Well, if it turns out that that Henry’s father is Bae, then maybe the tables got turned on Bae. Whatever happened, he started to go to jail with her but the opportunity to leave came up and he took it. Maybe he is feeling the same pain Rumple felt and regretted not going with her.
That’s a very interesting the idea. The parallels would be very interesting to explore if that’s the case. Baelfire spent his childhood trying to help return Rumpel back to the loving father he once was. It would be sad to learn that Baelfire made all of these sacrifices only to wind up making the same mistakes his father did. Tragic irony. 😥
