "Dark One" at the end of the conversation.
726* Felix's greeting to Greg and Tamara:
727-->'''Greg:''' Who are you?\
728'''Felix:''' ''["Duh" tone of voice]'' We're the Home Office!
729* Neal tells Mulan that she's in a movie. She has no idea what he's talking about.
730-->'''Neal:''' Yeah, they actually made a movie about you; it's pretty good.\
731'''Mulan:''' What's a movie?
732** And when she tries to ask a serious question later, he assumes she's still hung up on it.
733** In general, her reaction to being told that people in our world think of Enchanted Forest residents as characters in stories:
734--->'''Mulan:''' I'm in a story?
735* At the end of the episode, Emma gives a dramatic, team-building speech to the group about how they need to put aside their differences and believe in one another. In response to Regina's protests, she admits that there is a lot of "history and hate" between them, prompting Hook to interject:
736-->'''Hook:''' I actually quite fancy you from time to time when you're not yelling at me.
737* Some of Regina's comments are hilarious.
738-->'''Regina:''' ''[gesturing to the mermaid]'' Now can I resume killing her?\
739''[later)]''\
740'''Snow:''' Undo your spell! Bring back the mermaid!\
741'''Regina:''' And what? You'll win her over with your rainbow kisses and unicorn stickers?
742* Young Henry showing his family snark by continuing to poke holes in Greg and Tamara's plans and overall GenreBlindness with their unconditional trust of the "Home Office."
743* "Fillet the bitch!" [[TokenEvilTeammate Oh, Regina...]]
744* While the circumstances are far from funny, Charming's "I will not be capsized by fish!" is hilarious. You don't hear [[ARareSentence a sentence like that]] every day.
745* Robin Hood unconditionally accepts that Baelfire is Rumplestiltskin's son:
746-->'''Baelfire:''' You don't wanna see ID?\
747'''Robin Hood:''' Who would claim to be that if they weren't?\
748'''Baelfire:''' Yeah, good point.
749* The smug look Hook shoots Regina at the end of the episode. Basically "I've been on the team for less then a day, and I'm higher up in the pecking order than you."
750
751[[AC:Episode 2 - Lost Girl]]
752* Hook asks Emma what he's like in the story of Peter Pan. He muses that he must be handsome.
753-->'''Emma:''' Yeah, if waxed mustaches and perms are your thing.\
754'''Hook:''' I take it from your tone that perms are bad.
755* The Magic Mirror gets one in a flashback:
756-->'''Mirror:''' Careful, if you drop me, I'll make sure you get ''fourteen'' years of bad luck.
757** Regina gets one in the same flashback:
758--->'''Regina:''' ''[to Snow]'' [[WhatDoesSheSeeInHim You're marrying]] ''[[WhatDoesSheSeeInHim that?]]''
759* [[ComicallyMissingThePoint "That election was a sham!"]]
760** Even funnier because it really was a sham.
761** "The S word". [[spoiler:Savior.]]
762* When the map leads the group to where they might find Henry:
763-->'''Regina:''' [[spoiler:Peter Pan]]'s here. I can feel his smugness.
764* Grumpy and the dwarves accusing Charming of being a GoldDigger.
765* It turns out [[{{Film/Hook}} that Hook killed Rufio]] [[MythologyGag in this universe too.]]
766* "Is rum your solution to everything?"
767* Rumplestiltskin thought that he'd seen that last of Charming when he helped him wake Snow from the Sleeping Curse. When Charming arrives in Rumple's palace, Rumple reacts with a mix of shock and annoyance.
768
769[[AC:Episode 3 - Quite A Common Fairy]]
770* The opening title card has Tinker Bell fly in, the same way she does in the Disney VanityPlate.
771* In a flashback, Rumplestiltskin's delight at Regina's choice of meal:
772-->'''Rumplestiltskin:''' Roast swan. ''[giggle]'' That's amusing. ''[{{beat}}]'' You'll get that later.
773* Emma notices Regina's reluctance to meet Tinker Bell and asks what she did to her. Regina says "Why do you assume I did something to her?", and Emma responds with a look that says "Um, because you're you?"
774** Even better is that Regina's immediate response is basically "...Yeah, you're right."
775* Emma's exasperated GenreSavvy as she guesses that the fairy Hook is talking about is Tinker Bell.
776* Tink is no slouch herself when it comes to the one-liners.
777-->"Snow White? ''That's'' her name? Even I think that's a bit precious and mine's Tinker Bell!"
778* Although Tink and Regina's reunion is very tense, Tink does get another good one in.
779-->"A complicated history? That's a very diplomatic way of describing things."
780
781[[AC:Episode 4 - Nasty Habits]]
782* Even after everything so far, Emma is still having problems adjusting to being allied with Tinker Bell.
783-->'''Tinker Bell:''' You can call me Tink.\
784'''Emma:''' I'm not really sure that's better.
785* Tink's growing exasperation with the rescue team's lack of an escape plan - especially when Charming goes on about "When it comes to family, we always find a way."
786* The smirk on Regina's face when Tinkerbell reveals that Greg and Tamara are DeaderThanDead.
787* Everyone's confused about a certain item in Bae's old home.
788-->'''Mary Margaret:''' Maybe it's a colander.\
789'''Regina:''' Right, because preteen Neal probably made a lot of pasta.
790** And then when Emma figures it out: "I'm supposed to be impressed that he made a nightlight?"
791
792[[AC:Episode 5 - Good Form]]
793* Regina and Emma's equally appalled reactions to Charming and Snow's BigDamnKiss.
794-->'''Emma:''' Okay. I'm... complaining.\
795'''Regina:''' What I wouldn't ''give'' for another sleeping curse...
796* Hook's reaction to Charming telling him about his twin:
797-->'''Hook:''' There were two of you? I can barely stomach ''one''.
798* Emma, Snow, and Regina are trying to convince the lost boy to help. Regina's idea? She offers him candy. The fact that it doesn't work makes it even funnier.
799* After drinking from Hook's rum bottle, Charming gives it to ''Snow'', who in turn offers it to Regina.
800-->'''Regina:''' I don't do rum.
801* The lead-up to Hook and Emma's kiss.
802-->'''Emma:''' Please, you couldn't handle it.
803
804[[AC:Episode 6 - Ariel]]
805* The opening flashback of the episode, which features Snow cornered by two of Regina's soldiers:
806-->'''Soldier:''' You're a long way from home, Snow White. [[DidYouActuallyBelieve Did you really think]] you could escape from us?\
807'''Snow:''' ''[{{beat}}]'' Actually, yes.
808* Gold reveals that he has an item in his shop that could potentially defeat Pan without costing him his life. Regina says that rescuing Henry is as simple as going to his shop and getting it. His response:
809-->'''Gold:''' [[DeadpanSnarker Crossing realms? Is that all?]]
810* Regina's response to Ariel's accusation of tricking her:
811-->'''Regina:''' You went to a long dead ''octopus'' for help and you're blaming ''me'' for your problems?
812* Regina picks up the magic shell that summons ocean creatures. This exchange ensues:
813-->'''Gold:''' If you're planning to summon a giant squid, I've already tried that.\
814'''Regina:''' Well, you have had fun, haven't you?
815** Shortly after that:
816--->'''Regina:''' I have no intention of ordering calamari.
817* Gold says that mermaids can't be trusted. Regina responds that Ariel can and explains that the two of them have history, prompting this response:
818-->'''Gold:''' Well, that explains the distasteful look in her eyes.
819* Ariel's {{Adorkable}}ness in the human world, like calling a fork a "mini trident" and falling on her face as she walks toward Eric.
820* Ariel asks Snow to keep that she's a mermaid secret. But the way she phrases it makes it awkward:
821-->'''Ariel:''' Can you keep a secret?\
822'''Snow:''' Mm-hmm.\
823'''Ariel:''' [[CaptainObvious I'm a mermaid.]]\
824'''Snow:''' Yeah, I got that.
825* Hook tells Charming and Snow that Neal is alive but tells them to keep it a secret from Emma.
826-->'''Emma:''' Where are you guys going?\
827'''Hook:''' Water.\
828'''Charming:''' ''[at the same time]'' Firewood.\
829''[{{beat}}]''\
830'''Snow:''' Neal's alive.
831
832[[AC:Episode 7 - Dark Hollow]]
833* Happy notes how it's not so bad having all the main characters out of Storybrooke due to all the weirdness they attract, and Grumpy insists things will continue to be quiet when they get back. Then Ariel arrives.
834* Granny objects to Ariel's attire.
835-->'''Granny:''' Maybe you didn't notice the sign. No shirt, no shoes, no service.\
836'''Grumpy:''' ''Now'' you got a dress code? I seem to recall some [[{{Stripperific}} Ruby outfits]] that are seared into my brain.
837* Neal and Hook's dick-swinging contest over using a lighter.
838* When they find the cup in Rumple's office, Ariel remarks that it's chipped. Bell adorkably {{Squee}}s "I know", and Ariel doesn't quite get it.
839* Ariel being a hilarious DamselInDistress.
840-->'''Ariel:''' I don't understand. Why are we doing what they tell us?\
841'''Belle:''' Because he has a gun!\
842'''Ariel:''' ''What's a gun?''
843** Later:
844--->'''Ariel:''' I'm not afraid of you or your gun, and not just because I don't know what it is!
845* Ariel is just an incurable optimist.
846-->'''Ariel:''' Don't worry, I'll be fine. Even after the magic in this bracelet wears off and I lose my legs, I'll still have a chance to be with Eric! As long as he lives near the beach.
847* Regina's comment to Ariel after [[spoiler:Ariel comes back with Pandora's Box and Regina rewards her.]]
848-->'''Regina:''' [[spoiler:Now you can have legs whenever you want. Or fins. [[CasualKink Whatever Prince Eric is into these days]].]]
849
850[[AC:Episode 8 - Think Lovely Thoughts]]
851* The conversation that follows when Rumple takes Hook's sword because Neal has forbidden him from using magic.
852-->'''Rumple:''' You mind if I borrow this? You said no magic. I agreed. But I'm not walking in there with nothing but my good looks.\
853'''Hook:''' Now I, on the other hand...\
854'''Charming:''' Here. ''[hands Hook his dagger]'' In case your good looks fail you.\
855
856* Regina's DeathGlare after Rumple asks her if she remembers how to cast a sleeping spell. After all these years he still thinks of her as his teenage apprentice.
857
858[[AC:Episode 9 - Save Henry]]
859* After learning Henry is Emma's son, Regina confronts Gold about it. And since she thinks he's under the curse, he screws with her by letting her go on what she thinks is an impotent rage against someone who can't understand it. Also, "I'm sure you'll be...a mother of some sort."
860** It ''was'' an impotent rage against someone who couldn't understand it. According to WordOfGod, Mr. Gold didn't regain his memories until he heard Emma's name in the Bed and Breakfast. He really has no idea what Regina is going on about, which in some ways makes the whole thing funnier.
861*** From Regina's point of view, she's just starting to discover how deep and complex Rumple's plans are. From Mr. Gold's point of view, the mayor has just burst in and started shouting at him for no particular reason, probably because she's been losing sleep from raising a child.
862** Also:
863--->'''Regina:''' I want a child, Gold, and I need your help.\
864'''Gold:''' Well, I'm flattered, but uninterested.\
865'''Regina:''' Not like that!
866* John and Michael posing as a gay couple, for which they remain their completely serious selves.
867* After 17 years in Storybrooke, Regina still almost slips up and yells that she's the queen.
868* Regina's expression of utter disbelief after she realises that Mary Margaret has managed to get Henry to stop crying. Immediately followed by Mary Margaret's comically terrified reaction to Regina asking how she did it.
869* Dr. Whale's deadpan reaction to Regina's heightened concern over baby Henry's crying.
870-->'''Regina:''' Well, what about a blood test? A chest X-ray?
871-->'''Dr. Whale:''' Is he a smoker?
872-->'''Regina:''' What?!
873-->'''Dr. Whale:''' Look, it's obvious what the problem is. He's a crying baby.
874-->'''Regina:''' I paid for this?
875-->'''Dr. Whale:''' Actually, your insurance did.
876-->'''Regina:''' What do I do?!
877-->'''Dr. Whale:''' I can prescribe you something. ''(beat)'' Ten [=CCs=] of maternal love.
878
879[[AC:Episode 10 - The New Neverland]]
880* Emma asking if her father has an ulterior motive for pushing her towards Neal.
881-->'''David:''' Like what?\
882'''Emma:''' Like keeping me away from Hook.\
883'''David:''' You think I'm interested in Hook? I'm a married man!
884* Hook calling himself "devilishly handsome" when telling Neal he's giving him and Emma a chance. Leading to:
885-->'''Hook:''' For the sake of the boy... let his parents have a fair shot without a... devilishly handsome pirate standing in the way.\
886'''Neal:''' You serious?\
887'''Hook:''' Yeah. I am devilishly handsome.
888* Hook and Tinkerbell's reactions to Emma asking if there was something "going on" with them. Emma then sounds a little jealous when asking.
889-->'''Tink:''' No!\
890'''Hook:''' Perhaps.
891* Also, Tink's response after being denied her wings back by [[{{Jerkass}} the Blue Fairy.]]
892-->'''Tink:''' ....I need a drink.
893* Ariel being reintroduced to Eric while he's aggressively chopping up fish. The look on Belle's face is utterly hilarious.
894-->'''Ariel:''' Wow, he must really hate me.
895* Ariel going down to the docks to meet Eric again in Storybrooke...in ridiculously high platform heels. The girl who didn't have ''legs'' yesterday is trying to pull those off without killing herself.
896* Almost a blink and you'll miss it moment: Hook stopping Sneezy from sneezing by holding his hook under his nose.
897* Regina's assessment of [[TakenForGranite stone Charming]]?
898-->'''Regina:''' I can barely tell the difference.
899* When Charming mentions that Snow can go to the summer palace with "her new husband," a bit of RealLife due to Ginnifer Goodwin and Josh Dallas getting married.
900* Tinker Bell confronting Hook about flirting with her. She tells him nothing is ever going to happen between them as she knows he is in love with Emma and wants a "distraction".
901'''Tink:''' I may have lost my wings but not my dignity.
902
903[[AC:Episode 11 - Going Home]]
904* Maybe it's because Hook is one of the few that hasn't [[spoiler:suffered the effects of the curse before,]] but all he can say as [[spoiler:the curse]] approaches is...
905-->'''Hook:''' Can you stop it? Or will we all have to start preparing our souls? Because mine's gonna take some time.
906* Apparently Henry has a vain streak. After the discovery of the bodyswap...
907-->'''Henry:''' When we find Pan, remember that he's in my body. So, if you have to throw a fireball or something, at least avoid the face.\
908'''Rumplestiltskin:''' ''[beat]'' I'll do my best.
909* Hook tries to kiss Emma in an attempt to [[spoiler:bring back her memories after the erasure of Storybrooke from time]], and she responds [[GroinAttack accordingly]]... by kicking him in the balls.
910-->'''Hook:''' Long shot. I was hoping you felt as I did.
911
912[[AC:Episode 12 - New York City Serenade]]
913* [[ShipperOnDeck Snow White's blatantly obvious, gleeful shipping]] of Regina and Robin Hood and Regina's response.
914-->'''Snow:''' He's kinda cute, huh?\
915'''Regina:''' He smells like forest.
916* Regina again keeps the show from getting too sugary as everyone starts cooing over Aurora's pregnancy: "She's pregnant, but I'm the one who feels sick."
917** Her first line to Little John: "Show some respect. And some restraint at the buffet table."
918* Hook after Emma bails him out of jail in NYC:
919-->'''Hook:''' I've been in my share of brigs but nothing as barbaric as these. They force fed me something called baloney.
920* Emma's [[DisposableFiance Disposable Love Interest]] turning out to be [[spoiler:a flying monkey]]. And Emma's reaction.
921-->'''Emma:''' [[AudienceSurrogate Really?]]
922* A quick, subtle moment, but when Hook crashed her date and sat down at the restaurant table, Emma's first reason is to ''grab a butter knife and turn it on him''. This is the daughter of Snow White and Prince Charming. One can't help but wonder just what damage she could ''actually do with said knife.''
923* Henry meeting Hook for the "first" time:
924-->'''Henry:''' Why are you dressed like that?\
925'''Hook:''' Why are ''you'' dressed like ''that''?
926
927[[AC:Episode 13 - Witch Hunt]]
928* Emma and Regina come up with a plan to smoke out the person who cast the second Curse. They need some information to be spread as fast as possible...
929-->'''Regina:''' I know just who to tell.\
930''([[GilliganCut cut to]] Grumpy bursting into the diner)''\
931'''Grumpy:''' '''''BIG NEWS, EVERYBODY!!!'''''
932* Hook mentions "the monster" that Emma was going to marry. This ensues:
933-->'''David:''' [[ComicallyMissingThePoint You were going to marry someone?]]\
934'''Hook:''' Did you miss the part where I said "monster?"
935* Emma ''still'' hasn't caught on that ''every'' fictional character is real somewhere, with her sarcastically suggesting the Wicked Witch is behind everything. The look on Regina's face is ''hysterical.''
936-->'''Emma:''' Seriously, she's real too?\
937'''Hook:''' [[HypocrisyNod Says the daughter of Snow White and Prince Charming.]]
938** To be fair, it's less not believing, and more exasperation over yet another book's villain readying herself to make her life miserable again.
939* "[[ItMakesSenseInContext Wouldn't be the first flying monkey I've dated.]]"
940* Upon Regina saying they're dealing with "the Wicked Witch," Grumpy asks her to specify about East or West. Then argues that it's a pretty pertinent point, given they'll need either a bucket of water, or a house dropping from the sky.
941* Regina's glorious line, when Snow White protests heading into the Wicked Witch's castle because she has flying monkeys:
942-->'''Regina:''' I don't care if the lollipop guild is protecting her.
943* Regina finds the perfect reason to keep on living: "I have someone to destroy!" Particularly the way her face lights up with glee is somehow both creepy and hilarious.
944* Snow and Emma's StereoFibbing when Henry asks how they know each other; they manage to get around to them being cell mates, leading to this line:
945-->'''Henry:''' [[WhatAreYouInFor What were you in for?]]\
946'''Snow:''' ...bandit-ry?
947** Then when Henry asks if they know his father, David practically yells across the diner that they're ready to order to change the subject.
948* David's comment after Regina says she's never met the Wicked Witch.
949-->'''David:''' This isn't a personal vendetta? Shocking.
950* After Little John [[spoiler:turns into a flying monkey]]:
951-->'''Charming:''' What the hell was that thing?\
952'''Whale:''' Don't look at me. [[ImADoctorNotAPlaceholder I'm a doctor, not a vet.]]
953* When asked "he turned into a flying monkey!?", Hook's response is this:
954-->'''Hook:''' Yes, [[CaptainObvious he took on simian form with the added bonus of wings.]]
955* Emma finds Regina in her office after [[spoiler:Regina fakes a FaceHeelTurn and Emma fakes blaming her for the new curse.]]
956-->'''Emma:''' An earthquake!?!
957-->'''Regina:''' I had to make a statement.
958* Regina and Zelena/the Wicked Witch's first meeting is hilarious. For starters, Zelena has stolen a dress of Regina's in her absence, which is pretty darn funny itself, and then this exchange happens:
959-->'''Regina:''' That's my dress!
960-->'''Zelena:''' I had to take it in a little bit at the hips, but it looks better on me, don't you think?
961** And then there's Regina's reaction to [[spoiler:Zelena revealing that they're sisters.]]
962--->'''Regina:''' That's not possible. You're green.
963
964[[AC:Episode 14 - The Tower]]
965* Hook suggests they find the Wicked Witch by looking for someone with green skin, only for Regina to point out that thanks to the curse she'll look like everyone else.
966* Regina's response when Emma suggests checking her office for clues to where the Wicked Witch went, and persists that there could be physical evidence when Regina says she already checked magically.
967-->'''Regina:''' If you want to waste your time playing ''Nancy Drew'', be my guest.
968* Hook, three times in Regina's office.
969-->'''David:''' You guys see anything?
970-->'''Hook:''' Other than an austere sense of design, nothing.
971** A bit later, when David identifies the red stain on the floor as holly berries.
972-->'''Hook:''' Were you some sort of botanist in this life, mate?
973** And when David receives a text from Mary Margaret about meeting Zelena.
974-->'''Hook:''' A bit demanding, isn't she? ''(Emma shoots him a dirty look)'' I meant the midwife.
975* And Hook ''again'' when Emma says she'll have Regina drop Henry off at the cafe.
976-->'''Emma:''' I'd love to see those flying monstrosities get past Granny's crossbow.
977-->'''Hook:''' And her lunch special.
978
979[[AC:Episode 15 - Quiet Minds]]
980* Hook offers to stay and protect Belle. Belle, quite understandably, objects.
981-->'''Belle:''' You do know he tried to kill me.\
982'''Killian:''' Oh, there were...extenuating circumstances.\
983'''Belle:''' ''Twice.''\
984'''Killian:'''*beat*.....*beat* "Sorry?"
