What is happening in Storybrooke's present day that sets the scene for this flashback?
Josh Dallas: The [snow] monster is now gone, and now, Mary Margaret (Ginnifer Goodwin) has taken over leadership as mayor so she's got a lot going on there. Elsa (Georgina Haig) and Emma (Jennifer Morrison) are going to be spending a lot of time together, and Emma startles Elsa, and Elsa ends up putting them in this ice cave, and she can't get them out. So David uses what he's learned from the past from her sister Anna to try to talk her down and try to get them out of that ice cave and help save Emma's life. Just another day in Storybrooke!
In the past, how does David encounter Anna? What is that interaction like?
Dallas: I think it's friendly, and it's also, "Who is this girl?" I think he figures it out very quickly because he has another connection to someone else in Arendelle that we will find out about as well.
The episode description says that Bo Peep (Robin Weigert) is a warlord?! What can you say about this version of Bo Peep?
Dallas: It is a brutal warlord. She shows no mercy over David and his family and his small farm. David is, at this point, still a young man. Because the circumstances of his life, we'll learn in this episode that he's been conditioned to run from things. Running is easier than tackling whatever the problem is. Anna really teaches him to face life and stop running from things. His instinct with Bo Peep is to run from her, and she's a brutal warlord who's actually just a bully that he needs to face up to. So Anna really shows him the way.
According to the nursery rhyme, Bo Peep wants her sheep, and we know that David is a shepherd...
Dallas: Well, she wants everything. She owns everything: She owns land, she owns rights, she owns you. In a sense, everyone who lives on her land becomes her sheep, her slaves. He wants to break away from her tyranny.
Beyond the figurative sheep, is it literal too? Are there sheep present?
Dallas: Oh there are many sheep, yes. In fact, there should be a whole scene of me feeding sheep.
What is the importance of this episode?
Dallas: It pushes things forward back in Storybrooke. David uses what Anna instilled him in his whole life to help out Elsa, who then hopefully helps him out of that ice cave. It's all about believing in the people that you love and not giving up on them.
Does he make the connection between Anna and Elsa, or does he not know that they're sisters?
Dallas: That becomes clear to him in Storybrooke for sure. Anna is such a great character because she's purely good. She sees something in him that is good that she can help. She does that without wanting anything in return.

The hair! It hurts so much!
ReplyDeletewe don't know WHEN exactly Anna left, so what if Anna left, never found a way back home, married, bore the twins and simply aged.
ReplyDeleteMeanwhile Elsa never aged due to her 'condition'
the wig does look like they took it from SOAs set :P
ReplyDeleteThe article clearly says David developed a friendship.In the preview Anna looks like she is teaching David how to use a sword. Plus the creators have already said in interviews the frozen characters will not be related to any of the cast.. And again David mother is Ruth. She gave birth to the twins and gave James away to save the farm
ReplyDeleteAnna is not Charming mother Ruth is we saw her twice in season one episode The Shepard and season two Lady of the lake Anna and Charming are going to be friends she the reason Charming became the hero he is
ReplyDeleteIts always good to see a Charming episode :)
ReplyDeleteI look forward to this Charming and Anna interactions and what her signidicance in his life meant for him as it seems she played a part
Looking forward to the Elsa and Emma scenes too
One of my fave things is the Charming & Hook bromance and it all started from Neverland - Good Form episode is so important in terms of how much i thought and even Colin said that Charming and Liam Jones (Hook's big brother) were alike as a ppl - the parallels of dreamshade, the men they are/were - man of honour, hero in Hook's eye and what Charming stands for Liam stood for and once upon a time Killain Jones stood for and in a way still does, even if he is a pirate [but his skills as pirate is important in Team Emma/Charming too] but deep down he is so much more and he fits and understands Emma and loves her more then words can say and thats important.
I always thought Charming and Hook were similar in terms of being a fighter and standing up and fighting, no rely on anything but their own strength and courage to get up and fight, risk your life for love etc.
Wigs in TV should seriously be banned....
ReplyDeleteOr --- David and Anna are Robin Hood's parents?
