The goal of the episode is for us to give our first thoughts, warts and all.
I emailed a very nice gentleman at ABC and asked:
“Hello Jeffrey, I host the Once Upon a Time Fan Podcast and I had a question about rating numbers for OUAT. When the press releases viewing numbers, is it just the numbers of persons being tracked watching the episode live on Sunday night, or does it include DVR recordings as well? Do viewing numbers also figure in episode views on ABC.com or Hulu.com at some point as well? Thanks for you input on this. I really appreciate it. Jeff Roney”
His response:
“Hi Jeff – The numbers released the next day (Nielsen’s Live + Same Day Ratings) do include DVR TV viewing from the live telecast that night up until 3am that morning. Then after approximately 2 weeks, all DVR viewing for the 7 period (Live + 7 Day Ratings) following the initial telecast become available from Nielsen.
Nielsen does not currently incorporate online viewing into its television ratings, so numbers from ABC.com and Hulu are not included.
Hopefully that answers your questions.
Best
Jeff”
It it so cool that ABC does care enough to answer questions and keep communication with fans open. That is great. 🙂

So, Rumpelstiltskin steals the mysterious dagger with the “true” name of “the Dark One,” on it which was ZOSO.
When I first saw ZOSO, the first thing that came to my head was Led Zeppelin 4, which is also called “the Runes album,” or also “ZOSO” because of some mysterious Rune-ish symbols on it.
However, also on the album cover, there is also a robed man carrying a lantern, carrying a staff, as well. To me, he looks a bit like pre-Dark powered Rumpel (because once he got the dark power, he no longer needed the staff to walk). Just sayin’
