Granny

After the casting of the curse, Granny becomes the owner of two in-town businesses in Storybrooke, a diner and a bed and breakfast, with her granddaughter Ruby. Their differences constantly lead to arguments. While she wishes for her granddaughter to be a responsible young adult, Ruby often stays out late and gets upset at Granny for giving her such early waitressing shifts at the diner. One day, Mayor Regina pays a visit to the diner, and orders some apple pancakes that are delivered to her on a plate by Granny. Sheriff Graham walks in and greets Regina. Some chit-chat transpires, but the conversation is interrupted when Regina is tugged by a young boy, who comments he, too, likes apple pancakes. After some confusion, the air is cleared when the boy's father, Kurt Flynn introduces himself at the counter and explains he and his son, Owen are actively looking for a place to stay in town. Regina is less than thrilled at the prospect of two strangers in town, and excuses herself to speak to Graham privately. At the counter, Granny turns to Kurt and kindly says she can book a room for him. ("Welcome to Storybrooke")

Eighteen years later, Regina adopts a son, Henry, from Boston, and returns to Storybrooke for lunch at the diner. She is having a hard time soothing his crying spell, to which Granny stares until Regina snaps at her. As a suggestion, Granny advises her to try telling Henry a bedtime story as it might help to comfort him. ("Save Henry")

In another ten years, Granny's relationship with Ruby remains just about the same. They actively bicker while walking down the stairs of the bed and breakfast, and only stop when town newcomer, Emma, requests a room for the night. Granny is quite happy to have a customer since the town doesn't get much visitors, and pulls out an extremely dusty guest book from behind the counter. While booking the room, Granny asks for her name, and after Emma says her full name, the rent collector, Mr. Gold, comes in to take the monthly rent. She hastily hands him all the money, and he promptly leaves. ("Pilot")

Emma becomes curious about her biological son, Henry, and his stubborn fixation that everyone in town is a fairytale character. She goes to his psychiatrist, Dr. Hopper for answers, and he violates doctor-patient confidentiality by willingly giving her Henry's patient file. Emma has no idea he is acting on Regina's orders, and is arrested by Sheriff Graham at her booked room in the bed and breakfast on charges of stealing the file. Granny ends up kicking Emma out of the room because she was arrested. She states the bed and breakfast has a no-felons policy, which coincidentally Regina called to remind her of, and therefore Emma is forced to leave. ("The Thing You Love Most")

When Emma rescues Regina from a fire at the town hall, Granny is among the crowd that supports Emma on the sheriff election. When Ruby calls the blonde a hero, Granny agrees and offers to make posters for her campaign. ("Desperate Souls")

One morning, Ashley enters the diner with her baby daughter. As the girl joins Mary Margaret, Ruby and Emma on a table, she hands Alexandra to Granny. ("Skin Deep")

Scandal rocks the town of Storybrooke when Kathryn angrily and publicly confronts Mary Margaret for having an affair with her husband, David. Mary Margaret bumps into Granny on the street after the incident, and by then, news of the affair has spread through the whole town. Granny is appalled at Mary Margaret's actions, and says she should be ashamed. ("What Happened to Frederick")

On the annual Miners' Day festival, Mary Margaret attempts to rebuild her fractured public image by helping to sell candles. Her efforts impress Granny, who lights Mary Margaret's candle with her own as she walks by. The two exchange a smile. ("Dreamy")

However, Mary Margaret's reputation takes an even steeper dive after she is accused and jailed on charges of murdering Kathryn. In a lucky turn of events, she is cleared of any criminal involvement when Kathryn is found safe and alive, and there is no clear evidence linking her to the case. A party is thrown at Mary Margaret's apartment the day she comes home, and Granny is one of the many town residents that attend. ("The Return")

Planning ahead for the future, Granny expresses a desire to train Ruby to take over both the diner and bed and breakfast businesses. Though Ruby puts up a front of disliking such boring work, she is actually scared of the responsibility and lacks confidence in herself. Granny is stunned when Ruby abruptly quits her waitressing job. During this period, Ruby is hired by Emma as an assistant at the police department, and even visits to order lunch while telling Granny how much better off she is doing. Ultimately, Ruby decides she is not cut out for police work and comes back to ask for her old job back. Her granddaughter admits she bailed out on Granny due to worries about taking on such big duties for the businesses. Granny explains her plans to one day retire and have Ruby run the diner. She is certain Ruby can do it, and strongly believes in her. ("Red-Handed")

