Worlds Colliding (Once Upon a Time) Book Four

From 4.17 "Best Laid Plans", outside the pawnshop, Gold used amplified Dark One power to make the three Matthews fall unconscious.

Freya/Priscilla: (voice over) "Previously on Worlds Colliding (Once Upon a Time)."

Gold instructed Maleficent and Cruella. "Bring them to Freya, Jefferson, Grace, Lisa and Blake's mansion. Alcina will be there as well. I need to have a conversation with Tori, Saphira, Mathias and my own family."

From 4.17 "Best Laid Plans", in the Hatter House, Gold was speaking to the two Queens. "I don't need Alcina, Priscilla, Jefferson, Grace or Blake to help me. Or Tori, Saphira and Mathias for that matter. Lisa will once she becomes fully dark, just as long as my family doesn't stop her from doing so."

From 4.17 "Best Laid Plans", there were flashes of the visions/nightmares giving to Freya, Jefferson and Grace. Freya's being lost to madness and killing everyone. Jefferson's being trapped in Neverland, having to watch his family suffer and unable to do anything about it. Grace's losing control of Illusionist powers and destroying everything.

Gold: (voice over from 4.17 Best Laid Plans) "Which is why I told Maleficent to get into the heads of Priscilla, Jefferson and Grace, to make them so focused on trying to control themselves, Cilla and Jefferson's madness, Grace's magic, that they'll have a tough time trying to help Lisa stay in control, and Blake will have his hands full with trying to help them all."

From 4.17 "Best Laid Plans", in the Hatter House, Gold looked at the two Queens. "I have something that the moment they see it, it will make Alcina and Saphira, and by extent Tori and Mathias, stand down forever."

From 4.17 "Best Laid Plans", in flashback, the Illusionist used a magical quill to draw in the air and create the page with the door in it. The Enchantress used her power to make the page a prison, and magically turning Isaac into bright yellow light as she trapped him in the page's prison.

Enchantress: (voice over from 4.17 Best Laid Plans) "You have forsaken your holy duty, and now you must be punished."

From 4.17 "Best Laid Plans", in the hospital room, August, the Charmings and Regina were talking.

Rose shook her head. "If they put him in there, maybe he should stay in there."

Rose held the page. The page in her hand started to glow with bright yellow and rose red. In a stream of yellow and rose red light, Isaac was released.

Regina: (voice over from 4.17 Best Laid Plans) "If you don't open this thing for us, then Gold will make you open it, Rose, and I don't want to see what he'll do to make you, and how he'll make you."

Isaac pulled down a curtain rod to distract them all, making a run for it.

Snow, David, Emma and Ella were walking.

"The Author?" David asked. "Where is he?"

"We lost him," Ella answered.

"Emma, Ella, we know him," Snow told them.

"What?" Ella asked.

Snow nodded. "We met him a long time ago. He, um..."

"Manipulated us," David finished. "It's because of him we were put on the path to causing Maleficent to lose her children."
