”Not too much cream, it makes you fat.”
The dwarves are using Sara as their own housemaid, which does not make them friends to her in this fairytale world. But they will probably still be allies to her, because when it comes to keeping her to do chores around the house, and selling her out to the Evil Queen, the dwarves most likely want to keep her. They are a lazy bunch after all, and as long as they have someone working to keep their house clean, everything is peachy with them. And Sara really wants to return to that world over and over? After being used as a maid like that, I would want to think twice before going back there. The power of the boner, I guess, because Sara just wants to go back because of the Prince and how good-looking he is.
Meanwhile, the Evil Queen is essentially a cannibal. She thought she was eating her daughter's liver and kidney, after the Huntsman said that he removed the organs from her lifeless body. This is a young adult drama that deals with cannibalism – consider me surprised and a little bit confused, as I was not expecting what kind of dark storytelling the show was coming up with. A show like DEN ANDEN VERDEN could be remade for an English-language audience, and it doesn't even have to be changed that much to be considered a serious HBO Max show, instead of one that targets the teenage demographic.
In the real world, Camilla gets fired again after having taken on the role of Sleeping Beauty after Sara's accident, because she couldn't have been more annoying in the role. The real world can be harsh for some of the kids. Considering how dark the show has been in these first six episodes, I wonder if Camilla is planning on taking necessary steps to ensure that she will get the role of Sleeping Beauty back. Whatever it costs...