985** Including that hilarious face Killian puts on when he says "This will be my way of making it up to you."
986* Hook offering Neal green Jell-O which he gathers "has great medicinal properties." Gets even funnier when you find out this is a reference to a second season DeletedScene where after ending up in the hospital thanks to being hit by Greg's car, he first encountered the dessert.
987* When Neal and Emma are talking together in the woods, and she reveals [[NeverLiveItDown yet again]] that she had been in love with another man [[spoiler:who turned out to be a Winged Monkey]]. Neal tries very hard not to laugh, just calling it "intense" until she tells him it's okay to laugh.
988-->'''Neal:''' I almost married [[spoiler:a minon of my evil grandfather Peter Pan]], so I know what you're saying.
989
990[[AC:Episode 16 - It's Not Easy Being Green]]
991* A lovely exchange between Zelena and Rumplestiltskin:
992-->'''Zelena:''' You're Insane\
993'''Rumplestiltskin:''' Besides the point.
994* A number of their exchanges are hilarious, actually; when he notices the green on her skin is spreading, Rumple snarks that she "might want to get that looked at" and when he reveals that she can't cast the Dark Curse because the thing she loves most is him, he spends a few moments talking about how women can't resist him so it's understandable.
995* Hook shows Henry how to navigate.
996-->'''Henry:''' What's this?\
997'''Hook:''' That, my boy, is a sextant. It's a tool used by sailors to navigate.\
998'''Henry:''' Like a GPS?\
999'''Hook:''' [{{Beat}}; he clearly has no idea what a GPS is] Aye.
1000* When Zelena comes for her confrontation with Regina, Sneezy accidentally is in her path.
1001-->'''Zelena:''' Out of my way, Munchkin.
1002-->'''Sneezy:''' [[InsistentTerminology I'm a dwarf.]]
1003-->'''[[PoliticallyIncorrectVillain Zelena]]:''' That's even worse.
1004
1005[[AC:Episode 17 - The Jolly Roger]]
1006* When Ariel shows up, she's not up on current events in Storybrooke:
1007-->'''Snow:''' Where have you been? We thought you'd been turned into a monkey!\
1008'''Ariel:''' A monkey? No, I'm a girl that turns into a ''fish''!
1009* It's not shown, so one can only imagine [[spoiler:Ariel and Eric's confused reactions to Eric's cloak randomly coming out of the sea to find him]].
1010* David trying to be "cool" and taking Henry [[spoiler:to learn to drive... ''on a busy street'']]. Followed by the mayhem we were all expecting when a ''twelve year old boy'' gets behind the wheel of a vehicle and [[spoiler:Henry taking out a mailbox]]. Later, Regina's response to this is priceless too.
1011* David and Emma attempt to put a crib together for Snow's baby...and fail.
1012-->'''Snow:''' Why don't we just call Marco? He's good at this kind of thing...\
1013'''Emma:''' No!\
1014'''David:''' We're fine!
1015* Smee being turned into a rat becoming an in-universe NeverLiveItDown.
1016* Emma sheepishly telling Snow and David that Henry thinks they're boring.
1017* Emma and Regina talking about leaving Henry with Hook. Regina asks [[EveryoneCanSeeIt if she honestly thinks everyone thinks they're just friends]] with the doe eyes and yearning looks.
1018-->'''Emma:''' I don't yearn.
1019-->'''Regina:''' Maybe not, but ''he'' does.
1020* And then Emma looking at the book of magic:
1021-->'''Emma:''' What is this, Spanish?
1022-->'''Regina:''' We're not making tapas, we're making magic. It's Elvish...''Half''-Elvish.
1023
1024[[AC:Episode 18 - Bleeding Through]]
1025* When Regina asks for a candle, Belle hands her Lumiere's candelabra. "Not that, Liberace!"
1026* Emma using her magic to prank Hook, complete with giggling like a child as she does so.
1027** That ''whole scene''. "I could open a franchise."
1028* Snow and Charming arguing over naming their child after one of Snow's parents.
1029-->'''Snow:''' [Leopold] was my father's name.\
1030'''Charming:''' People will make fun of him.\
1031'''Snow:''' My father was a king!\
1032'''Charming:''' Which is why nobody made fun of him.
1033** Including the hilarious expression Hook makes that expresses his exasperation.
1034* Emma's WrongGenreSavvy returns. After Snow White reveals that her mother's past wasn't as clean as she would've liked to believe, Emma says, "But I thought we were the good guys." Snow gives her daughter a look that practically screams, "Have you been paying attention the last few years?"
1035
1036[[AC:Episode 19 - A Curious Thing]]
1037* The look on Henry's face when [[spoiler:Regina]] reveals that the name of her new love interest is [[spoiler:''Robin Hood'']].
1038** The look on [[spoiler:Regina's face]] when Henry brings up said love interest.
1039* As Snow realizes she's in the same situation of an evil magic user after her baby:
1040-->'''Regina:''' In fairness, I was actually after you. Everyone else just became collateral damage.
1041-->'''Grumpy:''' Remind me why we forgave her again?
1042** While Snow and Charming going through the standard 'do whatever it takes to save our child' lines, Granny rolls her eyes at them.
1043* Glinda's title if you think about it. She's the Good Witch of the South who resides ''north'' of the Dark Forest.
1044* When going through Snow's closet, Charming asks in exasperation why there are so many boxes with shoes on them. Snow responds in a matter-of-fact, 'duh' voice:
1045-->'''Snow:''' After true love, footwear is the most powerful magic of all! It must be protected!
1046* Regina failing to enter a portal because she is not pure of heart.
1047* Regina being ungrateful to Robin after he just saved her from a booby trap.
1048-->'''Robin:''' Where I'm from, we call that gratitude.
1049-->'''Regina:''' Where you're from people bathe in the river and use pinecones for money.
1050* Regina, more radiant than a nuclear power plant after snogging with Robin, is a bit off her comeback game:
1051-->'''Snow:''' Regina! If I didn't know any better, I'd say you look smitten!
1052-->'''Regina:''' [''flustered''] Well, if I didn't know any better I'd say Häagen-Dazs is smitten with your stomach.
1053* When Regina, David and Snow are looking for Glinda, we're blessed with this gem:
1054-->''(Charming picks a flower for Snow)'' '''Charming:''' For luck.
1055-->Snow takes the flower and turns to see Regina giving her a look that just screams "really?"
1056-->'''Snow:''' What?
1057-->'''Regina:''' We're at the edge of the Dark Forest, trying to find the one person who can stop our imminent doom, and save your unborn child, and you two stop to smell the roses?!
1058-->'''Snow:''' (Holds up the flower.) [[SincerityMode Snowbells.]]
1059-->'''Charming:''' (Smiles at Regina.)
1060-->'''Regina:''' I don't care if they're dancing daffodils! I need to destroy my sister, and so do you!
1061* There's something funny about Belle awkwardly standing in the background, unfrozen, while Zelena meanders around the magically frozen Regina, Charming, and Snow to threaten them.
1062
1063[[AC:Episode 21 - Snow Drifts]]
1064* The whole bit with re-telling how Charming and Snow met is quite funny (especially how the two of them keep turning it into a bit of one-upmanship on who saved whom), but at the end when Emma runs off there's this.
1065-->'''David:''' She's just stubborn like her moth-- ''(Mary Margaret gives him a'' ''DeathGlare)'' --all our family.
1066* Emma and Hook get sent to the Enchanted Forest and Emma laments that she should have left Storybrooke sooner, since "this sort of thing doesn't happen in New York". Which is quite the dramatic irony since [[BigApplesauce New York is precisely where bizarre things happen most in fiction]].
1067* When Emma is trying on Enchanted Forest garb for the first time.
1068-->'''Emma:''' The only lasting impression I'm concerned about right now is what this corset is making on my spleen.
1069-->'''Hook:''' Your discomfort is a cross I'm willing to bear.
1070* Rumplestiltskin wondering why he hasn't killed Hook in the future.
1071-->'''Hook:''' Long story, but let's just say we buried the hatchet.\
1072'''Rumple:''' Yes, but why not ''in your skull?''
1073* Hook's growing jealousy of [[spoiler:Emma seducing his past self in order to distract him for present-day Hook to strike a deal with Snow White to get the ring. It culminates in him punching his past self in the face.]]
1074** The exchange after [[spoiler:Hook punches his past self in the face.]]
1075-->'''Emma:''' Are you kidding me? How is that not going to have consequences?\
1076'''Hook:''' ''(calmly)'' He was asking for it, and like I said, he'll blame it on the rum.
1077* This bit when [[spoiler:Past!Hook is taking Emma to his ship.]]
1078-->'''Hook:''' Welcome to the Rolly Joger!
1079* The part where [[spoiler:Past!Hook has a bit of a JawDrop upon seeing Emma for the first time.]]
1080* Hook and Emma entering Midas' ball, only to have the aforementioned ask them their names. What does Emma come up with? [[spoiler:Prince Charles and Princess [[Franchise/StarWars Leia]].]]
1081* Rumple dismissing the idea that he'd fall in love with Belle.
1082** Made even funnier when you recall that [[spoiler:they get married in the next episode.]]
1083** Listen closely to Emma's comment beforehand. Rumple's doing one of those exaggerated "What? ''No!''" laughs one does when they're trying to laugh something off but failing.
1084-->'''Rumple:''' (Laughs) W-w-what?! First, you tell me I let the pirate live, and now you're telling me I fall for the help.
1085* Emma seeing Evil Queen Regina.
1086-->'''Emma:''' She's nastier without her sensible pantsuits.
1087* This piece of gold from Rumple:
1088-->'''Rumple:''' There's a powerful wand, which uh...Icametoposess, anyway...
1089
1090[[AC:Episode 22 - There's No Place Like Home]]
1091* Rumple [[spoiler:after taking a memory potion.]] "What the hell am I doing in here?" (Poof)
1092* Hook trying to have a serious conversation while a ladybug won't leave him alone. [[spoiler:Even funnier when you find out the bug is actually Snow White under ForcedTransformation.]]
1093* The scene where [[spoiler:Hook, Charming, and Red go to free Emma from the Evil Queen's dungeon]] leads to this exchange:
1094-->'''Hook:''' Swan?\
1095'''Emma:''' Hook?\
1096'''Hook:''' What the hell are you doing? You're depriving me of a dashing rescue.\
1097'''Emma:''' Sorry. The only one who saves me is me.
1098* When trying to convince [[spoiler:Marian]] to return with them to the present.
1099-->[[spoiler:'''Marian:''']]...Unless you intend to kidnap me. I'm going to go find my family.\
1100(Emma knocks her out with a log.)\
1101'''Emma:''' Well then, I guess we're kidnapping you.\
1102'''Hook:''' ''(laughs)'' I always knew there was a little pirate in you, Swan.
1103* Emma ends up in the storybook...[[spoiler:as ''Leia'']]. (And Henry teases her about it!) Crosses over into Heartwarming territory as well, because in the previous episode she had commented on how the book was just fairy tales to her because she wasn't in it--and now she is.
1104[[/folder]]
1105
1106[[folder:Season 4]]
1107[[AC:Episode 1 - A Tale of Two Sisters]]
1108* Charming on the confrontation between Regina and Marian: "No one's incinerated yet. That's a good sign."
1109** Also his comment on baby Neal's name: "Maybe we should've gone with Baelfire."
1110* Grumpy/Leroy has Sleepy/Walter as his designated driver. It goes about as well as you expect - with Walter falling asleep at the wheel.
1111* Hook rolling his eyes at Grumpy racing in with bad news yet again. And later on, "Evil snowman, run!"
1112** He came in with bad news right after Emma pointed out there was always a crisis.
1113* Kristoff tries to stall from telling Elsa that [[spoiler:Anna is on her way to Misthaven]], and his story gets increasingly ridiculous as he speaks:
1114-->'''Queen Elsa:''' Kristoff? Where's Anna? ''[She finds Sven]'' Don't be coy. Answer me. ''[Sven grunts a bit. Kristoff appears and feeds Sven some carrots]''
1115-->'''Kristoff Bjorgman:''' Easy, Sven, she can't help being bossy.
1116-->'''Queen Elsa:''' I'm not bossy. I'm the queen.
1117-->'''Kristoff Bjorgman:''' Isn't that the queen's job? Bossing people around?
1118-->'''Queen Elsa:''' Don't change the subject, Kristoff. Where's Anna?
1119-->'''Kristoff Bjorgman:''' Isn't she in the palace?
1120-->'''Queen Elsa:''' If she were, why would I be here?
1121-->'''Kristoff Bjorgman:''' ''[hesitates]'' [[BadLiar Uh,]] [[BlatantLies she had some errands to run. Um, we need more.....frosting. For the cake.]] ''[Elsa's giving Kristoff her best "[[DeathGlare Did Anna put you up to this?]]" face]'' Yeah, she was concerned we weren't going to have enough. I tried to tell her we'd be fine, but what can I do? Brides. Perfectionists.
1122-->'''Queen Elsa:''' Frosting? There is no frosting!
1123-->'''Kristoff Bjorgman:''' [[ComicallyMissingThePoint Exactly! She's taking care of that!]]
1124-->'''Queen Elsa:''' No, I mean "that's a lie". ''[Kristoff realizes he's been caught]'' Talk, reindeer man! What is going on here?!
1125-->'''Kristoff Bjorgman:''' Wedding details! I'm just making sure-
1126-->'''Queen Elsa:''' That she wasn't followed. ''[sighs]'' You're trying to delay me. ''[Kristoff looks like he wants to change the subject]''
1127-->'''Kristoff Bjorgman:''' Do you want to see the floral arrangements?
1128-->'''Queen Elsa:''' Where did she go, Kristoff?! Misthaven? ''[Kristoff caves and admits that much is true]''
1129-->'''Kristoff Bjorgman:''' OK, yes. But she's doing it for you.
1130-->'''Queen Elsa:''' When?
1131-->'''Kristoff Bjorgman:''' She booked passage on a ship that's set to leave, well, any moment now.
1132** It's probably unintentional, but when Kristoff is stalling Elsa, Sven appears to actually [[AsideGlance look]] at the camera.
1133** Everything about Anna and Kristoff. They are both perfectly in character to who when we last saw them in ''WesternAnimation/{{Frozen|2013}}''.
1134* Sven was going to be the best man (or is that "best reindeer"?) at Anna and Kristoff's wedding. Properly attired, of course. And Elsa was going to be walking him down the aisle.
1135* Regina needs Sidney to show her [[ButForMeItWasTuesday who Marian even was]]. "Can you blame me? She's awfully vanilla!"
1136-->'''Sidney:''' I knew there was a reason you'd kept me locked up all these years! I knew you hadn't forgotten me.\
1137'''Regina:''' ... [[BlatantLies Of course.]]
1138* After Marshmallow is beaten, Emma suggests that she and Hook "Go home and see what's on Creator/{{Netflix}}." Hook's response:
1139-->'''Hook:''' I don't know what that is, but sure.
1140* Hook: "I have all the time in the world...unless another monster appears and kills me."
1141* Hook listing what they have at their disposal against Marshmallow, and [[OhCrap Emma looking more freaked out when he lists something.]]
1142-->'''Hook:''' A pistol, a sword, a hook, my cunning wit; I don't think we have what it takes.
1143
1144[[AC:Episode 2 - White Out]]
1145* ''Little Bo Peep'' is shown as a villainous warlord. Just the ''thought'' of this is hilarious, let alone the wonderfully {{Camp}}y portrayal.
1146** There's some BlackHumor in Bo Peep's Storybrooke persona being a butcher. Or for that matter, the Snow Queen running an ice cream parlor.
1147* Anna loves sandwiches. Enough for her and her true love to finish each other's, maybe.
1148* Grumpy pointing out how Gepetto and Dr. Whale are NotThatKindOfDoctor. Really, Snow walked right into that one.
1149* Snow's rant at Granny, Happy and Grumpy. "STOP SAYING LETTERS!"
1150* Henry helps Snow put baby Neal to bed. When he asks what babies dream about, David and Emma give conflicting answers.
1151-->'''Henry:''' I wonder what babies dream about.\
1152'''David:''' Bullfighting.\
1153'''Emma:''' Laser tag.
1154* David tries to insist Hook ask him for permission to date Emma. Hook replies that even he knows that's old fashioned, "And I still pay for things with doubloons."
1155* The scene where David and Hook walk into Gold's shop. Rumplestiltskin says to Belle, "It appears our honeymoon is over". In that same scene, David asks advice or at least for Rumple to help free Emma from Elsa's ice cave and Rumple and Hook's conversation is quite entertaining.
1156-->'''David:''' Emma's trapped under ice with a woman with some kind of..ice magic.
1157-->'''Rumple:''' And this involves me because...?
1158-->'''Hook:''' You're the bloody Dark One, do something!
1159-->'''Rumple:''' Well, I could melt the ice and destroy it with a thought, but that would also destroy your girlfriend, is that what you want?
1160** When Gold suggests melting the ice and says it could also destroy Emma, Hook looks pissed and looks like he is wanting to fight Rumple until David stops him.
1161
1162[[AC:Episode 3 - Rocky Road]]
1163* Regina's opinion on Mary Margaret putting a bird painting in the mayor's office.
1164-->'''Mary Margaret:''' I just thought it would be nice to try and put a personal touch to the office.
1165-->'''Regina:''' And you've succeeded... hideously.
1166* After Robin Hood tries to kiss the freezing Marian awake and it doesn't work, Charming opines that it might be the same as what happened with Abigail and Frederick (ice, rather than gold, keeping the lips from truly touching). But Emma is LockedOutOfTheLoop because no one ever got around to telling her this story. Her reaction seems like a combination of "Who ''else'' is in this town, and what other kind of trouble do I have to help them out of?" and "What else haven't you told me, Dad? Is this an OldFlame of Mom's?"
1167-->'''Emma:''' Who's ''Frederick''?!
1168-->'''Henry''', ''who's read the storybook cover to cover'': I'll tell you later.
1169* The whole scene with Emma and David discovering Will Scarlet in Robin's tent and what happens afterward has a number of gems, from Will claiming he was just in the tent because he'd heard about Marian and had come to offer condolences and information he thought would help--Emma isn't buying it for a minute--to the bit at the door of the ice cream shop when he tries picking the lock (Charming: "You really think it'll help your case, breaking in ''again''?") only for Emma to startle both of them with her own lock-picking knowledge she got from Neal, and finally how, after they investigate the back room to discover it being kept cold magically, they suddenly turn around to find Will gone...having emptied the till and run for it.
1170* Hook introduces Elsa to cell phones. "I don't know, it's a talking device. I just press the Emma button and she answers, usually."
1171** Followed by Hook complaining that it's useless to carry if Emma doesn't answer.
1172* Kristoff's comment after the urn is revealed to contain The Snow Queen.
1173-->'''Kristoff:''' No one thought to check if it was empty?
1174** Kristoff in general, really. He's almost as adorkable as Anna.
1175* Elsa is worried out of her mind about Anna's safety. Apparently she's been asking Kristoff more often than she should if anyone's heard from her:
1176-->'''Queen Elsa:''' So no one has heard from Anna? There's been no sighting from any of the scouts?
1177-->'''Kristoff Bjorgman:''' Since you asked me ten seconds ago? Nope.
1178* Kristoff gets several great one-liners during the confrontation with Hans.
1179-->'''Kristoff:''' ''(after Hans says he'll make Anna a widow if Elsa doesn't comply)'' [[LiteralMinded You know, technically, she wouldn't be a widow. We're not married yet]]...\
1180** And:
1181-->'''Prince Hans:''' This is the man she's to marry?
1182-->'''Kristoff Bjorgman:''' In fairness, I didn't try to kill her.
1183-->'''Prince Hans:''' I didn't try to kill her. [[MurderByInaction I left her to die]].\
1184'''Kristoff Bjorgman:''' [[DeadpanSnarker Important distinction]].
1185* Emma calling the Snow Queen "Dairy Queen."
1186** Speaking of the Snow Queen, there's something hilarious about the look she gives Hans' brothers that makes them back off. She just froze Hans right in front of them, and apparently they can't even take a hint that they should be running away in pants-pissing terror; that one look just screams, "How stupid do you have to be to go all DeerInTheHeadlights on me after this? You should be running five seconds ago!"
1187
1188[[AC:Episode 4 - The Apprentice]]
1189* Snow and David insisting on acting like the doting parents of a teenage girl on her first date when Emma goes out with Hook, taking a picture on her way out and then waiting up for a full report (while David insists he could be spared a few details).
1190** And Elsa asks where the rest of Emma's dress is.
1191** The whole thing drives Emma to [[RunningGag constantly mutter to herself that it's time for her to find her own place to live]].
1192* Emma asking Hook out ''is'' this.
1193-->'''Hook:''' Like I said, luv, you don't have to worry about me. ''(turns back to the dartboard)''
1194-->'''Emma:''' Good, because I'm here to ask you out.
1195-->''(Hook fumbles the dart and misses the board completely)''
1196** "Shouldn't ''I'' be the one asking ''you'' out?"
