At the hospital.
Henry is wheeled in on a gurney as both Emma and Melissa follows. Dr. Whale and several nurses attend to him.
"Henry. Wake up, please. Come on, Henry. Come on. You can do it." Emma said as she is freaking out
"Ladies, let me take you to-" Dr. Whale said as Melissa interrupt his sentence
"No." Melissa said
"We're not going anywhere!" Emma said
"There's no pupil response. What happened? Did he fall? Hit his head?" Mr. Whale asked them
"He ate this." Melissa said
"We think it's poisoned." Emma said
Emma holds up a baggie containing the turnover.
"His airway's clear. Did he vomit? Any convulsion or disorientation?" Dr. Whale asked again
"He took a bite of this, and then he just collapsed." Emma said
"Run the test for arsenic, or bleach, or Drano, or whatever could've done this to him!" Melissa said
"The boy is showing no symptoms that would suggest neurotoxins. So, whatever's going on, this is not the culprit." Dr. Whale said
"Well, what else could it be?" Emma asked Dr. Whale
"I don't know. That's what I'm trying to find out." Dr. Whale said
"He's going to be okay, though, right?" Emma said
"Right now, we just need to stabilize him, cause he's slipping away. Is there anything else that both of you can remember? Any little detail?" Dr. Whale asked again
"We already told you everything. Do something!" Emma said
"Look, I understand you're frustrated, Miss Swan, I do. But I need something to treat. And, right now, there is no explanation." Dr. Whale said
"Emma. (Emma still looking at Henry.) Emma look at me. (She looks at Melissa.) Everything he said is true. It's time that you have to believe. (She dumps out the contents of Henry's backpack onto a table. She sees his book. She picks up the book and her mind is filled with memories from the Fairy Tale World, particularly the time when she was sent to the Real World as a baby.) You're back." Melissa said
"I guess so." Emma said
Regina frantically rushes into the room.
"Where's my son?" Regina said
"You did this. (Both Emma and Melissa grabs Regina and drags her to a storage room. There, Emma throws her against a storage rack. Emma continues the attack, while Regina struggles to defend herself. Emma ultimately ends up pinning Regina to the wall.) You did this!" Emma said
"What the hell are you doing? Stop this! My son-" Regina said as Melissa interrupt her sentence
"Is sick because of you Regina!" Melissa said
"That apple turnover you gave me? He ate it!" Emma said
"What? It was meant for you!" Regina said
"I tried giving him my blood to heal him." Melissa said
"It's true, isn't it?" Emma asked Regina
"What are you talking about?" Regina asked Emma
"It's true, isn't it? All of it." Emma said
"Yes." Regina said
"I was leaving town. Why couldn't you just leave things alone?" Emma asked again
"Because as long as you're alive, Henry will never be mine!" Regina said
"He'll never be anyone's unless you fix this. You wake him up!" Emma said
"I can't!" Regina said
"Don't you have magic?" Emma asked again
"That was the last of it. But someone in this town has magic. Isn't that right Miss Flair?" Regina asked Melissa
"You have magic?" Emma asked Melissa
"I'm part witch and part vampire. I don't have access to my magic. I'll explain later." Melissa said
"Back to the point. It was supposed to put you to sleep Miss Swan!" Regina said
Emma releases her grip on Regina.
"What's it going to do to him?" Emma asked again
"I don't know. Magic here is unpredictable." Regina said
"So… So he could…" Emma said as Regina interrupt her sentence
"Yes." Regina said
Regina thinking of something and looking at Melissa.
"What?" Melissa asked in confusion
"What would happened to your daughter if you died and someone kidnapped her?" Regina asked Melissa as she threatens her
"If you touch her. I swear..." Melissa said as Emma cuts her off
"Enough. So, what do we do?" Emma asked again
"We need help. There's another person in this town who knows about this… Knows about magic." Regina explains
"Gold?" Melissa said
"Actually, he goes by Rumpelstiltskin." Regina said
Emma, Margaret, and Regina enters Mr. Gold's Pawn Shop.
