Storybrooke, Toll Bridge, Night: Mary Margaret twirls the ring around her finger. David runs up, out of breath. "You came!" Mary notes that he sounds surprised, and maybe even almost disappointed. David tells her he remembers everything -- Kathryn. Mary's eyes fill with tears. "And you love her?" David: "I don't know, but I know I did. I remember how I felt, and I think I have to honor that." Mary: "And everything you said to me?" David says it's true. "I do have feelings for you -- intense feelings for you -- feelings I don't quite understand." Mary asks if he's going back to Kathryn. David says it's the right thing to do. Mary struggles to hold back the tears, but they choke her voice, even as they don't fall down her cheeks. "The right thing to do -- was not to lead me on." David: "I know." Mary: "So, you've made your choice." He reaches out for her as he says he's sorry. Mary back away and says, "That's okay. I guess it wasn't meant to be."
Storybrooke Streets, Night: Emma is patrolling in the cruiser, when she spies someone escaping out of a second floor window at the Mayor's house. She pulls over, hopes out of the car and greets the intruder at the end of the driveway. In the stomach. With her billy club. He falls to the ground with a groan. It's Sheriff Graham! Okay, we're not surprised, but Emma sure is. She says, "This is volunteering?" Graham tries to cover. "Plans... changed. Regina needed me to..." Emma says, "Sleep with her?" Graham says, "No." When she asks why he was sneaking out the window, Graham seems to immediately forget that he just lied and answers, "Because.. .she didn't want Henry to know." Emma: "You do this with Henry in the house?" Graham: "He's sleeping. He doesn't know." Emma: "Oh my God. I wish I was Henry right now." Me too, Emma. She adds, "This is disgusting." Yep, except for how they're both hot and all. She tosses Graham the cruiser keys and tells her to finish her shift as she's done working nights.
David arrives home at the Nolan's house and rings the bell. He tells Kathryn he remembers hating the windmill. She wants to know what else he remembers. He knows they weren't in a good place when he left and that while he wanted to work things out, he needed some time. He apologizes and says he knows they have work to do. "Let's see what happens." When Kathryn says she'd like that, he grabs her hand.
Enchanted Forest: Charming holds out his hand for Princess Abigail. She lays her hand in his palm and they walk towards Midas and Widmore. Midas blathers about united kingdoms. Midas tells the betrothed couple to go to his kingdom and their new home. Abigail tells Midas she trusts his judgment. Widmore pulls Charming aside, tells him he's glad he made the right decision and calls him son. Charming hesitates a little, but then shakes Widmore's outstretched hand, and calls him father. Um, hello? I am expecting more hostility here, since he threatened to kill your mother, Charming!
