*SCENE: Storybrooke. Present day. Swan House. Emma and Hook enter the house with Hope Jones.*

**Emma:** Feeling better?
**Hope:** Yeah. I guess.
**Hook:** You guess? Do you feel better than earlier or not.
**Hope:** I mean, I kinda do. But I still feel weird.
**Emma:** I'm sure it'll pass. It's probably just because you've been having so many in the past month.
**Hook:** I'm sure it'll pass.
**Hope:** Yeah, good night, mom. Good night, dad.
**Emma and Hook:** *(hugging Hope)* Good night.
*(Hope walks up the stairs)* **Emma:** Do you really think it'll pass?
**Hook:** Honestly. I don't know.

*SCENE: Storybrooke. Present day. Mills Apartment. Henry and Ella sit on their couch, watching television. A knock at the door gets Henry up to answer it. It is Regina.*

**Henry:** Hey mom.
**Regina:** Hey, Henry. Listen, I kinda need your help.
**Henry:** If it's interrogating another person about your belongings, I'll leave that up to you.
**Regina:** No, it's not. But it is about my belongings. I was talking to Zelena about it, and she told me about rumors stirring up saying there's a cult worshiping me.
**Henry:** So, some Regina fanatics?
**Regina:** That's the thing. They're Evil Queen worshipers. According to Zelena, they're planning on turning back time to prevent the curse from being broken.
**Henry:** They really want us stuck in a time loop for more than we already were? How would they even do that.
**Regina:** Well if they manage to turn back time, they would kill Emma before she ever got to Storybrooke.
**Henry:** Do you think they would be able to do that with what they stole from you.
**Regina:** Well, I'm planning on finding them. I was wanting your help.
**Henry:** Yeah, of course.
**Ella:** I'll go too.
**Regina:** Ella, nothing against you, but we should probably keep this a small deal.
**Ella:** Oh yeah, that's fine. You know what, I think I'll go visit with Emma and Hook.
**Henry:** Keep them from being too boring.
**Ella:** *(to Henry)* I'll see you later.
**Henry:** See ya.

*SCENE: Storybrooke. Present day. Mr. Gold Pawnbroker & Antiquities Dealer. Gideon talks with Peter.*

**Gideon:** Yeah, a summer wedding would be great. June would be three months from now.
**Peter:** Three months?
**Gideon:** Too long or too short?
**Peter:** Too short. How about October, when the leaves are falling.
**Gideon:** Seven months? We'll be sitting around doing nothing through the whole summer.
**Peter:** Fine, how about August, right in the middle of June and October.
**Gideon:** Sounds good to me.
*(The bell rings and Baba Yaga enters)* **Baba Yaga:** Hello, I'm not interrupting am I?
**Gideon:** No, you're fine.
**Baba Yaga:** I'm Jane. Nice to meet you.

*SCENE: New Enchanted Forest. Road. Past. Peter walks along the road. He sees Regina, Henry, Ella, and Nook walk alongside the road.*

**Peter:** I can't believe I'm actually seeing you guys in person right now.
**Henry:** There's nothing to be shocked about. I'm Henry.
**Regina:** I'm-
**Peter:** Regina. *(He points at Ella.)* Cinderella.
**Ella:** Ella's fine.
**Peter:** *(he points at Nook.)* And Nook.
**Hook:** You can call me Killian. Or Hook.
**Peter:** Well I guess you guys probably have royal business to attend to.
**Ella:** No, just a five-year-old daughter to get back to.
**Peter:** Well I'll see you guys later. Hopefully.
**Henry:** Bye.
**Peter:** Yeah.

*SCENE: Storybrooke. Swan House. Present day. Emma and Hook sit at a table when there is a knock at the door. Hook gets up to answer it and it is Ella. She comes inside.*

**Hook:** Hey, Ella. What'd you need?
**Ella:** Well, Regina needed Henry for some special mission, but it was a two-person job, so I thought I'd escape boredom and come here.
**Hook:** Yeah, totally. Make yourself at home.
**Ella:** Thanks.
*(Hope walks down the stairs)* **Emma:** Hey, honey. *(Hope ignores her and begins writing on the wall.)*
**Hook:** Hope. Hope? She's carving symbols into the wall.
**Emma:** *(She jumps up and goes over with Hook and Ella to see.)* What are you doing?
**Ella:** She's not responding.
**Hook:** Why?
**Emma:** Do you think this has something to do with her seizures.
**Hook:** I'd say probably.
**Ella:** Should we get her to Dr. Whale?
**Emma:** She won't move.
**Hook:** Plus, we just saw him earlier today.

