Something to think about

"Sometimes you have to lie to protect the people you love"


Hello RR Buddies, I know everyone is upset at the impending doom full of blood and gore and possible death of a loved character in this show. And all the spoilers, news and off-screen bytes aren't helping one bit with everything pointing in that direction everyone seems to be dreading! Talk about bombarding the audience with what you want them to believe will happen...😳

But, yes, a big BUT - I've decided to stay in my bubble and until something like that is explicitly shown, will not buy into it, no matter what. So, I was watching one of the off-screen segments (pretty hard to avoid one these days) where Shantanu was in pursuit of a terrorized Paro who was shown running around trying to escape. And as a desperate attempt to save her baby's life, she places him inside her wardrobe. I do not know what happens after that because I did not watch any off-screen segments beyond that point.

And that particular act stood out to me and got me thinking about two things, why a baby and why show her protecting her newborn in that manner? Surely there has to be a reason! They could have easily shown a leap without a baby, so hastily conceived that it's been subject to much ridicule the past week...! So why then was a baby so necessary for this particular leap?

The parallels between what Paro does to save her child and what Snow did to protect her child, family and the kingdom from getting destroyed at the hands of the Evil queen is hard to ignore. Now...now, I understand there are no witches, or magic or even an Enchanted Forest here but hear me out for a second. Not going to explicitly state where I think we may be headed to but here's something...just give it a thought will you?

-----------------------------------------------------------

In the show Once Upon a Time, the Evil Queen aka Regina unleashes a powerful curse that threatens to destroy the happiness of everyone in the Enchanted Forest by robbing them of their precious memories.

The only hope of surviving this curse lies with Snow and Charming's baby girl, the savior or Emma as she comes to be called later on. So in order to save the baby from getting cursed, Snow and Charming take the help of Geppetto and place her inside the magic wardrobe which eventually transports her to another world. And because of this sacrifice, their hopes of breaking the evil curse remain intact.

Years pass, they are now living in Storybrooke, Maine far away from the Enchanted Forest with no recollection of their past and as strangers within the same town.

Only the Savior can break the curse and reunite her parents.

Will true love prevail over evil?

Does that sound familiar?

Hey don't be upset! Don't let this show affect you so much, it's not worth it.

Cheer up, will you. Look at the brighter side however tiny or small and hold on to that thread of hope. Here's a hug 🤗

I watched the first two seasons of Once Upon A Time! It was a pretty good show and if the RR CVs are going to show something like what you described then it'll be ok...don't know if the CVs are that creative but will hold onto some hope and will hope for the best until proven otherwise.

I do think it's very interesting that the baby seems to be very important to the story. Why make Paro pregnant and a mother at all? Ok if the CVs wanted to make Paro's death very tragic, they could have had Shantanu just kill her WHILE she was pregnant. But no. Something will happen to Paro AFTER her baby is born.The baby needs to live, for whatever reason. I only hope it's because it will reunite it's parents and not because the baby (a child 5 years later) will feel some unexplainable cliche attachment and connection to Paro's look alike which will lead to Rudra accepting her. 🤔

Here's to hoping for the best for the time being at least!
