Quotes 

• Lancelot : Leaving is unwise. The Enchanted Forest is not as you remember it. The ogres have returned.

  Emma Swan : Ogres? Like, as in "Fee-fi-fo-fum"?

  Mary Margaret Blanchard : Those would be giants.

• Emma Swan : [referring to Cora]  I'm, uh... sorry I torched our ride home. I couldn't let her get to Henry. I just...

  Mary Margaret Blanchard : You had to put Henry first.

  Emma Swan : I was angry at you for so long... wondering how you could choose to let me grow up without you. But then, just seeing all this... You gave up everything for me. And you're still doing that.

  [she becomes teary-eyed] 

  Emma Swan : I'm sorry, I'm not good at this. I... I guess I just... I'm not, I'm not used to someone putting me first.

  Mary Margaret Blanchard : Oh...

  [she embraces Emma] 

  Mary Margaret Blanchard : Well, get used to it.

• Snow White : [of the king]  How close is his army?

  [an arrow hits the table between them] 

  Prince Charming : I'd say pretty close.

• Snow White : What kind of general hides behind a mask? Who are you really, Leviathan?

  Lancelot : "Leviathan"? That's what they're calling me?

  [he takes off his helmet] 

  Lancelot : Name's Lancelot.

  Snow White : Lancelot? Of the Round Table?

  Lancelot : Not anymore.

• Mary Margaret Blanchard : [holds Emma back when seeing her talking to Cora]  As bad as you think Regina is, this woman is worse.

• Mary Margaret Blanchard : [at Snow's former home]  I never thought I'd see this place again. This room. It was your nursery.

  Emma Swan : I lived here?

  Mary Margaret Blanchard : Never even got to spend a night. This is the life I wanted you to have. I was going to teach you how to walk in here. How to talk. How to dress for your first ball. You never got to do any of it. We never got to be a family.

• [Ruth intends to relinquish the healing water for herself to Snow] 

  Ruth : That water can lift your curse, allow you and my son to have a child.

  Snow White : But you'll die. I won't let you give your life for this.

  Ruth : That's what parents do. They put their children first. Someday, you will understand.

• [Snow White is comforting Charming's mother, who has been shot with an arrow] 

  Ruth : Thank you.

  Snow White : Oh. It's the least I can do, make you comfortable.

  Ruth : No - for giving my son something to believe in. All he's ever dreamt of was having a wife, and a son. Fret not. It could be a daughter; but trust me, all that matters is that it's healthy.

• Mary Margaret Blanchard : [to ogre]  Back away from my daughter!

• Mary Margaret Blanchard : Wanna see where you're from, Emma? That's right. We're going home.

• Lancelot : Take my bravest warrior with you. Allow Mulan to defend you.

  Emma Swan : We can defend ourselves.

  Mary Margaret Blanchard : Deal. Thank you, Lancelot, for always looking out for me.

• King George : Times have been good for you, haven't they? I can see a light in your eyes. Cherish that. Because that light can die, and be replaced by something else. Pain.

  Snow White : The only thing you know of pain is how to inflict it.

• Mary Margaret Blanchard : Why can't you just listen to me?

  Emma Swan : Why couldn't you have trusted me?

• Mary Margaret Blanchard : I've lived here, Emma. I know this world, and its dangers.

  Emma Swan : Is that why you came through the portal? Because you thought I was helpless here?

  Mary Margaret Blanchard : No. I came through to be with you.

• Emma Swan : [amazed, after Mary Margaret has shot the ogre in the eye]  When was the last time you shot an arrow?

  Mary Margaret Blanchard : 28 years ago. Guess it's like riding a bike.

  Emma Swan : Yeah, but... how did you know you could hit that?

  Mary Margaret Blanchard : I didn't.

• Lancelot : So - what's your child gonna be?

  Snow White : A girl.
