Role in the series[]
Before the First Curse[]
A young Snow White with her sick mother.
Snow White grows up believing that royals are better than anyone else and that their staff members do not deserve to be treated with respect, established when she treats her mother's handmaiden, Johanna, poorly despite Queen Eva's kindness towards Joanna. Eva informs her daughter that just because they are royalty, it does not mean they should treat people differently. When Snow's eighth birthday approaches, her mother suddenly falls ill and Snow becomes incredibly concerned for Eva. Johanna contacts the royal doctor, but he has no idea what is wrong with the queen. Fearing her mother will die, Snow is determined to find a solution and Joanna tells her about a fairy that should help her.
Snow white visits the blue fairy who informs her that there is a magical candle that will heal the queen, but it comes with a price; the candle trades one life for another. Snow declines the offer as she has had a change of heart and does not believe someone else dying is fair while her mother lives. Snow returns to the castle and sees her mother. She tells her mother about the candle, who tells her she is proud of her, seeing how responsible and kind Snow White has become. The queen then dies in front of Snow, who attends her mother's funeral on what was supposed to be a celebration for Snow's birthday. It is then revealed that Cora Mills disguised herself as the Blue Fairy to see if Snow would indeed trade one life for another.
Snow White meets Regina.
Two years later, Regina rescues Snow from a runaway horse, and the two become instant friends. As a result, Leopold offers to marry Regina and provide Snow with a mother after the death of her biological one, and the kingdom with a Queen. However, Snow discovers that Regina loves the stable boy Daniel, but tries to keep it a secret after Regina explains true love. Unfortunately, Regina's mother Cora plays on Snow's feelings of losing a mother, causing the girl (not wanting Regina to suffer what she had and believing Cora merely wants her daughter's happiness) to reveal Regina's heart belongs to Daniel, leading to his death. Learning her role, Regina wanted Snow dead for revealing this secret and prevent her from having true love, as she was forced into a loveless marriage with Leopold instead.
Snow White meets Hercules.
When Snow is in her early teenhood, she is tasked with dealing with some bandits who are robbing the kingdoms' people. Regina tells the people that Snow will handle the bandits, which worries her as she leaves the castle. On her way out, Snow White falls into a hunter trap, where she is rescued by a handsome young man named Hercules, who she quickly develops a crush on and vice versa. Snow opens up to Herc about her issues with the bandits and Herc offers to train her to confront them, revealing his final labor is Cerberus, the three-headed hellhound. However, when Snow White stands up to the bandits, she fails and Hercules scares them off. Unknownst to Snow White, Regina is the one who sent the bandits to prove that she would make a better queen than Snow. Snow White is about to give up until Hercules shows her his medals and reveals his secret that he almost died when facing his first labor, the minion lion. With this information, Snow decides to try again to face the bandits, and succeeds. Hercules asks Snow if she would like to join him face Cerberus and while she says she would like to, but can't abandon her kingdom. The two part ways with a kiss before Hercules goes to face the monster, but dies, which is unknown to Snow White.
Years later, Regina orchestrates Leopold's undoing, and the Huntsman is enlisted by the Queen to kill Snow, like in the Disney film, but he spares her for her selflessness. She continues living in the forest, stealing from the nobles of the Queen's domain in the hopes of collecting enough money to move out of the realm. She meets Prince James while robbing him, and she nicknames him "Prince Charming" when he captures her to regain his stolen engagement ring, which she already sold. The pair falls in love on their journey to buy back the jewels, but he returns to his fiancée. Realizing she and James can never be together, she receives from Rumplestiltskin a potion that will erase all her memories of James. Shortly after, she gets a letter from James telling her to meet him at the castle if she loves him, so they can run away before he is married.
An adult Snow White meets Prince David, while on the run from the evil queen.
She goes to meet him, but his adoptive father, King George, catches her in the castle and forces her to tell James that she does not love him, or he will be killed in the image of a martyr. She then goes to live with the Seven Dwarfs. James breaks off his engagement, but she drinks the potion shortly before the news reaches her. The potion changes her into a mean-spirited and cruel person, and she realizes that her anger stems from the death of her father. Snow tries to kill Regina, the person responsible for her father's death, but James takes the arrow meant for the oblivious Queen. He tells her that he would rather die than let Snow become evil, and she realizes that no one else is willing to die for her. She kisses him and regains her memory. However, the pair is again separated when George's knights capture James. She and the dwarfs then set out to rescue James. Some time later, Snow is voluntarily poisoned by the Queen and James kisses her and brings her back to life. Snow and James manage to take back the kingdom from Regina with help from the Blue Fairy, banishing Regina from the realm.
