Hello! Let’s continue the fabulous story about the interesting series. Today I will tell you about the second season of the series “Once Upon a Time”. Let’s begin!

The Plot of Season 2

The real world and the fairy-tale world are united. And now that the curse is broken, the fairy-tale characters have woken up and remembered who they were. To their horror, they, for some reason, did not return back to their world. Even worse, Rumpelstiltskin, aka Mr. Gold, fought Regina for power and brought magic back to the city. Magic has its place in the Enchanted forest, but its appearance in the real world, in Storybrooke, can lead to inexplicable and unpredictable consequences. Now the fairy tale characters have to confront magic to get back home. New heroes, new familiarity with old ones, and those who could be trusted can go against everyone.

Who is Tamara ? Will Emma win again? Will Regina choose good or evil? What is Rumpelstiltskin’s strength?

Watch and find out!

Facts:

  • Actor Gil McKinney auditioned for the role of Captain Hook, but did not pass the casting. Later, the authors of the show remembered him and invited Mcginnie to play a small role of Prince Eric, Ariel’s lover.
  • Colin O’donoghue, who plays the wonderful Captain Hook, is the guitarist in the band. This is not a joke, a pirate is also a rock star! He plays in an Irish band called “the Enemies”.
  • Most of the items in Mr. Gold’s store were brought by the actors.
  • The closet that Emma was sent through when she was born is a tribute to The Chronicles of Narnia.
  • Since Jared Gilmore (Henry Mills) is a minor, he is only allowed to work ten hours a day. When performing one of the scenes, one of the actors thought that it was actually Jared, and when he found out that it was not so, he burst out laughing, because in fact it was a twenty-year-old woman.

Quotes:

  • “A man who is not ready to fight for what he wants deserves only what he has.”
  • — How do you do that?
    — Doing what?
    — Live on and endure yourself. Knowing how many terrible things you have done.
    — “You tell yourself that you did the right thing. And if you say this often enough, one day you actually begin to believe in it.”
  • “There are no accidents — everything that happens happens according to someone’s plan, and we can’t do anything about it, some higher forces conspire to make this happen.”
  • “When you control something, you’re not afraid of it anymore.”
  • “Never give up on the people you love…”

Some new words:

  • Your Majesty — Ваше Величество
  • cinnamon — корица
  • Hell! — К черту! Чёрт возьми!
  • Damn it! — Проклятье!
  • to rip the heart out — вырвать сердце из груди

So, start or continue to watch the series. It becomes more interesting with each series and you no longer think that you are watching it for study, and you learn the words automatically!
