With how mild this latest "experiment" of Asaph's was, I get the distinct impression something much worse is likely coming soon.

Also, if anyone would like to keep complaining say that being stuck with someone else for a while wasn't very mild, make sure you've taken the time to either reflect on or, in the cases of new arrivals, learn about, the things that have happened in this city over the years. Then get back to me on how awful this most recent situation supposedly happened to be.

I forgot how weird these "updates from home" can be. Good news, Mary Margaret and I got back to Storybrooke. Bad news, Regina's batshit crazy evil mother Cora and Captain Hook followed us. And are now trying to take over and kill us all. Wonderful.

You remember how I told you about Neal, Henry's father, right? Apparently, back home, I found him again. He's Gold's son, Nate. Gold called in the favor I owed him back home, and hired me to track down his long-lost son for him. I found him in New York City.

I never thought I'd see him again. I never wanted to see him again. Not after what he did to me. Which, he apparently did because August (Pinocchio, who was supposed to be my "guardian" and help set me on the right path to break the curse, remember?) told him I needed to find my own path and he was only holding me back or something along those lines. So really, Neal leaving and me getting arrested was a good thing, since I did break the curse, right? It doesn't feel that way. I still felt betrayed and lied to. I still felt like he didn't loved me, that he just used me. I still have problems trusting people. Even though I've learned to trust people since I came to Storybrooke, and during my time here.

And the worst part? Henry now thinks I'm just as bad as Regina, because I lied to him about who his father was. I was just trying to protect him. I didn't think I'd ever see Neal again. I thought that was a part of my life I had left behind for good. I worked so hard to be a good mother to Henry, and just like that he thinks I'm just as bad as Regina. I wanted Henry to trust me, and now I'm not sure if I can never have that back again.

As glad as I am to be back with my husband, I really did have a nice time with my temporary replacement.

It was so nice meeting you, Crowley. You should come by sometime with your angel. I'll make coffee.

Dean, Sammy, are you boys doing okay?

Guys. I just had a thought.

Do you think I'm going to be a werewolf now?

Because I got mauled by a werewolf. But I didn't die. And I didn't really think about it until now, but doesn't that mean I'm going to be one too?

I don't want to be a werewolf.

OKAY, I GET IT! YOU DON'T FUCKIN' WANT ME IN THE DAMN LIBRARY! NO NEED TO KICK ME OUT LIKE THAT! I AM A STATE ALCHEMIST, YOU KNOW! WAIT, WHAT IS THIS THING? [static electricity is heard as Ed taps the PDA, not having a clue about the technology in front of him]

Is this thing working? Damn, I wish Fury were here at a time like this. He'd probably know how to fix this weird radio thing and make it work...Donkey Kong? Where're you at anyway? And that bastard Ling. WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON HERE?
