Once Upon a Time, Season 5

Regina:
I should be figuring out how to free Merlin, not fox-trotting away across Club Med-ieval.

Emma:
[after Regina blames her for sending the Fury to attack Robin] I did not summon that monster. The price is not mine to pay.

Regina:
Then whose is it?

Emma:
Yours. You are the one who did not pay the price of magic in Camelot. You want to save Robin Hood? You want everyone to believe you're the Savior? Then step up and do what needs to be done!

Rumplestiltskin:
[after Emma fails to remove Excalibur from the stone] Did you really think it would be that simple, dearie? If you want that sword, you're gonna have to pay the price.

Leroy:
I know Dopey's a tree, but we got to be more productive since he can't.

Happy:
He's producing oxygen.

Zelena:
This child could be my only chance for someone to truly love me, and... You got a second chance. Why can't I?

Regina:
I'm sorry. But you've had a second chance. And a second second chance.

Mr. Gold:
[after realizing the Darkness has fully consumed Emma] What do you want from me? You're the Dark One now. Not me.

Emma:
That's right. You are not dark. You are also not light. You are nothing. Your heart is a blank slate. And that, little man, makes you useful.

Kay:
They call Camelot "The Broken Kingdom" because we have no king, and we never will.

Regina:
You really think giving the dagger to Arthur is the best way to help Emma?

Mary Margaret:
We trust him.

David:
Implicitly.

Regina:
Did you learn those big words at shepherd school?

Merida:
I refused to believe a bow was just something my mother tied to my curly locks.

Zelena:
Your insane girlfriend sped up my pregnancy, kidnapped me right after giving birth, and separated me from my little girl. And they say I'm wicked.

King Fergus:
You don't have to worry about me, lass. I'm the Bear King. I faced Mor'du. I can handle whatever the Southern invaders throw at us.

Brennan Jones:
Remember, whenever you feel scared, all you have to do is look inside. We're all braver than we think if we just look deep enough. Before you know it, you're gonna be a man, so I'm just trying to prepare you. 'Cause then, you're gonna have to answer life's big question. What kind of man are you going to be?

Regina:
I understand you think Emma betrayed you, but do you really think dragging her family to the Underworld's the answer?

Hook:
This from the woman who enacted the Dark Curse to punish Snow White for telling a secret. You of all people should know how far someone will go for revenge. And unfortunately for you, so do all the people you've killed who are waiting for you in hell.

Regina:
It's time to drop the act. You can't just sit back and watch another family be destroyed to get your revenge.

Hook:
What makes you think I can't?

Regina:
Because of what we swore to never speak of again. I know the real reason you don't want to talk about what you did to your father.

Hook:
I believe we've already had this conversation...

Regina:
But this time you're going to listen. Because, if you don't, you're gonna regret it for the rest of your life. Which, in your case, means forever. So you have to ask yourself the same question you did that night. What kind of man do you want to be?

Hades:
Did you hear that, Cora?

Cora:
The music? Yes. But I've never been very fond of the violin.

Hades:
I wouldn't expect a miller's daughter to appreciate a virtuoso like Paganini, but– No, I didn't mean the music. I was talking about the clock.

[Mr. Gold enters the Underworld version of his shop to see a thread wheel spinning rapidly. He walks further into the shop and sees the chipped cup and its matching saucer on a table. Gold flashbacks to when he told Belle he was going to the Underworld.]

Belle:
The Underworld?

Mr. Gold:
I'll only be gone for a day. Just long enough to retrieve Hook.

Belle:
I– I don't understand. Why you?

Mr. Gold:
Because, Belle, I'm the only who's been there. Plus, my blood can summon the ferry.

[Mr. Gold and Belle kiss.]

Belle:
Just come back to me.

Mr. Gold:
I always do.

