The anticipated TV series "Once Upon A Time" season 5 has finally premiered on Sunday. As expected, the show was filled with surprises, intense action and suspense.

1. The episode's opening features a young Emma sneaking into a movie theater showing "The Sword in The Stone," she was ushered by her second cousin who warned her not to do bad things in particular, removing the Excalibur from the stone. As MTV puts it, she should not do so because probably Arthur is evil or Organ Morgan le Fay will be released. Arthur successfully pulls out the sword, but the tip of Excalibur turned into the Dark One's dagger and he is now on the venture of finding it to heal his kingdom.
2. Emma wanted to find Merlin to free her from the curse of the dagger, she tracks the Will-O-The Wisp that leads her to Merida. The two agreed to help each other, they will find the wisp for Merida to bring it back to their kingdom and save his brothers and she will help Emma get to Merlin, but it turned out that only one of them can use the wisp, so Emma had to betray Merida. Emma tracks Merida at the Hill of Stones and Rumple encouraged her to steal Merida's heart. Merida fought back but loses, Emma got her heart and was about to crush it when Hook and the company stop her, eventually Emma shoves Merida's heart back into her chest.
