Rocky Road (Once Upon a Time)

"Rocky Road" is the third episode of the fourth season of the American fantasy drama series Once Upon a Time, which aired on October 12, 2014.

In this episode, Elsa is framed, while flashbacks show Elsa meeting her aunt, The Snow Queen.

This episode marks the introduction of Michael Socha as Will Scarlet to the main cast, who recently featured in the spin-off series Once Upon a Time in Wonderland.

The Storybrooke's ice cream shop, "Any Given Sundae", stands in the forest.

The Arendelle events take place after "A Tale of Two Sisters". The Storybrooke events take place after "White Out".

In the wake of her sister Anna heading off towards Misthaven, a concerned Elsa is now panicking over her sister's mission, even as Kristoff tells her that her kingdom needs her more than Anna does right now. Elsa then receives news that Prince Hans is leading an army straight to Arendelle, so she has to stay and prevent him from attempting to take control of the kingdom once again. While spying on the former regent and his 12 brothers, Kristoff discovers that Hans has brought with him a sketch of an urn that once it is in use, will be able to trap people. Kristoff, fearing that he will use the urn on Elsa so he can take over Arendelle, returns to warn Elsa, who decides to follow Kristoff along after he volunteers to go after Hans before he carries out his plot.

Hours later, and after making a trek towards a cave, Elsa and Kristoff discover the urn that was kept hidden. When Elsa discovers an unfamiliar language encrypted on the item, it leads to confusion between her and Kristoff over whether to destroy it or not, only to be caught off guard by Hans and his brothers, who then takes a sword to Kristoff and demand that Elsa drop the urn or he'll kill him. After Elsa gives in, she hands over the urn to Hans, then warns Kristoff to search for Anna. Smugly, Hans remarks that a monster like Elsa shouldn't rule Arendelle, and he uncaps the relic, only to discover that a person was already inside: the Snow Queen, who forms out of a white liquid. After she is unleashed, the Snow Queen freezes Hans, and his brothers flee from the cave. Arriving at the castle, Elsa and the Snow Queen chat about their ice powers. Seeing a portrait of Elsa's parents, the Snow Queen reveals that Elsa's mother Gerda was her sister. Still concerned about Anna, Elsa relates these fears to her newly discovered aunt, who promises to assist her. She also tells Elsa about finding others like them who may have met the same fate as her.

Robin Hood, Marian, and Roland visit "Any Given Sundae", where the Snow Queen serves them ice cream, but unknown to them she casts a spell on the ice cream cone that she gave Marian. Meanwhile, Elsa, joined by Emma and Hook, pay Gold a visit and to find out if he has known Anna based on the necklace Elsa found in his pawn shop. Belle uses the fake dagger to “command” Gold to tell the truth but it fails, as he knows nothing about Elsa or Anna, and wishes them the best of luck finding her.
