‘Once Upon a Time’ season 3 spoilers: Who is targeting Josh Dallas’ Prince Charming?

“Once Upon a Time” loves to occasionally have their little character spotlight episodes, and given that it feels like a long time since we have had a #CharmAttack, one is certainly coming your way with Josh Dallas’ character front and center.

Yesterday, we presented the first preview for Sunday night’s “The Tower,” and now that we have had a chance to view the full synopsis, it looks as though there is going to be a Charming story on all fronts. He will be trying to help Rapunzel let down her hair, but at the same time in Storybrooke, struggle with the fact that he has to deal with Zelena the Wicket Witch. Take a look at this synopsis below:

“While Emma, David, Regina and Hook continue their search for the Wicked Witch, she, in turn, is planning a dark surprise for David, and Zelena’s prisoner is powerless under her watch as she plots her next course of action against the townspeople. Meanwhile, in the Fairy Tale Land that was in the previous year, Prince Charming stumbles upon Rapunzel, who is trapped inside a tower, and must help her confront her fears in order for her to be free.”

First of all, we are just happy to hear that this is proof that the Rapunzel encounter came within the past year, so it is not just some nugget that was left out of past flashbacks. Still, what relevance does it have in the present now? Maybe Rapunzel has a role to play in Storybrooke now, or maybe this is similar to one of the show’s early episodes that featured a major guest star who was not always valuable to the future of the story. (Take, for example, when Cinderella turned up back in the day.)
