Been curious about ABC’s drama, Once Upon a Time but haven’t been able to catch up yet? Want to join in the fun before we reach the final four episodes of season two?

Look no further! Tonight on ABC at 8/7c, The Price of Magic, a season two special episode will premiere. It will take a look into what has happened in season two thus far, bringing new fans up to date before the final four episodes of season two kick in starting next week. (Longtime fans, there will also be teases into what’s to come in the next four episodes.)


ABC invites new and avid “Once Upon a Time” viewers to take a look at one of the most talked about and critically acclaimed shows. “Once Upon a Time: The Price of Magic” will explore the series in a way that will bring new viewers up to date — but which current viewers will also find illuminating - in discovering the consequences the residents of Storybrooke have had to endure since magic was introduced into the town, and whether Mary Margaret’s path has been tainted since learning that her heart has been darkened after she killed Regina’s mother, Cora. Series creators and executive producers Eddy Kitsis and Adam Horowitz will provide some inside scoop on the importance of family, the characters’ journeys and the mythology of the show. They will also tease what’s upcoming in the exciting final four episodes of the season. “Once Upon a Time: The Price of Magic” airs SUNDAY, APRIL 14 (8:00-9:00 p.m., ET) on the ABC Television Network.


If you’re completely new to the show, and have yet to see season one:

So random theory but wouldn't it be super intense if Ruby as Red during a full moon took the famous bite out of Hook's arm instead of the crocodile! Hook would then be obsessed about time because he'd have to know when the full moons are in order to stay away from Red/Ruby in case she as the wolf wanted more. I feel like that'd be a great way for her character to get in on some of the newer action.

This is actually kind of an amazing theory. O.O
