After a lot of time driving they finally arrived at Storybrooke, Helena was at the back sleeping when Emma asked "Okay, kid. How about an address?" Henry not wanting to go home told her "Forty-four Not Telling You street." Annoyed Emma stops the car in the middle of a crossroad and get's out of the car, Henry glances at his sister before getting out too. Crossing her arms Emma told him "Look, it's been a long night and it's almost... 8:15?" "That clock hasn't moved my whole life. Time's frozen here." Henry told his biological mom.

"Excuse me?" The blonde woman asks him with a half confused half annoyed face, "The Evil Queen did it with her curse. She sent everyone from the Enchanted Forest here." The brunette boy tells her while both lean onto the car, "Okay, the Evil Queen sent a bunch of fairy tale characters here." Emma asked confused, "Yeah, and now they're trapped." Henry finishes. "Frozen in time, stuck in Storybrooke, Maine. That's what you're going with?" Emma says, "It's true!

"Then why doesn't everybody just leave?" Emma asks, "They can't. If they try, bad things happen." Henry explains to her, suddenly a man across t he street calls out to Henry as he crosses the road with his dog in Emma and Henry's direction."Henry! What are you doing here? Is everything alright?" the man asks as he looks at Henry, "I'm fine, Archie." the 11 year old boy says petting the dalmatian, "Who's this?" Archie asks looking at the Blonde woman with a red leather jacket, "Just someone trying to give him a ride home." Emma says not wanting to add anything else.

"She's my mom, Archie." Henry tell him making the man look at the woman slightly shocked "Oh. I see." he says, Emma wanting to get rid of all the awkwardness asks "You know where he lives?" "Yeah, sure. Just, ah, right up on Mifflin street. The Mayor's house is the biggest one on the block." Archie answers pointing at the street "You're the Mayor's kids?" Emma asks astonished, "Uh, maybe." Henry says, Archie shook his head knowing that where one of the Mills twins was the other was not far behind. "Hey, where were you today, Henry? Because you missed your session." he asked, "Oh, I forgot to tell you. We went on a field trip." Henry lied, "Henry. What did I tell you about lying? Giving into one's dark side never accomplishes anything." Archie told him.

"Oookay. Well, I really should be getting him home." Emma said, "Yeah, sure. Well, listen. Um. Have a good night and, uh, you be good, Henry." Archie said before walking away "So that's your shrink." Emma says, "I'm not crazy." Henry defends himself "Didn't say that. Just, he doesn't seem 'cursed' to me. Maybe he's just trying to help you." Emma tells her son while the cold air hits her face blowing her hair behind her. "He's the one who needs help because he doesn't know." Henry insists, "That he's a fairy tale character?" Emma questioned him, "None of them do. They don't remember who they are." explained Henry while shifting from one foot to the other. "Convenient. Alright, I'll play. Who's he supposed to be?" Emma asks raising her brow, "Jiminy Cricket." the young brunette boy answers, "Right, the lying thing. Thought your nose grew a little bit." Emma teased him, "I'm not Pinocchio!" Henry exclaimed, "Course you're not. Because that would be ridiculous." The blonde laughs.

"Please don't take us back there." Henry asked Emma who was carrying a sleeping "I have to.
I'm sure your parents are worried sick about you two." Emma explained to him, "We don't have parents-- just a mom, and she's evil." Henry scoffed dreading entering the house, "Evil? That's a bit extreme, isn't it?" Emma states "She is. She doesn't love us. She only pretends to." Henry exclaims, "Kid. I'm sure that's not true and that your sister isn't of the same opinion." Emma says looking at him slightly as they near the door. "Henry? Oh, Henry. Where's Helena?" Regina Mills asked pulling her son into a bone crushing hug, "Ohh. Are you okay? Where have you two been?! What happened?" Regina frests looking at him,  "We found our real mom!" Henry shouts and runs inside the house. "Y-you're Henry's birth mother?" Regina asks looking at Emma, with a shocked face, "Hi." Emma says holding Helena, who groggily wakes up, "Mom?" She asks drowsily, "Hey sweetie." Regina says pulling her daughter into her arms and hugging her "I missed you mom." Hellena says after yawning, smiling Regina kisses her forehead and says "Go to bed." Humming the sleepy girl walks to the town's sherrif who picks her up and says "I'll just go and check on the lad, make sure he's all right and put her to bed."
