Best of Season 2
S02E01 (3.90)
Broken- Reality and myth begin to merge as the fairytale characters awaken from Evil Queen Regina's broken curse and remember who they were. But to their dismay, they aren't transported back to fairytale land. To make matters worse, Rumplestiltskin - aka Mr. Gold - in an effort to gain the upper hand in his power struggle with Regina, has introduced magic into the town. In fairytales magic has its place, but in our world it can have unfathomable consequences. Meanwhile, back in the fairytale land, Prince Phillip awakens his sleeping beauty, Aurora, but discovers that he and his traveling companion, Mulan, will soon have to face a deadly foe. Written by Edward Kitsis & Adam Horowitz and directed by Ralph Hemecker.

The season 2 premiere hit ratings almost as good as the pilot, but the entire rest of the season had a downward spiral of low ratings.
