Is next season’s villain someone we already know on the show?
KITSIS: Can’t say.

If the Author (Patrick Fischler) is able to rewrite stories, might we see an alternate timeline?
KITSIS: Can’t say.

Will there be another time jump?

HOROWITZ: Not this year.
KITSIS: We saw her as Lacey and boy did people have opinions on that.

Does Belle really love Will (Michael Socha)?
KITSIS: I would say that’s a rebound. Even fairy tale characters have rebounds, people.

Might Belle’s mom (Frances O’Connor) have a connection to an Author?
HOROWITZ: Belle’s mom is a character that we love and we’re not seeing more of this year, but never say never. We’d love to revisit her.

Will we find out who Killian’s parents are?
HOROWITZ: Someday, yes.

Will we ever find out how August (Eion Bailey) knew about Neal (Michael Raymond-James)?
HOROWITZ: I sure hope so. I feel like we’ve hinted at it in an indirect way, but we’ll probably get more explicit about it down the line.

Will anyone die (either temporarily or permanently) in the season 4 finale?
KITSIS: Both. Yeah. Decipher that one!
