Summary

Three weeks back in Camelot, Emma used the darkness one last time before giving it up completely in order to save her family by being brave enough to knock down all those walls she's hiding behind. On the other hand, back in Storybrooke at present, Hook went to find out what the Dark Swan is atoning for by giving her a reason to find him so he could finally learn the truth, no matter how awful. Join us on our in-depth discussion of "Birth."

You're listening to Once, episode 220, birth.

0:08.9

Music Welcome back to another episode of Once, the unofficial podcast for ABC's TV show Once Upon a Time.

0:36.6

I'm Daniel J. Lewis. I'm Jeremy Loughlin.

0:38.7

And we've rewatched this episode, Birth, and we will, for this episode of the podcast,

0:43.2

only be talking about this episode, birth. In the initial reactions, we said we might just

0:47.7

altogether skip talking about the Bear King, but there is some great stuff to talk about.

Any act is hard following birth, except for Zelina, who apparently is great at doing anything

1:19.2

after birth.

about the episode of Once Upon a Time, The Bear King, and that will release a couple days after

1:34.9

this one, or it might be available by the time that you're listening to this right now.

1:38.8

So we will have this separate discussion there, but there won't be any time for you to send your feedback in for

1:45.4

that episode because we'll be recording it almost right after we finish recording this episode.

1:50.2

With that as clear as could be, I want to give props to Alina Harris, who sent in this feedback

1:56.9

several weeks ago. This was on the episode Dream Catchatcher. Alina said, what if Emma isn't