Snow White is forced to drink the poison, preventing her from baring a child.
Snow is later introduced to James' mother Ruth, who is soon hit by an arrow aimed at by the queen's guards. Snow arrives as Ruth is hit and meets her future mother-in-law. While on their way to lake Nostos, which is said to have magical healing waters, Snow tells Ruth that she was poisoned by King George so that she can never have children. With help from Lancelot, Snow and Charming learn the lake is dried up but they find one little bit of magic left. Ruth tries to convince Snow to drink the water as it will cure her curse, but she refuses as she knows Ruth will die. Ruth then pretends to drink the water and wants to see Snow and Charming married as she is dying, so Snow gets Lancelot to marry them inprontly. Snow drinks from the canteen and they are married just as Ruth passes away. After Charming buries his mother, Snow learns from Lancelot that Ruth made him switch the glasses so that Snow's curse is broken. She then informs Lancelot that her future child will indeed be a girl.
Snow gives birth to Emma.
Some time after being cured, Snow and James are married for real and have an official ceremony, but the Queen arrives at the wedding to announce that she will place a curse on everyone to destroy Snow's happiness. This greatly worries Snow and she and James learn of a powerful wizard named Rumplestiltskin who has the ability to know the future. They inform him of the queen's plans and Rumplestitskin asks for their child's name. Although Charming refuses, Snow tells him their daughter is named Emma and Rumplesitskin tells them that their unborn baby will break the curse in 28 years.
Back at the castle, Snow gathers the dwarfs, Jiminy Cricket, the Blue Fairy, Pinochio, his father Gippeto, and other people. Together they learn that there is magical wood that can be carved into a wardrobe, which Gippeto does for Snow and Charming. Snow White later gives birth months later to Emma and Charming places their baby in the wardrobe just as the queen's guards enter the royal castle. The curse takes hold as Charming lies on the ground, seemingly lifeless and Snow cries as having lost her newborn.
During the First Curse[]
Mary Margaret Blanchard.
In Storybrooke, she is Mary Margaret Blanchard. She is Henry's (her daughter's son, who was adopted by Mayor Regina Mills) favourite teacher. Noticing he's unhappy, she gives her grandson a book of fairy tales to instill him with hope. She also invites Emma to live with her upon realizing that Emma was thrown out of the bed and breakfast thanks to Regina's attempt to frame her. Mary Margaret volunteers at the hospital and reads Snow White and Prince Charming's tale to the comatose David Nolan, who is really James. He wakes up, and the pair instantly falls in love, despite David's marriage to Kathryn. Mary Margaret resigns from the hospital because of the heartache she feels from being around David and tries to start a relationship with Dr. Whale. However, she develops stalker-like behavior: she knows David's daily schedule and tries to be where he is. She finally tries to avoid David, but she and David find they cannot stay away from each other and begin a secret relationship. After the affair becomes public and David's marriage breaks down, Mary Margaret is labeled a tramp and becomes an outcast. However, some of the residents reach out to her after she sells candles to help the local nunnery pay its rent. Later, she is arrested for Kathryn's apparent murder after Mary Margaret's fingerprints are found on a box containing a human heart shortly after Kathryn's disappearance. The box is later found to be Mary Margaret's, and the heart is proven to be Kathryn.
Emma believes that Mary Margaret is being framed and asks her to wait and to trust Emma until she can be proven innocent. However, Mary Margaret finds one of Regina's skeleton keys in her cell and uses it to escape. It is later revealed that after her escape, she was captured and held captive by Jefferson. She is found by Emma, and the pair is able to escape when Mary Margaret kicks Jefferson out a window. Then Mary Margaret willingly returns to her jail cell to face her trial, but before this happens, Regina visits her and promises to make her life hell, no matter what it takes. Mary Margret tearfully comments that she has no idea what she has done to deserve being treated this way by Regina, but Regina takes this in her stride to make sure her enemy is taken to court and thrown out of Storybrooke forever. When Kathryn reappears, Mary Margaret is released. Consequently, her relationship with David becomes strained since he did not believe she was innocent. He eventually decides to leave Storybrooke when Mary Margaret does not give him a reason to stay, but they are reunited when the curse is broken, and they regain their memories.
After the First Curse[]
Mary Margret and Emma are captured by Mulan.
