Some new spoilers about Once Upon a Time have us excited, but worried – four episodes in, and this show and its characters have already captured the hearts of so many viewers! Read our predictions for who the spoiler is about, vote in the poll, and add your own thoughts in the comments!
The big spoiler that has us so worried is – and this should come as no surprise really, seeing as Once Upon a Time was created by the writers of Lost – that there’ll be a character death. Zap2It knows who it is, but they’re not saying, and the only clue we have is that they are “pretty shocked about it,” and the description for the November 27th episode, 1×07 ‘The Heart is a Lonely Hunter,’ which reads:
One of the town’s residents begins to remember their fairytale past, and Storybrooke mourns the loss of one of their own. Meanwhile, in the fairytale world that was, the Evil Queen attempts to find a heartless assassin to murder Snow White.
The way this description is worded seems to indicate that the death actually happens in 1×06, although it could happen in 1×07 as well – which would put the character in focus at great risk! We don’t yet know who 1×06 is about, only that it is entitled ‘The Shepherd,’ but the title of 1×07 seems to indicate that it is going to be Graham-centric (if you buy into the theory that he is indeed the Snow White huntsman).
So who’s gonna bite it? Here’s a prediction from Hypable writer Selina:
While I really hope I’m wrong, and am choosing to see the description of 1×07 as a good sign, I worry that the death is going to be Sheriff Graham. It’s mostly through elimination: the other characters are either too significant, or too irrelevant. Considering that this show is made by the people who wrote Lost, I expect there’ll be a few deaths along the way, and they’ve shown how ruthless they can be when Evil Queen offed her sweet old dad. I feel like Graham is the kind of character who could have been evil in the fairytale land (say he was the wolf), redeemed himself in Storybrooke and then died because his issues had been resolved – leaving Emma sad and more isolated than ever after their kiss. That said, please let me be wrong! I was so excited to see a relationship begin to develop between Graham and Emma, and it’d be such a waste to kill him off before that was explored more!
Now it’s your turn! Do you think it’ll be a major or a minor character? Vote and comment!