1197** Emma teasing him about his age and being old-fashioned.
1198** Hook says ''he'' gets to plan the evening.
1199-->'''Emma:''' I know how to plan a date!
1200-->'''Hook:''' You know how to kill a monster. ''I'' know how to plan an evening out.
1201* When Emma finds out Hook had his hand regenerated: "What do I call you now? Captain Hand?"
1202* The grin and eyebrow waggle Hook gives David as he and Emma leave, apparently for no reason other than to {{Troll}} him.
1203* The town radio station Emma listens to right before her encounter with the Snow Queen reports that temperatures are "70 in mid-town dropping to low 30's out by the ice wall" before answering a request "from Mr. Rip Van Winkle, looking for something classic to wake up to."
1204* Anna's complete befuddlement when Rumple listens to her and doesn't try to attack her.
1205-->'''Anna:''' Wait. You're not coming any closer just because I told you not to?
1206** And she calls it a "wavy knife."
1207** Also her commentary on Rumple's "skin condition".
1208* Anna describing her feelings on Rumple's information about her parents. While she does have legitimate reasons to be upset, the way she describes it sounds more like an overreacting teenager in a "crisis".
1209-->'''Kristoff:''' That is-
1210-->'''Anna:''' Horrible? Terrible? The worst news you've ever heard and the world might as well end right now?
1211-->'''Kristoff:''' I was gonna say...''bad''. But yeah, wha-what you said.
1212
1213[[AC:Episode 5 - Breaking Glass]]
1214* Regina would like to find The Snow Queen "before it's actually winter."
1215* David assured his wife that Belle would be able to reach them even if they fell through a portal to Asgard. Especially funny considered [[ActorAllusion Josh Dallas']] [[{{Film/Thor}} previous film]].
1216** Even funnier when you realize that, considering the other lands we've seen (Oz, Arendelle, Neverland, Wonderland), a portal to Asgard is not out of the realm of possibility. After all, the writers have said that any storybook elements are theoretically fair game and Asgard did originate in Myth/NorseMythology (i.e. ancient stories). Not to mention [[Myth/GreekMythology Midas' involvement]] in the show.
1217* The entire conversation between Mary Margaret and Will. More funnier, at the end, the fact that Mary has come to the wrong conclusions [[WrongGenreSavvy assuming that her husband had released Will.]]
1218
1219[[AC:Episode 6 - Family Business]]
1220* Oaken is just as on point as he was for his one scene in ''Frozen'', meaning every second he's onscreen is one. Plus his offscreen "Ja!" when Anna says he means well.
1221* Regina adds another nickname when she calls Hook "Captain Guyliner."
1222** Right before which she has a line containing the phrase "about to storm an evil ice cream truck."
1223** She also complains about Emma and Hook "making eyes" at each other. Emma denies it. Immediately after, [[HypocriticalHumor she and Hook]] [[IResembleThatRemark start making eyes]].
1224* Anna and Kristoff's conversation, some highlight:
1225-->'''Anna:''' She (Ingrid) is up to something ... because I'm a good judge of character!
1226-->'''Kristoff:''' Yeah, says the girl who agreed to marry Hans ten minutes after you started talking to him.
1227-->'''Anna:''' I was young and naive!
1228-->'''Kristoff:''' You met me the next day.
1229-->'''Anna'''" Young-ER!
1230* Remember Anna's pathetic attempt in ''Frozen'' to rock-climb without a rope or axe? Well, she hasn't gotten any better at climbing.
1231* Hook lampshades that EveryoneIsRelated in Storybrooke.
1232
1233[[AC:Episode 7- The Snow Queen]]
1234* Rumplestilskin's secret potion that can transform something old into something new? [[spoiler:Furniture polish.]]
1235* Henry responds that "[he's] getting married" when Regina asks why he's all dressed up. Her reaction is ''priceless''.
1236* Aurora's FishOutOfTemporalWater moment when she calls the CD player a "devil box".
1237* Hook noting that he looks even better than usual in the Snow Queen's (fake) mirror.
1238* David, Hook, and the others rush into the pawn shop after finding out that the Snow Queen engineered her own capture and is now sealed by ice in the sheriff's station with Emma.
1239-->'''Gold:''' [[GenreSavvy Well, this kind of procession never bodes well]].
1240* The revelation that people have been deliberately mispronouncing the Duke of Weselton's own country's name as "''Weaseltown''" ever since he was a young man. As in, a full 25+ years before the main events of ''Frozen'' happened. The dialogue where it's revealed is very similar to the Duke's last scene in ''Frozen'':
1241-->'''Helga:''' We shall see to it that your diplomatic mission is over. And we shall send you back to ''Weaseltown''.
1242-->'''Duke of Weselton:''' It's pronounced "Wesel-ton"!
1243** Even better? It's a ''running gag'' in the Royal Family. Helga then Elsa.
1244
1245[[AC:Episode 8 - Smash The Mirror]]
1246* Elsa preparing a chocolate party for Anna, as both sisters love chocolate. She asks if chocolate ''toast'' is too much. As a lover of chocolate, this troper can say this: it's ''not'' too much.
1247* Anna saying that she believed every word of Elsa's speech and that she was absolutely crushed. Never has someone said those words so happily.
1248* Kristoff may have slept in a barn, but he'd like you to know that it was a ''spotless'' barn.
1249** Kristoff also noting how the inability to confront their family relationship issues runs through Anna and Elsa's family.
1250* The dialogue between Hook and David about the cell phone:
1251-->'''Hook:''' Bloody hell. I left my talking phone in the back of your truck.
1252-->'''David:''' It's just called a phone.
1253-->'''Hook:''' What a practical name.
1254* Anna being startled at the discovery of Frozen Hans in a dresser, while Elsa quickly notes that a lot happened while Anna was away and that was probably the only good thing Ingrid has done since being freed.
1255** Which has the follow-up moment when they're sneaking back through the castle: Ingrid does have skeletons in her closet. [[DontExplainTheJoke Because she has Hans in the closet]]. [[{{Adorkable}} And he's frozen, and has a skeleton inside him]].
1256* Anna talking to Elsa about her distrust of Ingrid:
1257-->'''Anna:''' Oh, speaking of which, I'm really worried about Ingrid right now. She's scary and powerful and smart [[DepartmentOfRedundancyDepartment and scary]].
1258-->'''Elsa:''' [[DeadpanSnarker You already said scary.]]
1259* Robin and Will in the library:
1260-->'''Robin:''' Why would [[Literature/TheCatInTheHat a cat want a hat]]?
1261-->'''Will:''' [[DeadpanSnarker I've seen weirder, mate.]]
1262** As we learn from ''Once Upon A Time In Wonderland'', there are apparently ''Sarlaacs in Wonderland.'' If he's seen one of those, then a cat with a hat is ''absolutely'' fair game.
1263* Snow White ''tried'' to keep a straight face while telling Regina to button her shirt. Double as a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}} as she was clearly happy for her stepmother.
1264* Regina on Snow and Charming allowing Emma to get rid of her magic: "This is the worst idea you've ever had, and you hired the Wicked Witch as your nanny!"
1265* Regina lampshades Snow's tendency to talk about hope, saying she must be getting money from "the Hope Foundation."
1266** Regina and Robin kiss - Regina's response is that she "owes someone a quarter".
1267* Will surreptitiously pouring his ''entire flask of booze'' into his coffee.
1268* Will trying to pick an ''unlocked'' door.
1269* Hook gives Emma a BigDamnKiss right in front of Elsa, who just [[ShipperOnDeck smiles]] and looks away.
1270-->'''Emma:''' Easy, tiger. We've got company.
1271* Anna discussing how she'll surprise Ingrid with the urn. It's the delivery of the second line that sells it.
1272-->Not like party surprise, something more dour to match the occasion...''[[EvilSoundsDeep surprise.]]''
1273** To be followed up by a bit of BlackHumor when Ingrid captures her in manacles.
1274-->'''Ingrid:''' Surprise! How was that?
1275-->'''Anna:''' Not how I would have done it.
1276
1277[[AC:Episode 9 - Fall]]
1278* After Hans manages to take over Arendelle from Anna and Kristoff and rubs it in their faces, Anna dejectedly calls him out, and reminds him that she even sang "Love Is an Open Door" with him. Cue Hans looking embarrassed about this, confusion from Kristoff and chuckles from Hans' brothers.
1279* Anna tried to make a deal with Blackbeard, ''something about over 200 pounds of gold''.
1280* Kristoff's options included "evil dark wizard" or "pirate". He still couldn't make up his mind in the end.
1281* Regina declaring that the needs of the town outweigh Elsa's need to find Anna, and Snow agreeing with her. Emma and Regina are stunned to silence.
1282** Later, when they realize that Elsa has abandoned them to find Anna, taking the only possible preventative measure against the curse with her, Regina asks if Snow has another speech about hope and faith.
1283-->'''Snow:''' Well not right now seeing as Elsa's blind faith just screwed us over!\
1284'''Regina:''' Coming from you that's terrifying.
1285** Regina also snarks that she should never trust blondes.
1286* Anna and Elsa, Kristoff and David, and David and Anna all trying to have cute and touching reunions while Emma continuously reminds everybody that there is a curse coming, ''hurry up and get ready''.
1287* Anna's BluntMetaphorsTrauma over Hans and his brothers "rolling around" in gold.
1288-->'''Hans:''' Because my brothers and I spent Wednesday rolling around on the money in the royal treasury.
1289-->'''Anna:''' You rolled around in gold bars? Weird. And ouch.
1290-->'''Hans:''' Figure of speech. We reveled in it.
1291* A blink-and-you'll-miss moment: Thanks to Elizabeth Lail's performance, Anna's comment "What a funny looking world!" comes off sounding exactly like Olaf's line "Who's the funny looking donkey over there?" and just as hilarious.
1292** And Elsa agrees!
1293* While Hans taking over Arendelle is dark, the way he does it is rather funny: he bribes Arendelle's military to his side by...using stolen money from Arendelle's royal vault. In other words, Hans just bought himself a kingdom using its own money, without spending a single shilling from his own pocket. It's almost as ingenious as one of Rumplestiltkin's innumerable con games. Also counts as [[RefugeInAudacity a plan so dumb it shouldn't work.]]
1294
1295[[AC:Episode 10 - Shattered Sight]]
1296* Regina's aghast "What am I wearing?" after turning back into the Evil Queen and then repeats the line at the end of the episode when she snapped out of it.
1297** The latter coupled with Snow's look of "Yeah, what are you wearing?"
1298* Regina saying Charming deserves to die just for his whining, to which Charming gives a quite offended look.
1299* When Charming and Snow argue about Snow giving away Regina's secret romance long ago, Regina cuts them off with a glorious "''Shudddauuuup!''"
1300* Henry's worst self turns out to be [[PokeThePoodle setting up Home Alone style traps]].
1301* Dopey catching snowflakes on his tongue after the curse is lifted. If you're reminded of Sven doing the same thing in ''Frozen'', it's funnier.
1302** And earlier, when everyone was still under the Shattered Sight curse, Doc was shaking him angrily and telling him to [[CuteMute say something]].
1303* Mary Margaret's response to Regina's angry accusation of not being able to keep secrets. It's part defensive and part battle cry.
1304--->'''Mary Margaret:''' I was teeeeeen!
1305** There's what happens after; she charges at Regina, there's the clang of metal and something smashing offscreen that sounds rather like glass. Whatever Mary Margaret hit, it ''definitely'' was '''''NOT''''' Regina.
1306* Also, during the fight, David tells them not to smash the stroller.
1307--->'''David:''' Careful, it's not under warranty anymore!
1308--->'''Mary Margaret:''' You said you bought it new!
1309--->'''David:''' It was gently used!
1310* [[{{Adorkable}} Anna's]] attempt to knock a cursed Kristoff out with a bottle. She first tells him to close his eyes. And she continues to talk to him afterwards, even while acknowledging that he's knocked out.
1311** Shortly after that, when she discovers that Kristoff was still carrying [[spoiler:her mother's written apology to Ingrid]]: "Kristoff! You're brilliant! You're wonderful!...You're unconscious."
1312* Ingrid's arrival into our world. After passing a couple punks to remind us she wouldn't stand out ''that'' much in '80s Boston, she comes across a phony psychic and discovers her powers don't work upon finding her out, forcing her to flee from a baseball bat.
1313* Regina hitting what any parent will tell you is an instant BerserkButton: "DON'T WAKE MY BABY!"
1314* The return of the same excuse Snow used in regards to going out with Dr. Whale, this time in regards to their recent horrible behavior: "We were cursed."
1315** The fact that Charming brought up that particular event while under the Shattered Sight spell is kind of amusing.
1316*** When Emma and Elsa are leaving, Snow and Charming are still fighting about her one-night-stand in the background. Listen closely and you'll hear Snow shouting "At least he knows which part is which!"
1317* Some solid banter between S.Sight!Charming and S.Sight!Kristoff, "You're from Arendelle what are you doing selling ice, the whole place is FROZEN!"
1318* When Elsa and Anna are discussing the plan to stop Ingrid, in the background David and Mary Margaret are arguing and annoying Kristoff so much that he reaches for the closest thing to him, which are sheets of paper, and throws them at David while exclaiming, "God!"
1319* The sheer pant wetting laughs from Regina, Snow and Charming after the curse breaks and they discover what Regina is wearing.
1320* [[TheHeart Anna]] tries to reason with S.Sight!Mary Margaret. Problem is she's so pissy and showing what a bitch she can be even Anna goes ScrewThisImOuttaHere.
1321-->[[VillainCred I killed the Evil Queen's mommy,]] and said I was sorry ''but I didn't mean it.'' [[SarcasmMode Still want to hug, sing 'zippidy doo dah'?]]
1322* Emma and Elsa trying to antagonise Regina. They walk into her vault to discover her in full Evil Queen regalia.
1323-->'''Emma:''' Little late for Halloween.
1324-->'''Regina:''' You!
1325-->'''Emma:''' How do you walk in that thing?
1326-->'''Regina:''' [[InsultBackfire With the poise and composure of a queen]]. Perfect timing, Miss Swan. I was just reading up on how to turn you into a garden topiary!
1327** A garden topiary is essentially a hedge sculpture. [[PokeThePoodle That's Regina's idea of revenge these days]].
1328
1329[[AC:Episode 11 - Heroes and Villains]]
1330* Belle's discomfort at Henry calling her "Grandma."
1331* Hans being denied the dignity of being defeated onscreen. Though Anna apparently gave him a black eye with a hit hard enough to damage her knuckles.
1332* Emma taking the "rip off the band-aid" approach to putting Hook's heart back in.
1333* Rumple's description of Cruella's smell: "desperation and gin."
1334** Her quip to him is funny as well. "Do you want me to get you a stool so you can look me in the eyes when you threaten me?"
1335* Belle says that she thinks Rumplestiltskin gathers power because he has a hole in his heart. He responds that the only thing he needs is clean clothes and magics her outside so she can do the laundry. This is her response:
1336-->'''Belle:''' You're just mad because you know I'm right *{{beat}}* and no, I'm not talking to myself because I know you can and do listen to me.
1337
1338[[AC:Episode 12 - Darkness on the Edge of Town]]
1339* The constant fish jokes at Ursula's expense, especially Maleficent wondering if she's up to some hentai action.
1340* Rumplestiltskin, Ursula, and Cruella crammed into the latter's Rolls Royce, at a fast food drive-in. Cruella and Ursula seem right at home, casually ordering from the Cluck Bucket - Rumple abstains, not wanting to die before they even get to Storybrooke.
1341** The whole thing could really be the setup for a joke under different circumstances: "So Rumplestiltskin, Cruella De Vil, and Ursula are on a road trip and stop for fast food..." ARareSentence indeed.
1342* Seeing Rumple crashing at Ursula's place. Oh how the mighty have fallen.
1343* Ursula and Cruella [[FunnyBackgroundEvent standing outside the barrier looking bored as hell]] as the heroes deal with the Chernabog and all the shit that is happening and then debate whether to let them in.
1344* Everyone in Storybrooke having reached the point where they barely react to the latest disaster and have their jobs down cold.
1345-->'''Regina:''' [[DeadpanSnarker Let's go see what's destroying property values]] [[LampshadeHanging this time.]]
1346* During the opening montage of everyone in Storybrooke, we get a brief scene of Regina casually setting fire to a portrait of some birds that Snow had left in her office whilst smiling happily as she does so.
1347** Happily? It's more of a "Thank god; hideous painting is gone... and this room works again!"
1348* A FreezeFrameBonus in the beginning: when Regina is seeing off Henry off to school, she buttons up his shirt to his neck. The moment he steps on the bus with his back to her, he's already unbuttoning the top and it stays that way while he's in class.
1349* When discussing how to deal with Chernabog:
1350-->'''Hook:''' Surely the Savior and the Evil Queen can defeat a simple hell beast?
1351-->'''Regina:''' Can we drop the E-word already.
1352* Emma and Regina discussing whether the Chernabog is after Regina.
1353-->'''Emma:''' Regina. We're not sure it's after you.
1354-->'''Regina:''' Of course it's after me. Ursula says that it devours the heart with the darkest potential, and now that Gold's gone...Well, who else could that be? I mean, is there a dwarf named Evilly?
1355-->'''Regina:''' (whispering and gesturing towards herself) It's me.
1356* Cruella. Waving at Regina. While driving away in her Rolls Royce. Also, the tease in that scene; the camera lingers, just for a moment, on the boot - making you think Rumple is inside. He's not... but the imagery is a LOL in itself.
1357* Once Regina answers a call from Ursula, she gives a simple smirk and says:
1358-->'''Regina:''' The sea bitch.
1359* After Ursula breaks into her castle, and knocks out her guard, Maleficent delivers this gem:
1360-->'''Maleficent:''' I'm the person whose valet you either knocked out, strangled, or tried to impregnate. I don't know what those tentacles are for.
1361* While recruting Cruella, we get this lovely exchange between her and Gold.
1362-->'''Cruella:''' What exactly are you offering, short stuff?
1363-->'''Rumplestiltskin:''' The answer to all your prayers.
1364-->'''Cruella:''' I'm not exactly the religeous sort.
1365-->'''Rumplestiltskin:''' Shocked.
1366* When Chernabog comes to Storybrooke, everyone is so used to it that hardly anyone bats an eye. "I suppose we should go out and see whats killing property values this time."
1367-->'''Emma:''' Belle ...
1368-->'''Belle:''' I'll see if I can find anything about this thing in the library.
1369-->'''Emma:''' Thanks! And Mary Margaret ...
1370-->'''Snow:''' I'll get everyone to safety. I'm on it.
1371-->'''Emma:''' Wow, you guys really have this down.
1372-->'''Killian:''' Well this isn't our first monster bash.
1373* When Emma discovers that they can't put Chernabog back in the hat:
1374-->'''Emma:''' Great. So our best defense against magical beasts follows the same rules as chicken pox?
1375* When Rumplestiltskin is staying at Ursula's, we get this exchange between the two.
1376-->(Microwave dings)
1377-->'''Ursula:''' That means it's ready.
1378-->'''Gold:''' Yes, I know how to work a microwave, thank you.
1379-->'''Ursula:''' Because the Dark One did so much cooking in his time.
1380-->'''Gold:''' Well, worry not, my power extends far beyond Ramen noodles.
1381
1382[[AC:Episode 13 - Unforgiven]]
1383* Regina's nicknames for the new Big Bads: Fishsticks and Pound Puppy.
1384* Snow's irritation at the dwarves selecting ''Sleepy'' for guard duty.
1385** Better, her tone of voice suggests this is ''not'' the first time it's happened.
1386* Granny passive-aggressively refusing to take Cruella and Ursula's orders.
1387** Even better when Will (the guy who stole the keys to her diner) comes in for his usual, and he gets it on the spot.
1388* This exchange:
1389-->'''Regina:''' Bring up my former sins in front of my son again, and you'll be across the town line faster than you can say "costume jewelry".
1390-->'''Cruella:''' [[ThreatBackfire These are blood diamonds,]] [[ITakeOffenseToThatLastOne I'll have you know.]]
1391* Ursula and Cruella continue to provide wonderful background snark, such as [[CasualDangerDialogue their comments]] during [[spoiler:Maleficent's ToThePain speech]]:
1392-->'''Ursula:''' I've forgotten how much I missed her.
1393-->'''Cruella:''' It's going to be entertaining.
1394
1395[[AC:Episode 14 - Enter The Dragon]]
1396* When Maleficent brings Regina to Marco's house in pursuit of a magical item, Regina comments that the only such item to be found there is duct tape.
1397* When Regina goes undercover with the Queens of Darkness, she tells the Charmings they're going to have to keep their meetings covert. So, [[SarcasmMode naturally]], the next time they meet, they come to the library with Emma and Hook. Regina's reaction? "I said covert and you bring the entire Charming softball team and their pirate mascot?!"
1398* Rumplestiltskin on Maleficent's dragon form: "[[{{Hypocrite}} Bit showy, if you ask me]]."
1399* When Regina first tries to get Maleficent to seek revenge again: "Would you like some advice? Find another hobby."
