S1 E15Unfinished Business

Intentionally or not, Ms. Swan, you brought Marian back. You ruined my life. And there is no coming back from that. Because I know you think you didn't mean to, but you hurt someone. So do as I do. Learn to live with it.

[speaking to Belle after Anna slips and falls to the ground unconscious] You'll have to excuse us, but this is family business.

WWill

If you love someone enough to ruin your entire life for, it's always worth it.

I'm going to give you a potion that possesses the power to transform something old into something new.

What kind of potion's that?

Furniture polish.

Your stories went poorly because you made bad choices. But... now you're making good ones. It may not happen as quickly as you want, but, if you stay the course, your happiness will come.

You honestly believe that?

It doesn't matter what I believe. What matters is that you do.

I was wrong. It wasn't just Anna's love that saved me.

What are you talking about?

When I landed in this strange town, I was certain that, without Anna, I was doomed. But I got control over my powers again without her.

How?

I didn't really know until today, until the same thing happened to you, and then it finally hit me. It's not only Anna's love or Henry's that can save us. They accept us for who we are, and that's important. But it's not enough. It's on us, too. You have to love yourself, Emma. The good and the bad. The only way to ever truly be in control of your powers is to embrace them. Because this... This is who you are.

Your strange fixation really holds no interest for me.

Oh, but it should. And it will. You see, these ribbons were of no use to me until this moment. They can bond three magical sisters together, but only if all of us are a perfect match.

And what makes for this perfect match?

When all three have embraced their powers, which we now have, thanks to you. Now, I wield the magic of my three sisters. Now, my mirror is complete. And with this power, I can finally cast a spell over all of Storybrooke. I could probably even defeat you and decorate this place with your bones. Shall I try?

Dearie, I warn you. Do not overestimate your power.

And I warn you. Don't underestimate it.

You do know me. I pick flowers, I talk to birds, I do all kind of warm fuzzy things. You know what else? I kill. That's right, Snow White's a murderer. I killed the Evil Queen's mommy, and then I said I was sorry... And I didn't mean it.

AAnna

That's horrible.

Still wanna hold hands, sing "Zip-a-Dee-Doo-Dah"?

I'm not happy with my mom dating a dirty pirate like you.

Dirty? I bathe quite regularly I'll have you know.

[after realizing she has always had her sisters' love] I am a monster. Not because of my powers, but because of what I let them turn me into. I have to undo this.

No, Ingrid. You'll die.

I know. It's okay. Elsa, Anna, you found each other. And, Emma, you found your family. Even if it wasn't with me. You... You deserve your memories. [returns Elsa and Emma's lost memories with a wave of her hand] You three are so special. Never forget that.

There has to be another way. You deserve your happy ending too.

Long ago, a prophecy told me that you would lead me to just that, Emma. And this is it. All I wanted was to have my sisters' love, and now I have it. Now I get to join them.

I'm not in the mood for a hope speech, Emma.

You mistake me for my mother. Besides, you don't need a speech. You need a drinking buddy.

So, this is what a man who always wins looks like.

I assure you, Ursula, my situation is only temporary.

Really? How you gonna fix that? Play the lotto?