Emma finally comes to terms with her role as savior when Henry falls into a coma due to eating a poisoned apple turnover. Just when all hope is lost and Henry has passed away, Emma gives him true love's kiss, which restores him back to life and also breaks the Dark Curse. On the street, Granny is walking alongside Ruby when their Enchanted Forest memories return as the curse completely is lifted. ("A Land Without Magic")

After Emma breaks the Dark Curse and restores the memories of the townspeople, Granny first greets Ruby enthusiastically, then Mary Margaret and David as Snow White and Prince Charming. They reunite with the dwarves and walk down the street to figure out what to do next. In a panic, Archie runs over to tell them that Dr. Whale is leading a mob to Regina's house. Although Leroy believes Regina deserves it, the others object as it is not right to kill. They are further obligated to help when Henry pleads for his mother's safety. ("Broken")

When news spreads that anyone crossing the town line will lose their Enchanted Forest memories, the town is in a state of panic. David promises to have come up with a plan and for everyone to regroup at the town hall in two hours' time. After two hours, Granny and many others await David at town hall. Instead, Regina, with her magic restored to full capacity, makes a surprise appearance. Granny attempts to fire an arrow at Regina, but it is caught and thrown back at the townspeople as a ball of flame. Henry sacrifices himself to go home with Regina so she will stop terrorizing everyone. On a spur of the moment decision, Granny decides to risk leaving town and lose his Enchanted Forest memories if it means getting away from Regina. She is one of the many who pack up and attempt to drive out of town, but David's car blocks them from progressing any further. He makes a heartfelt speech to convince everyone there isn't any use in running away as both their Enchanted Forest and Storybrooke lives are themselves, and from their weaknesses they will draw strengths together. Moved, they all return home. ("We Are Both")

Belle, David, the dwarves, Henry and Mother Superior have a late night drinking festivity at the diner after finding a large batch of fairy dust in the mines. The dust will allow them a way to activate a magic hat and rescue Emma and Mary Margaret, who both were previously transported to another land by accident. During the party, Granny is making preparations for Ruby on her first curse-free wolfs time since they can't seem to find her magic cloak. David wanders into the storeroom to see Ruby taking out all the frozen lasagna out of the freezer as Granny wields a blow torch. After everything is finished, Granny locks Ruby in the storeroom for the night. The next day, Granny comes to the storeroom to discover the door ripped off its hinges. She finds David and the two of them go out to discover Ruby asleep in the woods. Ruby is distraught as she doesn't remember how she broke out as Granny comforts her. On the way back to town, they arrive at the dock to find Billy's mutilated body. Ruby, thinking she herself killed him, demands to be locked in prison so no harm comes to anyone else, so Granny reluctantly agrees. Later, she and David move Ruby to Belle's library due to fears that Albert Spencer and a mob of angry townspeople will break in and hurt her. Using her enhanced sense of smell, she and David then find an abandoned car nearby. Inside, they uncover evidence of Albert's murder of Billy and also take back Ruby's stolen cloak in the trunk. They hurry back upon hearing Ruby, in wolf form, howling as Albert prepares to fire his gun at her. Granny shoots an arrow from her crossbow to stun the mob into silence and stop Albert as well as giving him the warning that the next arrow will go right between his eyes. David manages to calm down Ruby, and she allows him close enough to place the cloak on her body. Once she turns back into human, Granny warmly embraces her before Ruby and David take off after Albert. ("Child of the Moon")

During a typical day at the diner, Granny serves burgers to Belle and Mr. Gold. She comments that the pickles cost extra for Mr. Gold. When Regina enters the diner, Granny nervously calls for everyone to clear out of the building. Mr. Gold stops her; claiming that he and Regina are on friendly terms for the moment. ("Into the Deep")

To commemorate Mary Margaret and Emma's victorious return home from the Enchanted Forest, Granny hosts an evening celebration at the diner. As Emma comes in, she confides to Granny that she made tacos, and what a relief it has been to make something without having to kill it. In response, Granny talks about the terribly difficult time she herself had making meatloaf in the Enchanted Forest. A hush falls over the diner when David calls everyone's attention and begins making a speech expressing happiness at reuniting with his wife and daughter. Afterwards, all the party guests raise their glasses in cheer when, suddenly, Regina walks in. Her presence displeases some of the guests, but the subject is dropped once Emma acknowledges she invited Regina. With that, everyone dispenses to mingle and have fun at the party. ("The Cricket Game")

