I don’t think you can use the word “we” in that question.
But, here goes. When that question was raised in the article my first reaction was Neal, Hook, Regina and Rumple.
why Rumple? His redemption will be tested, and often a person slips one step back, before they can take two steps foreward. In the long run, fully redeemed.
Why Regina? Same answer.
Why Hook? Same answer. Redemption is a journey, not a season.
Why Neal? Because I’ve had this feeling that roles might be reversed this second half. How much can Neal take before he snaps, breaks down, then stands back up tall and strong. Reversed roles would include Neal finding out his father is still alive somewhere and he might turn to blood magic, black magic, to find him. Neal knows ALOT! He’s seen ALOT. And I’d love to see him get dark for a few episodes. I honestly love the guy, but ther are HUGE gaps in his back story.
Don’t try to change my mind today, I change it myself every other day.
PS. yeah Robin Hoods a thief too. Maybe he’s not above some shady deals.
So, yeah, I don’t trust any of them except the Charmings and Emma, and Belle. Basically, I don’t trust the writers to pull a fast one. Basically they all should be trusted. I just have my guard up
