Leroy knows he shouldn’t have risen to it, knows that the priority should be letting David know what happened to Tom/Sneezy, what will happen to anyone if they cross the town line and try and leave Storybrooke. Yet as he makes his way towards the gathering where David’s attempting to calm the town, he hears that ass Whale asking whether the nuns are still nuns, or whether they can date.

Leroy knows exactly what kind of a man Whale is, knows he’s not going to stand for him talking about Astrid – Nova, he reminds himself – and her friends like that; as he takes a swing and delivers a well-aimed punch to Whale’s face, the women of Storybrooke are silently cheering.