The death of Archie is announced to the rest of the townspeople after Emma seemingly finds incriminating evidence via the dream catcher of Regina as the murder. Granny attends the funeral to listen to Mary Margaret give a eulogy dedicated to Archie. Following this, Granny, Bashful, Doc, Dopey, Happy, Leroy, Marco, Mother Superior, Ruby and Walter spend some time in Mary Margaret's loft for a luncheon. Leroy approaches Emma and Mary Margaret to ask on behalf of himself and other dwarves when they will be returning to the Enchanted Forest, which perks everyone else's attention to the conversation. He is concerned about Regina being on the loose, but also the possibility outsiders can wander into town now that the curse is lifted. Emma believes they are safe for now while Leroy believes that trouble will happen sooner or later. ("The Outsider")

Emma, David, and Mary Margaret find themselves spending the entire night at the hospital trying to figure out what to do with a mysterious outsider who has crashed into town, and Henry spends the night being taken care of by Granny. ("In the Name of the Brother")

Storybrooke becomes terrorized by a giant, Anton, after he is freed from Hook's ship by Mary Margaret, David and Leroy, and then eats a magical mushroom to return to his regular size. He takes his hatred of humans out on the residents, but the effects of the mushroom wear off during a stomping rampage, and Anton himself is left clinging on for life. Granny stabilizes a rope to a car while Ruby and the dwarves keep their grip on it as David goes down to pull Anton to safety. Afterward, Granny leads everyone back to the diner for food as they make the effort to make Anton feel at home. ("Tiny")

Granny receives an order at the diner from David and Leroy of ten bowls of chili without beans. She thinks they have something against beans and curiously wonders what they are working on. Leroy quickly answers that they are doing landscaping, though this makes Granny suspicious. The conversation is interrupted by the appearance of Mr. Gold, who requests to speak with David privately. Leroy is urged by David to go ahead without him, and he leaves the diner carrying the bowls of chili while Granny hurries back to work. She overhears Mr. Gold describe the diner's lasagna as "overpriced", and pointedly gives him a dirty look. In the evening, she waits on Mr. Gold and Lacey's table. While unaware of Belle's transformation, Granny is caught off guard by the girl's choice of attire and wonder if she raided clothes from Ruby's closet. Mr. Gold redirects the conversation by ordering two hamburgers. Lacey decides she doesn't want a hamburger, and reorders a different meal for herself, as well as a bottle of wine. Granny returns with two glasses and the wine bottle, which Lacey thanks her for. After Lacey leaves the table to clean up her stained dress, Granny comes back a second time to drop off their food orders. ("Lacey")

In the midst of Regina's strange disappearance, David, Emma, Mary Margaret and Neal search for her while Granny babysits Henry. At the park, she watches over him playing on the swing. Armed with her trusty crossbow, Granny gets up from the bench and gazes out to sea. Unbeknownst to her, at a distance, Mr. Gold is conspiring to cause a large fissure in the rope swing so Henry will smash his head on a nearby rock. He stops when the sound of a car door slamming shut startles him. From a truck, David, Emma and Mary Margaret arrive to pick up Henry. Emma approaches and greets Granny as she goes to talk to Henry. Much later, news reaches the townspeople of the impending doom of the trigger set off by Greg and Tamara. David and a realigned Hook steal back a magic bean from Greg. Everyone else gathers at the diner in preparation for leaving Storybrooke for the Enchanted Forest via the magic bean. However, Henry is reluctant to leave his mother behind as she is working to slow down the trigger. This causes Mary Margaret to suggest sending the trigger through a portal. Emma doesn't believe anyone is willing to go through with such a risky plan, but Archie persuades her that it's the right thing to do as everyone else present rallies in agreement. Emma finally agrees after Mary Margaret stresses Cora's death must not be repeated in Regina's case. The rest of the townspeople stick together as David, Emma, Mary Margaret and Henry hurry to stop the catalyst. Storybrooke is saved when Emma and Regina combine their powers to deactivate the trigger. ("And Straight On 'Til Morning")