"Do my eyes deceive me, or is that the look of a believer?" Gold asked Emma
"We need your help." Emma said
"Indeed, you do. It seems quite the tragic ailment has befallen of our young friend. I told you, magic comes with a price." Gold said
"Henry shouldn't have to pay it." Regina said
"No, you should, but alas, we are where we are. Miss Flair did threaten me while I was choking." Gold said
"You threaten him?" Emma asked Melissa
"He almost hit me with a cane. So yes I did threaten him. He was just trying to figure out of what I am." Melissa said
"Can you help us?" Emma asked again
"Hasty now are we." Gold said
"Tell us what you know." Melissa said
"Of course. True love is the only magic powerful enough to transcend realms and break any curse. Luckily, I happen to have bottled some." Gold said
"You did?" Regina asked Gold
"Oh, yes. Miss Swan, from strands of your parents' hair, I made the most powerful potion in all the realm. So powerful, that when I created the dark curse, I placed a single drop on the parchment. Just a little safety valve." Gold said
"That's why I'm the savior. That's why I can break the curse." Emma said
"Now you're getting it." Gold said
"I don't care about breaking the curse. All I care about is saving Henry." Emma said
"Can we say please?" Melissa asked Gold
"It's your lucky day. I didn't use all the potion. I saved some… For a rainy day." Gold said
"Well, it's storming like a bitch. Where is it?" Emma asked again
"Where it is isn't the problem. Getting it is what should worry you." Gold said
"Enough riddles." Regina said
"What do we do?" Melissa asked again
"You and Miss Flair do nothing. It has to be Miss Swan." Gold said
"He's my son. It should be me." Regina said
"All due respect, but it's her son. And it has to be her. She's the product of the magic. She must be the one to find it." Gold said
"I can do it." Emma said
"Don't trust him." Regina said
"What choice do we have?" Melissa asked Regina
"That's right, dearie. What choice do you have?" Gold asked Regina
"We can't trust you. What exactly did you do? Oh, that's right. Screw everyone over." Melissa said
"Where is this magic?" Emma asked again
"Tell me, Your Majesty, is our friend still in the basement?" Gold asked again
"Oh, you twisted little imp. You hid it with her?" Regina asked again
"Oh, no, no. Not with her. In her. I knew you couldn't resist bringing her over." Mr. Gold said
"Who is 'her'?" Melissa asked again
"Someone that the savior should be prepared for. Where you're going, you're going to need this." Gold said
Gold opens a long box on the counter, revealing a sword and a scabbard.
"What is that?" Emma asked again
"Your father's sword." Gold said
At the hospital.
Emma speaks to a comatose Henry. She is holding the book. Melissa is watching them both at the window. She get's out her phone and dials the number.
"Hello" Mother Superior answered
"I know I'm supposed to be there. But I need you to keep her there a little longer." Melissa said
"May I ask of what is going on?" Mother Superior asked Melissa
"I'm at the hospital. Henry is sick. I'm staying with Emma." Melissa said
"I'll look out for her." Mother Superior said
"I know that Jenna is probably asleep now. If she wakes up tell her that I love her." Melissa said
"I will." Mother Superior said
"Thank you." Melissa thanking Mother Superior
"You're welcome." Mother Superior said
Melissa hangs up. Emma kisses her son on the forehead. Melissa sees Regina arrives as she goes to leave.
Mystic Falls Past.
Quarry
Melissa hides behind the trees. Klaus noticed she was behind the trees.
"Come out human hybrid." Klaus said
Melissa comes out of the trees.
"Let them go." Melissa said
"No. She's the goddess that I need." Klaus said
"Jenna has a family who's right there. (Melissa pointed at Elena.) And at home. You don't know anything about family do you?" Melissa asked Klaus
"I don't know what you're talking about." Klaus said
"Really. So you didn't dump your own siblings bodies at sea. (Klaus kept quiet.) Right. Cause you are scared like a little bitch. Now I'm going to ask you one more time. Let...them...go." Melissa said as she demands
"I'm thinking...no. (Melissa charged at Klaus but he put a stake on her back and miss the heart.) Sorry luv. But it's not your time to die." Klaus said
Melissa fell down. Jenna looks frightened. Elena, teary-eyed, watches on.
"No." Elena said
"Your turn." Klaus said to Jenna
"No, Jenna, no!" Elena said
Elena attempts to get to Jenna, but the fire around her flares up. Jenna looks over at her.
"It's alright, Elena. I know what I have to do." Jenna said
After a moment of shared silence between Jenna and Elena, Jenna vamp speeds to Greta and ferociously bites her neck. Greta screams. Klaus vamp speeds over to Jenna and stakes her in the back, pulling her off of Greta, who has fallen to the floor. Jenna gasps and Klaus releases her. Jenna falls to the ground. Elena starts to cry.
"Jenna, no! (Jenna looks up at Elena, tears in her eyes.) Just turn it off. Jenna. Turn it off. You won't be scared anymore. (Klaus flips Jenna over onto her back and hunches over her. Jenna seems less frightened when Klaus stakes her in the heart.) No! Jenna! No! Jenna!" Elena said
Elena cries in earnest now. Jenna's body starts to become grey and decayed. Klaus releases the stake from his grap and stands up. Jenna lays lifeless on the stone with the stake through her heart. Melissa with a stake to her back. She crawls to Jenna slowly and cries on top of her.
Storybrooke Present
Melissa knocks on the door of August's room at the inn.
"August? Please open up. I know you're in there. Open the door." Emma said
"I can't." August said
Melissa kicks down the door. Inside, they found August laying in bed, almost completely turned to wood. She runs to him in speed and she holds his face and crying.
