At Granny's diner.
"I'm going after Gold. He made this happen. He needs to answer for it." Emma said
"Careful. Don't go off half-cocked." Hook said
Melissa holding her son.
"Hook's right. He wants you angry." David said
"Yeah, well, I am angry. That doesn't mean he's gonna get what he's after. Do I wish I could change what I did to Cruella? Yes. But that's regret, not darkness. I think we've all done things we regret." Emma said
"Right now, we have one priority...how to keep Gold and the Author from causing any more damage." Melissa said
Maleficent enters.
"I might be able to help with that. It now appears we have a common foe... Rumplestiltskin." Maleficent said
"He resurrected you." David said
"To help himself, not me. Cruella's death only confirmed that." Maleficent said
"Oh. Now you want to turn on him before he turns on you." Hook said
"I knew Gold couldn't keep the dragon on her leash for long." Regina said
"What do you want?" Mary Margaret asked Maleficent
"Nothing from you. But your daughter, I hear, has a talent for finding people." Maleficent said
"Yeah, I do." Emma said
"Who do you want found dragon?" Melissa asked Maleficent
"My daughter." Maleficent said
"She's alive?" Mary Margaret asked Maleficent
"Yes. She survived the journey to this land... The journey you sent her on. You want to prevent Rumplestiltskin from achieving whatever he wants. What better way than leaving this town and helping me?" Maleficent asked Emma
"I'm not running away from Gold." Emma said
"It's not running from him. It's hindering him." Maleficent said
"What do you know about her?" Melissa asked again
"Just what the Dark One showed me... That she was banished to this world 30 years ago, to a place called Minnesota, where she was adopted by a couple. And they named her Lilith." Maleficent said
"No." Emma said
"Emma? What is it?" Hook asked Emma
"The same Lily." Melissa said
Sheriff station.
"With Lily and my parents and Gold. I can't leave everyone here. But I have to find Lily and I don't know how I can be here and there at the same time." Emma said
"Maybe you won't have to." Melissa said
"What are you up too?" Emma asked Melissa
"I've been thinking and...well. It's more complicated." Melissa said
"Whatever you're holding back. Don't." Emma said
"If you're willing to risk it." Melissa said
"Yes. Just tell me." Emma said
"I look through the grimore and there's a switching spell. I'm not talking about body swap. I'm talking about switching our powers." Melissa said
"Switching? Our powers?" Emma asked again
"I know that you would never need it. But just in case." Melissa said
"Do it." Emma said
Melissa chanting.
"Phasmatos de Petrovas, audi me. Switch magia mea, et adversarios deferat. Sit. Spirit of the Petrovas, Hear me. Switch mine and my opponents magic. Let it be." Melissa stops chanting
The room was shaking.
"What the hell is happening?" Emma asked again
"It's the Petrova's. They're pissed. (Melissa looked up.) Nadia, I know you can hear me. You're nothing like your mother. Katerina Petrova. (The room kept shaking.) I know. If I found a way to bring back you I would. Don't do it for me. Do it for the smallest descendants. Do it for my kids." Melissa begged
The room stop shaking. A light blast. Both Melissa and Emma looked at each other.
"My expression told me it worked." Emma said
"I believe it did. (Melissa's letting Emma borrow the grimore.) Here." Melissa said
"I don't know." Emma said
"If you're going to be a temporary witch. You better start studying." Melissa said
"Maybe I can just stay and handle things here." Emma said
"No. I'll handle the Sheriff station. You go on and bring Lily back and help Regina bring..." Melissa said as Emma finishes her sentence
"Robin Hood and Roland." Emma said
"And I'll switch our powers back. Now go." Melissa said
Emma hugs Melissa. Emma leaves.
Working on the papers. Hook walks in.
"Emma tells me that you're in charge of the station." Hook said
"Someone has too. Still can't trust her parents." Melissa said
"But why did you..." Hook asked as Melissa finishes his sentence
"Switch our powers? She needs it. But when they get back I'll switch it back. Anything from Gold?" Melissa asked Hook
"No. Nothing." Hook said
"I just hope that I can do this. I mean if Graham was here then he would've taught me more stuff about being a good detective." Melissa said
"Even so. Many people here think that you're doing great job." Hook said
"I've never actually done it myself before." Melissa said
"See. Now who's losing hope. (Melissa sighs.) If you can marry some puppet and get a happy ending. Then you can be a great detective." Hook said
"Thank you. (Hook extended his flask to Melissa.) Seriously?" Melissa asked again
"Works for me." Hook said
Melissa takes the flask and takes a sip.
"It's always got to be rum. (Melissa gives it back to him.) Back in mystic falls. Damon ask me what do I want for my future to be. You want to know what I said?" Melissa asked again
"Indeed." Hook said
"I said, "I needed to leave Mystic Falls. All that hell and suffering. It sucked. Of course I had a boyfriend and...well, he did travel a little a bit. But he cheated on me. I wanted more then just all of that vampire crap. Wanted something more for my life. For myself and Jenna's." Then I realize that I'm here in this place. Place where I belonged. Somewhere that could give me hope." Melissa said
"You have to believe in yourself. Believe that you can do this." Hook said
Melissa smiles at Hook.
"I should find out anything. If he's out there." Melissa said
"You need help?" Hook asked again
"Nope. I got this. But thanks." Melissa thanking Hook
Melissa leaves.
Melissa looks around. She sees Will running with one of Regina's box. She pulls out her gun and aims it at him.
"Don't take another. (Will stops.) Turn around. (Will turns around.) Answer me and answer me correctly." Melissa said
"Alright." Will said
"Why do you have one of Regina's boxes?" Melissa asked Will
"It's not any of your concern." Will said
Melissa touched his wrist and see a glimpse of something. She lower her gun.
"Go." Melissa said
Will ran off.
