Tonight is a whole new episode of ABC’s hit series Once Upon A Time called ‘Heart Of Darkness.’ On last week’s show called Red Handed it was all about giving us some background about Little Red Riding Hood and the Big Bad Wolf. At the end of the episode there was a big bombshell – Emma found a box containing a human heart and testing will tell her who the heart belongs to. Does it belong to Katherine, David’s wife who is missing?
I automatically assumed David would be someone implicated but there is a big problem… the prints on the box are Mary Margaret’s!!! Oh No! Regina really wants to get rid of Mary Margaret is this her plan?? If you missed the episode you can read our full recap here!
On this week’s episode Mary Margaret hires Mr. Gold as her attorney when Emma is forced to arrest her for the suspected murder of David’s wife, Kathryn. Meanwhile, back in the fairytale land that was, Prince Charming sets out to stop a determined and unhinged Snow White, whose memory is still clouded by Rumpelstiltskin’s potion, from assassinating the Evil Queen. This is sure to be one of my favorite episodes – any time Rumpelstiltskin/Mr. Gold is featured it is always a great episode. He is my favorite character on the show. What do you think, are you loving Rumpelstiltskin as much as I am??
We will be live blogging the show with all the up-to-the-minute details at 8PM EST so make sure to come back to this spot and watch the show with us. While you wait for the recap you can watch a sneak peek video of the episode here! Make sure to refresh often to get the most up-to-date updates!!