"No. What's happening to you?" Emma asked August
"He's turning back into wood." Melissa said
"Emma, you can see it now. You believe." August said
"Yeah. I-I do, but… H-how do I stop this?" Emma asked again
"Break the curse." August said
"I'll try – I promise. But I got to save Henry first, and I need your help." Emma said
"No, you don't." August said
"Yeah, I do. This is all too much. I-I just… Talked to the Evil Queen and Rumpelstiltskin about a quest to find magic. I can't do it, August. I can't. No normal person can." Emma said
"Luckily for us, you're not normal. (August faces Melissa.) I need you to go with her." August said
"I want to stay here with you." Melissa said
"I know you do. But Emma need your help more then you need me. (August looks at Emma.) You can save Henry. You can save all of…" August said
August's body turns to wood.
"August? (Melissa was shaking August.) August!" Melissa said
"Melissa, we'll save him. But we have to save my son." Emma said
Melissa stands up.
"Let's go." Melissa said
Outside the library.
Both Emma and Melissa waits for Regina. Emma has her sword with her. Melissa had her bag with her. Regina arrives, and they enter the building.
"What is this place?" Emma asked Regina
"Would you like a tour, or shall we just get to it?" Regina asked Emma
"Lead the way. (Regina walks up to one of the walls and places her hand on it. The wall raises, revealing an elevator. The elevator door opens.) Whoa." Emma said
"Get in." Regina said
"After you." Melissa said
"The elevator's hand-operated. I have to stay up here and lower you down." Regina said
"And we're just supposed to trust you?" Melissa asked Regina
"I don't think you have much choice in the matter. Miss Flair, you should stay up here with me. Cause down there, Miss Swan has to do this alone." Regina said
"This battle I'm supposed to fight… Who is it?" Emma asked again
"What's down there?" Melissa asked again
"An old friend." Regina said
"Then why don't you go talk to them yourself?" Melissa asked again
"Because her punishment here was different than everyone else's. I trapped her… In a different form. She doesn't want to hear from me." Regina said
"I will go down there. But let's be clear about something… Your Majesty. The only reason you're not dead is because I need your help to save Henry. He dies? So do you." Emma said
"Well, then let's get on with it. Now, this is what you're going to have to do." Regina said
Emma enters the elevator and is lowered down a shaft.
2 hours now.
Emma scales the shaft and arrives back at the library. She finds Regina gagged and tied to a chair. Melissa was also tied up and she's been vervained.
"Regina." Emma said
Emma rips the tape off of Regina's mouth and begins to untie her.
"He tricked you! How could you give him that?" Regina asked Emma
"Where is he?" Emma asked Regina
"Gone. Gold. He manipulated all of this." Regina said as she was furious
Both Emma and Regina untie Melissa.
"I need blood. (Regina thought of something. She reached into Melissa's bag and a medium size box. Regina opens the box and she found two dead rats in there.) Give me the rats. (Regina gives Melissa the rats and she seeks her teeth into both of the rats and drink their blood. Both Regina and Emma are looking at her discussed.) I'm sorry." Melissa apologize
"Getting use to the whole hybrid thing." Emma said
"Gold can't be far." Melissa said
Both Emma and Regina's cell phones ring at the same time.
"It's the hospital." Emma said
"Henry!" Melissa said
They arrive at the hospital and rush to Henry's room. They arrive in time to see Dr. Whale and Mother Superior leaving the room. One of nuns was holding Melissa's daughter and gives her daughter to her.
"We did everything we could." Dr. Whale said
"I'm sorry. You're too late." Mother Superior apologize to Emma
Emma enters the room, where the nurse is unhooking the machines from Henry. Emma, Melissa, Jenna, Regina, Dr. Whale, and Mother Superior are gathered in Henry's room at the hospital.
"No… No…" Regina said as she was crying
Melissa holding her daughter in sadness.
"Henry you can't die like this." Melissa said
"I love you, Henry." Emma said
Emma kisses Henry on the forehead, which causes the spell he was under to be broken. A pulse of magic spreads throughout Storybrooke. He wakes up and gasps.
"I love you, too. You saved me." Henry said
"You did it." Regina said
"Of course she did it." Melissa said
The pulse of magic awakens everyone in the town. Soon, a crowd begins to gather in Henry's room.
"Henry… What's going on?" Emma asked her son
"The curse. I think you broke it." Henry said
"That was true love's kiss." Mother Superior said
"No, no…" Regina said as she was freaking out
"If I were you, Your Majesty, I'd find a place to hide." Mother Superior said
"Henry… No matter what you think, no matter what anyone tells you, I do love you." Regina said
Regina flees the room. Emma, Melissa, Jenna, and Henry, along with the others, are still at the hospital. A nurse suddenly drops the tray she was holding after she looks out the window. Emma goes to check what the problem is.
"Are you okay?" Emma asked the nurse
Emma also becomes entranced with something outside. Melissa, Emma and Henry are watching the purple smoke take over Storybrooke.
"What is that?" Melissa asked Henry
"Something bad." Henry said
