Thoughts

It's been a few years since I started to watch this show and last watched the previous season. I think it was on Hulu at that time. Now it is on Netflix.

Leonard (J.K. Simmons) and Diandra Stiltskin (Joey Lauren Adams) return for a second appearance. They were first seen in 1.06 Taylor Stiltskin Sweet Sixteen.

This is a good one. There might be better episodes out there but I really enjoyed this one.
