Aubrey James is the canon name for the mayor who was in charge when the Waynes were killed. Name's existed longer than the show.

I disagree. I think she is in love with him, but also knows him and so would never marry him or really allow herself to be with him/let her guard completely down. 'Love isn't always enough'. He would never deliberately hurt her, but she knows he's his own worst enemy and she would go down with the ship. She would not…

Yeah, I always read him as young, as well, because of Jesse's age in the show. Turns out he's four years older than me. Holy crap. I no longer feel like a dirty old man, though, so that's good.

He did vehemently deny it though, several times. She just made up her mind from the moment he started acting 'off' that he fucked Miranda. I bet he could show her recorded conversations with the girl who is trying to bring Meyerism down and his library search history proving he was doubting and she still wouldn't…

I took it as more like he knew it was something he shouldn't be doing and felt wrong both drinking and wearing the sign of his faith, which is probably something that helped him through his recovery. I've seen Christians depicted in movies and shows do the same kind of thing—like in a plot where a religious character…

I'm pretty sure, now that some more little details are coming out, that Meyerism is supposed to be loosely based on the Celestine Prophesy. Dude goes to Peru, finds a manuscript discussing a step based way to connect spiritually to nature and the unconscious world, writes a book, people take it on as a real spiritual…

I thought the issue wasn't that Louise hadn't ever been scared before, but rather that she had never been scared *at a haunted house*. She knows they're fake, so she's never been scared of them. They put on a "haunted house" just for her to "try and scare her"—it's as dull as she predicted, which was on purpose—and…

I don't remember that so much in the first season, but there was a subplot in the 3rd or 4th season where the 17 year old son (Silas) was in an ongoing sexual relationship with a 40+ year old woman. It was both kind of played for laughs and also to show how dysfunctional the kids had become.

Looking back at that OUaT episode, the Genie!Sidney comes out of a lamp, so it's possible that he could potentially be the genie of the lamp here, especially since he hasn't been in Storybrook since the first season, and there's no real indication where the timeline is in connection with the two shows other than…

I'm still kind of bothered that one of the 'bottles' isn't a ring like in the original Aladdin tale. Since the genie of the ring is a lesser genie than the one in the bottle, it would make sense that that genie couldn't grant Jafar what he wanted, so he then found the genie of the lamp. I don't remember there being a…
