Love how dark and fast paced this season is. Love how we get more Robert Carlyle in this episode as well. Next week should be interesting with Emma and Hook hooking up.

Probably the best episode from this series in a long time. I still am not sure I completely buy how evil this kid playing Peter Pan presents himself, but any episode starring Rumplestiltskin is a good one.

I'm a bit surprised at the fast paced comment. For me this season has been going so slow -- I feel as if the entire season thus far could have been condensed in to one episode. Maybe one and a half.

Same here. The island is starting to wear on me ...

I want them back in Storybrooke. This show is full of fake-looking visual effects. I don't need a fake-looking jungle too.

I'm tired of Pan. The actor chosen is just far too weak to pose a believable threat. He came across even worse in his scenes opposite Robert Carlyle.

That said, at least he's better than Taser Girl. But I really miss Barbara Hershey. I wish they'd resurrect Cora so we'd get a real villain back on the show.

By the way, is Emilie de Ravin pregnant? Cos she seemed to be sporting a baby belly during her few scenes.

I think Pan is a breath of fresh life into the show, especially after taser girl and her side kick. And I don't think he is the MAIN threat anyways, as are the shadow creatures. I think the guy playing Pan is going to just be the puppet for the big bang. Not to mention, anyone across from Robert is going to look weak...he IS the ultimate bad guy, after all. I guess I'm the only one that found Cora annoying. She was a real villain, but I couldn't stand her character. And I do like the jungle as well. Not much can be done at Storybrooke anymore.

PhantomStranger

I would trade Pan for Cora in an instant. The problem with this show is that it had to turn its best villain, Mr. Gold, into a quasi-good guy because Carlyle is such a good actor.
