Once Upon a Time takings tonight for its 7th season , during which most of the original characters are go and we ’ve leave Storybrooke for goodness . It ’s a recipe for a powerful big passel , but sports fan get it on that ’s just par for the course . Once Upon a Time is one of the wackiest shows on TV , thanks to the way it pulls characters from fay tarradiddle and literature ( most of them Disney adapted ) and discombobulate them in a liquidiser , result in some in truth odd pairings . Here are the family relationship from the show — quixotic , platonic , genetic , etc.—that would impress even the most inventive devotee fic author .
1) Mulan was in a love triangle with Prince Phillip and Sleeping Beauty
The legendary warrior may have save China and won the heart of a captain — but in Once Upon a Time , Mulan only had eyes for a prince … and possibly his fiancée . In the second time of year of the series , Mulan and Sleeping Beauty ’s clotheshorse Prince Phillip were travel buddies after she and Belle managed to alter him back after he was transform into a beast called Yaoguai . While everyone else in Storybrooke was sustain a curse , they were stuck back in the Enchanted Forest trying to discover and ignite up Sleeping Beauty , Prince Phillip ’s one true love . Only one job : Mulan herself was in love with Phillip .
At first , this meant Mulan watched like a lovesick puppy as Phillip and Aurora made googly eyes at each other , but then Phillip died ( do n’t care , he came back , end entail nothing on Once Upon a Time ) . While he was gone , though , his meant Mulan and Aurora got to spend more clock time together … and here ’s where things get a bit more complicated . While Mulan was never confirmed to be rummy , it ’s heavily implied that she spring up feelings for Aurora . It could be she was in erotic love with both of them , or her feelings had shift from one to the other . In any instance , it did n’t weigh . Aurora and Phillip had a baby together , and Mulan terminate up as a free lance for Merida .
2) Merida from Brave’s archenemy was King Arthur, who was admittedly a huge jerk
King Arthur might just the biggest motherfucker in Once Upon a Time chronicle . He ordered one of his servants to commit suicide , and drugged Guinevere so that she would forget she detest his guts and would serve as his complete married woman and queen . Oh yeah , and he murdered the father of Merida . You recognize , the daughter from Brave . That ’s why her entire story arc in the fifth time of year was dedicated to bringing Arthur down by any substance necessary . But she had one obstruction : Prince Charming , who chop-chop became Arthur ’s undecomposed bro . They even went joust together in a clean - up truck ! Trust me , it ’s even crazier than it sounds .
deplorably , Merida did n’t deliver the goods in vote out Arthur after he was catch by the champion , because she doltishly permit Sleepy , one of the Seven Dwarves , guard his cellular phone ( add up on , girl ) . But it all worked out in the final stage : Hades showed up and break Arthur ’s neck , leave his dead dead body on a span . subsequently on , we learned that Arthur had democratically grab control of the Underworld from Cruella de Vil and ruled it for 50 years . Hopefully that suicide guy is cool with it !
3) Dr. Frankenstein and Dr. Jekyll taught science to children together
This is the material fan fable was made for . Two of the heavy evil geniuses of our prison term , teaching first grader . During an episode in the sixth season , we interpret Dr. Frankenstein and Dr. Jekyll band together to make more of Jekyll ’s blood serum , and Snow White receive the theme to have them learn science to diminutive little children . Can you imagine what that object lesson plan would ’ve looked like ?
Technically we do n’t actually see them instruct the division , but Snow ’s word is law so my belief is that it damn well pass off before Jekyll sound off the bucket . That said , not showing these two merge beakers in front of a bunch of six - year - olds might be one of the biggest crimes Once Upon a Time has ever perpetrate — other than killing off Mr. Hyde as a villain , which I could go on and on about .
4a) Snow White’s daughter and the Evil Queen share a child together
Ah , the relationship that part it all ( if you want to set any Oncer ’s heart aflutter , just mussitate the words Swan Queen ) . When Emma Swan first arrived in Storybrooke at the behest of her biological child , Henry Mills , there was one char who was not glad about the reunification : Regina Mills , Henry ’s adoptive mother . Only this was n’t a normal custody struggle , since Emma Swan was the long - lost daughter of Snow White and Prince Charming , and Regina was the Evil Queen … and Snow ’s stepmother .
Over the years , Emma and Regina grew from mortal enemies to close friends , and willing Centennial State - mother . It ’s a happy ending , but it ’s also unbelievably awkward , given that ( technically ) Regina is both Henry ’s mother and dance step - nan . And most of Henry ’s grandparent are the same age as his parent . Speaking of which …
4b) That child’s grandfather is Rumplestiltskin
Henry ’s father , Neil , was the Logos of Rumplestiltskin ( different spelling than the original story)—you know , the guy who did n’t wish when masses know how to pronounce his name . In Once Upon a Time , Rumple is eff as the Dark One , i.e. the physical host of a obscure trick simply known as the Darkness . As a result , he ’s got standoff with everybody , because he ’s really good at build hand . He was Cinderella ’s Fairy Godmother , he help Dr. Jekyll become Mr. Hyde , and he was married to Belle . That ’s just for starters .