1400** Also, the way she dismisses the spellbook Regina brought along is rather the way one would disparage a coloring book.
1401* Despite the circumstances (about to be captured, finding herself once again failing to regain her great power), the look on Maleficent's face when she can't turn into the dragon is priceless.
1402
1403[[AC:Episode 15 - Poor Unfortunate Soul]]
1404* There was something very funny about Hook pulling his hook out to open his secret chest.
1405* The explanation behind [[spoiler:Ariel's re-appearance? Elsa shrunk the Jolly Roger (with Ariel nearby) to punish Blackbeard for his attempts to plunder the royal family of Arendelle.]]
1406* [[spoiler:Ariel slaps Hook for what he did in "The Jolly Roger", with the main reasoning being she's angry that she actually had to [[SaveTheVillain save Blackbeard's life]] as a result.]]
1407* A dramatic fight between Emma and Cruella being cut short by Mary Margaret knocking the latter out from behind with a frying pan.
1408* Gold's incredulous expression and body language when Cruella suddenly pulls up in front of him, Regina and Maleficent in her car...[[DrivesLikeCrazy having driven there in her usual way.]]
1409
1410[[AC:Episode 16 - Best Laid Plans]]
1411* Killian getting jealous over Emma spending time with August, and pointing out that she does have a penchant for "men in leather jackets".
1412* When Regina returns to Rumple and the Queens of Darkness, Cruella snarks that she feels like she's aged ten years waiting for her. Regina gives her a disdainful look and retorts "well, you certainly look it."
1413* Ursula shouting "cradle robbers!" before she and Cruella get sucked into a portal.
1414
1415[[AC:Episode 17 - Heart of Gold]]
1416* "Hail Wicked Witch" - Robin's pitiful attempt at maintaining his masquerade.
1417* Crosses into Awesome. Robin Hood steals a horse and chases down a thief in BUSY traffic in the middle of NYC...all to get Marian's purse back.
1418* Marian [[spoiler:(Zelena in disguise)]] showing up in Gold's hospital room to reveal she'd switched the Elixir of the Wounded Heart...with cough medicine. And proceeds to go through [[SideEffectsInclude the usual list]] when explaining what it will do to him in lieu of healing his heart. [[CrossesTheLineTwice Ending with that it's "non-drowsy."]]
1419** [[spoiler:Zelena giddily knocking on his chest as if to say "Anybody in there?" while smirking as he goes into cardiac arrest is equal parts this and NightmareFuel.]]
1420* The Author calling Rumple "the biggest pain in the ass I ever had to write."
1421
1422[[AC:Episode 18 - Sympathy for the De Vil]]
1423* Cruella [[http://fuckyesonceuponatime.tumblr.com/post/117047831535 plays]] ''Videogame/AngryBirds''.
1424-->'''Cruella:''' Blasted birds. I'll show you what "angry" looks like.
1425** Bonus points for the fact that she's doing so [[RefugeInAudacity in the middle of kidnapping Henry.]]
1426*** [[HilariousInHindsight Becomes even more funny]] once we learn [[spoiler:Cruella's forbidden to kill any living thing]]. What's the point of ''Angry Birds''? ''[[spoiler:To kill as many pigs as you can!]]'' No wonder she sucks at it.
1427* There's something [[BlackComedy terribly funny]] about her "explanation" for why she lied about [[spoiler:whether Maleficent's child was dead]]. It's the delivery that really sells it.
1428-->'''Maleficent:''' You lied.
1429-->'''Cruella:''' Perhaps I did. Um, but there's an explanation, of course. You see, um... [[CardCarryingVillain I'm a really terrible person]], and [[WouldHurtAChild I left her in the woods to die]].
1430
1431[[AC:Episode 19 - Lily]]
1432* Regina's reaction to the inside of a run-down tenement building:
1433-->'''Regina:''' Why did I go to the trouble of creating Storybrooke when I could have cursed everyone to live ''here''?
1434* Rumple goes in to the pawn shop to talk to Will about getting Belle's heart back. Needless to say, Will is nervous, given Rumple's previous interactions with men who've dated his exes, but he stand up to him telling Rumple that he can put up a fight and that he's "scrappy." Rumple's response? "[[SarcasmMode Alright]], [[TheScrappy Scrappy.]]"
1435
1436[[AC:Episode 21 - Operation Mongoose]]
1437* Charming and Snow apologizing to Hook for [[spoiler:killing him in the alternate reality and Charming stating that it was not his fault; he had no heart after all. Snow then gets annoyed that he's putting all the blame on her.]]
1438* Even with new memories of a happy, healthy life, Zelena can repress her evil side for a whole two minutes of screen time. When an injured woman puts blood on her wedding dress (because she's lying on the ground and the bride walked near her), she starts complaining about how IT WAS SUPPOSED TO BE HER DAY, starts turning green, and runs off dramatically. Leaving her new husband to care for the one who just tried a HeroicSacrifice.
1439* Seeing Ginnifer Goodwin, the sweet, virtuous Snow White, being a snarky BigBad. Especially her relationship with Charming, where their romantic [[ArcWords "I will always find you"]] becomes essentialy a belaboured "I'm coming, I'm coming."
1440
1441[[/folder]]
1442
1443[[folder:Season 5]]
1444
1445[[AC:Episode 1 - Dark Swan]]
1446* King Arthur and his knights ride to the sword in the stone, only to find someone else beat them to it. The person in question is Sir Kay who wishes to defy Merlin's prophecy and tries to take the sword and the Kingdom for himself. The sword glows promisingly... then turns him to ash. Lancelot promptly turns to Arthur and says casually, "Your turn."
1447* Their reactions to finding out the sword is missing its bottom half are also quite funny. King Arthur is at a loss as to how he's supposed to rule a kingdom with half a sword. Plus the fact that their new quest, however much they dress it up in fancy words, is having to fix said sword.
1448* Merida's offhand reference to the events of ''Brave'' which like ''Frozen'' goes completely over Emma's head.
1449* After Emma magically knocks down the fleeing thief who stole her will-o'-the-wisp, this exchange occurs after said thief reveals herself as Merida:
1450-->'''Emma:''' I'm not going to hurt you.\
1451'''Merida:''' So that was just a wee magical love-tap?
1452* Hook's incredulous "You what?" when he learns Henry destroyed the Author's pen.
1453* Rumple's sarcastic befuddlement at Merida's accent. Especially hilarious because both are played by Scottish actors.
1454
1455[[AC:Episode 2 - The Price]]
1456* Emma ''finally'' has her own home in Storybrooke. It only took casting her own version of the Dark Curse to get it.
1457* How Grumpy volunteers Dopey to cross the town line: all the other dwarves say "Not I" and Dopey holds up a notepad with the same message. But since he couldn't say it... "I take your silence as bravery."
1458* Regina's reaction to Dopey turning into a tree. "Well, that's new."
1459* In Camelot, Regina needs to look the part of the Savior...and when she puts herself in a dress for the ball, it's in full Evil Queen regalia. Charming, Doc, and Snow all stare at her, and then Charming comments, "Well now, that looks...scary."
1460** Also the reason she didn't want to go to the ball? She doesn't know how to dance. (Although this goes from funny to painful when she reveals the reason is because Leopold only wanted to dance with little Snow.)
1461* Snow and Charming catch sight of Henry's interest in Violet. Snow calls attention to it, causing Charming to respond: "First crush? On it." (But instead of trying to put a stop to it, he encourages him...with advice to simply introduce himself, and play up being a mysterious outlander to look cool and dashing.)
1462** Regina notices too, and is far more MamaBear about it.
1463
1464[[AC:Episode 3 - Siege Perilous]]
1465* The goofy smile on David's face when Arthur volunteers to accompany him on his quest. It's like he's finally happy to get some Bro Time with a fellow Man Of Action.
1466* David using a magic chalice to find who stole valuable magical objects (Which is actually a cup from Doc's birthday and even has "Doctoberfest" written on it).
1467* The BlackHumor when Emma takes Happy's pickaxe: "There's one thing I've learned: never let anything with your name on it out of your sight."
1468* The scene in Granny's between Hook and Robin:
1469-->'''Hook:'''(sees Robin looking at his phone) What's that then?
1470-->'''Robin:''' It's a picture from up inside Zelena.
1471-->'''Hook:'''(taken aback) Whoa, mate!
1472-->'''Robin:''' No, no it's of the baby! They call it a sonogram.
1473
1474[[AC:Episode 4 - The Broken Kingdom]]
1475* Hook's complete glee at Henry meeting a girl.
1476* The circumstances are far from funny (and Lancelot ends up being proven right about him), but when Charming first comes to Arthur and tells him he doesn't trust him, he asks why: [[BeardOfEvil "It's the beard, isn't it?"]]
1477* Emma has [[MamaBear the exact same reaction as Regina]] when she learns Henry has met a girl.
1478* Upon handling Excalibur, Charming had this to say:
1479-->'''Charming:''' Finally, a blade that can stand up to Granny's meatloaf.
1480
1481[[AC:Episode 5 - Dreamcatchers]]
1482* Charming and Snow are freed from the Sands of Avalon, and told it was Merlin who did so. They turn and stare at...a very young, black man.
1483-->'''Merlin:''' You were [[ExpectingSomeoneTaller expecting someone]]...
1484-->'''Charming:''' We were expecting someone...older.
1485-->'''Merlin''', ''wryly'': Being a tree is very good for the skin.
1486* And then in the very same scene, they and Emma appeal to him to save her from the Darkness. He stares at her solemnly, as if about to give some portentous speech...and then just says, [[SophisticatedAsHell "Sure."]]
1487* Granny's lasagna comes up again, this time with Henry managing to reheat some from the fridge for Violet.
1488* Regina, keeping Hook from trying to draw Excalibur and being turned to dust by saying (and [[ICantBelieveImSayingThis she can't believe she is]]) that they might need him/he might be useful later.
1489* Henry suggests a dance to raise people's spirits. Charming teases that he's just looking for an excuse to ask his "girlfriend," Violet (whom he's been texting during this scene) out on a date. Regina goes into MamaBear mode and grills Henry about it. Hook tries to be helpful.
1490-->'''Hook:''' Well, if it's dating tips you need lad, I know my way around a woman.
1491-->'''Regina:''' Over your dead body.
1492
1493[[AC:Episode 6 - The Bear and The Bow]]
1494* Emma's way of bribing Zelena into helping her? [[spoiler:Onion rings]].
1495** Before this, we see that Regina has ordered her to only be fed locally grown products (ie, green stuff).
1496** When Zelena is served the above-mentioned green products, Rebecca Mader's teeth clenched delivery of "isn't my sister ''sweet''!" is priceless.
1497* After all the effort to contact Merlin, the heroes get what's essentially his voicemail, as Regina promptly points out.
1498* Merlin says that his magic skills returning are "just like riding a bike"
1499-->'''Charming:''' [[FridgeLogic How do you know what a bike is?]]\
1500'''Merlin:''' You don't think all my prophecies came true due to luck, do you?
1501* Proud and defiant, ready to do her worst to the Three Clans, Merida drinks what she thinks is the Potion of Mor'du, declaring they won't be ready for what hits them...and nothing happens. Dumbfounded, she turns to Belle and whispers fiercely to find out if she mixed the potion correctly. Belle confirms she did, but she switched it for plain water, and waited until it was too late for Merida to back out so she would have to face her fears and save her brothers without magic. Merida's response? "You couldn't have told me ''before'' we were surrounded?"
1502
1503[[AC:Episode 7 - Nimue]]
1504* Although it becomes incredibly HarsherInHindsight, the scene where Merlin off-handedly reveals he still has the Holy Grail (or more specifically, where) is quite funny, as is Nimue's reaction: "The Holy Grail has been in my living room the whole time?!"
1505* Zelena is in wonderful form such as when Regina gives her her voice back and she goes "I do love hearing a sensible person talk."
1506** Also, her reaction to Charming's dry "plans" on breaking into the castle: "Well, if Sir-Castic will let me speak..."
1507* Emma quoting "Working My Way Back to You" to Hook, and being delighted that she can quote things from Earth in general and he'll never know what they mean, is both this and a SugarWiki/{{Heartwarming Moment|s}}.
1508* Mary Margaret agreeing with relish to stand guard over Zelena and to "exchange pregnancy tips" is a glorious bit of BlackHumor, considering what Zelena tried to do to baby Neal back in Season 3.
1509
1510[[AC:Episode 8 - Birth]]
1511* At the start of the episode, Zelena is reading a bedtime story to her unborn baby. The tale? "Hansel and Gretel." Which part? Where the witch is about to cook the children. [[BlackHumor Which she declares is her favorite part]]. Becomes much HarsherInHindsight, however, after Season Seven reveals [[spoiler:her connection with a different, and much more traumatized, Hansel...]].
1512* Asked if she's sure Emma is the reason she's gone from two months along to in labor, Zelena snaps "Let's just say that if the Dark One offers you onion rings, don't eat them!"
1513* The long absent Dr. Whale pops in and everyone comments on his new white hair (due to David Anders' role on Series/{{iZombie}}). When Whale makes some smart remarks on Zelena, Regina mutters "we really need another doctor in this town."
1514** Whale also points out that he has the right to be snarky since last time Zelena was in his hospital she stole a baby and tried to kill Whale by tossing him across the room. He seriously hopes that it doesn't happen again. [[spoiler:The baby's fine, but Emma is quick to toss Whale into the wall a second time the moment she appears]].
1515* Hook unable not to say he gave Arthur a "left hook."
1516
1517[[AC:Episode 9 - The Bear King]]
1518* Red's indignant "How do you like it?" when she hits Zelena with the same sleeping powder that Zelena dosed her with earlier.
1519* Merida's mother dryly notes the witch never does thing simply.
1520-->'''Queen Elinor:''' Your magic's never very direct, is it?\
1521'''Witch:''' It gets the job done. I pride myself on satisfied customers!
1522* This gem:
1523-->'''Ruby:''' I'm not the best at relationship advice. I sort of...ate my only boyfriend...
1524-->'''Mulan:''' Yes, I think that disqualifies you.
1525
1526[[AC:Episode 10 - Broken Heart]]
1527* Hook's reaction to his new outfit: "Why do Dark Ones have to dress like monks?"
1528** Immediately after this he changes into his usual outfit, which causes "Rumple" to declare it "much better. I went for leather myself."
1529* "Rumple" offering to help train Hook so he can go and "kill...myself."
1530* Zelena's biting remark to Robin:
1531-->'''Zelena:''' Once you go green, you never go Queen.
1532** Followed by Regina [[BerserkButton just barely containing herself]] from slapping the hell out of Zelena, even restraining her hand.
1533* Merida declares she could put an arrow in Emma's knee. Immediately after which she gets knocked out (again), this time by Hook.
1534-->I used to be an adventurer like you ....
1535* Emma admits that because she thought she could do everything herself and needed to keep everyone away, she didn't have anyone to give her hope (and she looks at Mary Margaret) or tell her when she's being stupid (and she looks at Regina). To which Regina immediately says, "All right, you're being stupid. So stop it."
1536* A bit of BlackComedy when Hook [[spoiler:rips out Merlin's heart]], courtesy of "Rumple":
1537-->"Careful, dearie. That's the oldest [[spoiler:heart]] in all the lands... let's cut it open and count the rings!"
1538
1539[[AC:Episode 11 - Swan Song]]
1540* Zelena, feet propped up on the desk, goes through a variety of green shades to decide what color to redecorate Regina's office in.
1541* Emma relating her plan.
1542-->'''Mary Margaret:''' You're going to ''Hell?''
1543-->'''Emma:''' TheUnderworld.
1544-->'''David:''' [[SarcasmMode That's quite a distinction.]]
1545
1546[[AC:Episode 12 - Souls of the Departed]]
1547* The Blind Witch is shown working the counter at the Underworld version of Storybrooke.
1548-->'''Witch:''' What can I get you? Gingerbread or children? Kidding, but the gingerbread is actually not bad.
1549* Henry Sr. asks the Mirror to contact Cora in Wonderland but the Mirror refuses on "I don't have a death wish."
1550* When Gold produces the potion to pour on Hook's grave, he calls it by its proper Gaelic name (pronounced flawlessly of course). Regina's response?
1551-->'''Regina:''' That's a mouthful.
1552* Very dark humor, but the scene at Regina's birthday party where there's an absolutely ridiculous jester trying to make Regina laugh. He gets her to make a wish on her (black!) cake, and asks what her wish was.
1553-->'''Regina:''' For you to be funny. It didn't come true. ''(kills him)''
1554* While it's meant to be dark, it's also hysterical that Cora's idea of Hell is to spend eternity as...a poor mill worker.
1555* Henry dubs the Underworld mission Operation Firebird. Emma wonders if it's referring to the mythological bird, or the car.
1556* The Mirror gets a good line after Cora takes Henry Sr. to Wonderland with her.
1557-->'''Mirror:''' Well, you've still got me.
1558
1559[[AC:Episode 13 - Labor of Love]]
1560* Snow finds Hercules' grave stone.
1561-->'''Snow:''' He was a friend.
1562-->'''David:''' ...Define friend.
1563-->'''Snow:''' Jealous?
1564-->'''David:''' Well, it's not every day my wife says she was friends with a god.
1565-->'''Snow:''' Demigod.
1566* Regina calls the Blind Witch "Childmuncher." They go back and forth on Regina causing the Witch's death with Regina just shrugging it as "you stole my apple, what did you expect?"
1567* Cruella says she wants to go back to the real world.
1568-->'''Cruella:''' I miss it. The glitz, the glamour, the gin, the music...the gin.
1569* When Mary Margaret says she's trying to be practical on a situation, Regina laughs "Since when are ''you'' practical?"
1570* Hercules casually moving giant anchors around as Snow talks with him.
1571** The look on Herc's face when Mary Margaret mentions that she's a grandma and tells him it's a long story. He is clearly not seeing that at all.
1572
1573[[AC:Episode 14 - Devil's Due]]
1574* Rumple tracks down Milah in The Underworld and gets his DeadpanSnarker on:
1575-->'''Milah:''' How did you find me?\
1576'''Rumplestiltskin:''' Well, you are standing in the middle of Main Street. I must say, I love the irony of your job. You, looking after children, keeping them safe, giving them clothes.
1577* Still later...
1578-->'''Milah:''' I'm supposed to be watching the children.
1579-->'''Rumplestiltskin:''' Well, they're dead anyway.
1580* Rumple recapping the history of Emma, Baelfire, Hook, Milah, and himself for the two women.
1581-->'''Rumplestiltskin:''' There's someone I'd like you to meet. This is Milah, my ex-wife. And Hook's ex, also. She's also Baelfire's mother, of course. Emma knew him as Neal. They had a torrid affair, which resulted in a scandalous teenage pregnancy. In prison.
1582-->'''Milah:''' ''(to Emma)'' So, you were with my former lover ''and'' my son?
1583-->'''Rumplestiltskin:''' I'm sure we're gonna laugh ourselves sick about all this one day. I suggest you follow me before this gets even more awkward.
1584* Gold leads Emma and Milah to a house.
1585-->'''Emma:''' So, what, the gates of Hell are in my house?
1586-->'''Gold:''' As was the stone of Excalibur. The pirate has a knack for targeting real estate with hidden value.
1587* Cruella showing off her coat.
1588-->'''Cruella:''' I'm not saying it's Bambi's iconic dead mother. And I'm not saying it's not.
1589* Even Cruella gets a chuckle about Regina calling the place "Underbrooke."
1590
1591[[AC:Episode 15 - The Brothers Jones]]
1592* Snow noting how much David and James are alike, David asking if "we kiss the same" and then wincing he doesn't want to know.
1593* The look of horror on David's face when Cruella kisses him, thinking he's James.
1594* Regina talking to Henry when he argues about being left alone by Emma.
1595-->'''Regina:''' Don't argue with your mother. Or your mother.
1596* The idea that Cruella wasn't fooled for a second by David pretending to be James and was just going along with it to have some fun.
1597* Hades shows his flaming hair to Liam.
1598-->'''Liam:''' You're a demon!
1599-->'''Hades:''' Technically, I'm a god. Lots of people make that mistake.
1600* David talking to Henry about his mood by noting his issues with his own brother.
1601-->'''Henry:''' Please don't make this a lesson.
1602-->'''David:''' Too late.
1603
1604[[AC:Episode 16 - Our Decay]]
1605* Zelena scoffing at Belle threatening her.
1606-->'''Zelena:''' What are you going to do? Smite me with your book learning?
1607* Hades showing up at the Emerald City.
1608-->'''Zelena:''' Who the hell are you?
1609-->'''Hades:''' Who the hell am I? A far more appropriate question than you can imagine.
1610* Zelena using her broom to sweep up the ashes of a munchkin she fried.
1611* Snow freaking out in the diner.
1612-->'''Snow:''' We're regulars in the diner in Hell.
1613* The idea of the breath of the living being popular in the Underworld black market.
1614* Hauntings being done by phone.
1615* Regina looking gloriously happy to see Zelena in the Underworld, assuming she's dead. Then looking downright bummed to hear she's not.
