Once Upon A Time Recap - "Unforgiven" (S04E14)

In this episode we FINALLY find out Snow and Charming's secret- well the gist of it. But for good measure, I'm not revealing it until the end just like they did in the show. ;)

Snow has a nightmare that Maleficent is back and taking her family away from her. She and David are determined to keep an eye on Cruella and Ursala. Regina gets upset when the Queens bring up her past in front of Henry who doesn't pay much attention. Cruella and Ursala head to Gold's shop. Emma and Hook cross them and Emma realizes Hook and Ursala know each other. Before she can press him for information, Charming intercepts and insists they need to keep an eye on the queens. Emma thinks he's being paranoid but she indulges and they follow them. The women steal a box from Gold's shop and Belle lets Charming know. They pull the women over and Charming finds the box and object Maleficent loved. He steals it and says he found nothing and they're free to go.

Back in the enchanted forest, the 3 Queens approach Charming and Snow and inform them that Regina stole a dark curse from Maleficent that she is planning to cast over the land. Snow and Charming want to stop it and the Queens accompany them (pretty much against the Charming's will) to a tree of knowledge that can give them the answer about how to stop the curse. The Charmings sneak away in the middle of the night to find the tree and they ask the question, but are rejected. The Queens see them and ponder why they were rejected until Maleficent puts it together. She informs them that Snow is pregnant (David's reaction was so cute) but they don't understand why the tree would reject them. Maleficent informs them that the child is a product of true love so it can be either a great hero with the potential for great goods BUT the child also has the potential to be a great villain like Maleficent. This information worries them.

Hook brings Emma lunch and when she brings up Ursala things get awkward. They have a disagreement and Hook leaves. Emma catches her parents loading up their truck and asks what they're doing. Snow lies and says they're going camping. Emma buys it and let's them go. In reality they're sneaking to the cavern under the library where Maleficent's ashes are because they're realized the queens plan to use dark magic to bring her back. The Queens and Rumple catch them but they don't see Rumple. They cut their hands, revealing that the spell requires the blood of those who hurt Maleficent the most. She is resurrected and she tells them she is going to make them suffer.

They resolve to come clean to Emma and walk in on a tender moment between Hook and Emma where Emma is apologizing and saying how much truth means to her and how she felt guilty for thinking her parents were lying to her earlier. She says that she wants to be like them and see the best in people. She sees them and invites them in and tell her that Maleficent is back.

It's revelaed that Malefient came to Snow back int he forrest and shared that they have to stop Regina. She tells Snow that she is also pregnant and they have to do this for their children. Snow (rudely and coldly) refuses to work with her- not wanting to use darkness to stop darkness.

Snow goes to Regina for help stopping the Queens and asks her to go under cover with them. She shares her secret with Regina- Maleficent lost her baby because of Snow and Charming.