Shortly after, Granny goes back to tending to her regular diner business. At the counter, she serves Belle a cheeseburger with french fries. Seeing her down in the dumps, Granny wonders if there's something wrong with the food, such as too many pickles, or too little. Belle gives the weak excuse that she's probably not hungry. Granny accepts her reason and goes off to tend to the cash register, but Archie, sitting two seats away from Belle, puts down his newspaper and slides over to chat. He suspects Belle's mood has to do with Mr. Gold, at which Granny passes by to remark that it's certainly got nothing to do with her cooking. Suddenly, Leroy pops into the diner with a woman, Ariel. Granny takes one look at Ariel's attire, or lack of it, before curtly refusing her any food service because of diner policies. Leroy, in turn, is incredulous at Granny's new dress code, considering the number of times Ruby has come in scantily clad. Belle then approaches to speak with Ariel, who brings news from Neverland about Mr. Gold. ("Dark Hollow")

As the Jolly Roger, carrying those who went on the Neverland mission, arrives at the dock, Granny is among the large crowd of townspeople welcoming back David, Emma, Henry and Mary Margaret. On first sight, she draws Henry into a hug. To everyone's surprise, Mary Margaret brings attention to the fact it was Regina's helpful efforts that allowed them to return home. Once again, a safe journey home prompts another celebration at the diner. ("The New Neverland")

Storybrooke once again faces trouble in the form of Peter Pan, who steals the Dark Curse scroll from Regina's vault, and casts it in order to afflict everyone with memory loss. Before the curse spreads throughout the entire town, Granny is enlisted to track down Henry, as he and Pan previously switched bodies and only just returned to their proper places, and leads a large group of residents towards the boy at the clock tower. Pan accosts the group with a freezing spell, but Mr. Gold sacrifices his life to kill Pan. As the price of countering Pan's curse, Storybrooke will be wiped out and everyone in it must return to the Enchanted Forest. Granny, with a handful of residents, gather at the border, where Regina sends Emma and Henry out of town to keep them from the curse's grasp. When the curse cloud approaches, Regina stops Pan's curse by undoing her curse, sending everyone back to the Enchanted Forest. ("Going Home")

A new curse is cast by none other than Snow White; returning Granny and the rest of the Enchanted Forest inhabitants to the town of Storybrooke. However, as a result of Wicked Witch of the West's interference, everyone's last recollection is the final day in Storybrooke when Regina stopped Pan's curse, but no one can recall anything further than that. Granny resumes working at both her diner and inn businesses. Emma returns and holds a town hall meeting to figure out who is behind the new curse. Leroy is quick to accuse Regina of wrongdoing, and Granny follows suit in agreement as do the other residents. Even Emma refuses to believe Regina, who causes a building tremor out of frustration, and then magically dissipates away. Unknown to everyone, aside from Leroy—who is also in on the scheme—this is a ploy Emma and Regina set up in order to make the townspeople believe the madam mayor is guilty while the two sleuth out the real criminal. Later, at the diner, Leroy announces that Emma caught Regina making a memory potion to prove she didn't cast the curse. While Granny grumbles that she wouldn't drink anything Regina made, everyone agree that whoever takes the potion will remember who cursed them. ("Witch Hunt", "A Curious Thing")

At the diner, Granny is preparing to open her business for the day in about twenty-minutes, but allows David, Hook, Mary Margaret, and Regina some privacy to discuss searching for a now missing and alive Mr. Gold, who apparently escaped from the confines of the Wicked Witch's farmhouse cellar. As Emma arrives in for the meeting, she hands her a cup of coffee from the counter. ("Quiet Minds")

Hearing the news of Neal's sudden death due to the Wicked Witch's machinations, Granny attends his funeral to pay her respects. Afterwards, most of the townspeople group at the diner where Zelena storms in; threatening to send the Dark One after them if they are not subdued. She publicly reveals herself as Regina's half-sister and forces her sibling into a showdown on Main Street after sundown. As the deadline approaches, Granny is one of the many who gather on Main Street to witness Zelena's arrival with a helpless Mr. Gold in tow. Once Regina shows up, the two witches magically spar. Zelena gains the upper-hand, flinging Regina into the clock tower, but later flees on her broomstick. ("It's Not Easy Being Green")

