This episode was insane. We meet a young Cruella as she runs through the woods while being chased by two Dalmatians (clever). She is stopped by her mother who is totally giving off cold hearted and evil vibes. We find out that Cruella's father has died and her mother won't let her leave. She takes her to the attic and tells Cruella that will be her new room. Cruella accuses her of hiding her away like one of her dogs. Her mother locks her in.
Present day Cruella nearly runs Maleficent over. They talk and Mal is seriously pissed off and wants to know why Cruella lied about her baby being dead. Cruella taunts her by saying they left the baby to die in the woods and Mal promises to kill her as she turns into a dragon. Cruella puts her under her spell and makes Mal take a nap in the middle of the road before driving off.
Gold leaves the Author in his cabin and meets with Belle at the wishing well. She apologizes and he tells her that he still loves her and shows her his heart which is all black except for one spot. He says when that spot is darkened, he will lose the ability to love. They cry and kiss until Belle pulls back and coldly tells him that Will is a better kisser. Regina appears holding Belle's heart in her hand and tells Belle to leave and forget what happened. She looks at Gold and tells him that he won't warn Zelena that she is coming or she will crush Belle's heart.
Cruella finds the Author in the cabin and threatens to kill him, but he's not afraid. It's clear they know one another. She leaves and he is clearly a little shaken. In another part of town, Henry gets off the bus and finds Pongo (yes the dalmation) and wonders why he is out there all alone. Pongo leads him to an alley where Cruella is waiting and she makes him get in the car with her.
Regina warns the Charmings and Emma that Zelena is alive and has been pretending to be Marian. She is planning on leaving for New York to rescue him and Roland. Regina and Emma both get video messages from Henry and watch it together. Henry tells them he has been kidnapped by Cruella and she appears on the message telling them to bring her the Author's dead body or she'll kill Henry. Needless to say, both mothers are PISSED.
When Gold returns he is angry that the Author didn't tell him about his past with Cruella and he's even more pissed that she's taunting the Savior by kidnapping Henry and threatening his life. The Author down plays it and hands Gold a napkin which he reads and suddenly he doesn't seem to care as much.
Young adult Cruella is listening to a radio in her attic until her mother comes in and takes the radio and scolds her daughter for stealing it. They hear a knock on the door and she leaves, locking Cruella up again. The Author, who goes by Isaac, is at her door and says he works for the newspaper and would like to interview her because of her highly renowned dog training. She begrudgingly accepts and he starts asking her questions, hinting at magic. He sees the portraits on the wall and assumes they are relatives but she coldly informs him they're husbands. He makes a callous remark and she kicks him out even though he apologizes and says he is just looking for a good story. She throws him out on the lawn and Cruella gets his attention from the attic. She tells him she has stories to tell, but he has to get her down from there- which he does. He offers to take her somewhere quiet, but she wants to go somewhere loud because she's been living in an attic. He takes her to a club in his car (which later becomes hers) and it appears they are in the 1920s...kind of. He orders her a gin (ha ha).
The heroes plot on how to get Henry back. Emma, Regina, and Hook leave to search for him and Emma makes another cold remark to her parents about not trusting them. On their walk, Regina tells Emma she's acting like a petulant child and her parents were only trying to do what was best for her. She points out that both her and Hook have done bad things and she argues that while that is true, neither of them have ever tried to sell their lives as people who only did the right thing. Hook offers that even Heroes make mistakes but then they hear Henry calling for help. They can't agree on which direction it's coming from so they split up. Regina and Hook find conch shells in the directions they go and realize they've been tricked.
We flash back to Cruella and Isaac and they talk. Cruella shares that her mother poisoned all of her husbands and ripped the trumpet flowers out of the garden because they are Cruella's favorite. Isaac feels bad for her and they realize their night is coming to an end. Isaac insists it doesn't have to and he shows Cruella is magic pen and magic ink. He explains that he records stories and they are in one of many dimensions. He asks her what year it is when she scoffs at him and she doesn't know. He proves it to her by writing that she's wearing a diamond necklace and earrings, and when it appears she believes him. He writes that she has control over animals and she says she has to go confront her mother alone and she'll meet him back at his hotel room.
Her mother goes to his hotel room and asks where Cruella is. He says he doesn't know and she warns him not to trust her. She says that Cruella poisoned her own father and smiled about it. She also killed her mother's other husbands. She ripped up the trumpet flowers because they're poisonous. She warns him that Cruella will take what he loves most and destroy it. When she leaves, he looks and finds his pen is gone. When she arrives home, Cruella is waiting for her. She takes control of the dogs and makes them kill her mother.
When Isaac arrives at the house, Cruella is sewing in the attic. He asks where her mother is and she replies that she is gone. She holds up a coat made of Dalmatian fur and adds that her precious dogs are with her now. That was so creepy. He is confused and she laughs simply saying that most people try to hide their darkness or fight it, but ever since she was little she has always wanted to splash around in the darkness- it was more fun that way. They fight over the ink and pen and ink is spilled on Cruella, causing her pretty blonde hair to become white and black. He writes something down before Cruella tries to shoot him. The gun doesn't work and she demands to know what he did. He said he took a page from her playbook and walks away.
Charming and Snow go to the cabin and the Author is afraid. He reveals Cruella's secret to them. SHe can't kill anyone. They realize that she is going to push Emma and darken her heart. They race to get to her.
Emma comes face to face with Cruella who is ready to push Henry off a cliff. She keeps threatening Emma until Emma uses her magic to push Cruella off. She and Henry hold each other as Killian, Regina, and her parents arrive on the scene. Emma peaks over the cliff and sees Cruella's body and looks at it coldly. Uh-oh.
