I wonder what their answer about Rumple reverting means – it’ll have a profound effect on him how?!?!?!?!? ugh, so excited!
I reckon he’s gonna go to the darkest place he’s ever been to emotionally. Which is saying something, because he’s already been to some dark places. K&H keep saying that NL is a place that makes you confront your past, and who you truly are. Rumple thinks his son is dead. Rumple orchestrated the Curse, manipulated many people, destroyed a whole world, to get to his son. Who is now dead. All that hurt he caused, was for nothing. Is it any wonder Rumple thinks he’s on a suicide mission? Death is what he thinks he deserves.
Under normal circumstances, the Charmings could most definitely rely on Rumple more than they could Regina. But I reckon Rumple’s gonna block everyone else out to go and meet the fate he believes awaits him all on his own.
And Robert Carlyle is gonna break my heart into a million itty bitty pieces in the process.
