I did not see the twist coming in "Red Handed" so kudos to the show.
"Dreamy" just confused me. A lot. I mean, I think it even confused me more than "Hat Trick." Was the point that star-crossed lovers are just doomed and there are no happy endings? That fraternal love should always trump romantic love? IDK, any reading I could get from Dreamy and the pixie whose name I've completely forgotten seems to fly in the face of the themes of every other episode ever. But I love Dreamy/Grumpy/Leroy and his friendship with Mary Margaret, so it's okay :)
I also love that the "I forgo love and embrace killing only to be brought back to myself by someone's sacrifice" role belongs to Snow and the "I put myself in harm's way for love to passively help my loved one" role belongs to James.
See, I gave that plot the side-eye because it came off to me as "I'm a raging psycho-bitch without a strong man to keep me in line." And what with the Queen appearing to have driven Snow away and become Evil because Snow 'took away the one person the Queen loved' there's too much "Women are crazy unless they have some cock" for me.
Oh David. How are you so sucky in Storybrooke when James is so awesome?

The curse, clearly :)
