Demi and Emma finally arrive in Storybrooke.
"Okay kid, how about an address?" Demi says. "Forty-four Not Telling You Street." Emma replies. Demi stops the car in the middle of the road and gets out. Emma gets out as well.
"Look, it's been a long night and it's almost...8:15?" Demi furrowed her brows confused as she looked at the clock tower. "That clock hasn't moved my whole life. Times frozen here."
Demi looks back at Emma, "excuse me?"
"The Evil Queen did it with her curse. She sent everyone from the Enchanted Forest here." She explains to her birth mother.
"Okay, the Evil Queen sent a bunch of fairy tail characters here." Emma nodded, "Yeah, and now they're trapped."
Demi crosses her arms over her chest, "Frozen in time, stuck in Storybrooke, Maine. That's what you're going with?"
"It's true!" Emma exclaims. "Then why doesn't everybody just leave?" Demi asks. "They can't. If they try, bad things will happen." Emma replies.
A man with a dog approaches Demi and Emma. "Emma! What are you doing out here? is everything alright?" Emma nods, "I'm fine Archie."
"Who's this?" Archie asks Emma. "Just someone trying to give her a ride home." Demi replies. "She's my mom, Archie." Emma says anyway.
Demi rolls her eyes, "you know where he lives?" Archie nods, "Yeah, sure. Just, ah, just right up on Mifflin street. The Mayor's house is the biggest one on the block."
Demi turns to Emma, "you're the mayors kid?" Emma smiles and chuckles a bit, "uh, maybe."
"Hey, where were you today, Emma? Because you missed your session." Archie asks. "Oh, I forgot to tell you. I went on a field trip." Archie tilts his head, "Emma, what did I tell you about lying? Giving into ones dark side never accomplished anything."
Demi raises her brows and places a hand on Emma's shoulder, "Ooookay. Well, I really should be getting her home." Archie nods and starts to walk away, "Yeah, sure. Well, listen. Um. Have a good night and, uh, you be good, Emma."
They both get back in the car and buckle, "so that's your shrink?" Demi asks. "I'm not crazy." Emma defensively says. "Didn't say that. Just, he doesn't seemed 'cursed' to me. Maybe he's just trying to help you."
"He's the one who needs help cause he doesn't know." Emma looks at Demi. "That he's a fairy tale character?" Emma shakes her head, "none of them do. They don't remember who they are."
Demi nods and starts the drive, "Convenient. Alright, I'll play. Who's he supposed to be?"
"Jiminy Cricket."
"Right, the lying thing. Thought your nose grew a little bit." Demi smiles.
"I'm not Pinocchio!"
"Course you're not. Because that would be ridiculous."