[The flashback ends. Gold is holding the chipped cup in his hands. He puts it back down on the table, then notices his childhood doll on a table. He then makes his way behind the counter, where he approaches the painting attached to the wall behind the counter and pulls it open, revealing a safe hidden behind the painting. Gold punches in the combination and opens the door, but finds nothing in the safe.]

Peter Pan:
[Appears behind Gold] Looking for something?

Mr. Gold:
[Turns to face Pan] Peter Pan. I certainly wasn't looking for you.

Peter Pan:
Oh, come on, son, don't be like that. Aren't you glad to see your dear old father?

Mr. Gold:
Well, just because you, uh, sired me– that doesn't make you my father. [Steps out from behind the counter, then stops in front of his father] Step aside.

Peter Pan:
[Moves aside] Keep looking for as long as you like. But down here, this is my shop– and you won't find anything unless I want you to.

[Mr. Gold continues looking around.]

Mr. Gold:
Be careful with your threats.

Peter Pan:
Or what? You'll kill me again? Maybe it's time to put the past behind us. This is what you're looking for, right?

[Mr. Gold turns around and sees Pan holding a potion in his hand. Pan puts it down on the table next to the straw doll.]

Peter Pan:
Go on. Take it.

Mr. Gold:
How generous. How many strings are attached?

Peter Pan:
No strings. Rumple, I meant what I said before I died. I– I do want to start over.

Mr. Gold:
Never gonna happen. I sent you here for a reason.

Peter Pan:
I miss the world above, the tastes, the smells.

Mr. Gold:
Sorry. You can't go back.

Peter Pan:
Not unless I trade places with a living soul. And those people you came down with, they are not your friends, and they are living– for now. Maybe one of them doesn't make the trip back– but your dear old dad does.

Mr. Gold:
Not interested.

Peter Pan:
Not yet. But– [Picks up the potion] –this one's on the house for today. [Holds out the potion for his son to take] A gesture of goodwill– from a father to his son.

[Gold looks at the potion, then looks at his father.]

Hercules:
You can't let the fear of failing stop you from trying.

Dead Eye:
Are you sure you don't want me to kill her?

Evil Queen:
I won't turn her into a martyr for these people to worship. No. I have to turn them against her. And these miserable people will finally realize the truth. I am meant to be their queen.

Emma:
[after Hades reveals Hook's bloodied hook] What did you do to him?

Hades:
It's not what I've already done you should worry about now. It's what I'm about to do.

Peter Pan:
[Voiceover as Mr. Gold reads the note] My son, this shop is yours to do with as you wish, and my offer still stands. Use what's in the case when you want to accept it, and we can be a family again. Your father.

Fendrake:
I know who you are, Dark One.

Rumplestiltskin:
Well, I imagine you do.

Fendrake:
You weren't like this before.

Rumplestiltskin:
That's right. I was a mortal man then. And a moral one. A man in a desperate situation. And you took advantage. And I admire that a great deal. Full points. But I don't like carrying debt.

Fendrake:
Unfortunately, Dark One, the contract is binding. Even if I wanted to change it, I couldn't. You owe me.

Rumplestiltskin:
[Giggles] I owe you! That's right, but I can't owe a debt to a dead man. [Rips out Fendrake's heart] Now– I don't like debts. But I do love a loophole. [Crushes Fendrake's heart and kills him]

Hades:
[After summoning Fendrake and revealing him to Gold] Remember him? You two had a contract. You tried to void it by killing him during a certain potentially baby-making liaison with your protege, the Evil Queen's mother Cora. You rascal! [Chuckles] Which seemed smart at the time, but it turns out death doesn't actually nullify a contract. Not down here. Because here he is. And here's the contract– [Produces the contract] which he just signed over to me. So, just to be super extra clear, at any time, I can cash in the debt and take your baby. All magic comes with a price. And now, Dark One, the price is you work for me.

Hook:
Can't wait to see the look on his face when he learns a valuable lesson: One should never mess with the Brothers Jones.

