Emma might need to go to Mr. Gold’s shop to do some snooping around. After watching last night’s episode, I like probably many others fell for Emma “getting” it but I knew that was too easy. But when she seen Henry and the Mad Hatter’s daughter, I think her believe is starting to come. She seen proof in the book and right before her eyes. No matter how “mad” Jefferson was to her in reality he was telling her the truth.

Certain physical objects seem to remain, while other pieces of Fairy Tale world ( memories, personal identities, dreams, hopes, ambitions ) have faded away.

The keys were a specific object detailed in the story. I’m sure Geppetto’s parents are drawn in the book also. I bring the puppets up, because Mr. Gold sure seems to have a lot of familiar trinkets in his pawn shop. Trinkets that came straight from Fairytale world, like for instance…oh…Geppetto’s puppet parents?

Maybe finding the objects that correlate to the stories is the key to Emma having her “proof” and to breaking the curse.

Just think of August as the show’s writers, and Emma Swan as standing for the clueless viewers, and listen when August keeps saying the answers to all the mysteries are hidden in plain sight, visible to the reader (viewer) who knows how to decipher the literary code–and the primary source of that literary code is Jane Austen’s greatest and most mysterious novel/fairy tale, Emma.

Again, I direct you to my several blog posts on this point, beginning with this one, which has had 2,383 hits during the past month, and keeps getting lots of hits even now:
