"Who's your friend?" Pearl asked her daughter
"My name's Margaret Flair. I'm a friend of the Salvatores." Melissa said
"And they don't know you're here?" Pearl asked Melissa
"No. Me and your daughter used to spend time together. We gone shopping together and talking about favorite stuff in the world." Melissa said
"Any friend of my daughter's is a friend of mine. You can come in." Pearl said
"I'm no vampire." Melissa said
"I know. (Melissa comes in. She sees a lot of hunger and vengeful vampires.) Don't feed on her. She's our guest. (They walked in the kitchen.) Can we get you something to drink?" Pearl asked again
"Water...mom." Anna said

"Thank you." Harper thanking Melissa
"You're welcome." Melissa said
Pearl hands Melissa the water bottle. She drinks it.
"So why're you really here?" Pearl asked again
"I've seen the news the other day about a dead body. I've figured that it was one of the tomb vampires." Melissa said
"You came here to gloat?" Anna asked Melissa
"No! I just wanted to help. You guys are new to this world and..." Melissa said as Harper interrupt her sentence
"It was me. I didn't want people to know who I am." Harper said

Melissa, Emma, and Henry wait outside in Emma's car.
"Operation Cobra was about breaking the curse. This is about keeping Storybrooke secret. We need a new name." Henry said
"Operation Tiger." Emma said
"Why?" Henry asked his mom
"I need a why?" Emma asked her son
"You never need a why." Melissa said
"I want something like the town, something that hides in plain sight. Something like a praying mantis." Henry said
Door bells jingle in distance.
"Oh! Duck." Emma said
They duck.
"No, it's not them." Melissa said
"Stakeouts are fun." Henry said
"Not usually." Melissa said
"I thought by now we'd be having adventures. Over there, you know? Riding horses, shooting bow and arrows. This is cool, too." Henry said
"Is that still something you want? I mean, if there was a way to... go back to the enchanted forest?" Emma asked again
"Is there?" Henry asked again
"No, don't be crazy." Emma said
"There is. A way back. The—a bean or something. The giant brought it, didn't he?" Henry asked again
"Yep." Melissa said
"That's awesome! Duck! (They duck. Tamara and Greg leave the building.) Operation Praying Mantis is on." Henry said

"Have you completely lost it? We're talking about Pearl." Damon said
"No. Some of the vampires that needs to fit in. Find where they belong." Melissa said
"Damn it Margaret. You're still pregnant." Damon said
"And you can't stop me. I'm going to help Harper. End of discussion." Melissa said

Storybrooke Present.
At the Inn.
Emma begins picking the lock of Neal and Tamara's room.
"Hang on. I almost got it." Emma said
"So once we find proof that Tamara's evil, I guess the wedding's off?" Henry asked his mom
"Henry... Neal and I are not getting back together. You know that, right?" Emma asked her son
"I mean, once he's single, it could happen." Henry said
"Who knows. There might be a chance." Melissa said
"I am onto Tamara for other reasons, not because she's with Neal, okay? (Whispers) Go. Go, go, go. (Lock clicks) Ah! Yes! Unh-unh! Unh-unh! You gotta be the lookout." Emma said
"But—but what do I do? Whistle?" Henry asked again
"No, that's too obvious. You gotta hit the door. You know, like, just like... (Thumps door) like, kick it like you're bored. Like... (Kicks door twice) Or, like, stumble into it. (Thumps door) Like, oh, I'm... you know?" Emma asked again
"Just hit the door." Melissa said
"Hit the door." Henry said
"Yeah." Melissa said
"Got it." Henry said
"Now go." Melissa said
Both Emma and Melissa begins sifting through Neal and Tamara's things in the room. After coming up empty handed after searching their closet and under their bed, Emma hopes that a creaky tile in the floor will yield some evidence.
"Gotcha." Emma said
"What did you find?" Melissa asked Emma
Henry sees his father so he bangs the door.
"Oh, hell no. I taught her that. Emma! Melissa! Mm." Neal said
Neal and his son enter the room.
"So you weren't here, and the door was open, and we just..." Emma said as Neal cuts her off
"What's-what's this about?" Neal asked them
"Tamara. I think she's playing you." Emma said
"She's playing me? How?" Neal asked again
"We think she's the "she" August was trying to warn us about. We didn't wanna tell you until we had proof." Melissa said
"Oh. (Chuckles) Okay, yeah. Well, as long as you broke into our room to spare my feelings... Are you both out of your freakin minds?" Neal asked again
"He warned us about a woman." Melissa said
"Yeah, which covers half the world." Neal said
"She lied to me. Remember I had that thing with lies?" Emma asked Neal
"You thought you had a thing with lies. I never bought it." Neal said
"Yeah, you did. Listen to me, Neal. She's got a list of fairy tale characters and who they are—whoever she's gonna give that to, could blow this whole town right open." Emma said
"Emma, I helped her make that list. It was to help her come to grips with this place. It's not easy, you know? I mean, she's trying to deal with it for me." Neal said
"Okay, I know what this looks like, but it isn't that. Do I look like a jealous ex? Okay, maybe I'm crazy. But let's find out. There's a floorboard loose. It shouldn't be. So let's look under it. If there's nothing there, fine. We'll back off." Emma said
"Okay. Yeah, sure. What the hell?" Neal asked again
"A little help?" Emma asked again
"Oh. Right. (Both Neal and Emma remove the floorboard, which contains nothing.) Listen. I know Tamara being here is a little awkward-" Neal said
"Don't. Let's go." Emma said
Melissa, Emma, and Henry leave.

Here's some of the clean clothes. I'm pretty sure they're your size and the bathroom is upstairs to go change. (Harper looked at her confused.) Oh. It means you can't change in here. Like if someone walks in or someone like me standing here. (He walks up there and she waits for him for 5 minutes and walks downstairs.) You look...good. (He smiled at her.) Well the night is still young. So, let's go the grill." Melissa said