With the curse now broken,the two find Emma, only for Mary Margaret to be transported with her back to the remaining Enchanted Forest through a portal after trying to send the Wraith back. Emma falls through the portal and Mary Margret jumps in after her, not wanting to be seperated from her daughter again. David tries to do the same but the portal closes. While in the forest, they are found by Mulan and Princess Aurora, who blames Emma and Snow for her prince, Philip's, apparant death. Mary Margret and Emma are thrown into a pit as Mary Margret is knocked out. When she awakens, Mary Margret is reunited with Regina's mother, Cora Mills, who Snow considers far more evil than Regina ever was. Mary Margret and Snow are then rescued and are reunited with Lancelot, an old friend of Snow's. With Lancelot's help, Snow and Emma are able to leave and find their way back to Storybrooke, but are insisted on having Mulan take them, who in hand must protect Princess Aurora, as orders by Philip.
With help from Aurora and Mulan, Snow takes Emma back to The Royal Castle, their family home and have to find a way to activate the magical wardrobe that brought Emma to the land without magic. Lancelot appears to Snow and Emma, but Snow realises that the man in front of them is not actually Lancelot as he mentions Henry's, Emma's son, name. With this, Mary Margret realises that "Lancelot" is actually Cora, Regina's mother, because she is the only one who Emma told Henry's name to. Cora then tries to use the wardrobe to go to Storybrooke and reunite with her daughter, so Emma destroys their only way home. After Cora disappears, Snow and Emma share a heart-to-heart about her putting her daughter first. As Emma leaves, Snow breaks down in tears over having missed the chance to raise her only daughter in this castle.
Mary Margret comforts Aurora.
Some time later Mary Margret, Emma, Mulan and Aurora are ambushed by Ogers and Mary Margret saves her daughter from being attacked by one. However, Aurora almost kills Mary Margret as she blames her and Emma for her prince's death, and is stopped by Mulan after Snow suggests the princess finds another way to channel her anger. After this, Mary Margret realises that Aurora is having nightmares and helps her deal with them as she has been under a sleeping curse, just like Aurora. Mary Margret and Emma learn that Aurora has been having dreams of a young boy, revealed to be Emma's son, Henry. They learn that she has been seeing him while going into a dangerous, firery room, as part of having been in a sleeping curse. Mary Margret comments that she recongises this room as she has also been in a sleeping curse and has been in that room too. The group use this information to their advantage, in hopes Aurora will be able to communicate with Henry and tell David, Regina and the others in Storybrooke, that they are alive and trying to get home.
After realising how dangerous this fiery place is, Mary Margret offers to go under another sleeping curse as Aurora has been affected. While this is happening, Henry is also in danger from going to this location in his sleep, so David offers to take his place and go under a sleeping curse to speak to Aurora. Mary Margret goes under the curse once more and is shocked to see Charming there instead of Henry. They two struggle to communicate because of the fire but Charming tries to get Snow to kiss him, hoping this will awaken him with true loves kiss. However, Mary Margret starts to disappear as she is awakening since the poppy dust only lasts an hour. Snow awakens and Charming is stuck in the curse.
Mary Margret awakens David from the sleeping curse.
Mary Margret, Emma, Aurora and Mulan suddenly find themselves at a new location and learn that Cora killed lots of residents by tearing their hearts out, only to find someone moving amongst the bodies, who says he is blacksmith. However, Emma doesn't believe him and forces himself to reveal his true identity. When this man reveals himself as Killian Jones, more commonly known as Hook, Mary Margret realises he is Captain Hook. Hook reveals he has been sent by Cora to gain Mary Margret and Emma's trust to learn everything there is to know about Storybrooke. They decide to have Hook guide them after promising to set him free from Cora's wrath. However, Hook decieves them and they are trapped in Rumplestiltskin's old cell, but are able to escape and make their way to Lake Nostos. Mary Margret and Emma fight Cora and Hook, and jump through a portal, allowing them to return to Storybrooke. Mary Margret kisses David with true loves kiss and awakens him from the sleeping curse.
After Regina and her mother Cora attempt to gain power by killing Mr. Gold, Mary Margaret curses Cora's heart with the same candle that Cora offered her to heal her ailing mother Eva (learning her mother's death was Cora's doing to make Regina queen) and tricks Regina into killing her. She pleads for Regina to kill her when she cannot deal with what she has done, but she instead tearfully taunts her after realizing that her heart is starting to turn dark.
Before the Second Curse[]
The heroes on Hook's ship.
When Henry is kidnapped and taken to Neverland, Snow travels with Emma, David, Regina, Mr. Gold, and Captain Hook to rescue him, but meet the villainous Peter Pan who is the one behind Henry's kidnapping. Pan tells the group that the map is not working because Emma has not embraced who she truly is; a lost girl and the saviour. It isn't until Mary Margret encourages her daughter to say the word, which allows the map to appear and work. Mary Margret and Emma share a moment about Emma feeling like an orphan, but Mary Margret that she wants to change that.
