Child of the Moon/Quotes

## Quotes

**Prince Charming**: What are you doing here?

**King George**: You may have taken care of me in the old world, but in this one, we get another go at each other.

**Prince Charming**: Whenever you're ready.

**King George**: It's a big moment for you, isn't it? On your way to getting your family back.

**Prince Charming**: Ah, yeah, it must be hard for you. You know, watching good win.

**King George**: Good? So sure of yourself. But I know the truth. You're still just a shepherd pretending to be a prince. You weren't fit to run the kingdom, and you sure as hell aren't fit to run this town.

**Prince Charming**: I think the people of Storybrooke might disagree with you.

**King George**: Today. But I'm going to see to it that they see things my way. That they see you for who you really are. By the time I'm done with you, you'll wish you'd killed me when you had the chance.

**Prince Charming**: The people of this town know who I really am. And they've seen me defeat you before. So, if you want to try and take me down, they'll see it again.

**Red Riding Hood**: Tonight's the first full moon since the curse broke. It's the first night of Wolfstime.

**Prince Charming**: I thought you figured out how to control the wolf in you ages ago?

**Red Riding Hood**: Yeah, but thanks to the curse, I haven't turned in twenty-eight years. I might be rusty. I can't let what happened last time – what happened to Peter – happen to anyone else.

**Prince Charming**: What about your red hood? That could keep you from turning.

**Red Riding Hood**: If I had it. I've looked everywhere. I even went to Gold. It's not in town. I don't think it came over with the curse.

**Quinn**: You think I don't know a wolf when I see one?

**Red Riding Hood**: How do you know what I am?

**Quinn**: Because I know how to recognize a child of the moon.

**Red Riding Hood**: You... You're one, too?

**Quinn**: Name's Quinn. I picked up on your scent last night. You never had anyone talk to you about this, did you? Teach you about what you are?

**Red Riding Hood**: My parents were killed by hunters when I was a baby. I was raised by my Granny.

**Quinn**: But she kept the truth from you. (*about Enchanted Cloak*) Made you wear that. Still blacking out, right? Still losing control when you turn? Probably even hurt someone. I know how you feel. I've been there. It doesn't have to be this way.

**Red Riding Hood**: What do you mean?

**Quinn**: What if I told you there was a way to control it, so you never have to be afraid of what you might do again?

**Red Riding Hood**: Is that possible?

**Quinn**: Follow me.

**Rumplestiltskin**: (*to Henry*) When people fall under a Sleeping Curse, the soul travels to a Netherworld, where it resides until awoken. Now, this world is between life and death, and it's very real. However, even when the curse is broken, sometimes, in sleep, the victims find their way back to that world. Victims like you.

**Regina Mills**: This other world is tormenting my son every time he sleeps. I want you to give him something that will keep him from going there.

**Rumplestiltskin**: Well, I'm afraid that's not possible. I can, however, provide you with something that will allow him to control his actions whilst in that world. And once one controls something, one no longer need fear it.

**Henry Mills**: A necklace?

**Rumplestiltskin**: You wear this while you're sleeping. Once you control the journey, fear will stop. And then, you can come and go as you please.

**Regina Mills**: Everything comes at a price with you. What do you want for this?

**Rumplestiltskin**: For a house call? You couldn't afford it. But this is for Henry. This one's on me.

**Red Riding Hood**: (*meeting her mother*) Granny lied to me. That story about you being killed by hunters...

**Anita Lucas**: She's been lying to you ever since she stole you away from me, when you were just a baby.

**Red Riding Hood**: Why would she do that?

**Anita Lucas**: Because she didn't want you to find out the truth about who you really are. She believed the wolf is something to be ashamed of. I see things differently. Humans want us to believe we're the monsters. The moment you believe them, that's when you become one. You're not the first to learn the truth about yourself through tragedy. So many of us spent so much of our life suppressing the wolf. They have no idea how to control it. They just need help. Help embracing their true nature. The only way you will ever control the wolf, is by accepting it as a part of you.

