We got to learn more about Dr. Whale's former life as Dr. Frankenstein. And we got to meet his brother, Gerhardt. His very nice looking brother, who becomes the monster. So, I guess it is true that Frankenstein is the monster - it's just another Frankenstein.
Observations:
I wonder who Emma called about the accident. Does she has help at the Sheriff's office? A deputy we don't know about?
Hook is lying on the ground, with broken ribs, and he still finds the strength to flirt with Emma. Ah, charming as ever.
I love that Frankenstein's flashback is in black and white. It's kind of cool. Having Rumpel in color is cool too; however, does that mean that Frankestein's world really is black and white? Hmm.
Ruby's a smart girl. She knows how may possible passcode combinations there are. Or, at least she sounds like she knows. I don't know if 10,000 is really the number of possible passcode combinations there are.
It's strange that Greg Mendel, the stranger, has no pictures of anyone but himself on his cell phone.
It's so funny that Greg's ring tone is the theme from Star Wars. Welcome to the Disney family, Star Wars.
Rumpel tells Dr. Frankenstein that his name is Rumpel Von Stiltskin. Is that a joke, or is his first name really Rumpel and his last name Von Stiltskin. If yes, that's pretty funny.
How does Rumpel get to Frankenstein's realm? If he can get to different realms, then why did he need a curse to get to ours?
What is Frankenstein's realm? Fiction Land? Who else is there? Dracula? Moby Dick? Mr. Darcy? Katniss? Or is it only fiction from public domain? Are there additional lands based on genre? Literary Fiction Land, Horror Fiction Land, Romantic Fiction Land, Fantasy Fiction Land, Science Fiction Land. Is Once Upon a Time really going to add more and more and more and more and more characters ad nauseum? I hope not.
How did Rumpel go from wanting to teach Cora and Regina magic to disliking both of them and conspiring against them?
Poor Ruby. She's become the official town bloodhound. *wink*
Dr. Frankenstein is a monster - allowing his brother to kill their father.
Come on Regina, don't let Cora manipulate you! You know better than anyone what she can do.
Will there be romance between Dr. Whale (does he have a first name in Storybrooke?) and Ruby? Victor and the wolf. It has a nice ring to it. But Peter was better looking.
If Gerhardt only needed a new heart, why does he have stitches everywhere?
You would think that if Mr. Gold could repair Belle's wound after she was shot, he could repair a cup.
When you ask someone who was in an accident what they saw right before they had the accident what they saw, and they say, "I didn't see anything," you might be a little suspicious that they might have seen something out of the ordinary and they don't want to tell you they saw something out of the ordinary.
The big question of the episode: Who is Greg Mendel? And who is "Her"?
Quotes:
Emma: I think the world just came to Storybrooke.
Victor: The name "Frankenstein" is going to stand for life.
Emma: You're awfully chipper for a man who failed to kill his enemy, then got hit by a car.
Hook: I hurt his heart. Belle's just where he keeps it.
Emma: Keep smiling, buddy. You're chained down. He's on his feet, immortal, has magic, and you hurt his girl. If I were to pick "Dead Guy of the Year," I'd pick you.
David: We've gotta get in his phone. Let me guess his passcode.
Mary Margaret: You can't guess it. There are a million possible combinations.
Ruby: Ten thousand.
Mary Margaret: Ten thousand.
Emma: I think what we have here is a well documented, real life, ordinary Joe - or Greg.
David: Anyone could drive in. Why are my instincts telling me that's a bad thing?
Leroy: Cause you've seen E.T. or Splash or any other movie where they find something magical and study it to death. Think of what they'd do to a werewolf.
Mr. Gold: I thought you were dead, but hey, disappointment's just part of life. I'm sure we can agree on that.
Cora: Ah, the crocodile snaps at the little bird.
David: You got his scent?
Ruby: Boozey.
Emma: Ruby, get going. Bring back... Dr. Frankenstein. We'll send this guy home with bolts in his neck.
Regina: How did you get through?
Cora: Determination.
Dr. Whale: I wanted my name to stand for life. But everybody thinks it's the name of a monster. I guess they're right about that.
(Side note: I'm so glad that the writers wrote this line for Dr. Whale, because many people do think that Frankenstein is the monster, not its creator. Let's educate people. *wink*)
Ruby: Look, you're Frankenstein, and I'm the werewolf. I ate my boyfriend. Regina thought she was punishing us by erasing who we were, and I think she underestimated how much crap we wanted to forget.
Cora: These carriages are strange.
Cora: Let me into your heart. Together we can get him back.
Regina: How?
Cora: Oh, I have a few thoughts.
Dr. Whale (to Ruby): Thank you. Monster to monster.
Leroy: Tellin' you right now - this'll come to no good.
David: Quiet, Leroy.
Emma: We're not talking to him as a group. We're not a group Sheriff.
Emma: In a normal town the Sheriff goes in to ask a few questions. She doesn't bring her parents in with her.
David: That's probably true.
Mary Margaret: Rumpel and Captain Hook had a fight and someone got hurt.
Emma: We weren't sure if Dr. Frankenstein could fix him, but he did.
(Side note: Only on Once Upon a Time would you hear that dialogue.)
Henry: Doctor? Oh, that's who Dr. Whale is.
Emma: Yea. But without the neck bolts.
Henry: The monster had the neck bolts not the Doctor
(Side note: Actually, the monster only had neck bolts in some of the movies. He didn't have neck bolts in the original book.)
Emma: Right, but some of us, having known him think it's weird.
Mary Margaret: It's not weird. We're past it. We were cursed.
