OUAT- Heh, as I said before, if the producers don't want people to ship Swan Queen, maybe they shouldn't make it so easy to ship! I mean, they constantly have Emma and Regina go through traditional plots and tropes reserved for love interests. If one of them were a guy, people would have no doubt they were in to each other. And when they aren't off fighting evil, their mothering of Henry makes them seem like a lesbian couple!
So turns out the sword can actually hurt EQ, so she goes and steals the lamp from Jasmine, and wishes Emma was never the savior. You know how I disdain things being unwritten and creating AUs, but thankfully she only got sent to a version of the Enchanted Forest where her parents beat EQ and thus she didn't have to be the savior. Everyone else was still in the real world.
But yeah, Regina realizes since she and EQ are the same person, she's technically also the lamp's master, allowing Aladdin to grant her wishes too. But heh, instead of wishing Emma back or something easy, she wishes herself to be where Emma is! First off, gay! Secondly, she has no idea where Emma got sent to! It could be hell or something equally horrible. But she just blindly wishes to be sent there without hesitation. Like I said, this is a level of devotion normally reserved for love interests.
And then when she sees Emma, she's humming the "One Day My Prince Will Come" song, right as Regina shows up in a weird, prince-ly looking jacket. I mean, seriously, the show must be doing this on purpose. Alas, she can't convince Emma who she is, and ends up having to run away when the Charmings attack.
So she goes to this world's version of Rumpel, still trapped in his cell like in the beginning of the series. She frees him in exchange for a magic bean for she and Emma to get back when she finally does rescue her. Rumpel also tells Regina that Emma became the savior because she had a villain to fight, Regina. So then Regina adopts the EQ's look to try and force a confrontation with Emma, hopefully spark something within her.
She kidnaps the Charmings, and Emma shows up... to surrender the kindgom. Regina is like, "WTF?!" And since she thinks this world isn't "real" Regina has no qualms trying to kill these fake versions of Snow and David. So, she rips out their hearts, threatening to kill Emma's parents if she doesn't stop her. But even this isn't enough to wake her up. So, fake Henry shows up, ready to kill Regina. Because its Henry, she won't fight back. She's already to accept death, and its only when Regina is on the verge of getting killed the Emma remembers herself. Again, gay!
But yeah, they meet up with Rumpel and get the magic bean and open a portal, only for Robin to show up to try and rob them. Which is kinda ridiculous, like of all the times he could try and rob them, he sees a freaking magical portal show up and thinks, "Yeah, these are people I want to mess with!" But yeah, Regina sees Robin, and she hesitates, not going into the portal. Emma tries to remind Regina that that's not the real Robin. And again, the show continues to demonstrate their devotion for each other that Emma refuses to jump in the portal by herself. If Regina won't go, she's not leaving her. So now they're stuck in AU-Enchanted Forest.
Back in the real world, David gets sick of waiting and manages to get a hold of the lamp. Only he wishes for Aladdin to give the EQ exactly what she deserves. WTF would you phrase it like that?! That's incredibly vague, and being incredibly vague with a genie is like the worst thing ever. So nothing seems to happen and David thinks he effed up.
Only when EQ is walking down the street later, the hooded person appears in Storybrooke via a portal and turns her into a cobra, trapped in a cage. But the dwarfs see this, and warn David that the hooded person is in Storybrooke. And who is under the hood? Gideon! He ends up showing up in Gold's shop to confront his parents.
How did this happen? Well, looks like Blue get ambushed by the Black Fairy, who spirited her grandson away to "another dimension where time runs differently", hence him being all grown up now.
