As they navigate the dangerous landscape of the Queen's domain, Emma and Regina begin to unravel the mystery of what happened to this alternate realm. They discover that the Queen has trapped almost all of the people of Storybrooke in the mirror world, and that the only reason they are not trapped themselves is because they were touched by the dark curse.
