They did Regina dirty with her song choice. Everyone on the cast had a beautiful voice and were big musical fans. He totally called the vibe of the third song,and when hook says croc it's a nickname for rumpstiltskin. Without giving to many spoilers all the fairy tales in once upon a time are connected. Some villains are reformed in the real world some not. Most I can say without revealing to much.

Better question: which fairy tales aren't included ?

Some clarification: the crocodile = the dark one = Rumplestiltskin = the beast (from Beauty & the beast) = Peter Pan’s and the black fairy’s son. He also learned magic to the evil queen and her half sister Zelena (the wicked witch of the west) and had a kinda weird relationship with their mother. Hook and Rumple have a hate relationship throughout the show. This because Rumple’s first wife left him for Hook (‘cause he was too much of a coward). When he became the dark one (immortal and powerful) he took his revenge by taking Hooks hand and killing his ex wife. I know, it’s a bit much and a bit weard.

Further clarification to the clarification: 1. Black Fairy =/= Maleficent. Those are 2 different characters in the show. Maleficent is like a frenemy of the Evil Queen (Regina) and later also of Ursula and Cruella DeVil. 2. You might be asking "How can Peter Pan be the father of anyone if he's a child?" well you see... he isn't. He was a middle aged man before he and Rumplestiltskin as a child got to Neverland where Pan had been to before. There Pan had an entity take Rumplestiltskin away to feel young again and then turn young and regain his magic there.

Yes, and Emma = daughter of Snow White and Prince Charming, she married Hook and had a daughter named Hope. She had a son prior to this called Henry with Neal Cassidy, who is Baelfire, the son of Rumpelstiltskin and Milah, who cheated with Hook and was murdered by her husband. Henry married Cinderella’s second iteration, which is not the same person as the original cinderella but the original stepsisters are children of the second iteration of Tremaine (which is weird) and the second iteration of Tremaine is the same character as the second iteration of Rapunzel from Tangled. Henry and Cinderella II had a daughter called Lucy who is adopted by Tremaine while they are all cursed with fake memories in Seattle. This was made by Tremaine and the Coven of the Eight which are witches led by Gothel from Tangled. Originally they are taken to Storybrooke in Maine. They have no memories prior and have fake ones instead. Emma creates a wish realm using Aladdin’s genie lamp (Aladdin is a genie) where every character introduced prior to that point is given a separate and near identical version. Wish Hook was tricked by Gothel, trapped in a tower and disguised as Rapunzel and have a child who is the second iteration of Alice from Wonderland. Alice II falls in love and eventually gets engaged to Robin Hood and Zelena’s child, Robin Jr. (a girl). Hood was killed by Hades while in the Underworld saving Hook after he was killed by Emma when they both were Dark Ones. The original married a genie called Cyrus, one of Amara’s sons, Amara is a mentor to Jafar who was in a relationship with the Red Queen. Alice was locked in an asylum by Dr Lydgate, father of Mary, involved in a love triangle between Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. The Red Queen was mentored by the Queen of Hearts, mother of Regina and Zelena (Wicked Witch of the West) she was trapped in Wonderland by her daughter Regina (Evil Queen) and left her other daughter to be sucked by a tornado and taken to Oz where she was raised by abusive woodcutter parents. (Only her father was abusive) the Queen of Hearts murdered both Snow’s mother and her daughter first lover, the latter in front of Regina. She then had her daughter save Snow when she was a child. I recommend checking out The Theorisers OUAT for more on the family tree, it only grows more deeper. (Thank you for listening to my rant if you did, I am autistic and OUAT is one of my special interests, I am sorry for Info-dumping.)

