I don’t think Bae as Peter works. Bae is a sweet boy who just wants his father back and wants a normal life. Peter is a cocky show off who doesn’t have much of an understanding of compassion and always seeks out adventure.
I don’t know about that. We’ve seen Season 2 stills of Henry seemingly floating outside his bedroom window already. In the upcoming TV Guide issue, Josh Dallas talked about Emma & Henry’s dad. Here is what he said: “there is a certain percentage of this man that Emma knows, and a certain part that she doesn’t. She had some sort of relationship with him, but there is an element of surprise for Emma as to the fullness of who this man is.”
It makes sense to me that if Bae is indeed Peter Pan, Emma would not know this and only know him as a child of 14 onwards. The surprise would be that she finding out his true FT identity. Henry, being his son, might inherit his special “flying” abilities. Seems to me it’s looking more and more like a probability.
When I saw those pictures, my thought was that Henry was trying to either run away or sneak inside the house by climbing out or into the window- you can see the rope made of sheets he used to climb if you look closely, and Regina stopped him with magic and lifted him up the same way her mother once lifted her when she was angry. I don’t think Henry was flying by choice.
Having him be Peter would require a lot of explanation as to why Peter was not in Neverland anymore and ended up growing up.
It isn’t completely implausible, I suppose, but I’m not fond of that theory. It just feels too complicated.
I think a more simple explanation is that Bae merely ended up in our world when he went through the portal, grew older, and met Emma.
