" Love, don't get me wrong, I do love living in the house of the woman who once used me to do her dirty work, but don't you think it's time we get our own place?", Killian asks as he strolls through the harbor with his wife and her dog.
" I don't know if you've noticed, but people aren't exactly moving out of Storybrooke. They're aren't any open houses happening anytime soon", Scarlett says as she grabs his hand, " For the time being, let's just focus on us".
She leans up to peck his lips, but from the corner of her eye sees Robin walking towards them. She groans, but turns to face him.
" I'm sorry to interrupt, but I need your help", Robin says, " It's Marian".
" Who's Marian?" Scarlett asks.
" She's... my wife. The woman Emma brought," He says.
All of a sudden, it clicks in Scarlett's mind. Marian was meant to die in the hands of the Evil Queen, which is why Rowland doesn't have a mother. Up until now.
" I'm sorry. I didn't know who else to turn to, and I... can't find your mother", Robin says.
" Well, that's because she doesn't want to be found", Scarlett says.
" What do you need, mate?" Killian asks.
" Marian is... freezing. We were at a meeting in the Mayor's office and she just collapsed. I don't know what's wrong with her", Robin says, " Look, you have every reason to be angry with me. I don't blame you for that... but if you could just find it in your heart to help her, I would be very grateful. You know what's it's like to be married to someone, and you know what it's like to want to save the person you love".
Scarlett sighs, but waves her hands and transports them to the mayor's office.
" How is she?", Robin asks.
" Not good. She's getting colder", David says.
"Scarlett, thank you for coming", Mary says.
" Don't thank me till I've done something", Scarlett says as she walks towards Marian.
" If you try to--", David starts.
" I'm not gonna kill her, Shepard", Scarlett says, " My mother was supposed to do that in the past".
" Scarlett", Killian warns.
" What? You know it's true", She says.
" Is there anything you can do?", Robin asks.
" This is strong magic. I don't know if I could stop it, but maybe I can slow it down", Scarlett says.
" How is someone stronger than you? You're the Dark One's daughter", Mary says.
Scarlett tilts her head with an unamused expression on her face.
" This is a type of magic I am unfamiliar with," She says.
And sure enough, the savior herself walks in with an icy friend
" What happened?", Emma asks.
" Perhaps you should ask your new friend", Scarlett says., " After all, it was her monster that attacked Marian".
" Well, do be fair, Emma and Grant did provoke the beast", Killian says.
" Who's Grant?" Scarlett asks.
" He's my... something. We met in the system," Emma says.
" And why is he here?" Scarlett asks.
" Because... I don't know," Emma says, to which Scarlett rolls her eyes.
" This isn't my magic. Someone else did this", Elsa says.
" I suppose you'd like us to just let it go?" Scarlett asks.
" You can trust me. If she says it was someone else, it was", Emma asks.
" No offense, Miss Swan, but I don't trust you. Actually, scratch the no offense", Scarlett says.
" So, how do we break the spell?", Henry asks.
" The only way to cure a freezing spell is an act of true love", Elsa says.
" True love's kiss", Scarlett says as she crosses her arms., " Isn't that just dandy".
" Well, then there's no time to loose", Robin says, then leans down to kiss Marian... but it doesn't work, " What's wrong? Why isn't it working?".
" I've seen this once before, when Frederick was turned to gold", David says.
" Who the hell is Frederick?", Emma asks.
" Long story", Henry says.
" So, the cold is acting as a barrier? Is there nothing we can do?", Robin asks.
" Well, every curse is different. I suggest bringing my mother in on this one", Scarlett sighs.
Emma tries to speak, but gets cut off by the princess.
" Sorry, Emma, but I'm not helping you. Elsa might be the one with ice powers... but you have no idea how cold I can be."
Scarlett and Killian walk out of the mayor's office with Hook trailing behind like a lost puppy.