Hook used to be a villain yes but this show really took the quote to heart that a villain is just a victim who's story hasn't been told yet. They do an amassing job at explain why they are evil and the hardship they had to go though. (And the impossible journey to redemption). Actually The Evil Queen and Hook are two of the characters, I feel the most sorry for and wanted a happy ending for. Life has sqrewed them both over again and again and again. Neither of them are bad people at heart. They are just people/victims who never got saved or protected like the heroes did and constanty had the small peaces of happiness they had striped away from them again and again until they couldn't take the pain anymore and turned dark as the only way of copping with their insane amount of pain. And even after everyone sees that they are not inherently evil, even after they both try so hard to let go of that image and do good.... they still have to fight the fact that every one still remembers them as evil and the fact that destiny/fait/the author seriously has some kind of vendetta against them too. Those two hasn't had a break from the universe since they were born and this show is so amassing at making us feel sorry for them. Those two really are the best characters in the entire show in my opinion

The thing about once upon a time is that most of the villains actually get redeemed throughout the story. So the evil queen, captain hook, and the wicked witch are all main characters and good guys, though they are still evil or antagonistic in the flashbacks of this episode. The only villain who stays a villain throughout is Rumpelstiltskin, who goes back and forth so many times that it’s impossible to keep track.

Just a quick context: Hook during his solo song was some kind of a villain, because it’s a song from the past. The present Hook, aka Killian, had his redemption arc and married his true love - Snow White and Prince Charming’s daughter, aka Emma. And amazing reaction, by the way!!

Hello Matthew! I'm glad you liked this musical episode. I would HIGHLY recommend watching the full show. I used to watch it with my mother when I was younger, and it's still one of my favourite shows today.

3:34 yeah basically, this one is hard, because in terms of the story…this episode happens almost at the end of the “first Gen of OUAT” before the completely new characters come to the screen and a big part as to why they are all singing and why is important later on. Is explain in the current timeline of the show…

Some details to help fill in the context: In this series, Rumpelstiltskin - the fellow who sews straw into gold and kidnaps babies - is involved in nearly every story somehow. He is the crocodile who took off Hook's hand. This is because Hook was banging his ex wife. Hook called him crocodile because he had scaly, gross skin like a lizard. Rumple was also the beast who kept Belle locked in a tower, the guy who supplied Dr. Frankenstein and Dr. Jekyll the ingredients to finish their experiments, and the guy who built the house on the waterfall (you know, as in Pixar's Up). The Evil Queen, the Queen of Hearts, the Wicked Witch of the West, and Belle have all fallen in love with him. It's a weird, wild ride with him.

Once upon a time is so good!!! I have seen all the 7 seasons at least 6 times!!! Hook and rumple definitely the best characters!!

I will say, Emma's Theme, although it's super spoil-y, is an epic song in this episode that you should take a look at. Gives me chills.

This is one of my all time favorite shows! Definitely recommend watching more of it. The musical episode always throws me off because it is so different from what the show typically is.

This is one of my favorite musical episodes in any show I’ve ever watched!

Basically the show showed how people aren’t just good or evil, they all are a mix of both and have a chance to choose their own actions. Plus, a lof of flashback. And the crocodile was just an expression, cause yh. Also a very complicated family three…

I have watched every episode of this series and boy can I tell you that it is just a rollercoaster of emotions. I very much enjoyed it😁😊

I never finished watching OUAT and now I low key wanna go back and watch it all over again. I took a break after they introduced Elsa because I was so shocked by her presence that I needed a break for my sanity lmao, and then my poor memory and attention span made sure I never actually resumed watching. From what I remember it was pretty good though. The weaving together of all the stories was super cool, and I particularly remember thinking that Rumpelstiltskin being the Beast was neat, but I didn’t realise he was ALSO the Crocodile in Captain Hook’s story!

I would love to explain this show, omg. There's so many things in it that make the musical episode alone so confusing HAHA. I highly recommend watching it (it's 7 seasons). I have seen it too many times and absolutely loved your reactions to the music

The Corcodile is indeed the dark one and it's also a nickname as well cause of his dry scaly skin. The crocodile in the show is rumpelstiltskin.

So the show has flash-backs to when they were in a fairytale world, and you slowly uncover how they came to be in the real world. It's actually a _really_ intriguing plot, expertly interweaving _so_ many different fairytales into one tale. It's epic!

I recommend watching the actual series, even though it’s like 7 seasons and the episodes last last 40mins each, it’s absolutely worth it

The actor who plays hook actually broke his foot during the scene and pushed through to the end of the song. In a few episodes after, the actor wears a boot due to the injury.

9:22 this happens in the current timeline of the show… Emma is Snow White and Charming’s daughter Killiang (misspelled sorry) is Captian Hook, now Emma’s husband And this all happens during their wedding in the “real world” in the town that the evil queen (Regina) created called Storybrook (probably also misspelled)

"What is that?" That is the dark cuse it transports and often erases identity from people.

I realy love this musical episode ❤

OUAT's plot is pretty chaotic, so I don't if I should recommend to watch the pilot, a summary.... OR A OUT OF CONTEXT VIDEO

The idea of the Evil Queen picking up a cat and just ripping it in half 😂😂😂

"Should I watch it?" Well that depends Matthew, will you be reacting to it? Because id love another reason to watch the show again. God its so good!

The dark one is rumpelstiltskin, and his nickname is crocodile because when he became the dark one, his skin turned rough and leathery like a crocodile, and it kinda made him look like one too

Emma, Snow White and Prince Charmings daughter ended up with Captain Hook, who is also Emma’s son’s father’s mother’s ex

I looove Once Upon a Time, that's one of my favorite sries of all time ! You need to watch it. And those songs are 💫 which fairy tails ? hmmmmm... Welle all of them ? 😅 The Emma's one and Evil Queen/Charmigs' were missing. And Emma is the main character, played by Jennifer Morrison. Love your reactions btw

This show is great very much recommend watching it from the beginning the first season is just incredible and the different developments are so good throughout the whole show

so a basic rundown of once upon a time: the evil queen set a curse that traps most fairytale characters (herself included) in soemthing of a status state of shitty living in a town in real world brooklyn. She adopts a son, who happens to be snow and charming's grandsom, bc they sent their daughter through a magic wardrobe to save her and via prophecy the rest of them... and he finds his real mom after learnign froma book taht he is surrouned by fairytale characters. while the show goes on for far to long, the family building, character development, and world buildigng and means of utilizing villians/heroes in ways you wouldn't expect, adn the unique ways the blended fairytales together or put fun spins on them (for instance Rumplestilskin is also the beast from beauty and the beast, amidst other "villians" in other stories... it's fun. rumpelstilskin is even teh crocodile hook is after)

I was a bit hesitant to watch it when the first season came out, but with the release of second (or third?) i decided to give it a chance. I never even once regretted watching it and it is still one of my absolute favourite shows of all time.

Every time I see someone react to this episode without knowing anything about the show is absolute chaos because if you haven’t seen the show or know the basic concepts, almost nothing makes sense. If you have watched the show, it’s hard to follow it even if you’ve seen every single episode up to this point. Jumping in at this point is like trying to play a video game at level 120 after watching one person play level 1 for the first time.

This was the only musical episode of once upon a time. Also the evil queen was terrorizing granny ( the old lady with the blanket) Because in the scene before that you didn't see her and other characters were singing happy songs lol so that's why she tore up the blanket.

"I dont know which fairytales this blends" ... all of them 😂

I was planning on explaining the plot but this show is maybe the hardest to explain to someone who didn't watch it out of all shows. Even those who watch it can get lost if they don't pay attention 😂

this will forever be my comfort show. severely underrated

you've GOT TO watch this show! it's so good and it makes the character seem like real ppl not just stories. it kind of goes of the premise that all ppl are not evil , it is just their experiences that made them the way they are. i love it so much! i know you only watch/listen to music but i would love to see you reacting to shows and movies , especially this one!

