I’m not convinced about this one. I think in the last episode they showed us that Gold is ready to put his walls down, at least a bit. He began to realise how lonely he actually is and that it is impossible to live like this in the long run. Earlier he didn’t allow himself to think about it. It was only when he was going through an emotionally tough situation that he needed human contact.
The scenes where people kept asking him if he’s there for the rent were very funny, but at the same time somehow sad. They made him realise that there is noone he has connected to so far in SB, and that realisation shook him, I think.