Hades:
[after deducing Zelena is thinking about Regina] You know how some people say they look up to their older siblings like gods? Well, my older brother is a god. Zeus. Ever hear of him? He got everything he ever wanted. He rules Mount Olympus while I'm trapped ruling the Underworld. He stopped my heart. Love, happiness, joy... They've all been taken from me. What I'm left with is only anger and a thirst for vengeance.

Regina:
When I was the Evil Queen, I spent every day not giving a damn about anyone. And in return, no one cared about me. I thought all I needed was my vengeance to keep me warm at night. But then something happened. My enemies became my family... and that's when I finally felt happy.

Zelena:
[after learning that Hades brought her to the Underworld because he loves her] You made me my very own Storybrooke?

Hades:
I gave you what you wanted, what she had. It's not... perfect. The Underworld is a place of, uh... well, destruction. Despite my best intentions, things don't grow here. They decay. But it's our decay.

Gaston:
Her Handsome Hero... Interesting. Wouldn't have picked you for a fan of cheap romance.

Belle:
No! No. This is not like that. This book is about compassion and forgiveness– the things that truly make a hero.

Ruby:
You left without saying anything.

Dorothy:
I was afraid. I couldn't lose you to Zelena.

Ruby:
Well, yeah, but– I almost lost you.

Dorothy:
You didn't. You came back for me.

Ruby:
I always will.

Young Regina:
[While watching Young Zelena being removed from the Royal Manor] No matter what she does, we're sisters! And nothing can change that! I will find you! I promise!

[Peter Pan approaches Mr. Gold and Zelena.]

Zelena:
Who's this?

Mr. Gold:
Well, he's what I like to call a loophole. Zelena, meet my father, Peter Pan.

Peter Pan:
I hear you're wicked. Well, I'm much worse.

[Pan throws a sack on Zelena.]

[Hades rips up the contract on Gold and Belle's unborn child.]

Hades:
There. Now give her back.

Mr. Gold:
Oh, you can have her back.

Peter Pan:
But we didn't say anything about her heart, did we? You see, my body is ready to walk the earth again. Except for one thing: A living heart. So, if you don't mind. [Pulls back his hand]

Zelena:
My heart has got a protection spell on it.

Peter Pan:
You may be good at magic, but we're better.

[Pan starts to rip out Zelena's heart, but is magically blasted back by Emma, who has appeared in the diner.]

Emma Swan:
[Approaches Hades] You sure about that?

Hades:
I was beginning to think you couldn't get in.

Emma Swan:
Locks don't bother me much. He ripped up the contract like you wanted, so leave.

Peter Pan:
Since when does the Savior answer to the king of Death?

Emma Swan:
Since he's the one getting my family home.

Mr. Gold:
You picked the wrong team to back, Ms. Swan. [Points at Hades] You won't get what you want from him.

Emma Swan:
Really? Because you just did, which is making me wonder why you're still here.

Mr. Gold:
Yeah, I suppose you have a point.

[Gold teleports away. Emma, Zelena, Pan, and Hades watch on.]

Peter Pan:
[Seeing that his son has teleported away, shocked] Rumple.

Zelena:
Looks like your little boy only came for what he wanted.

Emma Swan:
And I don't think you're gonna be that lucky.

[Pan lets go of Zelena and teleports away. Emma, Zelena, and Hades watch on.]

[Gold goes into the back room where Belle is sleeping in a bed. He approaches her and tries to kiss her to wake her up, but the kiss fails. Gold hears a noise in the main part of the shop. He steps into the main part of the shop and sees that Pan has appeared in the pawn shop.]

Peter Pan:
She may not accept you for who you are, but I will, despite your rude abandonment of me earlier.

Mr. Gold:
Touching, Papa. Yes, abandonment hurts, doesn't it? But– with the contract gone, I only care about one thing: Getting Belle home so her father can wake her.

Peter Pan:
I'd love to help you make the journey– but that's going to be quite difficult since I didn't get the heart you promised me.

