It wasn't major, but I found myself annoyed when Ben repeatedly kept qualifying his mild irritation with all of Leslie's insane holidays with stuff like, "I can't believe I'm complaining about my wife's staggering thoughtfulness". I get it. Leslie is really sweet and loves making the people she cares about feel good.

Let's not forget how Emma was all, "I have to drop Henry off at his grandfather's" at the end of that bagel breakfast with Tamara and Neal, as if mother-effin' Rumplestiltskin would ever volunteer for that shit.

Also: Did they just, like, leave Hook locked up in a storage unit in the basement of Bae's apartment building?

But remember Rumple's big, soul-baring plea for forgiveness to August last season in "The Return"? That monologue was outrageously beautiful and delivered with such restraint and humanity by Carlyle. And it was waaaaaasted on a fake-out!
