** By extension, the episode also shows that Regina and Graham's relationship in Storybrooke has been rape-via-mind-control, as he was an unwilling participant in the Enchanted Forest and presumably would still have been unwilling in the "real world" if it weren't for the Dark Curse altering his memories to include hooking up with Regina voluntarily.

* RewatchBonus: [[invoked]] It's certainly interesting seeing this again after watching "Fruit of the Poisonous Tree." This episode's Enchanted Forest flashbacks begin with Regina comforting Snow White by her father's coffin, meaning he must just have died--but that episode reveals it was the Genie/Magic Mirror who did the deed for Regina. For someone who ''just'' committed murder, learned his lover had used and manipulated him, and then got trapped in a mirror, he seems rather blase about Regina's feigned bereavement and desire to get revenge on her stepdaughter. Perhaps she had him look into the past, to see what Snow had done, so as to get him fully on her side?
** It's also revealing watching this after both "The Stable Boy" and "We Are Both".