Mr. Gold:
Oh, there's the man I remember. Always thinking about what's in it for himself.

Peter Pan:
There's something in it for you, too: [Holds up Pandora's Box] Pandora's Box. [Steps towards his son] You can keep her safe in here in exchange for a heart. Otherwise, you both might lose out and miss that portal home. [Turns to the window] Opening soon– [Turns to Gold] –but only till sunset. So, do we have a deal? Tick, tock.

[Gold looks at Pandora's Box, then looks at his father.]

Henry:
What about Operation Firebird? We can't leave the Underworld without helping the people trapped here.

Regina:
They were trapped here because of Hades, who, fortunately for them, will no longer be a resident.

[Robin goes behind a couple of bookshelves to try and compose himself. He hears a noise.]

Robin Hood:
Who's there?

[Robin turns around and finds Gold standing in front of him.]

Mr. Gold:
It's just me, Dearie. Don't worry. You'll remember none of this.

[Gold rips out Robin's heart.]

[Gold, holding a heart-sized pouch containing a heart, opens the door of the pawn shop and enters the pawn shop where Pan is waiting.]

Peter Pan:
Where have you been? We're running out of time.

Mr. Gold:
[Closes the door of the pawn shop] Still can't bring yourself to trust little Rumple, can you, Papa? [Walks over to a table and puts down the pouch on it]

Peter Pan:
You always were a touchy boy.

[The portal at the cemetery starts rumbling.]

Peter Pan:
I take it that means it's not going to be open much longer.

[Gold opens the pouch and looks at the heart inside.]

Peter Pan:
Shall we?

Mr. Gold:
Not quite yet. Timing is everything. [Turns to his father] Have patience, Papa.

[The portal at the cemetery continues rumbling. Pan becomes terrified.]

[Pan looks out the window.]

Peter Pan:
It's nearly time. [Turns around and walks towards his son] We should go. We don't want to miss our ticket home.

Mr. Gold:
[Takes out the heart, then approaches his father] Now– are you ready?

Peter Pan:
Yes. [Places his hand on Gold's arm] Thank you, son.

Mr. Gold:
Pleasure's all mine, Papa.

[Gold forces the heart into Pan's chest.]

Peter Pan:
[Feels something inside his chest] Wait, something– [Leans onto his son for support] Wait, something's wrong.

Mr. Gold:
Does it feel different than you remembered?

Peter Pan:
[Coughs] What's happening? What did you do?

Mr. Gold:
That wasn't really Robin Hood's heart I put inside you. I knew you or your shadow could be watching. Whilst you were otherwise distracted, I returned Robin's heart to him.

Peter Pan:
What did you put in me?

Mr. Gold:
A wineskin I glamoured, filled with water– from the River of Souls.

Peter Pan:
[Horrified] No. Why?

Mr. Gold:
Villains don't get happy endings, Papa. And I'm here to make sure you never get yours.

[Gold shoves his father, sending him to the floor. Pan dissolves into green smoke as Gold watches on.]

Mr. Gold:
Goodbye, Papa– for good this time.

[Mr. Gold goes into Regina's office and finds Hades' ashes on the floor.]

Mr. Gold:
You should have taken my deal.

[Mr. Gold digs through Hades' ashes and pulls out the Olympian Crystal.]

Mr. Gold:
Like I told you– this is my kingdom.

[Henry opens the doors to find Mr. Gold at the doorway.]

Mr. Gold:
Hello, Henry.

Henry:
Violet, get behind me. You're not getting this, not without a fight.

Mr. Gold:
Too bad you're gonna lose.

[Mr. Gold magically renders Henry and Violet unconscious and takes the Olympian Crystal from Henry.]

Mr. Hyde:
You know, I've been looking for a place like this for quite some time; a land where all the world's lost and forgotten stories can play themselves out. And now that I've brought them here, that is exactly what they're going to do.
