In the season premiere episode, Henry leaves Storybrooke in search of his own story. Years later in another realm, he encounters a troubled Cinderella, changing the trajectory of his quest forever. When Cinderella's evil step-mother, Lady Tremaine, poses a threat, Henry discovers that following his heart will require him to make more difficult choices than he ever could have imagined. Years later, a young Lucy finds a disillusioned Henry at his home in Seattle, determined to make him remember his true self in order to defeat the curse afflicting the fairytale characters of Hyperion Heights.
Meanwhile, cast member Lana Parrilla revealed that her character is very refreshing and different in the new chapter. According to her, the creative team is still discovering about Roni and her role in Henry's life.
"I'm no longer in pantsuits. I'm in denim and rock T-shirts. When we meet her, this other version of Regina, she's working in a bar. She's a bar owner. She's a little rough around the edges... This version feels really different. She's no longer in charge. We've always seen Regina in charge, and then she redeemed herself, but this Regina is something else. I'm having a blast playing her," the actress told Entertainment Weekly.
