insists that she didn’t kill Kathryn but the mayor points out the evidence against her and says
that Mary Margaret will be leaving Storybrooke once and for all. Mary Margaret wonders why
Regina hates her so much.
Regina rides into the countryside and meets Daniel. She admits that she has to be back in
an hour for tea time, but Daniel is impatient for more time and honesty. Regina admits that her
mother wouldn’t understand, and wants people to move up in the world.
Daniel insists that Regina tell Cora the truth, saying that love is the true magic, but Regina
warns that with her magic, her mother can do anything to them. A girl rides by, her horse out
of control, and Regina rides off after her. She manages to pull the girl off of the horse and she
thanks Regina for saving her life. When she vows never to ride again, Regina tells her that one
must face their fears. They introduce themselves and the girl says that her name is Snow White.
Gold suggests that Mary Margaret meet with the DA for a pre-trial interview, and believes
that they can present her reputation as a sweet schoolteacher. If she cooperates with the DA, it
will engender trust with the jury. Sydney comes in with flowers and Emma goes to talk to him.
He admits that he’s checked Regina’s phone records and her purchases to see if she’s bought
a hunting knife, but hasn’t found anything. When Emma comes back, Mary Margaret says that
she’ll talk to the DA to prove that she has nothing to hide.
The DA, Albert Spencer (King George in the fairytale world), comes in with Regina and says
that it’s time to begin.
In the interrogation room, Regina and Emma watch as Spencer goes over how Kathryn confronts
Mary Margaret at the school and slapped her. Mary Margaret says that she felt regret, not
pain, but Spencer doesn’t believe her. He probes further, asking if she acted on the anger and
wanted Kathryn gone. Gold interrupts to try to stop the interview, but Spencer continues, asking
if Mary Margaret wanted Kathryn gone. Mary Margaret finally snaps and admits that she wanted
David’s wife gone, as Regina smiles in triumph.
Regina is at the castle trying riding clothes when Cora comes in and transforms her clothing
into an ornate dress. She explains that King Leopold is there to thank her for saving Snow...
his daughter. Leopold enters and bows to Regina for helping Snow, and Cora prompts Regina to
speak up. The king admits that Snow lost her mother years ago and he has spent his time since
trying to find a new queen, someone who is interested in his daughter. He then kneels before
Regina and offers her an engagement ring. Cora speaks up, saying that her daughter accepts.
Afterward, Regina goes to the stables and asks Daniel to marry her. She explains that Cora
will never understand, and that Leopold has proposed to her. The only thing left for Regina is for
the two of them to marry and run off. Daniel warns her that she is dooming herself to life with a
stable boy, but Regina assures him that being queen means nothing to her and she cares about
being with him. He accepts and says that they have to do it properly, and puts an engagement
ring on her finger. As they kiss, Snow comes in to get back on the horse and sees them together.
Crying, she runs off and Regina goes after her.
Regina finally catches up to the girl, who wonders why Regina is kissing another man when
she’s intended to be her mother. After a moment, Regina explains that no matter what Leopold’s
qualities are, she doesn’t love him, and that true love is a magic that brings happiness. Snow
understands and wants to tell her father, but Regina warns her that some people like her mother
won’t understand.
She asks Snow to keep her secret and makes her promise not to tell anyone, particularly
Cora. Snow agrees to do it.
Emma is at the docks reading Henry’s storybook when August comes by and asks what she’s
doing. She admits that she isn’t so sure about her instincts and what they tell her about Mary
Margaret’s innocence. August suggests that she try shifting her perspective, noting that things
have changed since she first started investigating a missing-person report. Emma decides to go
to the scene of the crime and August offers to drive her there. They take a motorcycle out to the
toll bridge and examine the spot where Ruby found the box. As August goes down to the shore,
he feels a sudden leg pain but dismisses it as nothing. Emma finds a shard from a shovel in
the ground near the box, and she figures that if they can find the shovel with the missing piece,
they can prove Mary Margaret’s innocence. August figures that she knows whose shovel it is and
Emma smiles in satisfaction.
That night, Regina checks in on Henry, who is apparently asleep. Once she leaves to take
a shower, he gets out his radio and tells Emma that his mother is out of the way. Emma and