After a week on the island, they meet Tinker Bell who offers to help the group find Pan's camp as he keeps moving it as a game to taunt the heroes, although Tinker Bell only agrees to helping them after Mary Margret promises to let her come with them when they leave. Tinker Bell asks about the escape plan, to which Mary Margret comments that this was a last minute trip and they are making the plan up as they go along, which annoys Tink as she decides to leave them to it until they have figured out a way to leave the island.
Mary Margret and David reoncile.
When the Lost Boys ambush the heroes, Mary Margret notices David in pain and he says he is okay, but he has actually been hit by Dreamshade which is a deadly poison that once took Liam Jones, Killian's brother's life. David keeps this as a secret from Mary Margret while Hook is the only one to know about it. While on their way around the island, Emma tells Mary Margret that she kissed Hook, which surprises her mother and is unsure what to do as they are looking for Emma's ex, Neal Cassidy who is revealed to have also arrived in Neverland. When the group reaches a cave, they find Neal in a cage but can only reach him by revealing their darkest secret. For this to work Mary Margret expresses to David that she wants another baby since she and David missed the chance to see Emma grow up. While David loves the idea, he reveals that he was hit by Dreamshade and drank special spring water that while he is healed, he can't ever leave Neverland as he will die, which greatly upsets Mary Margret because David kept it a secret, but promises to stay with him on the island even if it means leaving Emma.
The heroes return home.
Mary Margret, Emma and Regina are tangled up by one of the trees when Pan approaches them and begins to taunt Emma about giving up Henry. Mary Margret tells him to leave her daughter alone, to which he begins now taunting Mary Margret about giving Emma up and abandoning her for 28 years. When Regina tells Pan to stop talking, he reveals that he is the father of Rumplestiltskin, despite looking a lot younger than him and has him trapped in a box. Mary Margret asks Pan how it is possible that Rumple is his son, to which he comments that he is older than he looks and magic has made him look younger, similarly to how Mary Margret looks the same age as Emma. When Regina rips Henry's heart out of Pan's chest, the three women are able to return to their family and David is given a temporary potion that will for now cure his dreamshade and allow him to travel back to Storybrooke until Rumple can make up the rest of the cure. However, unbeknownst to the family, Pan switched bodies with Henry, while they are able to leave Neverland. The family returns home and Mary Margret is overjoyed that David is fully cured.
The celebrations of the return are short-lived however, as the family learns that Pan switched bodies with Henry when he is let out of Pandora's box. When Henry and Pan return to their own bodies, Pan gains the original dark curse and enacts it which means everyone could die. After both Pan is killed by his son, at the cost of Rumple's life, Regina is able to make Emma and Henry cross the town line and gain new memories, but everyone else will return to the Enchanted Forest. Mary Margret tearfully says goodbye to her daughter once more before Emma and Henry cross the town line.
During the Second Curse[]
Snow and Charming return to the Enchanted Forest.
Back in the Enchanted Forest, Snow learns she is pregnant but discovers that Regina's half-sister Zelena the Wicked Witch of the West wants her baby for nefarious purposes. Snow and Charming realize they must enact a new curse to return to Emma and stop Zelena. A reassuring David lets Snow crush his heart, though she later requests Regina split Snow's heart to give to both of them.
A year later, Emma returns to Storybrooke, learning her mother is pregnant. Zelena plots to steal the baby by becoming her midwife, as an ingredient in her spell to open a time portal. She is able to abduct Mary Margaret and David's newborn son, but Zelena is ultimately defeated thanks to truly reformed Regina. David would return the child back into Mary Margaret's arms. Emma, however, says that she and Henry are leaving Storybrooke for New York, which everyone, even Henry, is opposed to.

After checking the book, they find that all the story's in Once Upon a Time have been erased. Together the two work to reunite her parents. In this new past, Snow appears to be killed by Regina, but she quickly uses the Fairy Dust to turn herself into an insect.

After the Third Curse[]
Mary Margret in the underworld.
Mary Margaret later joined Emma in the quest to rescue Hook in the Underworld, where Snow sees Prince James, David's twin brother, who kisses her when she mistakes him for David. As James leaves, Mary Margret is left feeling uncomfortable but brushes it off when David and Emma arrive. Shortly afterwards, Regina asks Mary Margret to help her find Daniel's grave after getting information from Cruella on how the gravestones work in this realm. Mary Margret finds Daniel's grave and she and Regina learn that he has moved on from the underworld and is in a happier place. Snow leaves Regina so she can have a private, final goodbye to her former love. Finding the grave encourages Snow to come up with the idea to help the residents of the underworld complete their unfinished business and move on.
