- Roni: You know we don't serve shots of strawberry milk here, right? You better have a good reason for putting my liquor license at risk.
- Lucy Vidrio: This page, it suddenly appeared. It says Henry is going to die if he kisses my mom.
- Regina Mills: So that's why you stopped them from kissing last night?
- Lucy Vidrio: It's all my fault. I... I found Henry and, and tricked him into coming here, and now... now I'm going to lose him.
- Lucy Vidrio: You *are* Regina. So that makes me...
- Regina Mills: That makes you a Mills, Lucy. And so am I. Just don't call me grandma. The Mills family does what heroes do best. We save people.
- Lucy Vidrio: Like my dad?
- Regina Mills: Yes. And we're gonna start exactly like your father did - with a set of walkie-talkies and... an operation name. Any suggestions?
- Lucy Vidrio: "Operation Hyacinth".
- Captain Ahab: If it's Captain Ahab you seek, then your search is over. Though your trouble, alas, has just begun. It's dangerous to seek me out, old man.
- Captain Killian 'Hook' Jones: Well, it's a dangerous thing to call me "old man".
- Ivy Belfrey: Our childhood seems like so long ago.
- Jacinda Vidrio: Yeah. Almost like a, like another world, right?
- Ivy Belfrey: Mm. You have no idea.
- Henry Mills: How exactly can I help?
- Ivy Belfrey: By being who you are deep down. You might not realize it, but I think you could be the hero I need.
- Lucy Vidrio: I know you didn't believe me when I told you that you were the Evil Queen, but-...
- Regina Mills: Yeah, well, a lot's happened since then, Lucy. And you know what? I believe you now.
- Lucy Vidrio: You do? You've read the book?
- Regina Mills: Read it? I *lived* it.
- [first lines]
- Captain Killian 'Hook' Jones: That painting is gorgeous, Alice. The calm before the storm.
- Captain Ahab: The legendary Captain Hook, hmm? Well, it's nice to finally meet you, and... you know, people, they-they always tell me that-that... that I am what you used to be, huh?
- Captain Killian 'Hook' Jones: No, *I'm* what I used to be, mate.
- Captain Killian 'Hook' Jones: [after beating Ahab in a game of dice] Sorry, mate. I hope you have better luck with that white fish of yours.
- [Rogers has asked Eloise for help in solving a murder case]
- Eloise Gardener: They say all great art starts with pain. And now I know yours. The killer is also grappling with pain. An unfillable void, if you will. And just like you, they're looking for a way to express that pain, to externalize it, in a way that only makes sense to them. Both the doctor and the baker were given a gift before they were attacked - a heart-shaped candy box filled with chocolate marzipan truffles.
- Rogers: That's quite specific.
- Eloise Gardener: Everyone has their obsessions. So if you want to find the killer, all you have to do is follow your heart.
