James' father

[darcyfarrow]

Anyone care to speculate on the identity of James' father? He's mentioned enough times in this episode that it seems likely we'll see him in a future episode."

Do you mean Charming's real father?

[darcyfarrow]

Yes.

[King Arthur]

I thought the real father had already died as of The Shepherd episode.

Yep, the mother says that he died in grieve of giving is other sone away (the first Prince James).

It is possible that Charming's father may be someone important though. There could be an interesting back story. I wonder what they are going to do with the flashbacks next season. I still think they are going to end this season around the time that Snow eats the apple and is asleep in the coffin so maybe they will go a bit past that. There is still a lot of story there though so they could always go into the past and show Charming's back story as a child. I think that they should make him the first James who switched with the James who switched with the James who died as a child and then when the other James died, Rumpel came to get Charming to take his place. Complicated, but interesting.

I also wonder if young Snow ever met young James as a child. Either the other prince James or our prince Charming. That seems possible.

there's mention of too many 'James' in that one paragraph. it boggles the mind.

I think it would be sweet if little Shepherd James met lit'le Snow White. it would be so cute!

Sorry i never consider our Prince Charming/David to be James. I always call him Charming and call the prince that died the other prince. I get confused when people call our Prince Charming, James, because we don't know if that is his name or not.

Since we just finished this episode in our rewatch, I was thinking about this, too. Maybe Charming's father is someone important. If so, who could he be?

[obisgirl]

I'm not sure if he's an important character.
