"To the dwarves!" David said as everyone Clanked there glasses together. " That was quite a spill. Are you okay?" David asked Leroy. "I've had worse." Leroy said.

Ruby walked away from the group to clear the table.

"A mouse." A man said. "What? Where?" Ruby shouted. "No. I meant me. I was a mouse. My name was Gus. I lived in Cinderella's pantry, I ate cheese, I gnawed on wood, but I preferred the cheese." The man told Ruby

"And, why are you telling me this?" Ruby asked. "Uh, we haven't had a chance to talk since things...changed. I just wanted you to know who I was... back home." Billy said. "Uh, can I, um, still call you Billy?" Ruby asked.

"You can call me whatever you want, as long as you let me buy you a drink after your shift. I already know Ruby. I want the chance to meet Red." Billy said. "Um, tonight's actually not great. Because... " Ruby said. "Uh, we, uh... we have, uh, plans." Mother and daughter both said.

"That's right, um... It's girls' night. I'm bringing the cheese. Which has nothing to do with you being a mouse." Ruby said. It has to do with the... wine I'm bringing." Constance said.
"Okay. Um... Maybe next time." Billy said.
"Thank you." Ruby said. "No problem." Constance said. "I can spot a girl in trouble. He... He seems really nice. Belle said. "It's... It's complicated. "Ruby said.

A little ways down David day down with his Grandson.

"Is that coffee?" David asked. No." Henry said. "Trying to stay up, huh? Still worried about those nightmares? Well, don't be. Cause, when you go to sleep tonight, I'm going to be right in the next room. Now maybe, lose the java, and go grab a cocoa." David told his grandson.

" Congratulations, Sheriff. Quite a celebration." A guy said walking up to David. "What are you doing here?" David asked. "You may have taken care of me in the old world, but, in this one, we get another go at each other." Spencer or the guy who use to be know as king George said. "Whenever you're ready." David said. "It's a big moment for you, isn't it? On your way to getting your family back." Spencer said. "Ah... Yeah, it must be hard for you. You know, watching good win." David said.

"Good? So sure of yourself. But I know the truth. You're still just a shepherd pretending to be a prince. You weren't fit to run the kingdom, and you sure as hell aren't fit to run this town." Spencer said. I think the people of Storybrooke might disagree with you." David said.

Today. But I'm going to see to it that they see things my way. That they see you for who you really are. By the time I'm done with you, you'll wish you'd killed me when you had the chance." Spencer said. "The people of this town know who I really am. And they've seen me defeat you before. So, if you want to try and take me down, they'll see it again." David said.

Granny and Ruby where in the kitchen. "Almost done. Let's finish clearing out those perishables." Granny said. " What the hell is this?" David asked. "Yeah what he said." Constance said. "We're making a cage. Know anybody who might want thirty-eight frozen lasagnas?" Ruby said. "I 'm sorry, what?" David asked. "Ruby Wolf." Constance said.

"I know. Nobody would believe it if you told them my lasagnas was frozen." Granny said. "No. Why are you building a cage?" David asked. "No. Why are you building a cage?
Ruby: Tonight's the first full moon since the curse broke. It's the first night of Wolfstime." Ruby said. " I thought you figured out how to control the wolf in you ages ago?" David asked.

" Yeah. But, thanks to the curse, I haven't turned in twenty-eight years. I might be rusty. I can't let what happened last time–what happened to Peter–happen to anyone else." Ruby said. "What about your red hood? That could keep you from turning." Constance said. " If I had it. I've looked everywhere. I even went to your dad Constance It's not in town. I don't think it came over with the curse." Ruby said.

"Ruby, I know you. I trust you. Snow trusted you. Wolfstime or not, you won't hurt anyone tonight." David said. "Maybe. But I can't afford to take any chances." Ruby said.

Constance left the party early and went home to get some sleep. But her heart made her go a different way. Unlike her head that new go home her heart lead her to the place of her boyfriend. When she got there she nocked on the door. "Constance I thought you where in town." Jefferson said. "I was we where celebrating the dwarfs way of finding Fairy dust diamonds." Constance said.

" I was on my way home but my feet lead me here." She added. "Well maybe because I'm your boyfriend." Jefferson said putting his arm on his girlfriends torso. "Come on in." Jefferson said. Before picking her up bridal style and carry her to his bed. Jefferson was already looking like he was ready to lay down so was Constance so she took off her converse and layed down and cuddled into her boyfriend chest.

Morning came and half way to nine o'clock Constance phone went off. "Hello." She said. "Hey Constance it's David Ruby is missing can you help us find her." David said. "Yeah." Constance said. She put her phone down and wiggles her way out of Jefferson's arms that where across her body.

She helped find ruby and then later that day locked in the library with her mom. "Mom how did we get stuck in here again?" Constance asked sitting on the floor. "Ruby chained us to the pipes." Belle said. "Oh right." Constance said. "Will someone come save us." Constance said. "I don't know." Belle said. "Granny came in a little while later. "Is she safe and okay?" Constance asked Granny. "Yes dear she is fine and safe."Granny said