1616* Zelena complaining about the name of her daughter.
1617-->'''Zelena:''' "Probably something dreadful like Brittany or Nancy or...oh God, not Marian."
1618* Zelena calling a bicycle a broom with wheels.
1619
1620[[AC:Episode 17 - Her Handsome Hero]]
1621* In the Underworld, the master hunter Gaston is now working at a pet shelter.
1622* Hades noting Gaston's issues with Belle and sympathizes as he's had "girl troubles" himself.
1623* Belle when Gold talks about not finding a solution.
1624-->'''Belle:''' So when you try something nefarious, it's a smashing success but when you try for something good, you fail?
1625* Gold's latest betrayal of Belle's trust is surprisingly hilarious. He promises not to go after Gaston if she tells him what Hades' propsed deal is, and then once she does...
1626-->'''Gold:''' Belle, I truly do want to be the man you deserve. Just...''not today.'' (poofs away to go after Gaston)
1627* Regina finding the gang hiding in her vault with Hook holding a knife at her.
1628-->'''Regina:''' Glad to see your reflexes are better than your sense of style.
1629* There's something [[DarkHumor weirdly funny]] about Gold's lame excuse for killing Gaston (which he neglected to mention to Belle).
1630-->'''Belle:''' So, you killed Gaston, my fiancé, and never thought to tell me?
1631-->'''Gold:''' It was an arranged marriage! I was doing you a favor!
1632
1633[[AC:Episode 18 - Ruby Slippers]]
1634* Zelena complaining "How am I supposed to become mother material if you keep interfering?"
1635* Zelena shrugging off cursing Dorothy. "Sorry I'm good at what I do."
1636* Regina telling Zelena she can come back from her cursing Dorothy.
1637-->'''Regina:''' Just because you made one bad move...or thirty...
1638* Snow tells of the Blind Witch bottling David's breath, Emma baffled as to why.
1639-->'''Snow:''' She used to roast children, you really want to know the answer to that?
1640* The Blind Witch smells Red coming into the diner and immediately telling her, "No dogs allowed."
1641
1642[[AC:Episode 19 - Sisters]]
1643* Regina and Zelena snapping at each other about her "date" with Hades.
1644-->'''Regina:''' Next time, tell your boyfriend to pick you up in something less chrome.
1645* Zelena defending herself.
1646-->'''Regina:''' I stopped giving you a pass after...well, everything you've done.
1647-->'''Zelena:''' Don't act like my mother, I already have someone who failed at that job.
1648* Regina telling the gang about Hades and Zelena.
1649-->'''Regina:''' She's not thinking rationally, which for her is a big problem.
1650* Cruella shows up for the meeting of Emma, Robin and James.
1651-->'''Cruella:''' Why is everything in the woods with you people?!
1652** She then punches Emma and remarks "that's for killing me."
1653** Emma's look of disgust when she and James start flirting.
1654* The sight of young Regina and Zelena playing dress-up in gowns and makeup.
1655* When Zelena tosses the magic water away and calls out Regina, Regina has a hysterical "ah, nuts" expression on her face.
1656* Zelena shrugging off Belle cursing herself and ''roasting Gold''.
1657-->'''Zelena:''' If Belle preferred eternal slumber to one more moment with you, that's hardly my fault. I'd say her judgement's improving.
1658
1659[[AC:Episode 20 - Firebird]]
1660* Hades literally has to force himself to say he needs the gang's help.
1661* When Regina demands they help Zelena, Hades scoffs "you've been the devoted sister for what, three hours now?"
1662* In flashbacks, Emma tries to ask the cook at a roadside diner about her origins.
1663-->'''Emma:''' Maybe they were a regular customer?
1664-->'''Cook:''' Our food's not that good, honey.
1665
1666[[AC:Episode 21 - Last Rites]]
1667* Arthur escaped because [[IdiotBall Merida left Sleepy guarding him.]] Snow naturally calls her out.
1668* Arthur races down the rainy bridge and literally slides on the ground to Hades, who just offers a nonchalant "hello there."
1669* Arthur naturally doesn't take well to finding out he's in the Underworld, yelling "no!" several times.
1670-->'''Hook:''' Denial, grief, anger, can we just get to acceptance?
1671* The Blind Witch's immediate reaction to seeing Hook and Arthur walk into her diner again is to ask if they want a table for two.
1672* Cruella refers to Hook and Arthur as "a stubble sandwich."
1673
1674[[AC:Episode 22 - Only You]]
1675* When Zelena is about to wave her wand to send Merida and others back to their land, Snow asks if she can do it without a giant green tornado. Zelena looks a bit put out. "Heroes."
1676** And immediately before that Zelena corrects Snow by saying that it's her, not them, who is conjuring the portal.
1677* Emma wary when Regina wants to poke her with a needle.
1678-->'''Regina:''' What, you're worried I'll send you into eternal slumber on a bus bench?

1684* Regina less upset about Henry running off with Violet and more on "they have a song?"

1686
1687[[AC:Episode 23 - An Untold Story]]
1688* Rumplestiltskin orders room service at the hotel, only to have the food taken back, and to keep a "sterling silver" platter. He also tips the staff $100 and warns, "things might get messy here..." sounds like he's going to do something freaky with the platter!

Henry especially looks ready to run out of the room. Snow, on the other hand, has a look of "I knew it!" on her face.
1764
1765[[AC:Episode 8 - I'll Be Your Mirror]]
1766* Henry complains about Violet standing him up at John Hughes movie night.
1767* Zelena is in fine form clashing with Aladdin over the Shears.

1769-->'''Aladdin:''' Okay, I don't like this one.
1770* Regina flashes on a mirror that shows Sneezy dancing and singing.

1788
1789[[AC:Episode 10 - Wish You Were Here]]
1790* The Evil Queen making Aladdin make her a martini. When she starts hitting on him, he offers a flat "ew."
1791** Not just a martini, an ''appletini''. Which Aladdin notes is "a little on the nose", even for her.
1792* Seeing a statue of the Charmings in victory over the Evil Queen, Regina just offers a grinning "seriously?!"
1793** Indeed, much of Regina's reaction to this world is less fear and more pure amusement at the elder-looking Charmings and how happy it all is. Her reaction to seeing the dwarves is "HEY! HEY! DWARVES!" in a happy voice.
1794* Her reaction at the Fantasy version of Rumple is "oh, brother..."
1795* Even as she's playing up being the Evil Queen, Regina can't help smiling with pride seeing Henry about to become a knight.

1800* When a flash of light erupts from Granny's, Grumpy runs off yelling "we've been portaled!"
1801** The Evil Queen just raises an eyebrow and goes "That was ''quick''".
1802* Regina teases Emma on being a "singing princess." Emma replies that she wasn't singing... that Regina ''saw''. This becomes even funnier after "The Song in Your Heart".
1803* Emma is annoyed at Regina making a deal with Rumple, ranting on how he could be "razing fake villages!" Rumple gives them a bean and then says "I'm off to raze some fake villages."
1804* Emma in the fantasy world. She is so weak willed and incompetent that it is hilarious.
1805
1806[[AC:Episode 11 - Tougher Than The Rest]]
1807* When Regina enters the tavern looking for Robin, everyone clears out for the Evil Queen. Regina just gives a tired sigh.
1808* The sight of the Wish!Version of Hook: Older, bearded, constantly drunk and a beer belly.
1809* Hook's utterly pathetic "fight" with August who gives Emma looks of "really?" when she talks of her and Jones together in the other world.
1810* Emma just knocking Hook out with a wave of her hand.
1811-->'''Emma:''' I have to get back and get him off the rum. And the desserts.

1813* Rumple tossing Regina and Robin into a cell.
1814-->'''Rumple:''' If you'll excuse me, it's been a while since I did a good flay. Tools are a little rusty.
1815* Robin is dubious about the portal dresser.
1816-->'''Robin:''' A tree?
1817-->'''August:''' A magic tree.
1818-->'''Robin:''' Oh, well, forgive me.
1819* Robin notes how Hook was "a lot more spry in your younger days." Hook immediately wonders what that means.
1820* Emma does indeed take Hook off the rum. He's on water now and Hook really wants to know why.
1821** Hook's reaction to being told to only drink water from now on was brilliant: "Water? ''For drinking?''"
1822
1823[[AC:Episode 12 - Murder Most Foul]]
1824* Robin calls an alarm clock a "demon box."
1825* Rumplestilskin cuts off James' father's talk of honoring his son with "I don't have time for maudlin stories."
1826* Regina's flustered defense of Robin's accusations when they're in her chamber of hearts.
1827* When James' father says he's looking for the prince, Pinocchio snorts "Do I look like I was carved yesterday?"
1828* Charming and Hook get to an instruction for the potion that says "Turn Counterclockwise". They have no idea whether this means turn the potion or themselves; so they do both. Also, Hook's fear the potion will actually turn them into raccoons.
1829
1830[[AC:Episode 13 - Ill Boding Patterns]]
1831* Zelena comes home with her child singing.
1832-->'''Zelena:''' This little munchkin went to market...this little munchkin ran home...''(senses someone inside and ignites a fireball)'' And this little munchkin is about to pay the price.
1833* Zelena insists on leaving with various items, including the snake Evil Queen.
1834** When Regina shows up, Zelena has a hysterically annoyed "really?" face.
1835* Robin is utterly baffled when the snake transforms into the Evil Queen and her talk of being Regina's double.
1836-->'''Robin:''' I don't care if there's seven of you! I want out of this abysmal hamlet!
1837
1838[[AC:Episode 14 - Page 23]]
1839* In flashback, Regina asking Tinker Bell, "Shouldn't you be in a tulip?"
1840** She also describes the gate to where Cupid's arrow is as "dripping with light magic."
1841* The banter of the Evil Queen and Other!Robin is fantastic.
1842-->'''Evil Queen:''' I'm royalty, not a peasant who sleeps on dirt like you.
1843-->'''Robin:''' I sleep on hay...which is on the dirt...there's a separation...never mind.
1844** He complains about being forced to dig something up when the Evil Queen can use magic and she shrugs "where's the fun in that?"
1845** She also checking him out the whole time which is heartwarming in hindsight when he proposes to her.
1846* Regina enters to tell Emma about the Evil Queen but Zelena actually takes the time to admire Emma's engagement ring.
1847* Robin is tied up as part of the Queen's trap.
1848-->'''Robin:''' This isn't quite what I imagined when I offered my services. Unless I misread the situation...and things are about to take a turn.
1849** He manages to free his ropes...only for them to retie themselves thanks to magic.
1850* The oddly funny sight of Regina and the Evil Queen calmly picking up the pieces of the room after their fight.
1851* When the Evil Queen shows up at the tavern, Robin asks "if you're going to kidnap me again, can you at least let me finish my ale first?"
1852
1853[[AC:Episode 15 - A Wondrous Place]]
1854* Aladdin asks Jasmine "how many times are you almost going to kiss me?"

1857* The club the girls hit is called "Aesop's Tables."
1858* Ariel freaks out on the magic carpet.
1859-->'''Ariel:''' Is this rug flying?
1860-->'''Jasmine:''' It's a carpet and yes.
1861-->'''Ariel:''' Well, it's clearly a rug and can you put us down?
1862** Ariel sums up the ride as "something interesting I'll never do again." Until she thinks she's about to meet Eric (who she only met and danced with once at this point) and suggests they could circle on it one more time.
1863* Several of Ariel's odd sayings, such as "Son of a fish!" and "Ah! I'm an oyster head!"
1864* Hook is sick and tired of listening to Aladdin and Jasmine talking about each other to him.
1865-->'''Hook:''' [[LampshadeHanging For two people in love]], [[PoorCommunicationKills you are terrible at communication skills]].
1866* A drunken Snow yells at some Vikings for leaving without paying.
1867-->'''Regina:''' Do you ever ''not'' tattle?
1868** Snow mocks the Vikings by putting her fingers up at her head like their helmets.
1869** Snow grabs a knife...and throws it onto a dartboard, telling the Vikings "whoever loses, pays both tabs." Emma and Regina just stare in utter amazement before Emma declares this is what she needs to distract her from [[BuffySpeak "that thing I need distracting from."]]
1870*** According to a blackboard in the episode when Emma is talking to Aesop, Snow wins, having "50" and "50" as her scores while the Vikings have "7" and "19" along with other various low numbers.
1871** Let's just sum it up and say Drunk!Snow is a walking CMOF.
1872-->'''Snow:''' You've got to try this. They say it's "artesianal" which I think means it's strong.
1873-->'''Emma:''' How many has she had?
1874-->'''Regina:''' Would you believe that's her first?
1875* Hook on the island hut.
1876-->'''Hook:''' I never thought we'd find Jafar in an off-season tiki bar.
1877* Genie Jafar. His time imprisoned in a bottle has clearly caused some SanitySlippage, and he's delightfully [[LargeHam hammier]] as a result.
1878* Jafar shrugs off the shrunken Agrabah as "a bit smaller for trade agreements..."
1879* Aladdin looks into the ring with, "[[ICanSeeMyHouseFromHere I can see my hovel from here!]]"
1880* Once Agrabah is restored, Ariel asks if she can keep the ring.
1881* Emma hears Hook's shellphone ringing and calling her name from inside a chest. The look on her face screams "I am ''definitely'' drunker than I thought. I'm hearing a ''box'' call my name."
1882* Ariel has a defence weapon in her hut. A ball with forks sticking out of it that swings down to ''impale'' people. Both creepy, horrifying and funny all at once.
1883
1884[[AC:Episode 16 - Mother's Little Helper]]
1885* Emma and Snow confront Gold on Gideon.
1886-->'''Emma:''' He has a death wish. Meaning if he messes with me again, I'm going to kill him.
1887-->'''Snow:''' And I'll help. I've been looking for some mother-daughter bonding.
1888* Blackbeard beats Hook in a card game for the ''Jolly Roger'' but Hook reveals it's in Storybrooke.
1889-->'''Blackbeard:''' You lied to me!
1890-->'''Hook:''' And you had six aces in your deck! I'm not as drunk as your other opponents!
1891-->'''Blackbeard:''' Well played.
1892* Isaac wants his freedom to New York in exchange for help, including...
1893-->'''Isaac:''' I want a sports car. A Porsche.
1894-->'''Regina:''' You have to be kidding.
1895-->'''Isaac:''' Actually, a Lamborghini.
1896-->'''Regina:''' I'll run that sports car over your head until it's crushed like a pumpkin if you don't help us.
1897-->'''Isaac:''' Sports car, my freedom, New York....oh yes. ''Hamilton'' tickets.
1898** Later, he's annoyed to find they gave him a crappy station wagon.
1899-->'''Isaac:''' So no on the ''Hamilton'' tickets? Not surprised, no magic is that powerful.
1900* More BlackComedy but after she crushes a spider Roderick, The Black Fairy snaps that "his death" is on Gideon "and on my boot..."
1901* Emma states she's okay after the giant spider attack but "I'll never look at Spider-Man the same way again..."
1902* When listing off things she has had to do to fix her evil self's actions, Regina mentions "[[NoodleIncident letting Dr. Dolittle out of that cage]]". Given how she tells Henry not to ask, what the Evil Queen did probably wasn't pretty.
1903
1904[[AC:Episode 17 - Awake]]
1905* Waking up from his coma, Charming goes to see Leroy working as a janitor.
1906-->'''Charming:''' Grumpy!
1907-->'''Leroy:''' Who you calling grumpy?
1908-->'''Charming:''' I need you to get the other dwarves together.
1909-->'''Leroy:''' Now you're mocking my height?!
1910** Snow has to explain David is a "runaway from the mental ward."
1911* We get a shot of the old Regina when she reacts to David being gone.
1912-->'''Regina:''' What part of "coma" is unclear?!
1913* May also count as NightmareFuel considering what it means for the people of Storybrooke, but consider the fact that Pixie flowers grow as a counteracting measure when a great evil is present. When Regina was the BigBad in charge of Storybrooke (specifically 18 years before the Dark Curse was broken) a single flower grew to counteract her evil (and at the time she had been in charge for 10 years). How bad is the Black Fairy? All she has to do is ''physically be'' in Storybrooke and the snowy forest ''grows a giant field of the things.''
1914
1915[[AC:Episode 18 - Where Bluebirds Fly]]
1916* Emma and Hook are making out only to be interrupted by Snow bursting in.
1917-->'''Hook:''' Your mother has a key, good to know.
1918* Also in rapid succession we have Snow asking if she was interrupting anything, to which [[StereoFibbing Emma said "no" and Hook "yes"]]; Emma claiming they were just "making pancakes" (itself a great ShoutOut to the UnusualEuphemism RunningGag (begun in "The Cricket Game") of "making tacos"); and Snow saying she would let them get back to that while Hook says he's lost his appetite.
1919* Snow reveals she's been working on an Emma wedding plan since "the First Curse."
1920* Zelena is in wonderful form this episode.
1921** She refers to the Black Fairy as "a noir-colored nit."
1922** She just shrugs at the comatose Blue Fairy with "Never liked her anyway."
1923** "There's a village of munchkins I still have to terrorize tonight." It's the bored way she says it that sells it.
1924** "The last person who talked to me like that is opening bananas with his feet!"
1925** When the Lion grabs the Woodsman, Zelena just sighs.
1926-->'''Zelena:''' No one hurts people in these woods but me!
1927* Hook wants to have the wedding on the ''Jolly Roger'' but Henry points out how "half the guests will be heaving over the side."
1928* Charming doesn't want to have the wedding at Granny's. When Snow pushes the great memories they've had, David brings up her first date with Whale.
1929-->'''Snow:''' [[RunningGag We were cursed!]]
1930** Emma and Hook's baffled reactions to their argument are great.
1931* Snow and David's constant arguing about the wedding venue.
1932* The Black Fairy gets an epic burn on Regina.
1933-->'''Black Fairy:''' So you're the witch who cast my Dark Curse. No wonder it failed so pathetically.
1934* Snow snaps about David being so reluctant to go through with the wedding.
1935-->'''Snow:''' If this because of Hook because that ship has sailed and there's a pirate on it.
1936* Hook sums up the situation nicely.
1937-->'''Hook:''' How is it even when your sister isn't the villain we're fighting, she's still the villain we're fighting?
1938* Emma and Henry's reactions to Charming mentioning Whale.
1939-->'''Charming:''' (to Snow) What about your first date with Whale?
1940'''Emma:''' Dad!
1941'''Henry:''' Ouch
1942* Henry's reaction to Hook and Emma flirting with each other, he looks grossed out.
1943* Hook's expression when David mentions Emma is a princess. Hook looks amazed and has the expression of, 'So I'm gonna be a prince then? Cool'.
1944* Snow saying that if Emma wanted to get married in their bathroom would be perfect. The whole scene with Snow and Charming is very amusing:
1945-->'''David:''' You can't really believe this place is good enough. This isn't some town meeting about parking regulations, it's our daughter's wedding!
1946'''Snow:''' And if she wanted to get married in our bathroom, it would be perfect and exactly what it is supposed to be!
1947* Emma and Hook's reactions to Charming and Snow arguing:
1948-->'''Emma:''' So, elopement?
1949'''Hook:''' Eye, I'll bring the rum.
1950
1951[[AC:Episode 19 - The Black Fairy]]
1952* Everyone is disgusted Gold is waking up the Blue Fairy with a baby dragon egg.
1953-->'''Emma:''' That's dark even for the Dark One.
1954* Zelena complains about her lack of magic with Regina relating she understands as she went without it during the Dark Curse.
1955-->'''Regina:''' Turning lights on by hand...
1956-->'''Zelena:''' Barbaric. And exhausting.
1957** Zelena also complains about the crib she's putting up.
1958-->'''Zelena:''' I've just been soundly defeated by Sniglar.
1959-->'''Regina:''' Sniglar?
1960-->'''Zelena:''' I didn't name it, Ikea did. And if those Swedes can best me...
1961* Regina then gives Zelena driving lessons. HilarityEnsues.
1962-->'''Regina:''' You need to learn to drive the other kind of stick.
1963* Zelena is surprised Regina wants her to take Henry with her out of town if things get bad.
1964-->'''Zelena:''' You want me to raise him?
1965-->'''Regina:''' Actually, I expect him to raise you.
1966** This is funny enough Zelena herself laughs!
1967* Granny is ticked when the gang start tearing the diner apart looking for the wand.
1968-->'''Regina:''' It's important!
1969-->'''Granny:''' So is the lunch rush!
1970* Where is this incredibly powerful artifact? Under the jukebox.
1971* The gang ''finally'' bring up all the various shape-changers using spells in town.
1972-->'''Snow:''' We need a safeword.
1973* Regina is about to be killed by the Black Fairy. Cue Zelena, who's spent the entire episode struggling to learn to drive, ''running over the Black Fairy'' with her green station wagon; the station wagon comes out unscathed as do Zelena and Regina - the Black Fairy however, isn't so lucky and feathers go flying ''literally everywhere''.
1974-->'''Zelena:''' You know, this whole driving thing is easy when you're actually ''trying'' to hit something.
1975* Henry comes home where Hook is waiting.
