I agree. The idea of Rumpel finally have a moment is good, but this does cheapen it. I think that the Blue Fairy should have been the final villain against Rumpel instead of what they did with adding in the black fairy. Rumpel doing his will they, won’t they against a real character that has been around for awhile would have been much better then this fake Rumpel.
This show really made a huge writing error with all these half season arc villains because you just know that nothing is going to come of it. They come. They talk. They die. There has been no build of story and character in years. There has been no twisting of the stories in years. Instead, stuff just randomly pops up out of nowhere and then they have filler for half a season and they die and that’s it.
Hopefully, this will be mostly about them letting Rumpel talk and not fake Rumpel.
