Any significance to the license plate on Wendy’s brothers’ car?

Posted on November 13, 2013 | 6 comments

In the beginning of episode 3×07 Dark Hollow, Wendy’s brothers sped into Storybrooke just as the cloaking spell was coming down to seal off the town and keep them out. The brothers made it in just in the nick of time, but the spell sliced off their back fender, including their license plate.

The camera zoomed in on the plate, which we could see was Minnesota plate number 0920 EAW, with an expiration date of February 2014. The plate also said “100000 Lakes,” which is the normal slogan printed on Minnesota plates. Here’s a screenshot (click on it for a larger image):

Who should Emma choose — Hook or Neal (or neither)?

Posted on November 11, 2013 | 7 comments
Emma and Neal, or ....

Emma and Neal, or ….

... Emma and Hook?

… Emma and Hook?

After Emma finds and rescues Henry, which of her two suitors should she choose?

Should it be Neal_Bae, the father of her child, the past (and present?) love of her life, and the man who deserted her, though it wasn’t really his fault? On the plus side, the Emma-Neal pairing, uniting the families of the Charmings and the Dark One, feels like destiny. On the minus side, Neal is boring.

Or should it be the witty, handsome Hook, who turned out to have a respectable background for a pirate? On the plus side, the Emma-Hook pairing sizzles with great chemistry. On the minus side, the pairing would prevent Henry from having the chance to live in a household with both of his parents. Also, Hook is a pirate.

If you like LOST analogies, I think Captain Swan (Hook and Emma) is like Skate (Sawyer and Kate) — each has a bad boy and a former criminal in a match that lights up the screen — while Swanfire (Neal and Emma) is like Jate (Jack and Kate) — a safer, more traditional match that brings out the more domestic sides of the characters while redeeming them from their troubled past.

What do you think?
