Ep 9. Save Henry

In the ninth episode of Once Upon a Time's third season, titled "Save Henry," the central characters of the show are focused on their mission to save Henry, who has been kidnapped by the evil Pan.

The episode opens with Regina, Emma, Snow and Charming mourning Henry's apparent death in the last episode, but soon they realize he may still be alive and in danger. They turn to Tinkerbell, who reveals that she knows where Pan is keeping him captive.

Meanwhile, in Neverland, Henry is being held captive by Pan, who has convinced him that he is the only person who truly cares about him. Pan is using a magical heart-shaped stone to control Henry's thoughts and emotions, and has convinced him to turn against his family.

As the Storybrooke residents prepare to rescue Henry, they realize they will need the help of Hook, who has been working with Pan to find his own way off the island. Emma is hesitant to work with Hook again, but she ultimately agrees to his terms – he will help them rescue Henry, but they must help him escape Neverland as well.

With Hook's help, the group is able to sneak into Pan's camp and locate Henry. However, things take a turn for the worse when it is revealed that Pan's true plan is to use the heart-shaped stone to swap bodies with Henry, thus rendering himself immortal.

The group must come together to save Henry and defeat Pan once and for all. The tension is high as they engage in a fierce battle, but with the help of Tinkerbell's pixie dust, they are able to overcome Pan's magic and save Henry.

After Henry is rescued, the group must make a hasty escape from Neverland before Pan can retaliate. As they sail away from the island, Hook decides to stay behind, revealing that he plans to continue his mission to find a way off the island on his own.

Back in Storybrooke, the group must face the aftermath of their battle with Pan. They learn that Peter Pan was actually Rumplestilskin's father, and that his plan was to use the heart of the truest believer to become immortal. Meanwhile, Henry is reunited with his family, but it is clear that his traumatic experience in Neverland will have lasting effects on him.

Overall, "Save Henry" is a thrilling and action-packed episode that further explores the complex relationships between the show's characters. It sets the stage for the rest of the season, as the group must face new challenges and enemies in their quest for a happy ending.