I love Once Upon a Time and your reaction to the musical episode has made my day.

As someone who's seen all of OUAT (even the mess of a seventh season) I found your confusion amusing and very entertaining. The songs in the very fairy-tale-esc locations (Powerful Magic, Love Doesn't Stand A Chance, Revenge, Wicked Always Wins) take place in flashbacks to show the lives of the characters before the time of the show. We see Snow and Charming set on defeating Evil Queen, Evil Queen being evil, Hook hating the Dark One and wanting to kill him for killing the woman Hook loved (Dark One is actually a person with grey bumpy skin like a crocodile... also is Rumplestiltskin or Rumple aka the straw-into-gold guy and that's a story for another day), and Wicked Witch of the West (named Zelena) hating her sister the Evil Queen. Happy Beginning and a song you didn't react to called Emma's Theme sung entirely by Emma (Jennifer Morrison) and a really good song vocal range take place in Storybrooke aka the modern world (our world) in present day. The ending of Happy Beginning is the curse of the ultimate villain the Black Fairy being released on the citizens of Storybrooke and transporting them to some other location (and the possibilty of erasing the memories of the characters). They knew it was coming, and they wanted Emma and Hook to have their wedding before this curse took all of their happiness away.

You need to watch more of this series cause it's amazing, whether you do episode reacts or out of context I think I can speak for all of us when I say we would be over-joyed.

Crocodile is a metaphor for a magic person

Ok but now we need OUAT out of context reactions 😂

I remember in middle school and beginning of High School (I'm in my 2nd year of college rn) I was OBSESSED with this series. I didn't watch all of it, mainly because I got bored around the 4th season, but from what I watched it was very interesting XD. I would highly recommend giving it a watch lol

I WASNT EXPECTING THIS?? BUT ONCE UPON A TIME FOR THE WINN🗣️🗣️

The Dark One is also known as Rumplestiltskin, AKA Mr. Gold, AKA(by Killian) The Croc. OUAT weaved all the character's back stories together making for some cool combinations and complications through the story.

So, the basic story is that the Evil Queen put a curse on all fairytale characters, and now they're in a town in the real world and don't remember who they used to be. (There's a lot more going on though, and it gets pretty complex with all these characters and what their relationships are.) It's really cool, cause it gives most fairytales a spin you wouldn't expect. Also, the villains don't always stay evil, they often have reasons why they act like that, and even the good guys aren't always good. I love that and it's one of my favorite shows.^^ There's also a lot of flashbacks from the time when they lived in the forest of fairytales, which is when you see them in the costumes and stuff. These backstories always tie in neatly with the stuff going on in the present. Hook just calls the Dark One a crocodile. And yeah, he did really bad things to Hook.

Once upon a time was really good with the queen and the story making gray areas and unclear lines around characters we previously knew. I love how confused it made you that snow stole the queens true love. It's fantastic.

Hook too! hook became my favorite character but I had a couple "Villain's" as my favorite by the end.

If you watch the show, without spoiling TOO much - there are a few villains who get redeemed. There are actually 3 redeemed villains in "A Happy Beginning", one of which is, well, the groom as you noticed.

"What fairy tales?" ALL OF THEM. EVERY. SINGLE. ONE.

For reference, the old lady in the evil queen's song, that was the grandmother from red riding hood's story.

8:01 oh it IS way darker than you thought. there was a lot of ripping hearts out of chests and crushing them in front of their loved ones.

You do have the musical episode of Flash but Grant, Melissa and Darren were all on Glee. Jesse was in Rent on stage. Jeremy is known for his singing and John was in musical theatre, released albums and toured.

you really have to watch the show to understand. Emma is snow and charming's daughter, and Killian Jones is Hook's name.

Rumpelstiltskin is the dark one/ crocodile. The dark magic made his skin green and it kinda looks like he has scales, therefore crocodile. Rumpelstiltskin cut off hook's hand.

