'Once Upon a Time' season 2 episode 17: First look at Sheriff Graham's return (Photos)

"Once Upon a Time" season 2 is going to be flashing back to the first days of the curse, 28 years ago, in episode 17, "Welcome to Storybrooke," for which ABC released promotional photos on Monday, March 11.

In this next "Once Upon a Time" episode, it's up to Emma (Jennifer Morrison), David (Josh Dallas) and Mr. Gold (Robert Carlyle) to protect Mary Margaret (Ginnifer Goodwin) from Regina (Lana Parrilla), who wants revenge for her mother's death and whose new mission is to kill Mary after her actions in "The Miller's Daughter." But it's going to be Henry (Jared Gilmore) who comes up with a plan to put an end to their problems—by putting an end to magic.

Meanwhile, the first photos from "Welcome to Storybrooke," which you can check out in the slideshow at the top of this article, offer a look at the other part of this episode: what Storybrooke was like 28 years ago, when the curse had first been cast and Regina found out that a father and son had somehow wandered into the town. These photos include a glimpse at Jamie Dornan's return as Sheriff Graham/Huntsman and Regina and Mary Margaret looking in at the comatose David in the hospital (remember those days of season 1?).

"Once Upon a Time" season 2 airs Sundays at 8 p.m. on ABC. What are you most hoping to see in the flashbacks to Storybrooke's early days?
