Max and Maddie rushed to the hospital, and arrived in time to see Emma push Regina into a closet and they followed, watching Emma push Regina into the wall,
"You did this!" Emma yelled.
"What the hell are you doing? Stop this! My son-"
"Is sick because of you! That apple turnover you gave me? He ate it!"
"What? It was meant for you!" Regina exclaimed.
"It's true, isn't it?" Emma questioned.
"What are you talking about?"
"It's true, isn't it? All of it." Emma repeated.
"Yes." She answered.
"I was leaving town. Why couldn't you just leave things alone?" Emma asked.
"Because as long as you're alive, Henry will never be mine!" Regina answered.
"He'll never be anyone's unless you fix this. You wake him up!"
"I can't!" Regina yelled.
"Don't you have magic?"
"That was the last of it. It was supposed to put you to sleep!"
Emma released Regina, "What's it going to do to him?"
"I don't know. Magic here is unpredictable." Regina said.
"So… So he could…" Max mumbled.
"Yes."
"So, what do we do?" Emma asked.
"We need help. There's one other person in this town who knows about this… Knows about magic." Regina answered.
"Mr. Gold." Emma stated.
"Actually, he goes by Rumpelstiltskin." Regina corrected.
"Oh, you've got to be kidding me." Max commented.
"C'mon ladies, we have to make a deal with the devil." Maddie said.
"Do my eyes deceive me, or is that the look of a believer?" Mr. Gold asked as the four walked into his shop.
"We need your help." Max and Maddie said.
"Indeed, you do. It seems quite the tragic ailment has befallen our young friend. I told you, magic comes with a price." Mr. Gold replied.
"Henry shouldn't have to pay it."
"No, you should, but alas, we are where we are." He responded.
"Can you help us?" Emma asked.
"Of course. True love, Miss Swan… The only magic powerful enough to transcend realms and break any curse. Luckily for you, I happen to have bottled some."
"You did?" Regina questioned
"Oh, yes. 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." Mr. Gold explained.
"That's why I'm the saviour. That's why I can break the curse." Emma said.
"Now you're getting it."
"I don't care about breaking the curse. All I care about is saving Henry." Emma replied.
"Which is why it's your lucky day. I didn't use all the potion. I saved some… For a rainy day."
"Well, it's storming like a bitch. Where is it?" She asked.
"Where it is isn't the problem. Getting it is what should worry you." Mr. Gold said.
"Enough riddles. What do we do?" Regina demanded.
"You do nothing. It has to be Miss Swan."
"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." Mr. Gold responded.
"I can do it." Emma said.
"Don't trust him."
"What choice do we have?" Emma replied.
"That's right, dearie. What choice do you have?"
"Where is this magic?" Emma asked.
"Tell me, Your Majesty, is our friend still in the basement?" Mr. Gold asked Regina.
"Oh, you twisted little imp. You hid it with her?"
"Oh, no, no. Not with her. In her. I knew you couldn't resist bringing her over." Mr. Gold responded.
Maddie's eyes widened, "Not-"
"Yes." Regina replied,
"Oh no."
"Oh yes." Mr Gold smirked.
"Who is 'her'?" Emma and Max asked.
"Someone you should be prepared for. Where you're going, you're going to need this." Mr. Gold opened a box, revealing a sword.
"What is that?" Emma asked.
"Your father's sword."