So to explain Regina Mills’ motives, here are the basics. Regina (to-be Evil stepmother) fell in love with a stable boy, but is ordered to marry a king she doesn’t want to. Her mother Cora Mills (Queen of hearts) forces her to marry and kills the stables boy, her true love. Regina is devastated. However Snow White, the king’s child, had found out about Regina’s love for the stable boy. She tells Cora and is the reason Cora kills the stable boy. This creates her to be evil to Snow and Regina kills the king and goes on a hunt to kill Snow White. She enlist the help of Rumpelstiltskin to learn magic and Prince Charming to find and kill Snow White, but charming falls in love with Snow.

The guy with the hook hand in the last song is actually Captain Hook. He was originally a villain in the show but he had a redemption arc and became a good person. Also, Jennifer Morrison, whose character he kisses and gets married to, is actually Snow White's daughter. There were a lot of times in the show where people were frozen in time due to curses or other happenings, and it causes a lot of weird dynamics where parents and children could be the same age or other weird things like that lol. Also, the dark smoke at the end is one of these curses. There are a multitude of curses in the show and each one did a different thing. Here's a list of their names: The Dark One's Curse (Plague's the dark one) Sleeping Curse (Eternal sleep and trapped in a dream netherworld) The Dark Curse (Cast By The Evil Queen, took everyone to a land without magic, aka our world, and gave them false memories and lives, and trapped them in time for 28 years) The Dark Curse (Cast by Snow White and Prince Charming, returned everyone to a land without magic and took away one year of memories due to the Wicked Witch messing with it) The Curse of Shattered Sight (Cast by the Snow Queen and caused everyone to only see the worst in others and fight each other to death) The Dark Curse again lol (Cast by Emma Swan, aka Snow White's daughter, which once again returned everyone to a land without magic and took away a couple weeks of their memories) The Black Curse (cast by the Black Fairy, took away almost everyone back to the fairytale realms and trapped Emma Swan and her son in a land without magic, as well as a few others and gave them false memories and caused the fairytale realms to start being erased over time) The Dark Curse AGAIN (Cast By Regina who was being forced to do it by Drizella, Cinderella's stepsister, who was being manipulated by Mother Gothel (lol) which brought everyone to a land without magic but to a city this time and gave them false memories and lives once again and also took them back in time like 18 years I believe)

You should watch Once Upon a Time. It's a roller coaster ride of a show. Hook is one of the best characters btw. They have a bunch of Disney, and some not Disney characters. It's a fun ride through the whole thing, and there's a good deal of twists and turns in the story.

I'm so confused on why they're singing and I’m also spoiling myself since I'm “watching the show”😭 It's the fact that you didn’t understand that the stuff in the back with the Wicked Witch is related to the Wizard of Oz… Matthew, the Wizard of OZ!

Once Upon a Time is a great show. Emma is the child of Snow White and Prince Charming and Killian is Captain Hook.

During ‘happy beginning’ in was just sitting wait for him to relize that Killian has a hook!! And then he did and I died 😂

Short Explanation/ Brief context: This show has 7 seasons, and 7 storyarcs. The beginning story arc: All the fairy tale characters u have heard of as a child (Disney ones) combined into 1 universe with multiple realms and a sometimes much darker take on it. Protagonist family is " the Charmings": Snow White, Prince Charming(David), (their daughter)- Emma Swan, and (Emma's son/Snow & David's grandson) Henery. The show(especially the first few seasons) goes back and forth between the past in the main fairytale realm(The Enchanted Forest) and the present in a cursed town called Storybrooke in the regular world(our world). The flashbacks are to explain the curse itself and who these characters were before the curse. The protagonist family branches out, and becomes very complex. PS: That black smoke at the end of "A Happy Beginning" was another curse.

