Actress Amy Manson previewed Merida’s hidden-agenda in an interview with TV Line. “You’ll see it cut to flashback as to why and find out who introduced them and what Mulan has taught Merida through her life and especially with fighting, in that sense, how to become the warrior she is”. It must be a ploy to force Mr. Gold to finally be the hero that they need him to be. “After what your daughter did to me, letting me out is the least that you could do”.

“As soon as that heart gets ripped out again, Merida is forming her own plan, which she hopes in this episode that Gold will join her on”.
A few sword fight lessons in the woods haven’t been doing the trick, and with the clock ticking down on saving her kidnapped brothers back home, Merida must up the ante to see what Rumple is really made of in episode 6 on Sunday (Nov. 1).
In a Camelot flashback, a chance encounter with Merlin, David, Hook and Belle gives Merida new hope in her quest to save her brothers from the usurping clans of DunBroch. Merida takes Belle on this journey to DunBroch, and Belle ends up saying, “Yes, I’ll come and help you”. So, how much of Merida’s world are we going to get to explore this week?Amy: All of it! In an interview with TVLINE, Manson talked about how Emma’s powers may not have total control over Merida’s will.
We’re going to be meeting her parents.
In the all-new episode of ABC’s “Once Upon a Time”, the real meaning of bravery will be tested as one of the characters faces his greatest fear. You’ll see DunBroch, you’ll find out why she needs Belle and specifically Belle over any other character from Storybrooke.
Throughout her journey, Merida will form a friendship with Belle, despite the two’s initial distrust over one another. She said that it has been fun to play this character who is unruly and wild, who is also full of life and quite animated. She does what’s right.
