TEXT: SCENE: Minneapolis. 1989. Movie Theater showing "The Sword in the Stone" animated Disney movie. [SCENE_BREAK] [A young Emma is escorted with her foster siblings into the theater.] Woman: Okay, come on. Everybody stick together. [Indistinct conversations] Arthur: Archimedes, look. Merlin, look, I'm a squire! Archimedes: Oh, uh, very nice, boy. Yes, indeed. A fine monkey suit for polishing boots. A stooge for that big lug Kay. It's what all the squires wear. And I thought you were going to amount to something. I thought you had a few brains. [Emma steals a candy bar from someone's pocket.] Attendant: Don't. Young Emma: What? Attendant: Don't. Young Emma: I'm sorry. Attendant: I wasn't talking about the candy bar, Emma. Young Emma: How do you know my name? Attendant: I know many things. And I'm here to tell you, don't do it. Young Emma: I don't understand. Attendant: When you do something that you're not supposed to do, even if you do it for the right reasons, bad things will happen, Emma. Bad things. [The theater screen shows an animated young Arthur pulling Excalibur out of the stone.] Attendant: One day, you will have the opportunity to remove Excalibur from its stone, but you must not. Leave the sword alone. Girl: Shh! [Emma turns back and the Attendant is gone.] [SCENE_BREAK] SCENE: Camelot. [SCENE_BREAK] [Arthur, Lancelot, and Percival race on horses through the forest to the shore.] King Arthur: Is this the place, Lancelot? Lancelot: Have faith, Arthur. Merlin's prophecy was quite clear. This is it. King Arthur: The prophecy isn't what I'm worried about. Someone beat us here. [They draw swords and approach the sword in the stone.] Kay: You're too late. King Arthur: Sir Kay, do not
SUMMARY:
The event of Emma being taken by the Darkness has the Storybrooke residents seeking a way to bring her back, and the only way to make it happen is to turn to an unlikely person: Zelena. However, the wicked witch has other plans in mind, only to be thwarted by Regina, who uses Zelena's magic to activate the Apprentice's wand, which creates a portal that brings everyone to the Enchanted Forest. They find a bewildered Emma, who is trying to track down Merlin, and along the way befriends Merida, while being guided by a dark apparition of Rumplestiltskin, who wants Emma to embrace the Darkness. After they meet up with King Arthur in their quest in Camelot, the residents return to Storybrooke six weeks later, with no memories of what happened in Camelot, while wearing completely different attires. And Emma is now a fully-fledged Dark One, who vows vengeance on her loved ones.
