Tinkerbell has the worst outfit.

Really? I rather liked it. A lot sleeker than the complex, super-fancy stuff most of the fairies wear. Definitely agree that the Blue Fairy seems kinda unforgiving, after all, Tink did mean well. Losing your wings over it seems way harsh.

What interested me was Regina attempts to commit suicide when she meets with Tinkerbell. The first time she jumps from her balcony and Tink stops her.

Don't have a tape copy to go back and check, but I thought Regina's fall was an accident-- she was angry and pounding on the railing, it broke, she lost her balance and fell. Did I miss something?

I may very well be wrong-- shaky memory these days, but is this the first time Regina actually did something approaching a selfless gesture that did not involve Henry directly? Namely, that deal with cautioning Tink about what it would do if she stooped to revenge.

I did really appreciate that the writers left a lot of ambiguity in the scene. That is, was Regina truly sorry for what she did to Tink, or was she just conniving a way to not be dead? Or was it all about trying anything possible if it would help them rescue Henry? No matter which, it was a really risky bit there, offering Tink her heart, and the ability to crush it.

Future ep prediction? I'm hoping that Regina has something to do with Tink getting her wings back, either through Henry (who really believes, right?) or maybe even via the Blue Fairy back in Storybrooke.