One day, as Mary Margaret and David walk along the beach, they come across a crowd. Among other townspeople, Granny watches who they think to be Ariel, after she washed ashore. The mermaid, who is actually Zelena in disguise, explains her long journey in searching for a missing Prince Eric, who hasn't been seen since the new curse was cast. ("The Jolly Roger")

When Regina bestows Henry with a kiss of true love, the curse breaks and everyone affected by it, including Granny, recall their memories from the missing year in the Enchanted Forest. ("A Curious Thing")

In a diner celebration welcoming David and Mary Margaret's newborn son, Granny learns from Leroy that Zelena is now defeated. He makes a joke about had Zelena's magic not been taken away, Aurora would still be a flying monkey and given birth to a monkey child. As the party goes on, she engages in conversation with Kathryn. Suddenly, the townspeople notice a stream of light radiating to the sky—Zelena's time spell. Through some investigation, Belle, David, Regina and Robin Hood find Zelena missing and decide to leave the time portal untouched for now. By accident, Emma and Hook travel through the portal to the past, recreating the first meeting between Prince Charming and Snow White and then returning to the present. Granny later witnesses David and Mary Margaret announcing they are naming their son after a true hero—Neal. ("Snow Drifts", "There's No Place Like Home")

During a town power outage, Granny, Happy and Leroy head to Mary Margaret's loft to convince her that she must fix the issue. While Mary Margaret believes this is something Regina should handle, Granny asserts it's her duty since she cast the last curse. Additionally, Leroy chimes that they assisted her in reclaiming a kingdom in the Enchanted Forest, and now Storybrooke is her new kingdom that she must rule. At the electrical service site, Granny complains about the clams in the diner freezer, which may expire soon. She suggests reading the power manual, however, Leroy confirms the writing is in Japanese. Happy wonders if Marco could help them, though Leroy grumpily reasons that they won't get anywhere with a woodcarver. Granny brings up Dr. Whale's name, but once more Leroy objects since the doctor is not an electrician. Mary Margaret, who is looking at the circuit system, insists they don't need help from anyone. Soon, Happy begins stating out loud all the electrical devices that they might not have if power is not restored as Granny and Leroy nod in approval. Exasperated, Mary Margaret lashes out, voicing her overworked and exhausting lifestyle since having a new baby, and maintains that although she cast a "little" curse, it wasn't her choice to maintain a town with residents dependent on electricity despite that they previously lived in the Enchanted Forest without it. Lastly, she spitefully tells them to buy a flashlight, which shocks Granny, Happy and Leroy into silence as they exit the service site. ("White Out")

At Mary Margaret's first town conference as the new mayor, Granny attends and, like everyone else present, she receives a meeting agenda. Of all the listed discussion points, Archie brings up a matter concerning an ice wall. Though Mary Margaret wants to talk about other things first, Leroy rallies the attendees, including Granny, into agreeing that they should hear about the ice wall first. Calmly, Mary Margaret explains the wall is not dangerous, though it does surround the entire town. The news causes dismayed shouting among the crowd, which startles baby Neal. When Leroy questions who created the wall, Mary Margaret informs them of Elsa, and reassures them that she is not an enemy. However, some of the townspeople have already formed a negative option, as Leroy recalls his frozen truck and Granny remembers the snow monster; two incidents which were Elsa's doing. As both David and Mary Margaret try to ease the worried citizens, Robin Hood's wife, Maid Marian, suddenly collapses from an apparent freezing spell. Later, outside the diner, Leroy voices fears about the town possibly being frozen by Elsa since Marian's affliction. Granny, too, believes the ice magic wielder should be stopped. Archie disagrees, believing they can't blame someone without proof, but Leroy insists Elsa's freezing power is enough evidence as it is. As they all walk past the ice cream parlor, Any Given Sundae, no one sees the real culprit smile in satisfaction. ("Rocky Road")

As the town falls under the influence of Ingrid's curse, mirror shards rain down from the sky and invade people's eyes; causing them to see only the bad in others and turn on each other. When the curse comes into effect, Granny witnesses, from outside the diner, Happy attempting to shoot Leroy with a crossbow. After Leroy runs off, Happy chases him. Later that same evening, Granny retrieves her own crossbow and walks down the street as Hook bumps into her, to which she barks at him to move out of the way. In the morning, Granny has a scuffle with Doc on the road. A snow fall, triggered by Ingrid sacrificing herself to stop the curse, blows through the air. Distracted from their petty arguments, the townspeople gaze happily at the snow and are lifted from the curse. Back to his old self, Doc hugs Granny. Friends again, the two are engrossed in conversation when Emma is reunited with her parents and Henry. As many people reconcile with each other, Granny and Doc talk with Bashful, Mr. Clark and Walter. ("Shattered Sight")

