* ActuallyPrettyFunny: When James (the original, not David impersonating him) asks Midas's forgiveness for not shaking his gold-cursed hand, the king stares at him emotionlessly--then bursts out laughing.
* FiveSecondForeshadowing: At the end of his fight with the Behemoth, James sits up from being seemingly slain on the ground, impales the Behemoth, and smugly tells him "make sure I'm actually dead next time." A few minutes later, when James is giving a RousingSpeech to his men in preparation for facing the dragon, the not-dead Behemoth sits up and impales ''him''.

Meanwhile in Storybrooke the amnesiac David also wants to be with someone he loves (and his missing memories mean he doesn't love Kathryn), which is why he chooses to go to Mary Margaret...until he gets his memories back, and then feels he must honor the love he once had for Kathryn.
