44 - And Straight on 'Til Morning

At the Storybrooke Mines, Alana, Emma and Regina were walking through the mines towards the trigger.

"Do you guys feel that?" Emma asked as she felt being sucked out of the air.

"I can feel it. It's like the oxygen's being sucked out of the air," Alana said.

"Not the oxygen. The magic," Regina said.

"Oh, feels like oxygen..." Alana said.

"It feels the same," Regina said.

"Explains a lot," Alana said.

"You two enjoy your chat?" Emma asked.

"Not really..." They answered as they turned a corner and see the diamond floating in the air, still glowing blue as thee three women approached it.

"There it is. Once it stops glowing, its destruction is achieved, and then well, then we'll see the real carnage. I'll try to contain its energy as long as I can," Regina said as she stood behind the diamond.

"It won't be long, we'll have the bean soon, then we can get the hell out of here," Emma said.

"Slowing the device is going to require all the strength I have," Regina said.

"You're not coming with us, are you? When you said good-bye to Henry, you were saying goodbye," Alana said.

Regina looked at them tearfully, "He knows I love him, doesn't he?" Regina asked.

"Of course he does, but, Regina, no," Alana said.

"Regina, no, there has gotta be another way," Emma said.

"You were right, you know. Everything that's happening it's my fault. I created this device. It's only fitting that it takes my life," Regina said.

"What am I supposed to tell Henry?" Alana asked.

"Tell him that in the end, it wasn't too late for me to do the right thing," Regina said as she smiled sadly.

"Regina, please..." The twins said.

"Everyone looks at me as the Evil Queen, including my son. I may die as Regina," Regina said.

"Regina," Emma said and stepped forward to try and stop her but Regina ignored her and put her hands in front of the diamond and a light of magic connect her to the diamond.

At the pawnshop, the outside was overrun with vine plants as Mr Gold was pouring a drink for himself and Lacey inside the shop.

"To the end of the world," He offered the drink to her but as hesitated, "Come on, it'll help numb it," Mr Gold said.

"I, uh, I'll drink to that," She reached for her drink but ended up spilling it, "Oh, I...I'm so sorry. Uh, here, I got it," Lacey said and grabbed Baelfire's shawl and used it to clean up the wine.

"Stop! Stop! Put that down!" Mr Gold said.

"It's just an old rag," Lacey said.

Mr Gold took it from her, "It belonged to someone very important. You wouldn't understand," Mr Gold said.

"I said I'm sorry," Mr Gold looked at her, realising what he had to do, he opened the safe behind them and brought out the remains of the chipped teacup then he used his magic to repair it, "That cup again," Lacey nodded her end, "What is it?" She asked.

"It's something from my post. For our past. And I'm sorry... Let's not fight," Mr Gold said and he poured the blue potion into the cup and a tumbler glass and gave the cup to Lacey, she sipped it and regained her memories as Belle.
