The chess piece made me suddenly rethink my theory that Alice is a Rumbelle baby. It makes way more sense for Alice to be Rumple and Belle’s but…it gave me pause. As for the mother, Tremaine is a good guess but I think that’s too obvious given the exposition that they have a past.
Hook mentioned that his daughter was locked up by a witch—maybe his daughter is the new Rapunzel
Also, just wanna say that I think this plot is dumb dumb dumb. There’s already so much plot stuffed into this season without adding a random daughter search for a character we have almost no history with!