1976-->'''Hook:''' Henry, just who I was looking for!
1977-->'''Henry:''' That sounds ominous.
1978* Emma comes down right as Hook is finishing giving Henry his "most important mission ever" as best man.
1979-->'''Hook:''' You guard those with your life. Because if you don't, your mother will kill you.
1980-->'''Emma:''' Kill him for what?
1981-->'''Hook:''' Nothing, luv. Merely a talk between men. ''(Emma gives him a look that shows she clearly isn't buying it)''
1982
1983[[AC:Episode 20 - The Song In Your Heart]]
1984* The RunningGag of people acting in utter confusion at first when they start breaking into song.
1985* Snow is mystified by the effects of the new wish/curse. [[IncomingHam Enter Charming]], [[LargeHam flinging open the door, and announcing]] "I sound good!"
1986* Regina's reaction.
1987-->'''Mirror:''' Snow and Charming made a wish/now everything has changed.
1988-->'''Regina:''' Oh, great now you're singing too/this whole thing is deranged.
1989* Emma is happy to have Snow's wedding dress until it suddenly turns black. Enter the Black Fairy.
1990-->'''Black Fairy:''' I was never a fan of white weddings.
1991* ''Zelena'' criticizing the Black Fairy having "a flair for the dramatic." Also, the look on her face when the Black Fairy shows up and starts monologuing. It's less "Oh, god, shoot me," (like Regina's was when the Charmings start singing) and more "Excuse me, ''I'' do the monologues here, thank you!"
1992* Charming noting Hook isn't a fan of his wedding attire.
1993-->'''Charming:''' Something with leather?
1994* The Charmings wonder if Smee is the captain of the ''Jolly Roger''.
1995-->'''Smee:''' I'm flattered as I always thought I exuded an air of authority...
1996* When Hook starts singing about revenge, Snow asks on who. "Just wait for the second verse, love."
1997* Regina confronts Rumple in his cell telling him it's time to give answers and "start singing!" The music builds as Rumple gives a spin...and then just giggles.
1998-->'''Rumple:''' Sorry, dearie, but the Dark One doesn't sing. I'd rather gouge my eyes out with a rusty fork!
1999** Made even funnier when you know that this is Robert Carlyle's actual views on performing in a musical episode.
2000* There are a lot of happy and hope-filled songs in this episode. One of them is Zelena flying, dancing and singing about Regina's pain and possible death while scaring Munchkins.
2001** After the first verse, a chorus appear during her song; if there is only her and Munchkins here, who is singing the chorus? The terrified Munchkins are really singing the chorus while Zelena is destroying their village.
2002** Keep in mind that Zelena is in Oz, so the wish shouldn't be affecting her. That means her song is completly spontaneous.
2003* When the Charmings begin their duet before her, Regina gets a look of "Oh, God, shoot me."
2004* The Charmings try to keep their song going after Regina stops the spell, resulting in them both awkwardly just saying the next line and trailing off.
2005
2006[[AC:Episodes 21&22 - The Final Battle]]
2007* Emma scoffing at Henry describing her wedding.
2008-->'''Emma:''' Captain Hook? Who officiated, Tinkerbell?
2009-->'''Henry''', ''grinning'': No, Jiminy Cricket. It was ''awesome''.
2010* Zelena's wonderfully epic eye roll when Regina and the Evil Queen reunite. Followed by a bigger one when they compliment the other on how great they look in these outfits.
2011* Hook wakes up to see Snow and Jasmine looking down on him.
2012-->'''Hook:''' Hello, mummy.
2013-->'''Jasmine:''' Mummy?
2014-->'''Snow:''' There was a wedding...And that's still taking time to get used to.
2015** Earlier, when Hook and David are trying to get to the magic bean:
2016-->'''Hook:''' You trust this to a pirate?
2017-->'''David:''' No, I trust my son.
2018-->'''Hook:''' (''arches eyebrow'')
2019-->'''David:''' (''awkward'') ...In-law.

2021
2022[[folder:Season 7]]
2023[[AC:Episode 1 - Hyperion Heights]]
2024* Henry meets Cinderella who's not happy about him wrecking her carriage and scaring off her horse.
2025-->'''Cinderella:''' It's the one with the actual head, not this headless horseless carriage.
2026* Alice is quite upset all anyone knows of her is from Wonderland.
2027-->'''Alice:''' And other places! Yeah, one weird trip and that's all anyone knows about you!
2028** Which is itself perhaps a nod to Alice's [[FirstInstallmentWins lesser-known second adventure]], ''Through the Looking Glass''.
2029* Henry has a child - presumably this means that someone gave him the sex talk. This was either Snow and Charming, Hook or Emma and Regina. Snow and Charming would have ''many'' taco innuendos, Hook would be a disaster, and Emma and Regina would be terrible too: Regina was married to a man more than double her age and Emma got pregnant at seventeen! How that man actually learned ''how'' to procreate...
2030** Maybe it was Rumple? That's a ''hilarious'' thought - the Dark One, sex talk giver...
2031
2032[[AC:Episode 2 - Pirate's Life]]
2033* Weaver and Hook meet a glaring Victoria.
2034-->'''Weaver:''' Well, that's quite a look. You want him just to wilt or burst into flames?
2035* Hook's annoyance at meeting his Wish counterpart.
2036
2037[[AC:Episode 3 - The Garden of Forking Paths]]
2038* Cursed or not, Regina/Roni still has her snark on.
2039-->'''Jacinda:''' The Community Garden is in trouble.
2040-->'''Roni:''' If I had a nickel for every customer who said that.
2041* Henry is impressed at Roni "a leader of the people."
2042-->'''Roni:''' Yes, I'm a regular queen.
2043
2044[[AC:Episode 4 - Beauty]]
2045* Mr. Gold declares that as long as Gideon "ends up with cake on his face", then it's been a good party for their one-year-old son.
2046* Apparently magic can develop photographs as it's implied Belle and Rumple never returned to our world after they left for their trips, and they have many photographs in frames on their mantelpiece. Apparently magic literally ''can'' do anything.
2047** The pictures are all of Rumple holding Belle in his arms on the threshold of the buildings behind them, just like normal married couples do on their wedding night. This implies they've ''had sex in every building they've travelled to.''
2048* Tilly is wearing a mask of a rabbit with a monocle while working on a Rubix cube.
2049-->'''Weaver:''' What's the point of an unsolvable puzzle?
2050-->'''Tilly:''' What's the point of a ''solvable'' one?
2051* Ninety nine percent of Tilly's words, including wondering if the good man is "behind the cop -- or, wait, is it the beast?", mean that she's basically going around with a sign that says "I AM ALICE AND HE IS RUMPLESTILTSKIN! EVERYONE WAKE UP NOW!"
2052* Ivy sees Jacinda come in and grabs the phone.
2053-->'''Ivy:''' Security, we have a trash situation.
2054* Victoria's reaction when Tilly shows up in her car and has to mace her off.
2055* Roni offering Henry a drink she calls "the Poison Apple." [[spoiler:Apparently Drizella has as wicked a sense of humor as Regina herself did when creating cursed personas in Storybrooke--we already saw this in calling Captain Hook "Rogers", her mother "Belfry", her stepsister Jacinda (as in the hyacinth, her favorite flower and color of her dress), Alice as Tilly, and Gold as Weaver. Here she's not only referencing Regina's Evil Queen status, she's doing so by calling on the very information Regina will give her when training her two episodes from now, twisting the knife after Regina only revealed this to keep her away from darkness.]]
2056** Also, her dressed like a 1950's barmaid with white-haired wig. She looks astonishingly like Granny.
2057* Ivy is forced to take Lucy trick-or-treating. Her "costume" is Lucy in a skeleton outfit but with a paper bag over her head.
2058** Lucy then sends a girl dressed as Elsa over to Ivy with the paper bag over her head. Ivy is so focused on texting that she completely overlooks "Lucy" is wearing a blue dress and it's not until she talks, she realizes the switch.
2059* We see Rumple literally running into Alice in flashback. It turns out to be the same day Henry meets Cinderella as he races by them on his motorcycle. Alice just remarks on how "things are getting stranger."
2060* Weaver has been shot and lived; Hook notes that he "must be bloody immortal, mate." Uh... yes. Yes, he is. It's Rumple-freaking-Stiltskin - Immortal Dark One, Chessmaster, MagnificentBastard and King of fucking up all the shit. As if a tiny little gunshot is going to kill him.
2061
2062[[AC:Episode 5 - Greenbacks]]
2063* Victoria asks for a herbalist and Ivy wonders if she's "going on a cleanse without me."
2064** She later gets them and complains about "my hair smelling like Burning Man."
2065* Hook leaves his box of evidence with Roni.
2066-->'''Roni:''' The keg room has a strong lock. Plus my baseball bat and friendly demeanor keep away any prying eyes.
2067* Roni giving Henry a "if your mother were here this would be what she would say" speech, completely unaware she ''is doing it to her own son.''
2068** One of the pieces of advice Roni gives is to give her good tips as payment for the speech.
2069* Tiana's reaction to seeing the "Prince" turning into a frog? "Huh."
2070* The witch scaring the ''crap'' out of Ivy.
2071-->'''Ivy:''' OH!... (knocks over teapots and saucers) Damnit! (panting) ''Seriously?!'' Lurk much?!
2072-->'''Witch:''' (genuinely confused) You're the one that asked me to hide.
2073-->'''Ivy:''' (exasperated) From ''her'', from ''Roni!'' (annoyed groan)
2074* Ivy saying she needs to get the witch a stylist.
2075
2076[[AC:Episode 6 - Wake Up Call]]
2077* Regina believes she's gotten away with teaching Drizella without Tremaine knowing. Rumple, however, being his usual self, helpfully points out that Regina would ''never'' have gotten away with it with Cora, so why does she think ''this'' time is different? Regina, for her part, looks rather annoyed at the fact that, once again, Rumple is ''right.''
2078* Roni's reaction to being called "the Evil Queen." involves grabbing a baseball bat, convinced this is Victoria playing a game.
2079* Ivy claims that she has "surpassed" Roni in Hyperion Heights. Except she ''clearly'' hasn't because she's embittered and unloved and lashing out at everyone and everything. Sure, Regina/Roni may be a little prickly every now and then, but, ultimately, she has her happy ending.
2080
2081[[AC:Episode 7 - Eloise Gardner]]
2082* Wish!Regina explains Snow and Charming stole her magic. Smee remarks "I did ''not'' see that coming" and Regina tries her usual choking move...and nothing happens, causing her to sob.
2083* Smee explaining they're lost as "my navigation skills aren't that good on land."
2084* The sheer incredulity of a ''giant gnome statue'' coming to life to attack Hook and Smee in the garden.
2085** The fact that it is ''still'' not the weirdest thing to have happened on the show...
2086* Victoria arrives to give Gothel food, rather angry at Lucy. Gothel just ''trolls'' her by asking "Lucy's still stubbornly clinging to her belief?" in a slightly mocking tone.
2087* Victoria storming down with Ivy's shoes covered in dirt.
2088-->'''Victoria:''' Why is women's footwear the constant bane of my existence?
2089* Hook and Henry waiting for Alice.
2090-->'''Hook:''' You'd think a woman who hawks watches wouldn't be late.
2091
2092[[AC:Episode 8 - Pretty in Blue]]
2093* Ella and Henry spar with swords.
2094-->'''Ella:''' I thought you were taught by a pirate.
2095-->'''Henry:''' Yeah, one who doesn't cheat half as much as you.
2096* In a callback to the season premiere, Henry introduces Alice as "from Wonderland...and other places."
2097* Henry brings up how his grandparents always used the line of "I will always find you."
2098-->'''Ella:''' How often did they get separated?
2099-->'''Henry:''' You'd be surprised.
2100* Lucy explains that her "father" Nick is just part of the curse and he's "the Kathryn Nolan."
2101-->'''Henry:''' What if I'm the Kathryn? And I'm perfectly okay with that.
2102-->'''Lucy:''' ''No one'' wants to be the Kathryn.
2103
2104[[AC:Episode 9 - One Little Tear]]
2105* Ivy visits Victoria in prison.
2106-->'''Ivy:''' Orange looks better on [[Series/OrangeIsTheNewBlack the women on that Netflix show.]]
2107-->'''Victoria:''' My wardrobe has much in common with you, as my daughter. In both cases, I'm stuck with what was thrust upon me.
2108* Sabine opens the door to find Victoria there.
2109-->'''Sabine:''' Jacinda, there's a fugitive at the door.
2110* The fact that Rumple and Gothel are as clear as daylight with one another - these two are deadly, dangerous and on equal footing so there's no need to beat around the bush: Gothel knows that Rumple knows that she's using Drizella and Rumple knows that Gothel knows that Rumple knows that she is using Drizella.
2111
2112[[AC:Episode 10 - The Eighth Witch]]
2113* Zelena, the Wicked Witch of the West, is now...a spin instructor at a San Francisco yoga studio. She is, rather understandably, pissed when she wakes up.
2114-->'''Zelena:''' I was cursed...to be a hippie!
2115* Before she breaks the Curse on her, Regina is on the receiving end of some good old slamming from Zelena.
2116-->'''Zelena:''' This is my happy place and you are the epicenter of my unhappiness!
2117* Zelena and Robin are living on Emerald Acres Farm, complete with a "no place like home" sign on the gate that Regina has to smile at.
2118* Zelena explains she can't just leave as she has a life and shows Regina her wedding gown. Regina has a priceless "Oh, come ''on''!" look on her face.
2119* Thinking through the relationship between Robin and Alice can lead to a pretty funny bit of {{Irony}}: ''Literature/AliceInWonderland'' is apparently the True Love of the granddaughter of ''the Queen of Hearts''.
2120
2121[[AC:Episode 11 - Secret Garden]]
2122* We open with a trio of women in hoods chanting over a bubbling cauldron, seemingly the Coven...and then the sound of a cell phone goes off. One pulls off her hood to answer, revealing them to be Robin and some of her teenage friends practising.
2123* Robin and Zelena having a good old-fashioned mother-daughter argument, complete with a "you can't control me" line.
2124** And given how petulant Zelena could be even as an adult in the past, having to deal with a sarcastic magical teenager is ''exactly'' what she deserves.
2125* Zelena calls Hook "Nook" as in "New Hook."
2126-->'''Zelena:''' Apparently, both versions are as thick as wood.
2127* Hook volunteers to join Zelena to find Gothel for poisoning his heart.
2128-->'''Zelena:''' So you need a heart. Maybe we should get the Scarecrow to join us and call it a day.
2129* Victoria manages to escape the pit by throwing one of her shoes to activate the pulley rope above.
2130-->'''Victoria:''' Why use manual labor when a Louis Vitton will do?
2131* It turns out Zelena used to own Roni's bar and is complaining about the redecoration.
2132-->'''Zelena:''' It used to have peanut shells and sawdust on the floor.
2133-->'''Regina:''' Yeah, it was a dump.
2134-->'''Zelena:''' It was a dive which is an honorable aesthetic.
2135* Hook is looking in the woods for an item and naturally, is lost despite his map.
2136-->'''Zelena:''' Unless you're looking for the woodland home of a couple of swirly chipmunks, I'd say your map's broken!
2137* Mixed with Heartwarming, Robin is amazed Zelena would do something as insane as nearly sacrificing herself to save her.
2138-->'''Zelena:''' I am your mother. It's my job to do insane things for you!
2139* When the portal first opens to let Zelena through, Henry stands up from holding his infant daughter to be with Hook and Regina. By the time the scene continues, after which only seconds could have passed, he has already sat back down, seemingly trying to avoid whatever witch drama his cousin has gotten herself into.
2140* Robin compares herself to Blue Ivy and Zelena to Beyonce. When she says she wants to be more like her father, Zelena notes that "being Jay-Z is almost respectable."
2141
2142[[AC:Episode 12 - A Taste of the Heights]]
2143* Just the idea of Regina having had a fling with Dr Facilier... while the Evil Queen. So while she was seeking revenge on Snow and Charming, she was ''also'' doing the do with Facilier!
2144* Hook notes Naveen hunting "the crocodile."
2145-->'''Naveen:''' It's an alligator.
2146-->'''Hook:''' What's the difference, both devour you given the chance.
2147** Hook also notes after Naveen's arrogance that he's starting to root for the alligator.
2148* Zelena isn't at all surprised Gold remembers who he is.
2149-->'''Zelena:''' The Dark One in denim.
2150* Regina looks at a mark on the body of the doctor and how it looks like tattoo removal. Both Zelena and Rumple give her "really?" smirks.
2151-->'''Regina:''' Apparently in my cursed persona, I made some poor decisions. I mean, who loves Def Leppard lyrics that much? Had to be done.
2152** Upon figuring out the doctor was a member of the Coven (and it's witches like her who are therefore the targets of a killer), Zelena mutters "well, pour some sugar on me."
2153
2154[[AC:Episode 13 - Knightfall]]
2155* Henry finding Regina who realizes her son has just uncovered her walk of shame from Dr. Facilier.
2156* In the Wish realm, Rumple is still his usual nutcase self which is delightful playing off Hook.
2157-->'''Rumple:''' I thought I smelled desperation! My speciality!
2158* Gothel loving how she knows the truth and playing with Hook.
2159* After revealing to Lucy how she's awake, Regina makes one thing clear:
2160-->'''Regina:''' Don't call me Grandma.
2161
2162[[AC:Episode 14 - The Girl in the Tower]]
2163* The beautiful MeetCute between Robin and Alice with Robin chasing her at arrowpoint into a cage trap.
2164** Robin brings up the nickname of "Nook." Alice flips it around to suggest she be called "Nobin."
2165* Regina suggest she and Lucy use walkie-talkies to communicate. After they squak with static, Regina's phone buzzes as Lucy has sent a message "Maybe we should just text."
2166* Regina's horrible lie to Zelena for Lucy being there? She's "thinking of putting in a kid's menu." In a bar.
2167* In the past, the hunter orders Alice locked up and her friend too.
2168-->'''Robin:''' Whoa, friend is a strong word, I just met the girl. ''(Alice gives a "really?" expression)''
2169* The culture clash between Alice (who's lived in a magic tower) and Robin (who's lived in Storybrooke) is adorable and leads to bits like Alice's bafflement at Robin saying she "hotwired a Bug."
2170* Regina says Zelena has "one speed: Tornado."
2171* When a frustrated Robin expresses disbelief that Alice managed to keep up with her, pointing out that she ran track for three years, Alice retorts that she once outran a Bandersnatch. Robin's only response is to not-so-subtly [[ShipTease let her eyes wander]].
2172* A BrickJoke from the previous episode: Remember Regina saying she didn't want Lucy to call her 'Grandma'? It's about an hour later and ''Lucy's already breaking that rule''. Not doing as you're told and not listening to your elders is ''definitely'' a Mills trait - Cora has it, Regina has it, Zelena has it, Robin has it and, even though neither of them are biologically related to the family, both Henry ''and'' Lucy have it.
2173
2174[[AC:Episode 15 - Sisterhood]]
2175* Ivy brushes off getting a pack of chocolate hearts from the killer.
2176-->'''Ivy:''' I haven't survived this long to get killed by some chocolatier with a penchant for the dramatic.
2177* Ivy refers to the Coven as a "Supernatural sewing circle."
2178* Gretel able to use her powers to make a falling log explode into...candy gumdrops. Even Drizella has to laugh.
2179
2180[[AC:Episode 16 - Breadcrumbs]]
2181* Henry, Hook and Jacinda enter a cave, hearing growls and expect a dragon...and see a drunk villager as the real dragon left years ago.
2182* Zelena blunt about Henry still being cursed before seeing Lucy's face.
2183-->'''Zelena:''' Sorry, been a while since I was around kids.
2184-->'''Lucy:''' Yeah, you're bad at it.
2185* Hook meets with Smee and asks who else in the crew is loyal to him. He's more than a bit annoyed to find out it's Smee, the cook and "maybe One-Eyed Jack."
2186* Tilly and Margot meet again.
2187-->'''Margot:''' It's Margot. With a T.
2188-->'''Tilly:''' Targo?
2189-->'''Margot:''' Other end.
2190
2191[[AC:Episode 17 - Chosen]]
2192* The Blind Witch pushing Hansel and Gretel to eat.
2193-->'''Witch:''' Don't you know there are starving children in Arendelle!
2194* Zelena (in full green-skinned Wicked Witch glory) storms into the Blind Witch's lair.
2195-->'''Zelena:''' Might I suggest something stronger than licorice locks.
2196* Zelena complains her cursed self didn't have to worry about a killer after her.
2197-->'''Zelena:''' I mean, yes, she used organic deodorant and dabbled in freeganism. I mean, eating rubbish wasn't my finest moment but at least Kelly didn't kill a Munchkin.
2198* Zelena downs her drink with Regina.
2199-->'''Zelena:''' Here's to putting our past behind us...with a baseball bat.
2200* Zelena managing to make a [[VideoGame/CandyCrushSaga Candy Crush]] crack fighting the Witch outside the gingerbread house.