**Red Riding Hood**: You can teach me to do that?

**Anita Lucas**: Indeed, I can.

**Red Riding Hood**: How?

**Anita Lucas**: (*about Enchanted Cloak*) You can start, by getting rid of that.

**Anita Lucas**: It'll be like nothing you've ever felt before; the pine needles underfoot, the air rushing over your fur, your brothers and sisters at your side. Your mind won't want to believe it. It will tell you a wolf is invading your body, trying to take over. And if you believe that, for even a moment, you'll black out, and lose control. Like you have every other night you've turned. But, if you give in to the wolf, you'll realize the truth. You *are* the wolf. And when you accept that, you will finally be in control. (*Red wakes*) How much do you remember?

**Red Riding Hood**: All of it.

**Anita Lucas**: You finally became the wolf.

**Red Riding Hood**: I don't have to be afraid anymore.

**Snow White**: You're not coming with me, are you?

**Red Riding Hood**: I don't have to be ashamed of who I am here. I found my home. I found my mother.

**Snow White**: But I thought -

**Red Riding Hood**: Granny lied. I'm sorry, Snow. I know you risked your life to come back here for me.

**Snow White**: No, I understand. I would do anything to be with my mother again.

**Red Riding Hood**: I know we planned on leaving the kingdom together -

**Snow White**: I'll be alright. You've taught me enough already. I'll manage. Bye, Red. Thank you.

**Red Riding Hood**: No, thank you.

**Anita Lucas**: (*Quinn is killed by Black Knights*) You brought the Queen's men into our den.

**Snow White**: You have to believe me. I had no idea they followed me.

**Red Riding Hood**: Mother, she didn't.

**Anita Lucas**: It doesn't matter. Wherever humans go, death follows. The only way to stop them, is to kill them first. Tie her up.

**Snow White**: No!

**Anita Lucas**: When the moon rises, we'll feast on a princess.

**Red Riding Hood**: What are you doing?

**Anita Lucas**: She'll pay for the life that we lost.

**Red Riding Hood**: Mother, you're not making any sense.

**Anita Lucas**: You already made your choice, Red. You're one of us now. Act like it. Kill her.

**Red Riding Hood**: No. I won't kill my friend.

**Anita Lucas**: Then I will.

**Red Riding Hood**: No. Mother, stop!

**Anita Lucas**: Sorry, my daughter. This is what it means to be a wolf. (*transforms into a wolf and approaches Snow*)

Snow White: Please... (*Red, in wolf form, attacks Anita*) Red!

**Red Riding Hood**: (*Anita is accidentally impaled by a spike and transforms back into human, as does Red*) I didn't mean to! I'm - I'm sorry, Mother.

**Anita Lucas**: You chose her.

**Red Riding Hood**: No. I chose me. I'm not a killer. (*Anita dies*)

**King George**: (*about to kill Red for being a werewolf*) There you are.

**Granny**: (*shoots King George's gun out of his hand with her crossbow*) The next one goes between your eyes!

**Prince Charming**: Ruby! (*to the townspeople*) Listen to me! Ruby didn't kill Billy. (*about King George*) *He* did. He stole her cloak, and killed Billy in cold blood to make it look like a wolf. All to get you to think I wasn't leading this town as I should. (*the townspeople move closer*) Hold up! Somebody already died because of what this man did. Let's not spill more blood. She won't hurt anyone. She's just scared. (*to Red, in wolf form*) Ruby? I know you're in there, so listen to me. It was Spencer, not you. Don't let him trick you into thinking you're a monster. Alright, alright, poor choice of words. Please, Ruby. I know you. I know the real you, and I know you can control the wolf. Ruby. Ruby? Ruby. It's me – David. (*Red sits and David puts the Enchanted Cloak over her*)

**Red Riding Hood**: You saved me.

**Prince Charming**: No. You saved yourself. I just reminded you of what you already knew.

**Prince Charming**: Where you going?

**Red Riding Hood**: I've still got a few hours of Wolfstime left. You helped me regain control. I want to do something I haven't done in a very long time.

**Prince Charming**: What's that?

**Red Riding Hood**: Run.

**Princess Aurora**: (*wakes from a nightmare*) Snow! Snow!

**Snow White**: I'm here. It's okay, it's okay. It was just another nightmare.

**Princess Aurora**: No, this time was different. There was a little boy. He put out the fire. He talked to me.

**Snow White**: A little boy?

**Emma Swan**: What'd he say?

**Princess Aurora**: He said... He said his name was Henry.
