Well, he's a Stranger no more. After weeks of lurking mysteriously around town in his motorcycle jacket, August Booth's (Eion Bailey) story is finally told. The episode's fairytale flashback centers on Geppetto (Tony Amendola) and his formerly wooden son, Pinocchio (Jakob Davies).

Skip to the last paragraph for my final summarization of the episode if you don’t want it Spoiled.

We begin at Emma and Mary Margaret’s bachelorette pad, where August is finishing up fashioning a new lock on their front door, one that Regina wouldn’t have a key to. »