While Emma is getting ready to head out of the apartment, Granny takes care of baby Neal. Later in the day, after the nuns are freed from the hat, the diner is bustling with activity as everyone welcomes them back. At the counter, Granny is chatting with Mary Margaret when the whole building shakes and something roars outside as everyone reacts with shock. Belle, Emma, Hook, Mary Margaret and Regina rush to investigate and find a Chernabog perched atop the clock tower. After Emma and Regina temporarily stun the winged demon, they force the beast across the town line, where it ceases to exist. ("Darkness on the Edge of Town")

Arriving to town, Cruella De Vil and Ursula head to the diner for drinks. Giving them a deliberately cold reception, Granny delays their orders as the women sit at the counter. When Will enters to ask for his usual order, Granny quickly hands him two drinks. ("Unforgiven")

During the night, after Regina goes undercover and infiltrates Cruella, Maleficent and Ursula's group, the foursome drink heavily at the diner and cause some damage to the building, which upsets Granny considerably. The next morning, when Hook asks Granny for Regina's whereabouts, she recounts last night's events to him. ("Enter the Dragon")

On a regular work day, Granny does her job at the diner while Hook, Isaac and Mr. Gold have a conversation at one of the tables nearby. ("Mother")

After Isaac rewrites new lives for everyone, he sends Granny and every former Enchanted Forest native to an alternate reality inside his book, Heroes and Villains. ("Operation Mongoose Part 1")

Harnessing the quill, Henry reverts Isaac's stories and returns everyone to Storybrooke. That night, a celebratory diner party commences, with Granny and most of the townspeople in attendance. The festivities are interrupted when Belle enters the diner seeking help to save Mr. Gold, who is on the verge of death and must be saved before he loses all his humanity. ("Operation Mongoose Part 2")

Once Emma becomes the new Dark One, she disappears to another realm, leaving her allies to find a way to her with the Apprentice's wand. Zelena uses the wand, creating a cyclone with it, before Regina subdues her magic with a bracelet. As the cyclone approaches, some of the Storybrooke residents seek cover in the diner, where Granny tells Floyd to shut down the fryers and secure the condiments as she herself begins shelving items from the tables. She comments that her insurance may not cover the damage from the cyclone, though Regina insists the diner will be fine. Using the wand, Regina uses a baby blanket to redirect the cyclone into taking them to the Enchanted Forest. As the diner is ripped into the portal, Granny grabs hold of the counter. ("The Dark Swan")

After the diner lands in the Enchanted Forest, some of the group go off to search for Emma, and when they come back with her, Granny rushes out, exclaiming that the back-up generators are working but the fryers are out. Soon, the rest of the gang pop out of the diner to greet Emma, before they are approached by King Arthur and his knights, who believe Emma and her friends are prophesied to reunite them with Merlin. The group are then led by King Arthur to his castle in Camelot. ("The Dark Swan")

At the castle, King Arthur introduces the group to his Queen, Guinevere, and he announces there will be a ball held in their honor. Leroy reacts positively to this news, telling Happy and Doc that it is a good thing they came, as Granny chimes in that she won't have to cater. Before the ball festivities begin, Granny and the rest of the group wait with the other party-goers to watch Emma and Mary Margaret walk out and be formally introduced, before Regina comes out and is introduced as the savior. During the celebration, Granny sticks with Happy at the sidelines, observing the dancing couples. ("The Price")

On another day, Granny stands outside the diner while Emma says goodbye to Hook before leaving on a quest with Merlin. ("Nimue")

