3x02 Lost Girl

SCENE: Neverland. Present. Mr. Gold conjures a fireball to start a campfire. He freezes his shadow on a large rock and uses his dagger to cut his shadow from his feet.

Mr. Gold: You know what to do. Hide it where no one can find it, not even me.

SCENE: Neverland. Present. David, Emma, the Jones Siblings, Logan, Mary Margaret, and Regina trek through the jungle.

Madeline: The ridge is just a few hundred paces up ahead.

Emma: You really think we're gonna be able to see Pan's hideout?

Hook: From there, we should be able to see everything, including where he's keeping your son and daughter.

Regina: You know, I could have just poofed us up here in an instant.

Madeline: Where? Have you any idea what's up here or anywhere? There are dangers all about. Only I can guide us past them.

Emma: She's right. Hook and Mads' lived here before. If they say hiking up is the best way, then we listen.

Mary Margaret: Here. You need to stay hydrated. (Mary Margaret gives Emma some water)

Emma: Thanks, Mary Margaret.

Logan: You know, "Mary Margaret" is a bit formal. You could call her "mom" if you want. You've done it before.

Emma: That was...back when we--

Mary Margaret: ...we were about to die. Oh, no, I get it. (The two women catch up with the rest of the group. Logan frowns and sighs in frustration before he also catches up with them.)

(In the lead, David is cutting down branches blocking their pathway. He sees a patch of thorns and moves to slash them. Hook stops him.)

Hook: No. No!

David: I can handle a couple of thorns.

Madeline: That's dreamshade. It's not the thorns you have to worry about. It's the poison they inject you with. This plant is the source of the toxins Hook and I used on the Dark One.

Emma: The poison that almost killed Gold?

Hook: Indeed. We used a concentrated dose. In its natural form, death would be much slower and far more painful. I suggest we go this way.

Logan: We'll go this way. (He and David go off as Mary Margaret and Regina follow behind.)

Madeline: Your father and uncle're distrustful fellows.

Emma: They're just not used to working with the bad guys.

Hook: I can assure you, on this island, we are not the bad guy.

Emma: Yeah, well, Pan's not supposed to be one either.

Madeline: What possibly gave you that idea?

Emma: Every story I ever heard as a child.

Hook: Well, they got it all wrong. Pan is the most treacherous villain we've ever faced. Tell us something, luv. In these stories...what were we like? Other than a villain. Handsome and beautiful, I gather.

Emma: If waxed mustaches and perms are your thing. Oh, and no sister.

Madeline: What? I don't exist? (Emma shakes her head as she walks off.)

Hook: I take it by your tone, perms are bad?

David: Up here! We made it.

Madeline: Pan's lair should be just...right...
