[SCENE_BREAK] [ Storybrooke ] [SCENE_BREAK] (Mary Margaret is sleeping.) Mary Margaret: Mm. David? David? (She hears Neal crying.) Mary Margaret: Neal? Hey. Ohh. Hi, buddy. I gotcha. Hey. Maleficent: What a lovely child. Mary Margaret: Stay the hell away from my son. Cruella: We're not the ones you should fear. Ursula: Something far worse than us looms over his head. Maleficent: The truth of what you did to me. (Maleficent takes Neal.) Mary Margaret: Please don't hurt my family. Maleficent: When I'm finished, you won't have a family left to hurt.

I went to check on Neal and those two surrounding him... Only... Maleficent was there, too. David: Of course she was. Mary Margaret: David, she said she would make us pay for what we did.

SUMMARY:
Regina goes undercover to learn of the Queens' plan to reverse the stories that was ever written about the heroes, with Emma keeping tabs on Regina and the Queens. When Maleficent reveals that they're after Pinocchio and wants Regina to kidnap him, the plans take a different turn after Regina succeeds. At the same time, Mr. Gold, masquerading as Hook, informs Belle that the Queens are after the dagger and agree to hide it, only to have Belle end up being fooled by Gold, who needed the dagger to transform Pinocchio back into August Booth, surprising Regina, who has now "joined" the Queens after being accepted by them. Back in the Enchanted Forest, Regina decides to help Maleficent regain her spirits, in the hours before casting the sleeping curse on Aurora, prior to her wedding to Prince Phillip.
