Once Upon A Time 2.16


Rose McGowan. Great performances from everyone as we get the Cora backstory and the end of the Cora story arc.



As usual, the show delves into the characters and their motivations, and this episode makes us genuinely feel for Cora, Rumplestiltskin, Regina and Mary Margaret. Quite an accomplishment: to make us empathise so much for the ‘baddies’.



It’s all about love, really. No surprise then that the best scene is probably the one where Belle gets a phone call with an outpouring of love for her. 9/10
