Someone Completely Majorly Shocking Dying?

[slurpeez108]

I just can't see Henry dying on OUAT -- a family show which kids watch! That would go entirely against the grain of Emma getting her HEA. So, I'll say no way to that one!

[EnchantedOne]

My money is on Rumple Dying...They say that it is the type of death that doesn't stick...My guess is because of his own curse he can't die unless he is killed with that knife...So I am guessing that we think he is dead only to have him working behind the scenes and then mid season next year he pops out and we see why/how he didn't die...

So frustrating...just when I feel like I am going to have resolution to the whole August question they throw stuff out there that makes me anxious about other stuff...man these writers are good. They know how to get the hook in our jaws and keep us watching and thinking.

In a spoiler video, it showed a mirror shattering. Giancarlo Esposito, who plays Sidney/Magic Mirror, has earned a role in a new series. So although he's not a major character, I predict his death will be sudden and shocking.

If they kill Mr. Gold, I'm going to cry. I can imagine Henry dying and that being the fuel for Emma's revenge.

I'm convinced it's going to be Mr. Gold. When taken all together, the few clues we have has to point to him.

It was originally posted on EOnline:

Nelsonhere: Please, give me some good scoop on Once Upon a Time! Will we see Belle again?
Yes, you will. And here's even better scoop: Someone completely majorly shocking will die in the last three episodes of the season. It's the kind of death you can't imagine could possibly stick!

Then Ausiello posted this on TVLine, always a really reliable source. It has to be referring to the EOnline spoiler from the exact wording:

Question: Any possibility you could give us some scoop on Fatality No. 3 on your May Sweeps Scorecard? Specifically, how likely is it to stick? —Ryan
Ausiello: Given how integral this person is to the series in question, I’d venture to say the odds of it sticking are slim.

So, who fits these descriptions? Taken with some spoilers we've heard kicking around I'm convinced it's Gold involved in maybe the reported explosion. However, the only way he can be killed is with the dagger. So if he's killed another way there is no way it's going to work. He's lived for centuries, it's going to take a bit more to kill him. I will admit to being very depressed when I first felt like it would be Rumple/Gold. He's my absolute favorite, which when thinking back on my initial impression of him from the Pilot is shocking. Never thought watching that first episode he would become the reason I watch the show.

What explosion? I must have missed something. I think a major character involved in the plot comes down to Rumpel. Regina, Snow, or Emma.

[Josephine]

There is supposedly going to be a scene where MM and David are kissing and there is an explosion in the background as they unite. There are set photos backing up some kind of explosion or disturbance of Red and Granny that looks like they are getting blown about. I don't if it's really connected with the kissing scene or not.

But the death could come in another scene.

[hjbau]

Oh i see, You mean where the air seems to be blowing. I think that is like when in the pilot Charming kisses Snow and there is this sort of wave of power or air that is sent out as the curse is broken. So i think the air blowing out is part of the curse being broken, but i actually don't think that it is being caused by Snow and Charming kissing in the real world. I think that it is being caused by something Emma did or something Regina did. Either the breaking of the curse or the resetting of the curse. I don't think it was caused, in this case, by Snow and Charming kissing in Storybrooke.

Guys, please don't take these spoilers too seriously. E! News is notorious for their crappy spoilers. They could have easily been talking about Regina's nightmare sequence or Snow White eating the apple. E! News always turns nothing into something. Trust me guys, they're just screwing us. I can't tell you many times after reading spoilers from E! that I've thought someone important on another show was going to die, but then it turns out it's either a dream or some no name extra.

So yeah, they're probably just taking a scene that we already know about (Snow eating the apple or Regina's dream sequence) and turning it into mass hysteria.

E! News, I see through your lies.

[Josephine]

That's true. E! is usually behind others or exaggerates, especially Kristen. I watch Glee and her scoops are usually stuff we've heard a month before she even reports it or a throwaway line. I tend to prefer TVLine, which I wish would give us more hints of what is going to happen.