*SCENE: Storybrooke. Library. Present day. Regina and Henry enter the library.*

**Henry:** You really think they'd be in the library.
**Regina:** Well we've searched every hidden spot in Storybrooke, so this is my last resort.
**Henry:** Wait a second. What if they're in the mines?
**Regina:** That's a great idea.

*SCENE: Storybrooke. Mines. Present day. Regina and Henry exit the mine shaft and into the mines.*

**Regina:** Well, I don't sense any magic.
**Henry:** And more importantly I don't hear any satanic rituals.
**Regina:** Yeah that too.
**Henry:** I don't think they're down here.
**Regina:** Well, I don't know anywhere else.
**Henry:** Well, to remind you, it was just a rumor.
**Regina:** It's a long shot, but why don't we check the clocktower since we're already here.
**Henry:** Why not.

*SCENE: Storybrooke. Mr. Gold's Shop. Present day. Gideon and Peter help out "Jane".*

**Gideon:** So are you looking for anything in particular?
**Jane:** Yes, a wooden box. It should have a heart carved onto the top.
**Gideon:** Why don't I go check the back, while Peter helps you try to find it out here. *(Gideon leaves.)*
**Peter:** I'm Peter.
**Jane:** Hi, Peter. Is he your brother?
**Peter:** Fiancee.
**Jane:** Oh, that's nice. Have you set a date yet?
**Peter:** Probably August.
**Jane:** Ooh, a summer wedding. That'll be very good for the weather.
**Peter:** Exactly.
*(Gideon returns.)* **Gideon:** Found it.
**Jane:** Perfect. Thank you. How much will that be?
**Gideon:** If it belonged to you in another realm, no charge.
**Jane:** Oh that's so nice.
**Gideon:** No problem. *(Jane leaves.)*
**Peter:** What was in the box.
**Gideon:** Literally nothing. That's what's suspicious to me.
**Peter:** Weird, what was the price tag.
**Gideon:** Didn't have one.
**Peter:** Was it on the list?
**Gideon:** Why don't we go check?
**Peter:** Sure.

*SCENE: United Realms. New Enchanted Forest. Road. Past. The smoke clears, revealing Peter on the ground. Waking up, he stands up and is met by a young man, Will.*

**Peter:** Will!
**Will:** Peter, you're alive!
**Peter:** Where are we?
**Will:** It looks like the New Enchanted Forest. We're home again.
**Peter:** Once the curse was broken in Seattle, I tried finding you all over the place.
**Will:** That doesn't matter anymore. All that matters is that we're back together again.
**Peter:** I love you.
**Will:** I love you too.
*(Sabine and Drew walk up.)* **Sabine:** We're grouping together in the castle court to discuss what happened, spread the word if you can.
**Peter:** Of course.
**Will:** Hopefully our cottage came back.
**Peter:** Why don't we look after the meeting.
**Will:** I know exactly where it should be.

*SCENE: Storybrooke. Mr. Gold's Shop. Present day. Gideon and Peter search the back for the list of all recorded items.*

**Peter:** Found it.
**Gideon:** Okay, it'll probably be under "Heart-Shaped Box" or Empty Box.
**Peter:** I'll probably see a name that somewhat describes it.
**Gideon:** I just find it odd there's no price tag on it or any sort of mark.
**Peter:** Unless your father has some weird name for it, it's not on here.
**Gideon:** What? Why would it not be on here.
**Peter:** Maybe your father didn't intend to sell it.
**Gideon:** But why? It's empty. And Jane didn't seem evil.
**Peter:** The best villains always have the best covers.