At the diner, Granny is behind the counter when Emma returns after getting the flame ember needed for uniting Excalibur and the dagger. She expresses relief at the good news and then heads to the back of the diner, while Emma asks Henry about where the others are. When he admits no one has come back yet, Emma suspects something is wrong, prompting her to tell Granny that they need to close up the shop. Coming out of the back room with her crossbow, Granny throws Henry a key to lock up the front door, while she takes care of the back area. The key suddenly magically freezes in midair, as do Granny and Henry, when Merlin comes to tell Emma that Arthur wants the flame ember or her family and friends will die. After Arthur and Zelena's defeat, everyone returns to the diner to witness Emma begin reforging the sword and dagger into one weapon. Suddenly, Hook collapses from a cut he previously sustained from Excalibur, which no magic can heal. A desperate Emma, willing to do anything to save him, including creating more darkness, teleports away with Hook. As she tethers Hook's life to Excalibur, making him a Dark One like herself, Granny and the others remain in the diner, looking on in alarm as black tendrils of darkness evaporate from Merlin's body. ("Birth")

Despite Emma's efforts to turn Hook away from the darkness, he kills Merlin to enact another curse to return everyone to Storybrooke so he can fulfill his centuries old grudge against Mr. Gold. In the hopes of finding a way to return him to the man he used to be, Emma absorbs Hook's memories from the last six weeks into a dreamcatcher, and she does the same with Granny and everyone else, to ensure no one remembers Hook becoming a Dark One, before adding the dreamcatcher to the curse brew, creating a full memory wipe. Soon, the curse spreads and sends them all back to Storybrooke. ("Broken Heart")

Upon arrival to Storybrooke, Granny and the others crash to the floor from the impact of the diner dropping onto the ground, and as they get up, the group realize they are still in Camelot attire, and the last thing anyone recalls is entering King Arthur's castle. Emma, in order to keep Hook's secret under wraps, enters and professes that she will punish them for what they did to her. ("The Dark Swan", "The Price", "Broken Heart")

After Regina has proven she is capable of protecting the townspeople, everyone spends a quiet night at the diner, where Granny has resumed her business. ("The Price")

While Hook is conversing with Robin Hood at the diner counter, Granny walks past them. She returns minutes later to drop a large takeout bag, that has a note from Emma, in front of Hook. Later in the day, Belle rushes in, carrying the rose in the glass jar, to get a sandwich from Granny, who advises her to sit down and take a breather. Belle declines, wanting to return to the pawnshop, so she can continue watching out for Mr. Gold. Suddenly, the second to last petal falls from the rose, leading Belle to believe Mr. Gold is close to dying, however, Granny then points out something strange happening with the petals, which magically dissipate and regrow on the rose. An astonished Belle realizes Mr. Gold is actually waking up, and after accidentally dropping the sandwich plate, she runs out the diner back to the pawnshop. ("Siege Perilous")

While Mr. Gold is away in the Underworld to rescue Hook, Granny waits on Leroy and Belle, who have come to the diner for lunch. From the Underworld, Mr. Gold sees Belle with Leroy in Storybrooke within a crystal ball, just as Granny walks over to set down Belle's order of pancakes. ("Devil's Due")

After Hades is defeated by Zelena, at the cost of Robin's life, Granny attends the funeral to mourn the loss of the Merry Men's leader. ("Last Rites")

That night, at Robin's wake in the diner, Granny, Little John, Friar Tuck, and Roland toast their drinks in honor of Robin, while Regina is still processing her lover's untimely death. During this, a tremor rips through Storybrooke, as a result of Mr. Gold absorbing the town's magic into the Olympian Crystal. To the shock of everyone except Emma, who wanted to break the news delicately to Regina, Hook rushes in, having been restored to life earlier by Zeus. The next day, Granny is holding baby Robin as she is with the heroes, when Zelena creates a portal so Merida, the Merry Men and the Camelot natives can go home. Granny brings baby Robin closer to Roland, who says goodbye to his sister. Afterwards, Zelena attempts to close the portal, and when the magic begins acting strangely, she cautions Granny to stand back. Granny then moves further away to keep baby Robin safe. When Zelena tries again to close the portal, she, Snow, David, and Hook are sucked into it and end up in another land. In fear of the group's safety, Granny sends a text to Emma, who is in New York, to share news of the group's disappearance. ("Only You", "An Untold Story")

While Hook is drinking alone at the diner, Emma drops by to make up with him after brushing him off earlier, as Granny is nearby waiting on customers. Later that night, residents of the Land of Untold Stories, who were brought to Storybrooke by Mr. Hyde, come to the diner to receive food and shelter. Granny, along with Hook, Emma, Henry, and David, help pass out blankets to the newcomers. ("The Savior")
