This is from Lily Spark’s review of the episode. Someone care to explain?
3. Hey, Rumple, if Hades needs your blood to bring a living soul into the Underworld, then isn’t your unborn baby actually quite safe from behind taken by him, UNLESS you help him make this portal?
That’s a brilliant point I hadn’t considered. Maybe the contract is magical and is a loophole that will let Hades bring a living being to the underworld since it is binding? Perhaps Hades can’t bring someone against their will to the underworld, but if they are willing and/or their parent willing ceded their rights to said child then it works?
