Unpleasant Crack Theory: So this morning I saw a few awesome tweets between MRJ and Michael Coleman and it got me thinking about some things. Neither of these guys have had much interaction with the regular OUAT cast in S3B aside from a few random things between the guys they worked with the most (RC and the other dwarves) but here they are being awesome towards each other in a totally non Once conversation. It stuck out to me this morning and I had some random thoughts about it. I remember very well the nightmare that MC went through with the SQ fans who egged him on and made him mad enough that he said some not good things on Twitter. We’re pretty sure that Happy isn’t anywhere to be found in the finale and was probably a flying monkey casualty since he’s not listed in the press release and we honestly have NO clue what they’re going to do with this whole BTTF time change plot they set up last week. We’d been thinking that something BTS was to blame for MRJ being let go and if we’re right with the trolls not fixing this mess and MO322 not happening, then I have a new crack theory on why he was written out in such a weirdly off way. What if MRJ stood up to everyone behind the scenes about what happened to MC? He would know more than anyone how bad the fans are and how angry you can feel when reading some of their crap so he might have been more sensitive to this situation than the others and not been as upset with anything he said on Twitter. What if he went to bat for MC and rather than the trolls deal with it like adults and move on (we know these guys are like big kids in a playroom about this show), they decided they would just get rid of both actors who seemed to be honking off all the fans (not that MRJ honked off anyone but we all know that the fans were horrible to him for most of his time on the show) and make it look like it was part of the show’s story for both Neal and Happy to die in the Zelena story? The timing of everything just screams out at me because it was right around the time they were working out all the S3B details and had even started filming some stuff at that point. Happy was around for part of the story but he’s been missing ever since and we obviously know what happened to Neal. Would they be that shallow and fire two actors for not wanting to take crap from fans anymore? I’ve been feeling like a BTS thing had to have happened for this death to come so out of the blue after 2.5 years of story build up and boy does this crack theory upset me for making so much sense. I hope I’m wrong but these two guys have always seemed like great friends and I can totally see MRJ not wanting a friend to get hung out to dry after the fans treated him like crap. It would explain a lot of the Twitter silence too since it would be a topic they wouldn’t want to bring up again during the show and yet it’s also something that time would heal for them (i.e. JMo randomly bringing up MRJ in an interview after months of silence). Thoughts?

I REALLY hope I’m wrong on this one. 😥