2201* Zelena noting the Jack/Hansel/Nick bit.
2202-->'''Zelena:''' Must be a bitch keeping track of your driver's licenses.
2203* Margot telling Zelena she knows her mom has a past but is okay with it.
2204-->'''Margot:''' Mob boss, right? I knew it!
2205** Not ''technically'' incorrect - do a herd of flying monkeys count as a mob?
2206
2207[[AC:Episode 18 - The Guardian]]
2208* There's something just adorable about the look on Alice's face when she rips out Faciler's heart. It's like she's thinking "wait, did I really just do that?!"
2209* Rumple nearly jumps out of his shoes when Hook comes up behind him without warning. He's clearly thinking "so ''that's'' what that feels like..."
2210
2211[[AC:Episode 19 - Flower Child]]
2212* Henry and Jacinda just baffled as to how Henry can be Lucy's dad.
2213-->'''Henry:''' Ever been to Cabo?
2214* Faciler can't believe how Lucy is able to just waltz into his office to start playing him.
2215* Henry asks if Rogers and Tilly are here for something urgent.
2216-->'''Henry:''' Are you on the run?
2217-->'''Tilly:''' Not today. But I found out my mother might be Eloise Gardner and she's either a witch or a cult leader. Or both I suppose. And that Nick guy? He was killed by voodoo magic!
2218-->'''Rogers:''' I digress, it does seem urgent.
2219* Rogers gets a tip.
2220-->'''Tilly:''' I'll tag along! Your logic and my illogic ought to crack this case wide open!
2221* Tilly seems to enjoy a stakeout.
2222-->'''Tilly:''' I get to do nothing with somebody for a change!
2223
2224[[AC:Episode 20 - Is This Henry Mills?]]
2225* In flashback, Henry can't believe Regina is ''still'' making him stand and measure himself by the wall on the first day of school.
2226* The long-awaited return of Granny as she gives Henry car mechanic advice.
2227* When Weaver and Rogers approach Margot and ask her to come with them, she asks if they're there about unpaid parking tickets. That's funny enough by itself, but it gets even better with the realization that Margot is really ''Robin'', a pickpocket who can pick locks with hairpins and is known to have stolen a car at least once.
2228* Regina remarks how the fundraiser will allow them to repair the building "[[NoodleIncident after that]] [[Recap/OnceUponATimeS4E1ATaleOfTwoSisters snow monster incident]]."
2229* Margot reacts to the witch's ceremony.
2230-->'''Margot:''' Okay, okay...I once went to an ayahuasca ceremony in Iquitos. I can handle this.
2231* Regina and Henry talk about Grumpy's nutty graduation speech.
2232-->'''Henry:''' Yeah, I'm thinking that wasn't really hot chocolate in his mug.
2233* Regina guesses Henry is attending Madison College. "You always liked cheese."
2234* Another bit of subtle humor comes later once the curse is broken. Robin, presumably to let Alice know that she has her memories back too, takes Margot's glasses off during their reunion scene. But later on, she's wearing them again... implying that ''she still needed them'', and couldn't actually see during the rest of the previous scene.
2235
2236[[AC:Episode 21 - Homecoming]]
2237* Regina has made a drink called "the Weed Killer" - apparently, three curses, three identities and ''splitting herself in half'' has no dulled her sense of irony or her sarcastic humour and wit.
2238* Hook brings Gold to a small alcove set in a lagoon cavern.
2239-->'''Hook:''' I know, it's a bit cluttered but it's beachfront property.
2240-->'''Gold:''' All I see is the place where booze came to perish.
2241* Ariel noting that Hook's "lost a few years...and pounds" since she last saw him.
2242* Ariel sees Gold and instantly raises up her trident. With a wave, Gold turns it into a small fork.
2243* The sight of the once all-powerful, intimidating Peter Pan stuck in stockades is pretty hilarious.
2244* In any realm, Cruella is a ''delight''.
2245-->'''Cruella:''' Maybe we can bargain for you to be my chew-toy? How about a scratch behind the ears, darling?
2246* There's a hilarious subtext in Gold's interactions with Wish!Rumple. He sees his other self with his giggling, lounging and mannerisms and he seems to be thinking "oh, brother was I really that annoying?" or "How the hell did Belle fall in love with ''that''?"
2247* In a wonderful meta humor, Henry explains the rather baffling timelines and different realms to the Apprentice.
2248-->'''Apprentice:''' That is indeed a complicated story. The timelines alone can make one's head spin.
2249* How does Henry get the ink for the Quill? He uses the holder to suck it right out of Cruella's hair, meaning she now has just white hair instead of black and white. She acts like she's been torn apart.
2250* Henry realizes that when Wish!Rumple said "you won't get your happy ending without me," he didn't mean this Henry but the Wish version of him.
2251-->'''Rumple:''' Poe-tay-toe, poe-tah-toe.
2252
2253[[AC:Episode 22 - Leaving Storybrooke]]
2254* The return of Grumpy: He and the other dwarves are marching along whistling a certain tune.
2255-->'''Grumpy:''' Come on, guys, you're dwarves! You've got standards to meet!
2256* Alice and Robin nearly run Grumpy over, which is funny in itself as he drops his lunch in the process, but then Granny picks up her crossbow. Alice ''screams in terror and flees'' as Granny fires a crossbow at them, the dwarves threaten them with their axes, Archie ''brandishes his umbrella'' and they ''all'' chase after Alice and Robin.
2257* Robin meets Past!Zelena and is able to convince her by their past.
2258-->'''Robin:''' You always hated driving that car because the brakes always jerked but really it's because you have a lead foot.
2259** Given how Sabine's truck ''screeches'' as it comes to a halt mere inches from Grumpy, it seems that having a lead foot runs in the family.
2260*** Apparently, Zelena has taken to hiding magic beans... ''in the kitchen cupboard.''
2261* When going through the books Wish!Rumple plans to use [[spoiler:to trap all the heroes alone forever]], Zelena's book seems to involve [[spoiler:being surrounded by fish at the bottom of the ocean while she's stuck in the Nautilus]]. She seems just as confused as anybody else.
2262* When Robin runs into [[spoiler:her younger self]], the kid's immediate reaction is to stick her tongue out at her. [[DeadpanSnarker It's]] [[JerkWithAHeartOfGold fitting]].
2263* Robin, surveying a whole crowd of guards with Hook:
2264-->''"Look, I'm pretty good with a bow, [[ThisIsGonnaSuck but that is a lot of bad guys.]]"''
2265* Alice describes Seattle as "great coffee, too much rain", which is pretty goddamn accurate.
2266* Zelena and Regina talk, mentioning how Maleficent finally found Lilly's father: ''Zorro''. That explains a ''lot'' about his legends.
2267** Maleficent ''had sex with Zorro''. Probably more than once. Now that the image is in your head, just ''try'' to get rid of it.
2268*** To make it even worse? ''Both were dragons at the time?'' Enjoying that visual image of Dragon Reproduction?
2269* In the very final shot, Emma's car is parked in main street; she, at that moment, is in the castle in a dress and her leather jacket. This means she ''walked'' the entire way. Given that she's barely able to walk in it, shuffling along the floor when she [[spoiler:arrives at Regina's coronation]], this means she must have left ''hours'' ago. ''No wonder'' she's late! Either that, or they were ''so'' late, Emma had to teleport them there.
2270** Also - Snow ''finally'' got Emma in a dress permanently. Sure, there's a leather jacket with it, but she's ''actually wearing a goddamn dress!''
2271** Look closely and you can see a small pink ball at the end of Hook's hook. Yes, he baby-proofed his own hand.
2272* When everyone is [[spoiler:cheering at Regina's coronation]], Prince Neal is ''bouncing up and down in glee.''
2273* Emma tells Henry to "give Hook a hand", to which Hook replies "Pun intended. Pun ''always'' intended." Made funnier by Emma then realizing what she'd just said and replying with a sheepish "Sorry!"
2274* Wish!Rumple refers to sucking the Blue Fairy into a portal from whence she'll forever be trapped as performing "questionable experiments" and refers to her as a "sprite".
2275* When everyone is being sucked into portals, Wish!Rumple is jumping up and down, clapping his hands in that crazy way that Real!Rumple used to do. He does it... for quite some time...
2276[[/folder]]
2277
2278[[folder:Other]]
2279[[AC:General]]
2280* The mere fact that this show can have scenarios such as "Rumplestiltskin is in love with Belle and killed Cinderella's fairy godmother" and have that be the staple of the show is pretty funny when you think about it.
2281** On that note, this is probably the only fictional universe ever in which Snow White and Dr. Frankenstein have had a one-night stand.
2282** Also the only show where we can say that Peter Pan had sex with a fairy, Red Riding Hood is a Werewolf, Hades ''is real'' and Captain Hook does ''not'' have a perm! Also, the granddaughter of the Queen of Hearts is the significant other of Alice in Wonderland.
2283** Lampshaded ''by'' the show itself when Emma says, [[ARareSentence incredulously]], that "Rumplestiltskin and Captain Hook got in a fight and someone got hurt, but Dr. Frankenstein is trying to heal him."
2284* Little Red Riding Hood becoming a promiscuous {{Emo Teen}}. Doubles as a case of {{Fridge Brilliance}} when you realize [[http://www.msmagazine.com/summer2004/danceswithwolves.asp the source material.]]
2285-->'''Granny:''' I'm sorry that my heart attack interfered with your plans to sleep your way down the Eastern seaboard.
2286** And as it turns out... [[spoiler:while she's this in the real world (or implied to be), she's very much not this in the FTW. The red still applies, though, just in a different way...]]
2287* Anytime Rumplestiltskin gives his high-pitched little giggle and/or calls someone "dearie" - bonus points if it's a male character, who usually looks away uncomfortably.
2288** ''Double'' bonus points if it's [[spoiler:Wish!Rumple or a figment of the Darkness talking to Rumple]], who looks more uncomfortable than anyone else does.
2289
2290[[AC:Extras]]
2291* In 'Untold Stories', a Facebook App which rewards winning games on it with letters the characters write to each other, it turns out Gold left a letter for Belle who slept in late in 'We are Both'. Since Belle is completely unfamiliar with modern technology, Gold gives her specific (and hilarious) instructions on how to prepare breakfast for herself, tells her that he loves her, and ends with 'Please do remember to try to shut the refrigerator.'
2292** Crosses over into Heartwarming.
2293* As a part of its promotion during Comic-Con, ABC's Youtube channel released a [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Xr4ZH5YXbg Singlebrooke]] dating ad, featuring the cast describing their perfect dates in-character. Special mention goes to the captions describing each character.
2294** Regina, [[StealthPun Makes a Mean Apple Turnover]]
2295** ''Pongo'' getting his own dating ad on there! He likes fire hydrants[[note]]you know, because they're his favorite item to relieve himself next to[[/note]].
2296** The caption for Graham at one point was "[[MrFanservice just look at him]]"
2297** David describing his perfect woman.
2298--->'''David:''' Dark hair, red lips, skin white as... I don't know...milk? She's... milk white. ''[beat]'' Is that racist?
2299** Henry's favourite girl should like gum. The dog got an ad, so why shouldn't ''the ten year old boy!''
2300* In one of the commentary tracks on the Season 1 [=DVDs=], Ginnifer Goodwin says that when they both had long dark hair, she and Jennifer Morrison were [[SeparatedAtBirthCasting so often mistaken for each other]] that they both, completely independently of each other, began signing autographs and giving interviews as each other.
2301* An ad for [=DisneyWorld=] has Regina strolling through the park, laughing at the fairy tale heroes and plotting their downfalls. Then a little girl skips by, dressed as Snow White. Regina looks at her with an exasperated look.
2302-->'''Regina:''' Seriously?
2303** What she says about Belle is hilarious [[FridgeBrilliance when you think about the show]]
2304-->'''Regina:''' Maybe your tale as old as time needs a little . . .twist.
2305** Then there's [=Disney World's=] version of Gaston
2306--->'''Gaston:''' There's almost enough attention on me.
2307* Storybrooke has its own morning talk show, [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xzlRiUPo3Gw Good Morning Storybrooke]]. Here are some of the highlights.
2308** Dr. Whale dishing out love advice. For instance, you're a girl and want to impress your boyfriend? Go to Mr. Gold, have him [[AndShowItToYou rip out your heart]] and put it in a box, and present it to the man you love. He will start to notice you a little more.
2309** Ruby doing a ''[[BadBadActing terrible]]'' [[StylisticSuck commercial for Granny's]]. It's her standing in front of a green screen that's doing slides of the diner and speaking in a very stilted way that makes it seem like she's reading off a teleprompter.
2310-->'''Ruby:''' [[MotorMouth We also have avocado ask if we have avocado.]]
2311** Gold narrating a commercial for his shop and all the creepy things inside. Best of all, he has free parking with validation! "Remember, if you don't buy my poisons and potions... ''Your neighbours might!''"
2312*** When a photo of the logo in the window appears in the commercial, you can barely see the reflection of Gold himself. That's right, Gold took a selfie!
2313** Belle is apparently part of ''Theatre/RomeoAndJuliet'''s MisaimedFandom.
2314*** Well, [[LampshadeHanging she said she'd only read half the book...]]
2315** The ShipSinking of Grumpy x Nova.
2316
2317[[AC:Season 1 Outtakes]]
2318* Snow White gives her classroom monologue on how [[FriendToAllLivingThings wonderful and loyal birds are]]. Then Ginnifer Goodwin says "I'm pretty sure [the bird] pooped in my hand."
2319* Henry's evil laugh.
2320** Gold's evil laugh. [[spoiler:Henry gets it from his grandfather, it would seem.]]
2321* Rumple signing Cinderella's contract.
2322-->'''Cinderella:''' I think it's more than fair.\
2323'''Rumplestiltskin:''' Oh [[RuleOfThree yes, yes, yes]], it is, yes... Apart from the fact that it's ''upside down'', it's fine.
2324* Gold's wide-eyed nod after this dialogue is priceless.
2325-->'''Emma:''' So what does it say?\
2326'''Gold:''' It says she's a big fat liar.
2327* It's Emma ''Swan'', Archie, not Emma ''Stone''.
2328* Sidney can't find his card. "If I had a card, I'd give you one!"
2329* [[BigLippedAlligatorMoment The random scream from out of nowhere]] that makes Emma jump and curse.
2330
2331[[AC:Season 1 Deleted Scenes]]
2332* Graham, after introducing himself, tries to convince Emma to stay the night at Granny's B&B to sleep off Regina's drink. Emma rather badassedly analyzes her own blood alcohol level based on the strength of the drink and proves she is in no danger in driving back to Boston. The funny part? Part of her evidence involves her weight--but just as she's about to admit what it is, she tells him he doesn't need to know that.
2333* Mary Margaret and Emma actually get in an argument (while [[FunnyBackgroundEvent Graham dithers in the background]]) about whose fault it is that David has gone wandering from the hospital. After pointing out she was the one who chose to do as Emma asked and read him a story, and it was her hand he grabbed, Mary Margaret then declares either she was going along, or she'd strike off to find the John Doe on her own. In the first sign in Storybrooke of Snow's badassery, Emma gives in.
2334* Henry tries to help Emma out in her sheriff campaign by printing out posters. He finds a picture of a fireman carrying a woman out of a fire online (it should be noted the woman is ''blond'' and looks nothing like Regina) and then uses Photoshop to put Emma's head on the fireman's body because it looks more heroic.
2335-->'''Emma:''' I sure look...brawny.
2336* August sits down with Emma at Granny's diner, looking for a second date but observes that her being the sheriff while her roommate is under investigation for murder makes this a bad time. "Good instincts," Emma quips. This also comes back a few seconds later when he notes that she clearly wants to bite someone's head off (Regina, who's sitting in the corner booth he's currently blocking the view of). The funniest bit of all, though? He then asks her what she normally does to handle something like this.
2337-->'''Emma:''' Normally I go over there and give her a piece of my mind. But that hasn't exactly worked out for me.
2338-->'''August:''' Maybe it's time for a new approach.
2339-->'''Emma:''' Yeah...the trouble is, I'm a 'go-over-there-and-give-her-a-piece-of-my-mind' type of girl.
2340-->'''August:''' And while I love that about you, there are other ways to get what you want.
2341
2342[[AC:Season 2 Outtakes]]
2343* "They wanna put me on display like some evil ''panda''? [[SpicyLatina Uh-uh]], I don't ''think'' so!"
2344** Which is either a quote from a movie, or a brilliant bit of random ad lib. Either way, it sparked a thousand Internet fan memes.
2345*** According to an interview with Lana, it's ''neither of those'' and was '''''actually in the script''''' and they did a take of it anyway, even though they were quite sure it would get cut...
2346* Mary Margaret randomly coming up behind Mulan, waving at the camera with a huge grin on her face, before running off-camera.
2347* The entire cast just doing random things, including performing silly dances, making funny noises and pulling stupid faces.
2348* Something for any Gold/Hook shippers out there; the door opens...to reveal Gold and Hook hugging. When they realize, Gold swears before turning to hug Belle instead.
2349* David's gun randomly falling out of his belt in the middle of a tense scene.
2350* "Did you ''know?!'' Did you know ''the whole time?!'' Where I was? Who I was from?! ...Who I was ''from''? Who I was from... God!" ''(cue hysterical laughter from Neal)''
2351* It seems that Graham didn't know how to use a handbrake when he first arrived in Storybrooke.
2352* "I broke the shackles. I'm ''free''!" ''(proceeds to pretend to punch and kick the guards)''
2353* David running towards the camera but losing his balance and trying not to run into it. The actor's "Whoa-hey-yo!" sound is what makes it funny for those viewers not otherwise distracted by the extreme close-up of the guy's crotch.
2354* The beginning of the real life RunningGag of actors being pestered by mosquitos in the middle of serious scenes.
2355
2356[[AC:Season 2 Deleted Scenes]]
2357* We find out what motivation is required for Hook to pick his handcuffs to escape his hospital bed. No, not his continuing quest for revenge. Not a wish to return to his ship. Not even his desire to flirt with any woman he meets or annoy Emma and company. He "escapes" because he's found a plate full of a jiggly, unnaturally-colored substance and wants someone to identify it for him. It's [[spoiler:blue Jello]]. Or in Snow's (exasperated) words: [[spoiler:"It's ''food''. You eat it!"]] The cherry on top is in the midst of all this, Hook finds time to flirt with Ruby.
2358** Not only that, in 3x15 (Quiet Minds) he presents Neal with green jello, commenting that apparently it has medicinal purposes.
2359* Henry is absolutely {{Adorkable}} in the cut scene between him and David. Not only does he blithely believe in David getting Emma and Mary Margaret back home ''today'' (the scene is called "Young Confidence" on the DVD), he rattles off everything Charming did as proof of how he's going to succeed, from [[BadassAndBaby swordfighting with baby Emma in his arms]] (briefly confused by David with him fighting ''with'' the baby) to putting the egg with the True Love's Potion inside Dragon!Maleficent to "[[Recap/OnceUponATimeS1E13WhatHappenedToFrederick killing]] [[BuffySpeak the water lady]]": "How hard can it be [[TemptingFate to find two people?"]] Then he makes poptarts for David--and when he objects saying he should be the one making breakfast, Henry responds "Ten years old, not ten months"--and finally declares himself the authority on the storybook to explain why Emma always took him along and now David should too.
2360* Although the rest of the scene is heartwarming (Henry bonding with Neal, Neal opining Gold won't die because he's a survivor) or {{Foreshadowing}} of the Neverland arc, the scene where Neal is letting Henry steer the Jolly Roger has the hilarious bit where he uses a PrecisionFStrike (in this case, bitch) when describing how hard it is to navigate a ship, then quickly corrects his language in front of the boy. Made funnier by Emma hovering around in the background and Henry not even blinking.
2361
2362[[AC:Season 3 Outtakes]]
2363* Rumplestiltskin upon being shown the storybook: "'Once Upon a Time'...[[ItWillNeverCatchOn how ridiculous]]."
2364* Yet again, everyone making the most hilarious faces.
2365* Robin Hood can't get his arrow back in its quiver.
2366* Hook doesn't know how to pilot the Jolly Roger...or jump in a horse trough.
2367* Rumple can't get Snow's necklace out of her hair...so they start dancing together. "Oh no, it's caaaaaaaught..."
2368* Emma is very frustrated with her coconut candle. And wants to get rid of the camera.
2369* Zelena gets caught in Regina's office...and [[WeakenedByTheLight freaks out in the flashlight beam]].
2370* Neal makes planes fly with his mind.
2371* Josh Dallas' hilarious imitation of Ginnifer Goodwin: "Sounds reasonable to me!"
2372* Regina's little dance in the green screen doorway, where she ''slaps her own ass''. And also strikes a pose when the wind billows her hair in her face.
2373
2374[[AC:Season 3 Deleted Scenes]]
2375* The whole bit when Rumple chases down Rip Van Winkle and puts him to sleep is some great BlackComedy, from the fact the reason the fellow is in trouble with him is because he "overslept", to the faux amiability when Rumple says "You need time? Why didn't you just say so?" to the utter glee when he curses him with the hundred-year sleep.