While looking at all the gravestones, Mary Margret learns that her old friend Hercules is here which means he has unfinished business, which makes David slightly jealous as Snow had a previous romance with the demigod. Mary Margret decides to help Hercules as she thinks he can help the group find Killian. After getting help from the Blind Witch, Snow finds Hercules by the docs. Hercules recongises Snow and they embrace, as she realises he is still so young. She asks him how he died, but he refuses to tell her, believing it does not matter. Snow asks Hercules to help her find her daughter's boyfriend, informing him that Killian is being kept in a dungeon that is guarded by Cerberus and Hercules agrees. After regrouping with Emma, Regina and David in the tunnels, Mary Margret and Hercules are about to face Cerberus when he is called off by Hades, who reveals that Cerberus was the one who killed Hercules, which saddens Snow as Hercules didn't want to tell her and let her down.
Snow and Hercules' emotional goodbye.
Back at the docs, Mary Margret tries to encourage Hercules to try again, but he refuses at first because Cerberus is too dangerous as he has three heads and tells her that every time he tried to go for one of them, the other heads would attack. Mary Margret then gets the idea to help Hercules defeat Cerberus as she became the hero he always knew she would become. Later that day, Mary Margret and Hercules are about to fight Cerberus when they find Megara hiding from the creature. With her help, Mary Margret and Hercules are able to destroy the beast once and for all, completing Hercules' twelth labor. After seeing Hercules and Megara become closer, Mary Margret decides to go back to being named Snow White, as she enjoyed her adventurous side of life. Hercules and Megara are soon able to move from the Underworld to Mount Olympus, and he and Snow share a tearful goodbye as he departs onwards, as Snow cries seeing her former love interest go into the light.
Snow White's actions later result in Hades picking her as one of three souls he wants to keep behind. Following this, she discovers that she no longer wants to be known as Mary Margaret and returns to being Snow White. She and David later learn that his brother James is in the Underworld, bitter about the way his brother got all the glory that he could have had if he didn't die. Later, Snow and David find a way to contact their son, Neal from the Underworld, only to have Cruella De Vil and her henchman Claude tear out the phones after they succeed. As a sacrifice to keep one soul in the Underworld, David trades places with Snow and Snow returns to Storybrooke. Before arriving back home, Snow witnessed her friend Red's awaking Dorothy Gale with true love's kiss.
Before the Fourth Curse[]
Following the defeat of Hades at the hands of Zelena, Snow was transported, along with David, Zelena, and Hook, to the Land of Untold Stories, led by the sinister Mr. Hyde. Fortunately, with the assistance of Dr. Jekyll, the heroes escaped. Then with further help from their family in New York City, Snow, David, Zelena, and Hook were safely returned to the Land Without Magic, accompanied by Jekyll (who had now separated himself from Hyde). Upon her return, Snow was witness to Regina's using Jekyll's serum to separate herself from the Evil Queen, as well as her subsequent attempt to destroy her.

After the people from the Land of Untold Stories arrive in town, Snow and her family stop Hyde and decide to help these new people with finding their happy endings but find themselves in repeating battles as the Evil Queen arrives and has Regina kill the Count of Monte Cristo. Afterwards when they are trying to figure out why the Evil Queen survived, Regina crushing her and find a way to destroy her, Snow wishes to become a teacher again and for things to return to normal which they start to do, but this is short-lived when the Evil Queen threatens Storybrooke with water from the River of Lost Souls unless Snow and David give up their shared heart which they do. But the Evil Queen decides to give them her pain of loneliness, so she places a sleeping curse on their shared heart so when one is awake, the other will be asleep, meaning Snow and David cannot be together. As they try to continue life without each other, Snow starts to lose hope as she cannot stand being without David.

Hook, still in Neverland, meets up with Tiger Lily, who gives him a piece of an ancient fairy wand to give Emma, to aid her in defeating the Black Fairy. Gold learns that the Black Fairy had been manipulating Gideon with his heart, and confronts her about it, with her saying that if they should fight, Storybrooke would be destroyed. In 1993, a pixie flower awakens Snow and Charming from their cursed selves, but an awakened Rumplestiltskin tells them they must make a difficult decision, to ensure that Emma fulfills her destiny as the Savior. In the present, a Pixie flower allows Emma to open a doorway to Neverland and rescue Hook, who re-proposes. Snow and David are then freed from their curse when the residents of Storybrooke share the curse.
Following the engagement, Snow becomes very excited about planning Emma and Hook's wedding. Snow and David have a disagreement about where the wedding reception should take place, even David referencing Snow's one night stand with Dr. Whale, much to Snow's annoyance.