"I'm wondering if it's like a curse?" Oh, my sweet summer child... Anyway, you didn't include it in the video, but my favorite song is Emma's Theme. Even though her voice isn't as strong as the rest, the music for it literally is that character's leitmotif, so to hear that music theme for 6 years and then to hear Emma put words to it gave me such goosebumps the first time I heard it.

Star Trek strange new worlds also has a musical episode that is really good! The show isn’t really something you usually react to, but it’s still really good. “How would that feel”, “I’m the X”, “Status report”, and “We are one” are some of my favorites from the show. It would be great to see you react to that. This video was also great as usual

So the characters that the Evil Queen is dancing around in her song are actually supporting characters in the show as well as well known fairy tale characters. The men in the mines were the seven dwarves, the older man and the kid were Geppetto and Pinocchio after he became a real boy, and the old woman was Red Riding Hood's grandmother.

As a fan of Ouat who’s currently doing a rewatch I found his reactions and him trying to puzzle everything out which him very limited knowledge really fucking hilarious. Yes, The Dark One is Hook’s Crocodile… but he’s also Rumplestiltskin (who is also the Beast to Belle’s Beauty)

Hook's song is my favorite out of the bunch. Not sure how many times I've listened to it (and the rest) over the years. If you're covering musical episodes, I'd love to see Psych the Musical's songs (basically, a musical movie based off a non-music TV show).

I absolutely love Once Upon A Time! And I would love to see you react to full episodes :)

And to the answer of your question, which fairytales it blends all of them, all of them

Which fairytale. All of them 😂😂

It’s an incredibly interesting format for a show, it takes place in the modern world and also in the “fairytale” world. Characters usually have one or two identities across both worlds. I’m not usually a fairytale guy, but this show really hooked me after watching the pilot one night.

Fun fact 😎 during the filming of "Revenge is gonna be mine" the actor who plays Killian (Captain Hook) actually broke his foot during this and still danced and sang through the pain!

The Dark One/The Crocodile/Rumplestiltskin, tends to be the root of most evil within this show from what I remember.

What is funny is that singing curse was only in Enchanted Forest. Wicked WItch was in the Oz so she wasn't forced to sing. She chose to

2:58 I’m in love with them as a couple. They’re married in real life. Josh Dallas is phenomenal. Ginnifer Goodwin is sensational. Also, I highly recommend watching the episode BUT keep in mind that you’ll get completely lost on how the family tree works. 😂 The show is one of my favs and is a must watch. I love how they twist the various stories too.

Captain Killian Jones (Hook) started out as a villain but throughout the story he slowly becomes a hero after he met Emma Swan and they slowly fall in love. Emma Swan is the daughter of Snow White (Mary Margret) and Prince Charming (David). When Emma was a baby, her father put Emma in a magical wardrobe to protect her from The Evil Queen's curse. The smoke at the end of Happy Beginning was from the Black Fairy, if you want to get more context I recommend watching the show. I used to watch Once Upon A Time with my parents growing up. The Wicked Witch (Zelena) and the Evil Queen (Regina) are sisters and they were really close until their mother makes them forget. Like I said at the beginning, Captain Hook was all about revenge until what happened in the song Happy Beginning. The villain Hook was talking about the Dark One, you should watch the show so you know who the Dark One is. The Dark One Captain Hook was talking about was none other than Rumplestiltskin himself. A Dark One is a dark magical entity resided in all the Dark Ones, they're very evil. I hope you watch the show, I loved it growing up.

Long-haired Snow, Evil Queen Regina, bad Hook, old costumes -> in the Enchanted Forest (fairytale land) Short-haired Snow, nice Regina, nice Hook (in love with Emma), usual clothes -> in Storybrooke (real world) Also the old lady was Granny from Little Red Riding Hood (which also is not just a normal girl😅 there's just sooo much going on)

Mathew has to to react to an episode of Once Upon A Time without context!! Would probably be the most confusing 40 minutes of his life😂

8:33, she’s her stepmother but she blames Snow for getting her beloved murdered before she married Snow’s father
