Glad you enjoyed the Rumple and Regina flashback! I gotta say that I don't enjoy FTL Rumple as much anymore :O His make-up is /off/, and the same goes for the way Bobby plays him. It seems so forced now, or as if he's getting bored of it. Don't know. Probably just me. But I'm just enjoying him as Gold (or Goldstiltskin, more like it now :P) now, much more, and it used to be the other way around.
I hope you can get back to watch it soon, dear! Although the next ep - a Rumple centric! - ought to be much more interesting :)

Haha that's just awesome that your mother is screaming it, way like a modern day fangirl! :P How did she react to JE?!
