Who Do You Think the death is?

Hook or Neal…but I’m sad to say that the death of Henry or Snowing Baby would rock this family to the core, bringing a lot of drama for Season 4. But I have high doubts on Snowing baby…

All evidence points to Neal.

– Not being seen at the showdown nor in the Hook/Henry scene both of which take place in 3×16.

– Kollie saying not only was the death filmed but the “jersey story” took place last week, and in the back you can see them setting up cameras for filming in the graveyard.

– Almost all the characters are wearing formal clothing appropriate for a funeral in the pics(sides Hook whom always wears the same costume).

– The person whom posted the story answered an ask saying a funeral was being filmed when she was on set, but has since deleted the ask.

– The cast present when the person went to set and spent the day with them included everyone but Robert, Michael, and Rebecca. However if Rumple is being controlled by the Witch and the Witch is responsible for the death it makes sense why they would not be there.

All evidence is unfortunately stacking up against Neal even though I don’t want anybody to die.

Belle or Bae………

For storyline purposes, Belle’s death would give Gold so much to do (though it would be awful). Bae’s would as well, except that  Belle is his rock and we saw that with her help (in the S2 finale), he was at least stable. Of course no doubt he would always have been shattered, but she would be there for him, loving him, helping him through it. Much as he adores his son, Bae is not Gold’s rock, not (as Bobby continues to put it) his emotional center, his strength. Without Belle, I think he’d just shatter and probably suffer a break down.  There are many reasons not to kill her, of course………My gut tells me she’s safe, but barely.

Neal………and Hook.

Well really, it came down to a process of elimination. I don’t think anyone in the Charming family will ever die…..

So whoever actually dies on SCREEN, I am only predicting this: this is more or less singling the death toll for ONCE. I can’t fathom any logical reason to kill any of these characters. Graham was killed to A) show how far Regina would go to keep the Curse intact and B) demonstrate just what you could loose by breaking the curse.

That’s pretty dramatic……I’m not sure I agree. I don’t think ONCE has more than a year or two left anyway, but having little to do with the death,. I could find reasons for these characters to die, but just as many (or more) for reason to live, especially Belle and Bae.  I will say that fans of the character who might already be ticked off may just end up quitting altogether (IMO, Belle/Rumbelle fans would be more likely to do this because they’re already on edge to say the least)

Of course, Belle generally gets zippo in terms of story and Rumbelle is hardly on, so she’s the most logical one.

What is it you always tell me, ‘that’s ok we can disagree.” 😉

It is dramatic so let me revise.

Yes, there are obviously reasons for characters to die: Snow dies in childbirth, Hook’s goes down with his ship, Belle is locked up in a tower and starved to death, Neal falls down a portal and actually dies this time. A and E can write any kind of death and clearly already have. What I mean is that it’s unnecessary. None of these characters are disposable. They all have some sort of story to tell be it redemption road or reaching redemption and then living as a new sort of person. They are a unit–a bizarre, totally messed up, insane little family unit of specialness. Fairy tales have loses but we’ve already killed Rumple’s father, Regina’s mother (and father), and Snow’s first protector (and father and mother). This little band–our little players–should be safe because there is far more story to tell with all of them.

Hook’s continued redemption and path of good form (leaving aside shipping)

Neal’s journey as a father and son  (leaving aside shipping)

Regina’s journey to try and fill the hole in her heart

Rumple’s path to his happy ending with Nealfire and his happily ever after with Belle

Belle’s continued attempt to make Rumple a better man and make him go back to the best version of himself.

Henry’s journey into being a young man and learning that life isn’t black and white

Snow’s first steps at being a mother

Charming’s entire family history and being both father and king

And Emma…the freaking SAVIOR who is supposed to bring back the happy endings.

How does a savior bring back the happy endings if you take away any one of those characters?

So while yes, there are show and story reasons that A and E have come up with to justify killing one member of this little unit, in the grand scheme of things it doesn’t make sense and I think audience members are going to be turned off.
