I dunno. Rumplestilitskin is pretty cunning. I think he’s going to figure out who Emma is, whether or not she outright tells him at first. He’ll deduce something is up. He can, after all, still glimpse the future.
Past Rumple (to Emma): “You weren’t supposed to interfere with Snow and David. I never foresaw your arrival. And yet, I sense now the future has changed. Tell me who you are if you want my help.
