Spinning has never looked as steamy as with Cora and Rumple.

And, to be fair, neither has evil.

Now that’s a fun episode.

The mid-season finale of Season 3 was emotional, to say the least.

However, one silver lining is that the show was able to pack a punch with its second-half opener.

It’s not only romantic.
