–[Fairy Tale Land – Past]–

(Red is quickly running through the woods. She arrives at a tent where Prince Charming, Snow White, Rafael, and several others are gathered around a map. They are discussing strategy when she enters.)

Prince Charming: King George's men are here on this ridge...

Red: We have to move camp. They're coming for us.

Rafael: No! We will not run. We said we were going to take the kingdom back and we can't do that with our tails between our legs. ...No offense.

Red: But matters have worsened. The King has a new general.

Snow White: Who is he?

Red: They call him the Leviathan. They say he attacks like a monster striking from the depths of the sea. You never see him coming, you never survive.

Prince Charming: We'll see about that.

Snow White: How close is his army?

(An arrow tears through the tent and strikes the table.)

Rafael: I'd say pretty close.

(Everyone exits the tent. Several of King George's men have gathered outside.)

Snow White: We should split up – divide them.

Prince Charming: Exactly. Go. Go! Go.

(Everyone scatters, except Prince Charming and Rafael, who lingers back.)

Snow White: Aren't you both coming?

Rafael: He's going after Charming. You'll have a better chance of escaping on your own. Don't worry. Meet us in two days' time at the cabin.

Snow White: The cabin? Where she is? Are you sure?

Prince Charming: We're engaged. I think it's about time you met my mother.

(They notice a masked knight on a horse watching them from a distance.)

Rafael: Go. Go.

(Snow White takes off into the woods but is followed by the masked knight. The knight manages to get ahead of her and easily knocks her down.)

Snow White: What kind of general hides behind a mask? Who are you really, Leviathan?

Lancelot: Leviathan? That's what they're calling me?

(He removes his helmet.)

Lancelot: Name's Lancelot.

Snow White: Lancelot? Of the Round Table?

Lancelot: Not anymore.

(In 'the pit', Mary Margaret is still unconscious. Cora tends to her, while Emma watches.)

Emma: You sure she's going to be okay?

Cora: Don't worry. She'll be fine.

Emma: What is this place? Where are we?

Cora: It's a little island our captors like to think of as their haven.

Emma: Haven? From what?

Cora: The world's dangerous. What's left of it, anyway.

Emma: Well, they can't keep us down here. We didn't do anything wrong.

Cora: Neither did I.

Emma: Then why are you here?
