TEXT: [PREVIOUSLY_ON] Soon I will have what I want. A family that loves me. Sometimes, ordinary objects can come to possess their own special kind of magic. I'm ready to make that deal. I want my ribbons back. I'm no longer convinced you have anything I want. You want what all villains want. Everything. The Apprentice: Every dark one tries. Every one fails. You will never collect enough power to do what you want. Oh, I will. But, alas, you won't be there to see it. If you truly want to save Marian... You're gonna have to forget about me. You were planning to use this to strip away her magic. No, that's not why I had it. The family that you think you have... They may love you... Keep your distance. I don't want to hurt anyone. But they also fear you. Let me go! Emma! Did you find her? David: No. We looked everywhere. She doesn't want to be found. [SCENE_BREAK] [ Arendelle - Past ] [SCENE_BREAK] (The Snow Queen rides to a cave. She hides the hat under a rock.) [SCENE_BREAK] [ Enchanted Forest - Past ] [SCENE_BREAK] (The Snow Queen visits the apprentice.) The Apprentice: I know who you are. And I can be of no help to you. The Snow Queen: No, of course not. You're an errand boy long past his prime. I wish to speak to the one you work for. The Apprentice: There are many who desire an audience with the sorcerer, but he speaks only through his apprentice. The Snow Queen: Then tell him, apprentice, I wish to make a deal. The Apprentice: The sorcerer does not make petty deals, especially with those who have succumbed to the darkness... Like you. The Snow Queen: I think in this case, he might make a small exception. We'll see. I have his hat. The Apprentice: You have no idea the forces you are dealing with. (He treats the Snow Queen with his sword.) The Snow Queen: Hmm. The Apprentice: Tell me where it

(December 2019) (Learn how and when to remove this template message) As Emma's powers become uncontrollable, she seeks help from Gold. Regina gives Mary and David a locator potion but they quickly drop their plan to stop Emma, believing it might be better if Emma became "normal." Elsa steals the locator potion to find Emma on her own. When the Snow Queen threatens Gold not to hurt Emma, he uses magical dust made from the urn's remnants to temporarily trap the Snow Queen within her palace. In Arendelle's past, Ingrid tries to convince Elsa that Anna was planning to remove her magic, but fails. Elsa and Anna manage to obtain the urn, which they plan to use on Ingrid. Elsa learns why their parents left for the Enchanted Forest, and makes peace with it, and she sends Anna back into the prison to set up their trap for Ingrid. Regina convinces Mary and David that Emma's powers made her special, so they team up to find Emma. Robin Hood decides to help Regina find the author of the fairytale book and discovers a missing page that could provide a clue. Hook reaches the mansion first but Gold binds him before trying to convince Emma to step through the door where his magical hat is set up. While Gold taunts Hook, Elsa breaks in through the back door and convinces Emma to accept herself, allowing Emma to control her powers. Gold takes Hook's heart to sever himself from the Dagger, turning Hook into his "puppet" in the process. The Snow Queen places ribbons on Elsa and Emma to harness their power. The Snow Queen uses her newly-amplified magic to shatter her mirror, casting the Spell of Shattered Sight over Storybrooke. In Arendelle's past, Ingrid uncovers the sisters' plot, and plans to turn Elsa against Anna, only for a cursed Anna to place Elsa in the urn. Ingrid freezes Anna, Kristoff, and all of Arendelle. Rumplestiltskin comes to take Anna's necklace and the urn in exchange for the Sorcerer's hat. However, Ingrid turns over the box to the Apprentice instead in exchange for her happy ending, leading her to 1982 Boston, prior to baby Emma's arrival.
