"David!" Mary Margaret gasped when she rushed into the sheriff's station, seeing her husband unconscious on the floor. "David! David! David! Oh! David? What happened?" Mary Margaret asked when she rushed to his side when he started to wake up.

"Hook..." David groaned when he started to get up, seeing Dream's scarf in front of him. "He ambushed me... He had some control of Dream... tricked me." David sighed when Mary Margaret noticed Dream's scarf in his hand. 

"Are you hurt?" She asked him.

"No, I'm fine... It's not me he wants; it's Gold. And his hook." David sighed when he looked over to see Hook's fake gloved hand on the desk. "And I don't know what he's got on Dream... She's just a kid." David sighed when Mary Margaret sighed to herself while she tried to help him sit. "Yeah, I'm gonna enjoy throwing him in jail," David said, sitting in a chair, when Mary Margaret sighed, fearing the worst for the little girl she watched grow up.

"Hook isn't the problem, David..."

"Tell that to my head," David said, holding his temple when he set Dream's scarf on the desk. 

"It's Regina. She's been lying to us. She's working with Cora to find Gold's dagger." Mary Margaret said as David's eyes went wide. 

"The dagger controls him... If Cora gets it, she can force Gold and all his power to do her bidding." David said, standing up, when he looked at his wife, worried.

"Or become the Dark One herself." She said, voicing her main concern.

"Neither one of those options sounds good. Lucky for us, we can call the man himself. He's with Emma." David said, turning to start dialing on the phone. 

"Tried it. I sent a message." Mary Margaret sighed, making David look at her. 

"Well, we can't just wait. I mean, they are controlling Dream to do who knows what..." David said when Mary Margaret tried to think of something, quickly.

"No, we have to buy time until they call us back or return." She said, making David furrow his brows. 

"How?"

"Regina... She doesn't trust her mother. Never has. If we can put some doubt in her about Cora's motives, it might slow them down." Mary Margaret said that she remembered what her childhood was like when she was around Cora and Regina. 

"And you think she'll just trust you?" David asked when Mary Margaret sighed to herself. 

"Well, she doesn't need to trust me. She just has to listen to me... And I know how to get her to do that." Mary Margaret said when David just furrowed his brows, but Mary Margaret picked up Dream's scarf, making him nod at her. 

Regina's children. Henry and Dream, that's all Regina truly cared about.


New York City, New York.

Henry and Neal were walking ahead of Emma and Gold, catching up for eleven missed years. 

"So, uh, you like pizza?" Neal asked as they crossed the crosswalk. 

"Yeah... Let me guess; you're gonna tell me the best pizza's in New York, and I gotta try it, right?" Henry asked him when Neal smirked at him. 

"Actually, it's in the Kingdom of Damarian on the north shore of the Dragon Fields of Zorn," Neal said, chuckling when Henry gave him a puzzled look. "Nah, it's in New York. Here, let's get you a slice." Neal said, leading Henry into a place called "Arco di Trionfo Pizzeria."