*SCENE: Storybrooke. Clocktower. Present day. Regina and Henry are on the elevator.*

**Regina:** I used magic to silence the elevator shaft and to make us invisible.
**Henry:** Great. *(The doors open, revealing the clocktower, and Regina and Henry walk out.)*
**Henry:** They're here.
**Regina:** *(quieter)* I only covered our visibility not our noise.
**Henry:** *(quiet)* Oh. They're here.
**Regina:** *(quiet)* I can see that.

*SCENE: Storybrooke. Swan House. Present day. Hope writes the symbols on the wall, while Emma, Hook, and Ella watch her.*

**Ella:** Has she done this before?
**Emma:** No. It's always just been the seizures.
**Hook:** This is new. *(Hope collapses.)* Hope!
**Emma:** Are you okay?
**Hope:** What happened? Why am I here? Did I fall down the stairs.
**Hook:** No, you came down the stairs and started writing these random symbols on the wall.
**Emma:** You don't even remember?
**Hope:** No, I just remember falling asleep and then being down here.

*SCENE: Storybrooke. Swan House. Hope's Room. Twenty Minutes Ago. Hope climbs into bed. She falls asleep when she has a dream of destruction and chaos throughout the Land Without Magic. At the center of the destruction is Hope and Baba Yaga.*

**Baba Yaga:** Good job, child.
**Hope:** Thank you.

*SCENE: Storybrooke. Swan House. Present day. Hope is in Hook and Emma's arms, as Ella watches.*

**Emma:** You didn't have any dreams.
**Hope:** *(hesitating)* Uh, no.
**Hook:** If there's anything you need to tell us, please do.
**Hope:** There's nothing else.
**Ella:** I'm gonna call Henry.

*SCENE: Storybrooke. Clocktower. Present day. Henry and Regina watch the group of cult members. Their leader, Adam, speaks.*

**Adam:** We are here today to celebrate the life of the Evil Queen. Not Regina Mills. Or Roni. Or the Good Queen. The true ruler of the Enchanted Forest.
**Member:** What exactly is our end game?
**Adam:** Right, you're new. We're trying to go back in time to just before the "Savior" Emma Swan is visited by her son, Henry. We're going to kill her so she never returns to Storybrooke, meaning the curse will never be broken.
**Henry:** *(quiet)* They can't actually do that can they?
**Regina:** *(quiet)* I suppose they can.
**Member:** But then, half of us wouldn't be born and the other half would be stuck in a time loop.
**Adam:** But wouldn't that be worth it to ensure Regina is never taken down?
**Member:** No it's not. *(Four of the cultists leave, leaving only fourteen left.)*
**Adam:** Well, there's always traitors.
*(Henry's phone goes off. He silences it and he and Regina race to the elevator. However, the four cultists that left have already taken it, forcing them to wait.)*
**Adam:** Who was that?
**Member:** It came from over there.
*(Adam walks over to the elevator shaft.)* **Adam:** Must've been one of the traitors.
*(Henry silently sighs in relief as the elevator pops back up and he and Regina enter.)*

*SCENE: Storybrooke. Mr. Gold's Shop. Present day. Gideon and Peter wait in the front, for another customer. Soon, Jane walks in again.*

**Gideon:** Hi, again.
**Jane:** Hi, can I speak to you in private? Thank you.
**Gideon:** Oh, sure. Peter wait here. *(Gideon and Jane enter the back room.)* What'd you need?
**Jane:** I need to confess. My name isn't really Jane.
**Gideon:** Really? *(He grabs a candlestick behind his back in defense.)*
**Jane:** I am Baba Yaga. And I need your help.
**Gideon:** With what?
**Jane:** A plot to cleanse the Earth.
**Gideon:** Will that involve death?
**Baba Yaga:** Anytime the realms need new life, we must purge the ones who aren't needed in our new worlds. *(Gideon grabs the candlestick and tries to hit Baba Yaga, who deflects it using magic and holds Gideon in place.)* Well I was hoping I wouldn't have to do this the hard way. *(She teleports herself and Gideon out of the shop. Peter enters the back and finds them both gone and the candlestick on the ground.)*