And the person Rumple actually instruct to turn husk into gold ? Why , that was the Evil Queen ’s female parent , Cora , who also pass off to be the Queen of Hearts in Wonderland . Confused yet ? Well , not as much as you ’re about to be .
4c) …and Rumple’s dad is Peter Pan
That ’s proper , Rumplestiltskin ’s father is the boy who would n’t maturate up . If you ’re scratching your forefront wondering how a child who never reach pubescence could spawn an progeny who became the literal incarnation of duskiness , it ’s kinda - sorta - technically explain in the show . Basically , Rumple ’s adult Fatherhood made a peck with a Shadow to be turned into an adolescent again , vacate little Rumple in the process . Peter Pan then became the megalomaniacal lord of Neverland , tempting solitary boys to come to his island with his wizard genus Pan flute ( oh yeah , he ’s the Pied Piper , too ) and trapping them there for all timeless existence .
5) Hades dated the Wicked Witch of the West
Apart from Rumpelstiltskin and Belle , which will go down in history as the most toxic relationship ever shown on tv , Hades and Zelena is probably the risky couple Once Upon a Time has send ( so far ) . essentially , the Lord of the Underworld strike in love with the Wicked Witch of the West after they went on a quasi - date together to go rip out the Scarecrow ’s brain , which include sharing a bicycle and rolling around laughing in the leaves ! It was his feeling that loving her would make it so he could habituate the Olympus Crystal , which is a thing that I ’m not going to bother getting into because it really does n’t matter .
underworld ended up recreating the Underworld so that it would look like Storybrooke , because he thought it would make Zelena happy — though it ’s really because the budget on this show was like $ 35 per episode by that head . And the whole thing ended with Hades tragically fail and Zelena mourning the deprivation of her “ True Love , ” even though they ’d only known each other for a collective total of , like , two hours and most of it was spent falling off a bicycle .
6) Captain Hook and Princess Jasmine sailed together on the Nautilus from 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea
lay off me if you ’ve hear this one ! Once Upon a Time is known for how many time it brings random pouf tale character together for no dependable reasonableness , but season six had one of the craziest crossovers I ’ve ever witnessed . During the time of year , Captain Hook was transported to the Enchanted Forest via the Nautilus ( with Captain Nemo ) to keep him separated from Emma , so Hook embarked on a seeking to return to her side . During this adventure , the Nautilus came across Aladdin and Jasmine . Then through the trick of wish ( because Aladdin was a jinnee ) they all ended up on an island where they encountered none other than Ariel , one of Jasmine ’s good friends , who just happen to live on that very island with Prince Eric ! What are the odds ?
7) Emma banged one of the Flying Monkeys from The Wizard of Oz
As unearthly as Hades and the Wicked Witch pairing was , that was nothing compare to that clock time when Zelena convinced Emma to descend in love with a monkey . After the third midseason break , we found Emma and Henry living happily in New York City , their storage of Storybrooke having been efface . She also got a young man ; his name was Walsh and he was super precious . After go out him for eight months , he even proposed ! Things were looking brilliant for Emma .
Too bad Walsh was actually one of the Wicked Witch Zelena ’s Flying Monkeys who was turned into a human and sent to descry on Emma for … reasons ? It ’s never quite clear . In any case , Emma get hold out the truth after drinking a potion of turn a loss memories and Walsh let on his unfeigned monkey form . Everything worked out for the good , but I ca n’t ideate Emma ever recovered from her round of accidental zooerasty . However , none of those comparability to what has to be my favorite fan fabrication conjugation of all clip … .
8) Frozen’s Anna taught Prince Charming how to swordfight
Behold , the eight greatest words in the English language . Princess Anna , the girl from Frozen , is the one who apprise Snow White ’s Prince Charming in the graphics of swordplay . That is something outside the realms of both reality and fantasy , yet here we are . And somehow , it still manage to pale in equivalence to the actual reason why : So Prince Charming could vote out Little Bo Peep . What is this show ? !
You see , Prince Charming did n’t start out as a prince . He was actually a farmer diagnose David , and his twin brother had been select to be the prince , so David spend most of his fourth dimension with his mother growing stuff . trivial Bo Peep , who was essentially a mob gaffer , came by and demanded tribute money or else she ’d enslave David and his mammy forever with her witching Shepard ’s Crook . So Anna , who was temporarily crashing at David ’s seat , resolve to teach him to blade competitiveness so he could champion himself against Mob Peep . And it worked ! So yeah , if you ’re ever inquire how Prince Charming was able-bodied to save Snow White from the Evil Queen … it ’s all because of Anna from Frozen .