2376
2377[[AC:Season 4 Outtakes]]
2378The cast is in rare form this time.
2379
2380* Once again, everyone mugging for the camera. And a whole series of moments when ''no one'' can keep from flubbing their lines. Special mention goes to Rebecca Mader screwing up Rumplestiltskin's name and Ursula "literally forgot what my line was, 100%."
2381* David imitating a cow during his farm scene with Anna.
2382* Emma can't think what to call her parents' heroic status. "The difference is you never held yourself up to be some...moral...virtuous...''being''."
2383* Despite everything, [[PortmanteauCoupleName SwanQueen]] remains alive and well. "Tell me, ''my Majesty''..."
2384* [[ShipMates So, apparently]], does the HoYay that is Charming/Hook: "Hook...I didn't know you were [[FreudianSlip enjoining]] us..."
2385** And becomes even more blatant when, after Emma kisses Hook, so does Charming. To which Hook can only say, "[[EvenTheGuysWantHim He's dreamy!]]"
2386** [[ShipToShipCombat Not to be outdone]], however, Gold also asks Hook for a kiss.
2387* David leaving his keys in the ignition, setting off an alarm.
2388* Speaking of loud noises, the foghorn...which Josh Dallas and Ginnifer Goodwin [[{{Gasshole}} react to]] [[ToiletHumor accordingly]].
2389* Hook genuinely managing a bull's-eye with the dartboard at Granny's.
2390* Emma flailing about with her magic while driving.
2391* Robin Hood suggesting Regina take a cab. Or Uber. And then mistakenly saying Marian "drove away."
2392-->'''Robin:''' She didn't...she couldn't have done, could she?
2393-->'''Will Scarlet:''' Stranger things have happened.
2394** This becomes HilariousInHindsight after Season Six: [[spoiler:Marian was actually Zelena in disguise, and in Season Six after giving up her powers Zelena has to learn how to drive...and is spectacularly bad at it. Which even carries through to Season Seven's finale where Robin reveals she has a lead foot.]]
2395* If seeing the Sorcerer's Hat [[SpecialEffectsFailure be bounced around on the floor by wires]] isn't hilarious enough, Robert Carlyle has to lie beside it perfectly still, without {{Corpsing}}. His commentary on the matter? "Classically-trained acting."
2396* Josh Dallas' overblown hick accent: "It's the only choice we had to make sure you were good!"
2397* Gold dropping his phone, which begins a {{Montage}} of people dropping things.
2398* Mary Margaret gets her baby carriage stuck in Madam Mayor's door.
2399* The Snow Queen does a magical gesture...and throws dirt in her face.
2400* Elsa slips on her dress...which [[RunningGag then leads into]] a {{Montage}} of people falling.
2401* Speaking of a RunningGag ([[{{Pun}} literally]], in this case!), Lana Parilla is slapping her ass again, apparently to get herself moving faster.
2402* And as a CallBack to Season 2, she once again break free of her restraints during the scene with Maleficent and Stefan...and hits herself in the face with the chain.
2403* Emma and Elsa get disturbed at the town line by a helicopter flying over.
2404* Robin and Will Scarlet's competition/slapfest.
2405* All manner of hilarious shots of various characters dancing (Gold mugging for both Belle and Regina has to be seen to be believed), but the winner has to go to the surreal image of seeing Anna, Elsa, and Kristoff dancing with Hans and all of his brothers. VillainsOutShopping meets DancePartyEnding?
2406* Robin and Will Scarlet mimic the iconic Yellow Brick Road jig from the MGM [[Film/TheWizardOfOz Wizard of Oz]]...[[BreakingTheFourthWall and nearly run into the matte painting]].
2407
2408[[AC:Season 4 Deleted Scenes]]
2409* A deleted scene from "Shattered Sight" features a flashback encounter that took place prior to the breaking of the first curse, in which Regina visits Ingrid's Ice Cream shop and tries to figure out who she is:
2410-->'''Ingrid:''' (timid) Would you like to try some chunky monkey?
2411-->'''Regina:''' Do you see this figure, do I look like I eat chunky monkey!?!
2412** Then Ingrid lies and says she doesn't like her job or the cold, and says that she must have done something wrong in a past life.
2413* In another scene, when Emma, Regina, and Robin arrive back in Storybrooke with Lily and Zelena, Maleficent is going to go bond with Lily at Granny's Diner. Emma draws Lily aside and warns her to stay away from her parents.
2414-->'''Emma:''' You so much as make a move against them, and you're done.
2415-->'''Lily:''' You expect me to believe you're gonna kill me? We just played that game, Emma.
2416-->'''Emma:''' I might not kill you...but I have magic here, and I think you would make a lovely toad.
2417* A third scene explains the detail of how Gold ended up with the shells he used to lead Hook, Mary Margaret, and David on a wild goose chase so they couldn't help Emma with Cruella until it was too late. Not only does the Author complain about watching the Charming family drama in a crystal ball and asks for something "lighter, like Jack Benny", but when Gold produces the shells the Author asks if he's planning to make New England conch chowder.
2418* The bit with the Arendelle characters marveling over the Twinkie "magic cake."
2419
2420[[AC:Season 5 Outtakes]]
2421* Jennifer Morrison had no choice but to ruin her first scene with Merida: ''(slap)'' There were three mosquitoes on my face.
2422* Lana delivers this gem:
2423-->'''Lana:''' "I have to admit...I don't remember my line."
2424* The running gag of Colin messing up his lines. Examples of this would include:
2425** "Don't touch it as it could have a protective charms."
2426** "If we found that....Surfer?"
2427** "I know my way a-wound a woman."
2428*** '''Ginnifer Goodwin:''' In ''those'' boots?
2429** "She can't keep secrets from me fromever."
2430** "Why can you only admit how you feel when one of us is facing certain bleath?"
2431* He also can't close the door of Emma's house. Or slide a sword to Robert Carlyle. Or climb steps. Or get into the Evil Queen's carriage.
2432* It seems to run in the family, so to speak, since the actor who plays Liam can't get his lines right either. "Chaptain's chair"? "Plot a course out of this bloody [[{{Malaproper}} tycoon]]"?
2433* During one scene, a train horn was blaring in which Rebecca Mader went on to state, [[ToiletHumour "Sorry that was me"]].
2434* Amy Manson (Merida) genuinely hitting Robert Carlyle with the hilt of her sword. Twice.
2435* She also can't stop laughing every time she looks Ginnifer Goodwin in the face. (And the one time she doesn't, it's Ginnifer who cracks up.)
2436* Emilie's in such a hurry to get away from Gold she knocks a bunch of pawn shop items off a counter.
2437* Robert Carlyle has a booger.
2438* Robin Hood tries to draw Excalibur.
2439* Jennifer Morrison livens up a scene by doing some Mission Impossible-style somersaulting.
2440* Josh Dallas decides Killian's hook makes a good ear-scratcher.
2441** He also unfortunately decides to try and pick up Victoria Smurfit. "It's all gone horribly wrong!"
2442** [[{{Troll}} And writes a ticket for her abandoned car in Storybrooke]]. It's one of a whole stack of them.
2443
2444[[AC:Season 5 Deleted Scenes]]
2445* It's HarsherInHindsight, but the scene where Merlin, on the way to turn the Holy Grail into Excalibur to cut out his magic, is explaining to Nimue what bits and pieces he's seen of the future, including the fact that Excalibur and the kingdom it's used to found will become famous in books and movies. Leading Nimue to grin and say he needs to explain to her [[NoodleIncident again]] about movies.
2446* When everyone is banding together to convince Emma they will stop Cerberus and save Hook, Snow White backs out, citing "everything being her fault" and she's just being "realistic." After she runs out, Charming starts to go after her, only to be stopped by Regina.
2447-->'''Regina:''' She wants a reality check? Then she should get one from someone who won't pull any punches.
2448* Hades, waiting for his romantic rendezvous with Zelena at the Underworld diner, is being waited on by the Blind Witch.
2449-->'''Blind Witch:''' Even ''I'' can see she's not coming.
2450-->'''Hades:''' I'm beginning to understand why those brats pushed you into an oven.
2451-->'''Blind Witch:''' Why are you sulking over that red-headed drip when there are plenty of other witches in the cauldron?
2452-->'''Hades:''' I may be a god, but even I don't like burnt offerings.
2453
2454[[AC:Season 6 Outtakes]]
2455* Robin Hood appears to Regina and Snow...when he's supposed to be dead. Snow points this out, but all Regina can do is praise how great he looks. And then he flounces offscreen like any of the show's fairies.
2456* The [[DatingCatwoman sexual tension between enemies]] returns with a vengeance. Zelena tries to smooch Belle, ''King George'' puckers up for David, Zelena and the Evil Queen start to go for it with tongue, and in one scene a pan-over reveals what very much looks like Zelena and Regina either attempting to choke one another or actually taking their makeout to the next step...
2457* Hook searches Rumple...to find he doesn't have the dagger on him. ([[GenreSavvy Did you really think the Dark One would, Killian?]])
2458* A RunningGag of ToiletHumor, with a large number of actors passing gas. For those who don't find this funny in and of itself, Lana Parilla's commentary on baby Robin doing so is much funnier: "That is a ''real'' fart, not a TV fart."
2459* David cracks up over Hook being unable to climb the beanstalk with only one hand.
2460* Gideon and Emma's swordfight: Emma actually steps right on Gideon's groin...then a few moments later when he sits up too soon, he rams his face into ''her'' groin.
2461* Robert Carlyle, of all people, screws up a line!
2462* Regina, regarding the Evil Queen: [[SpicyLatina "That bitch is gonna die today!"]]
2463* ''The entire'' ''RunningGag'' ''with the mosquitoes''. Seriously, ''no'' actor is left alone by them, they can't stop swatting, smacking, and flailing, eventually they go with industrial-strength fumigation, and it ''still'' doesn't get rid of them. Bonus points to Emma's in-character "Really?!", Ginnifer succeeding in smashing one (to a look of disgust at her hand), and Lana claiming they're filming "where mosquitoes are born."
2464* Lana can't say "alternate reality." And then bursts out laughing when she finally gets it right, still ruining the take.
2465* Belle can't get the door of the pawn shop open. And speaking of doors, the one to Regina and Robin Hood's cell in Rumple's dungeon won't close. Which of course leads to yet another CallBack: "I'm free!"
2466* Jennifer Morrison is so excited about her character's birthday she runs right out of the set and through the CGI-green screen wall. Perhaps as payback for this, she can't blow out the candle on her cupcake, to the point you'd be tempted to think it was one of those trick candles that re-light themselves.
2467* A cross with a heartwarming moment, but Pinocchio/August interrupting his reunion with Princess Emma by suddenly hugging her.
2468* Snow White can tie a cherry stem with her tongue.
2469* Watching the prop people handing Gideon a sword/taking away a sword, to represent them magically teleporting, but of course without the special effects. Emma: "You did it without the poofing, it's amazing!"
2470* Everyone stumbling over their lines (though as usual the best moments go to Josh Dallas).
2471* Hook keeps coughing during his lines, first with Emma, then Blackbeard, leading the latter to diagnose it as emphysema.
2472* Not only does Archie get to screw up a line again, [[OutOfCharacterAlert he actually says "Piss!"]]
2473* Regina's hair gets in her mouth.
2474* Hook, when rallying Nemo and the other Nautilus crew to hunt down the monster whose blood can get them back to Storybrooke: "Come on, gentlemen: let's get crackin'!"
2475* After the sheriff's car breaks down at the town line, David is prepared to shoot it out of its misery.
2476* Emma, Snow, and Rumple all randomly bobbing and then sinking down out of the camera view like they're dancing.
2477* In a DeletedScene, Emma is talking to Regina about Hook "leaving" her while flipping through files at the sheriff's station, ending with "there's nothing left to say." Cue a long minute or two of silence and paper flipping before she adds, "Seriously, there's nothing else to say, I don't have anything else" and Regina observing that's "because that's all they wrote."
2478
2479[[AC:Season 6 Deleted Scenes]]
2480* An extended bit of Jasmine telling Aladdin to open the Cave of Wonders.
2481-->'''Aladdin:''' Left the key in my other puffy pants.
2482* Henry explains to Emma and Regina how he freed them from the mirror world, by smashing the mirror with the hammer instead of the Dragon's heart, because he remembered Emma counseling him to never compromise his principles.
2483-->'''Regina:''' So... you did the right thing ''and'' lost your temper. ''(looks at Emma)'' Guess you ''do'' take after both of us.
2484* Zelena looks at the Evil Queen turned into a snake in a cage.
2485-->'''Zelena:''' Hello, sis. Your skin has never looked better.
2486* Zelena says she needs backup to face the Dark Fairy and Charming offers himself and Hook.
2487-->'''Zelena:''' A one-handed pirate and a chiselled chin with a sword? No thanks, I'd like to live through this!
2488
2489[[AC:Season 7 Outtakes]]
2490* Alice and Robin go to kiss after the curse is broken...and instead break down in a fit of giggling.
2491* Colin praying before a scene (with his stunt double for the other Hook standing nearby, grinning): "Dear Lord, please smite Andy and Jenn so I may be the best in the scene. Thank you."
2492* Tilly [[{{Corpsing}} can't help laughing]] every time Rogers asks her about the beignets.
2493* In [[RunningGag the series-long tradition]], no one can stay in their bindings. Victoria breaks out of her cuffs (and [[BlowingARaspberry Blows a Raspberry]], complete with the spread-fingered hand gesture), Robin breaks free of her chains, [[RuleOfThree and Alice]] [[SerialEscalation manages to pull the chain holding her right out of the set wall]].
2494* Colin literally spits one of his lines in poor Smee's face. And he also can't sheathe his sword.
2495-->'''Colin O'Donoghue:''' [[EverybodyMustGetStoned Finest California roll in the fairy tale forest.]]
2496-->'''Rebecca Mader:''' I'll take two.
2497** Even funnier when you consider this is Zelena (the green-skinned Wicked Witch) talking about another green item, not to mention that her cursed persona had been living in San Francisco. ''And'' when you think about the show's original premise and how insane it seemed to many at first (even the creators).
2498* Zelena "has no idea" what Gothel wants her to do.
2499* Lucy can't pronounce Facilier, pronouncing it as "Facilifey". [[ThirdPersonPerson And calls herself by her own name.]]
2500** Just as funny is when Sabine comes bursting in to attack Facilier...and calls him Naveen. While Naveen is standing right beside her.
2501* Tilly goes for a piggyback ride on Rogers. [[DidntThinkThisThrough Then he attempts to do the same back.]]
2502* '''''So''''' many flubbed lines (though the most again belong to Hook).
2503* Alice's witch hood keeps getting blown back by the special effects wind. And she and Robin can't stop laughing in general at the effects in the scene.
2504* Hook turns on his old Wish Realm self (another stunt double), demanding his identity... and the fellow breaks his rum bottle on his sword.
2505
2506[[AC:Season 7 Deleted Scenes]]
2507* After Henry expresses concern about leaving Tilly alone in his apartment when she might be a murderer, Rogers gets one back on him by asking if he's okay talking with Jacinda because he "saw Ivy leaving your apartment late last night". Cue Henry chastising him: "Dude, you wanna be a little louder next time?" Then a few moments later when Jacinda is surprised to see him: "Well, you know what they say, 'Beignets all day!'" ''({{Beat}}, while Rogers and Jacinda both stare at him)'' "Nobody says that."
2508* From the finale: apparently Regina's car wouldn't start when she was driving herself and Zelena to Snow and Charming's castle. Not only does Zelena complain about [[BuffySpeak 'not poofing there']], and snarks to Regina when she praises the car as a Mercedes that "I don't care if it's a double-saddled unicorn", but eventually she gets fed up and [[MundaneUtility uses magic to make the car run]] since they "can't wait for Triple A".
2509
2510[[AC:Others/Trailers]]
2511* The trailers for new episodes like to have fun with the show and all the character names. The worst one? A trailer teasing Hook's backstory shows a clip of [[spoiler:Hook and Emma kissing]] and the voice-over calls it, "A surprising Hook-up."
2512* Regina's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iiBeBRuMDOc Wicked Witch Watch]].
2513** The highlights: When discussing Flying Monkeys, she mentions the threats they pose (carrying people off and transforming them into Flying Monkeys), then adds [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking transmitting fleas]] as if it is somehow a comparable danger. Also, Regina points out that "[[WesternAnimation/RockyAndBullwinkle flying squirrels are not a threat at this time]]."
2514* One of the trailers for Season 4 has Elsa receive a [[IncrediblyLamePun chilly]] reception with her waltzing into Storybrooke's main street. As she walks by with everyone else looking to put up a fight, Emma's only response is an [[http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/live-feed/video-once-a-time-frozens-729299 exasperated "Really?"]]
2515* Ginnifer Goodwin and Josh Dallas' behind-the-scenes tour is almost nonstop hilarity. Highlights include:
2516** Josh Dallas cooking at Granny's (while whistling "Whistle While You Work") because "he needs some way to make money during the hiatus." And the story Ginnifer then tells about why he was so eager to be a cashier as a kid.
2517** Ginnifer getting lost.
2518** Finding Josh sleeping in bed, which leads into the RunningGag UnusualEuphemism: [[ItMakesSenseInContext "This is where we... make tacos."]]
2519** The bit where they finally get to show the viewers Mary Margaret's bathroom "where there has never been a scene...until now."[[note]]This is actually not quite true: in Season 3, when Gold informed the heroes that Zelena was the Wicked Witch, they rushed back to Mary Margaret's apartment where Zelena was meeting with her and had gone into the bathroom. David and Emma burst in, guns drawn, to find she'd escaped out the window, naturally enough.[[/note]]
2520** Jennifer Morrison running from the camera.
2521** Catching Lana Parrilla [[ArsonMurderAndJaywalking eating a piece of cheese]]. "[[DeathGlare Don't look her in the eyes.]]"
2522** After constantly losing Josh, ''Ginnifer'' is the one who disappears...only to be found in the back of Gold's pawn shop, wielding the Dark One's dagger, [[LargeHam hammily]] indulging in her EvilLaugh. Which leads to her gesturing with it throughout the whole scene after (to Josh Dallas' increasingly unsettled freakout), until she actually walks off with it...which has the BrickJoke of her using it to slice and eat chunks of cheese. Though it does end with the nice heartwarming bit of Josh saying, [[ArcWords "I will always find you."]]
2523* In the Fan Celebration special, the actors are asked what the characters would do if there was no crisis in Storybrooke: Creator/ColinODonoghue speculates that Emma and Hook would, among other things, [[BrickJoke finally watch]] ''Film/BackToTheFuture1'' (in "There's No Place Like Home", Hook suffered a case of PopCulturalOsmosisFailure when Emma made reference to Marty [=McFly=]).
2524* The short "A Knight with Cruella" from Season 5, explaining what happened with her after the heroes escaped the Underworld, is chock-full of these moments--Victoria Smurfit is in rare form. Just the fact alone that she's relegated to drinking herself into a stupor in Hell's bar is hilarious enough, but she's being waited on by ''Mordred'', and he's played by James Marsters no less!
2525** She makes fun of his name: "What's that, 'Mordred'? Sounds awful, it's got 'dread' in it." [[{{Hypocrite}} "Yours starts with 'Cruel'."]]
2526** She declares all she is is 'another lush at the local bar', and when Mordred doesn't answer right away, she growls, "Lie promptly, darling, it's all I'll ask of you." This comes back in a BrickJoke when, after she declares herself the true hero, she adds, "We talked about the hesitation."
2527** After discovering his skin is "smooth" she asks to skin him like she used to do to dogs, which leads to almost a minute-long exchange where he continually refuses with a litany of "No"s while she becomes increasingly desperate. "Just a bit around the edges? You'll never even miss it!" "You're already dead!" "Just think of it as a little exfoliation!"
2528** Mordred suggests they take over the Underworld and usurp it from Arthur, like he did in life. Cruella asks how that worked out. "He killed me." "Sounds like a Plan B, darling, keep thinking."
2529** Mordred suggests moving on. At first she thinks he means to Hell, which she snarks at: "Where's the toilet, darling?" "Oh, it's the flaming hole in the red-hot rock, darling." Then he clarifies going to Heaven by earning redemption, which leads to her feigning ignorance (or [[EvilCannotComprehendGood perhaps not]]) at what the word even means, and when he fully explains, she makes a list of good deeds before declaring she can't do any of those things (comparing herself to Emma as "solving crimes in a windbreaker"). "I may as well bloody pet puppies with their skin still on."
2530** Twice she seems to be upset by something Mordred had said, only to reveal she hadn't even been listening and was instead upset about the whiskey running out.
2531** Mordred suggests her villainy is so great it makes minor villains like him look good by comparison. She skews this around into her making goodness possible and being the true hero.
2532** The kicker: This takes place ''fifty years'' after Arthur took over as ruler of the Underworld. The implication being that Cruella has basically been getting herself smashed night after night to cope with it.
2533** Also, when Mordred points out how long it's been, Cruella feels at her face as if expecting herself to be aging in death.
