Okay, I'm calling it...! (Season 2) [SPOILERS]

[sjm]

Thought this might be a good place to put an "aha moment" you might get while writing in the forums before an episode actually airs. (Doesn't matter if it ends up being wrong, it's just a theory you believe or hope is true.)

Also, I will CONFIRM or refute calls according to the information given each episode, but please know, if you write me to contest a call, I am quick to reconsider or amend based on information given from one week to the next. These writers are tricky.

Since I have labeled this a spoiler thread, this should not be an issue. Have fun re-watching and thinking about what might be. I look forward to recording your thoughts/calls.
I will keep track again on this first page, alpahabetically, by caller.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Wizard of Oz is a strategy that needs to be employed -- right now there are three: Emma, Henry, and August. Maybe Dr. Hopper is the fourth. = Dorothy, Scarecrow, Tin Man and the Lion. (seconded by AntBee)
This fight between Regina and Rumple is one that had going on for years. (Cora v. Zoso, Cora v. Rumple, Rumple v. Regina, Regina v. Rumple v. Emma, Emma v. Rumple) similar to LOST (think Jacob vs. man in black concept; white v. black -- chess game, backgammon)
Emma will win.
The bow and arrow Snow used to try to kill Regina is the same bow and arrow Charming used to kill the Queen's guard when saving Snow in Snow Falls ep.3.
Abigail is also Sleeping Beauty (REFUTED EP2-1, Aurora is Sleeping Beauty)
The Storybook was meant to serve as a guide for Emma to break the curse and free everyone.

A Chipped Cup I call that

Everyone will stop expecting magic to solve their problems and instead turn to each other for help...in other words, a SB-wide rejection of magic.

Rumple wrote the storybook, for it to be exactly what it has been: a device that would eventually lead to the savior's arrival in SB (seconded by sjm)
The "forgetting" part of the curse and the town of SB were Rumple's ideas to protect those who lived in the EF.. (REFUTED EP2-4, Rumple eluded to this being the cost for his bringing magic back)

Jefferson is Baelfire (seconded by Midnight Dreary)
As "Magic always comes with a price" Rumple will pay an ultimate price for bringing magic into a "land without magic"... (He is paying a pretty hefty price since he cannot leave to find Bae which was his plan from the beginning)

Baelfire will return and is going to be 30 something and EVIL!!!
Rumple turns very dark after having magic back in his life....
Jefferson with his magic back will be able to realm jump, maybe he can time-travel manipulate events
Cora (enough said) LOLZ.... (CONFIRMED EP2-3 she's back!)

that Baelfire's going to be dead but they won't reveal that until towards the end of the entire series as a final kick in the teeth to Rumpel.

Regina will redeem herself before the end of the series by helping to fight for "good."

[King Arthur]

I predict for Season:
1. In FTL, storyline will continue on Snow/Charming as "take back the kingdom".
2. In Storybrook...well, there will be NO more Storybrook. The purple smoke (much like the Queen's curse black smoke in pilot) will transport everyone again to another realm. The new twist will be everyone remembers who they are but loved ones will be separated and dispersed throughout into a variety of different realms (Oz, Neverland, Wonderland, etc)...everyone trying to reunite with loved ones.
3. Now that the SB curse has broken, as predicted originally by Rumplestiltskin...now the "final battle" will begin. This will be a battle for ultimate power between Emma, Rumple, EQ, and Blue Fairy.

Loved Season 1 finale, heck loved all of Season 1 OUaT. Will be a long summer to wait for the return of Season 2.

[hjbau]

We already know that they take back the kingdom. They were living in the castle at the time of the pilot.

[EastOfTheSun]

1) I predict that as "Magic always comes with a price" Rumple will pay an ultimate price for bringing magic into a "land without magic"...so an ultimate price must be payed...I hope I am wrong and this does not happen because I LOVE Rumple and ship Rumple/Belle SO much!!..but I fear for Belle/Baelfire well begin.. and Rumple's sanity! Maybe Rumple's soul will get corrupted beyond repair by bringing magic into a magicless land, and he will become the ultimate villan!!

2) I have a feeling: Jefferson will be a key player next season in the ultimate battle!...he seems to know A LOT about Regina and Rumple 2 very powerful characters (how did he know about Belle and Rumple, and the mental ward below the hospital? did he make a deal with Rumple? Is he related to one of them? MMMM)

3) Season 2: Main Villain ideas:

-Baelfire will return and is going to be 30 something and EVIL!!! Imagine a Father vs Son showdown that would be epic!! Also all the Rumple angst over making his son turn evil by not going through the portal!!
-Rumple turns very dark after having magic back in his life....
-Jefferson with his magic back will be able to realm jump, maybe he can time-travel manipulate events, who knows!!!
-Cora (enough said) LOLZ....

[sjm]

I think I will call with the return of magic Sydney will be able to grant wishes once again:)
