Quotes 

• Evil Queen : Since when do I care about anyone else's happiness but mine?

• Mr. Gold : [Seeing the destroyed apple tree]  What a mess.

  Regina Mills : Not for long. What can i do for you Mr. Gold?

  Mr. Gold : I was just in the neighborhood, thought I'd stop by. Lovely to see you in such high spirits.

  Regina Mills : Well it's been a good day. I just rid the town of an unwanted nuisance.

  Mr. Gold : Emma Swan. Really?

  Regina Mills : Yes. I imagine she's half way to Boston by now.

  Mr. Gold : I wouldn't bet on that. I've just seen her strolling down main street with your boy, thick as thieves they looked.

  Regina Mills : What?

  Mr. Gold : Perhaps you should've come to me. If Miss. Swan is a problem you can't fix, I'm only too happy to help, for a price of course.

  Regina Mills : I'm not in the business of making deals with you any more.

  Mr. Gold : To which deal are you referring?

  Regina Mills : You know what deal.

  Mr. Gold : Oh, right yeah. The boy i procured for you. Henry. Ever tell you what a lovely name that was? However did you pick it?

  Regina Mills : Did you want her to come to town? You wanted all of this to happen didn't you? Your finding Henry wasn't an accident was it?

  Mr. Gold : What ever do you mean?

  Regina Mills : Where did you get him? Do you know something?

  Mr. Gold : I have no idea what your implying.

  Regina Mills : I think you do. Who is this woman, his mother, this Emma Swan?

  Mr. Gold : I would say you think you know exactly who she is. I really must be going.

  Regina Mills : Tell me what you know about her!

  Mr. Gold : I'm not going to answer you dear, so i suggest you excuse me... Please.

• Evil Queen : Since when were apples a threat?

• Evil Queen : That curse you gave me, it's not working.

  Rumpelstiltskin : Oh so worried. So, so worried. Like Snow and her lovely new husband

  Evil Queen : What?

  Rumpelstiltskin : They paid me a visit as well. They were very anxious, about you and the curse.

  Evil Queen : What'd you tell them?

  Rumpelstiltskin : The truth. That nothing can stop the darkness! Except, of course, their unborn child. You see, no matter how powerful, all curses can be broken. Their child is the key. Of course the curse has to be enacted first.

  Evil Queen : Tell me what I did wrong.

  Rumpelstiltskin : Now for that, there's a price.

• Maleficent : How are you dear?

  Evil Queen : I've been fine.

  Maleficent : Are you? If it were me I'd be simply tortured watching that flake of Snow so happy. Weren't you about the same age when you were to be married before she ruined it all? Yes, you were.

  Evil Queen : Yes, it was about the same age you were when that sleeping beauty got the best of you, my dear Maleficent.

  Maleficent : I soldiered on as you will too, hopefully.

  Evil Queen : Enough games, you know why I'm here. I need my curse back.

  Maleficent : It's not yours any more, a deals a deal. I traded you me sleeping curse.

  Evil Queen : Which failed, undone by a simple kiss. Now please return whats mine.

  Maleficent : The dark curse? Really? You must know that even it's unholy power can not bring your loved one back from the dead. Have you considered a pet? They can be quite comforting.

  Evil Queen : The only comfort for me is Snow White's suffering.

  Maleficent : Well it's her wedding night, i doubt she's suffering right now.

  Evil Queen : I need that curse. I know you keep it hidden in the orb above your staff.

  Maleficent : Hidden for the good of all, old friend. Whoever created that monstrosity makes the two of us look positively... moral. Who did give it too you?

• Regina Mills : [Seeing Emma destroying the apple tree]  What the hell are you doing!

  Emma Swan : Picking Apples.

  Regina Mills : You're out of your mind!

  Emma Swan : No you are if you think a shoddy frame job is enough to scare me off. You're going to have to do better than that. You come after me one more time I'm coming back for the rest of this tree. Because sister you have no idea what I'm capable of. Your move.

• Evil Queen : What do you want?

  Rumpelstiltskin : Simple. In this new land, i want comfort. I want a good life!

  Evil Queen : Fine, you'll have an estate, be rich

  Rumpelstiltskin : I wasn't finished! There's more!

  Evil Queen : There always is with you

  Rumpelstiltskin : In this new land, should i ever come to you for any reason, you must heed me every request. You must do whatever i say so long as i say... please!

  Evil Queen : You do realise that, should i succeed, you wont remember any of this

  Rumpelstiltskin : Oh, well then, what's the harm?

  Evil Queen : Deal. What must i do to enact this curse?

  Rumpelstiltskin : You need to sacrifice a heart

  Evil Queen : I sacrificed my prized stead

  Rumpelstiltskin : A horse? This is the curse to end all curses, you think a horse is gonna do? Great power requires great sacrifice. The heart you need must come from something far more precious

  Evil Queen : Tell me what will suffice?

  Rumpelstiltskin : The heart of the thing you love most

  Evil Queen : What i love most died because of Snow White

  Rumpelstiltskin : Is there no one else you truly love? This curse isn't gonna be easy, vengeance never is dearie. You have to ask yourself the simple question, how far are you willing to go?

  Evil Queen : As far as it takes

  Rumpelstiltskin : Then please stop wasting everyones time and just do it! You know what you love, now go kill it!

• Evil Queen : Who among us is tired of losing? That's why I called you here. To put an end to our misery. Today, we claim victory and move to a new, better realm. A place where we can finally win.

  Blind Witch : And we'll be happy?

  Evil Queen : I guarantee it.
