This is for all you TWAU gamers out there that want to discuss episode 2 without spoiling it for anyone else. I got the episode! Hooray! I'll discuss all my thoughts in the main post below as spoilers are welcome in this thread.
Spoilers Below this line. You have been warned. I mean, if you haven't played yet then why are you even here?! Go play! If you don't give a shit about spoilers then... Welcome!
I have a new theory! If Crane was able to cast a spell to mind wipe everyone in the police station then maybe he could do a glamour spell! Maybe Lilly didn't glamour herself for look like Snow willingly! Maybe Crane forced her! He was so obsessed about her but he couldn't have the real thing so he had his own fake one to play with.
New theory! Maybe Lilly was desperate for glamour, but she didn't have the money for it. Crane offered to pay for it as he mentions the spell for the police department was 'expensive' therefore it may have been his doing. So he offered to pay for Lilly's glamour and promised to make her look beautiful as long as she agreed to make herself look like Snow White, which he gave her a picture for....
Unless this was already revealed in the game as something else and I'm just making assumptions over nothing.
Yep, I was making theories over nothing. Turns out Lilly was doing it for her job "lot of fucked up people in Fabletown".
*Exhales deeply* I love the smell of torture in the morning. To be honest I didn't torture Woody, even though it seemed that Crane of all people wanted me to do "whatever it takes". Make your fucking mind up Crane, do you want violence or not, or does it depend on who I arrest? Anyway, I was happy that Crane thought I made the right choice of arresting Woody even though some people didn't! Yep, looking at you the majority of people who arrestedKenny Dee! Looking at you! I'm also looking at Jack who also thought it was a bad idea, fuck you Jack!
Anyway, before I talk about Woody I'm gonna say that I liked Crane. He was being quiet nice in the car and I sympathised with him over Snow's death. I don't really hate him now, which is odd. So lets go back to Woody, I shared at smoke with him and some alcohol and just convinced him to talk by just talking with him. I was nice to him, cuz he's Woody, "my buddy". Of course, Bluebeard wasn't satisfied so he started beating Woody, I panicked and grabbed his arm and threw him against the wall and started strangling him when Snow walked in.
Snow's alive! Hooray! The game is still canon to the comics for some reason *shrugs*. So.... Holly's sister, Lilly, was copying her? Why? Getting herself to look like Snow. God knows she needed it... She wasn't much of a looker. No offence Lilly... Even though your dead. And you to Holly, no offence.
TJ! My favourite little Toad! I'm sorry about the shit you saw down at the East River, even though you sound like a girl, oh wait-
I haven't seen my game version of Gren, but I don't think he'll only have one arm in his human form.. It's best to keep a low profile, you know? I bet glamour can disguise lost limbs... Look how well it disguised Lilly! Damn... Well turns out he does have only one arm. And you know what? "I think it's fucking hilarious".
Poor Holly. The report on her sister just "slipped through the cracks" and now Lilly's dead. But Holly took it well, better than I thought she would. As for Jack.... He's an annoying asshole so I threw him out of the bar, I didn't need his corny, insensitive comments.
Georgie. He likes me since I'm "not afraid to be a complete bastard". As for the crowd control bat, I have to admit I enjoyed smashing some of his stuff, especially when I smashed the cigarette machine and a pack fell out and afterwards I picked it up and smoked one. Georgie wasn't amused as he paused from talking on the phone to give me a harsh glare. What can I say? Bigby likes to smoke and I was just like fuck it, can't pick up a cigarette pack without smoking one. I'm not a smoker myself, fuck that shit, but smoking probably doesn't affect Bigby cuz he's a Fable. "I don't know, fuck".
I also hit him with the bat when he wouldn't give me the fucking book. No regrets.
The little mermaid... What was he name? I don't even remember. She wanted me to pay her for an 'appointment'. I wasn't sure if she was talking about me 'doing' her or talking about telling me what she knew about investigation at my office. Or both. Either way, I still had money in my pocket and she wanted 150. I wasn't giving her money, I didn't pay Faith, I'm not paying her. I'm not paying prostitute (thank you google for helping me spell that word) for god knows what! Anyway, I got the key so what does it matter. Would've been a waste of money. How long are TTG gonna drag out these money choices anyway?
Beauty was working at the counter. That's her big secret.... Well that's anticlimactic. You sound a lot like a mature Clementine this episode, oh wait- And the fight with Beast seemed a bit disappointing from where I'm standing and felt forced as well. Also... That fight wouldn't have happened if he'd just listened to me- Bigby or Beauty! Bit ignorant. Come on, we were bros! No final Beast form? FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU-
Crane?! What the fuck you been doing man?! And I was starting to like you! You fucking monster! You're going down next episode! How dare you murder Mirror, he sounded like a British Kenny! Oh wait- My theory: BUT WAIT!
Maybe the lamp only grazed him, maybe some of the pieces of the mirror are still salvageable, he can be fixed as the frame is still intact! This can only mean.... KENNY CONFIRMED FOR SEASON 2! Wait, what? That's not right, I mean- MIRROR CONFIRMED FOR EPISODE 3! No really. Mirror is alive. Look at dis. www.telltalegames.com/community/discussion/58213/does-the-magic-mirror-die-when-smashed
Mirror has been broken many times, he is magic, he can mend himself. It just might take a while... Enough time for Crane to get away. Crane's reason for breaking Mirror so Bigby doesn't have much clue of where he is.
MIRROR CONFIRMED FOR EPISODE 3!
As for Crane, I don't think he's a murderer. He's a coward, instead of staying put and clearing his name he flees. He knows what he did was wrong and he knows that Bigby suspects him as a killer and he doesn't want to go down as a murderer.
No final-ish form for Bigby? It's been building up in the next time trailers so far, episode 1 next time and now episode 2 next time. I predict that this will keep building up until the final episode where Bigby finally snaps and turns into his final-ish form. The question is... What pushes him over the edge? We'll have to find out.
Those are my thoughts. Overall I thought the episode was quiet short, and I felt a bit let down as this is what I got from a 4 month wait? Well, I got TWAU at Christmas so it wasn't exactly a 4 month wait but you know. But you know what? I still enjoyed the episode. Just like season 2 episode 1, it had its flaws but I enjoyed it. I'm still pissed about a few things but yeah it was cool.
I've gone off topic in the main post, lol. Well, something is better than nothing. It's good that the episode finally came out.
