The Jolly Roger takes flight. Charming turns to Emma. "You know when we first landed on this island, you said we'd all need to work together. [...] To be honest, I didn't think it was possible. A hero, villain, pirate -- that we could all be united, but we were, because of the most important piece of the puzzle. A leader." The fandom eagerly gobbles up these mere crumbs of a daddy-daughter moment. Emma is just glad they could work together to get Henry and the rest of the gang home. Mary Margaret turns from the Lost Boys (who aren't Henry) she's been feeding, and smiles at her husband and daughter. I feel a little warm, until I remember my fit of pique. We cut to...
Wendy. Our nightgowned girl looks out at the sea beneath. Tink approaches and says, "It's better than being in a cage, isn't it? [...] Soon, you'll see your brothers." Wendy admits she's been saving something for Tink. Tink takes the vial and recognizes its contents as Pixie Dust. Wendy explains it is inert. Tink says that since she lost her wings, she hasn't the magic to make it work. Wendy is sure the erstwhile fairy will figure it out. Grabbing Tink's shoulder she says, "I believe in you, Tink." Tink blinks. I wonder if the Pixie Dust will figure into Charming's cure.
Panry comes up on deck. Dadfire is the first to spot him and wonders if the lad shouldn't stay below deck. Panry says something about the fresh air being good for him. Neal schmoops about how Henry now has a dad -- forever. When Neal promises he'll never leave his little buddy, Panry nods and hugs Neal right back.
Tink approaches Regina and tells her she's glad she got back her son. "It seems the Evil Queen was able to love someone, after all." Yeah it is. Regina agrees and adds, "It seems you were right." Tink says she knew Reggie still had some good in her. Regina adds, "Apparently, you still have some magic in you." Tink looks down at the vial Wendy gave her. It briefly sparkles with green magic before fading out. Regina says, "Well, if I had to guess, I'd say for a moment there, you believed." Tink flashes a sweet smile at our Evil Queen while we cut to Felix. Before we go there, though, I have to say I am loving Rose McIver's Tinker Bell. I didn't at first. Well, I thought McIver did a fine job, but I'd expected Tink to be teenaged too. Now I find myself hoping Tink makes Regina her project, and that Regina will learn how to have a be a friend.
Panry grabs a plate of grub and brings it to Felix. Yes, these people had time to cook, but didn't have time to assign one frigging person who cares about him to guard Henry. Anyhow, when the Lost Boy is unreceptive, Panry says, "But I came to thank you." Felix says no matter what the other traitors do, "I'm on Pan's side. And Pan..." Panry finishes his thought: "...never fails."
Felix is confused so Panry says, "You heard me. Peter Pan never fails. He can't be stopped. Even when they think he's defeated -- whey they think they've won, he finds a way." Felix says, "So you think you're not safe?" Panry scoffs. "Oh no, I'm perfectly safe. During our struggle, my fate was sealed. The one who's in trouble is Henry." Felix is slow on the uptake. "But you're Henry." Panry's voice is low as he admits, "Not anymore." Felix: "You! You switched." Henry agains offers forth the plate of food. "Are you sure you're not hungry?" Grinning, Felix grabs it. "Thank you, Pan." Panry glances around, then says, "Now, let's play." Fade to black.
