^I was thinking that it would be interesting if Gold lost his powers too.
I think they want us to believe that Henry is the boy in the prophesy, and it is definitely looking that way right now. Henry wants to get his camera, so they go back to Neal’s apartment, Hook finds Rumple and stabs him, and maybe loses his powers or dagger as a result. So Henry –>(lots of stuff happens)–> Gold’s undoing.
But as some people have pointed out, and as Robert mentioned in an interview yesterday, Henry might not be the “boy”. It would be interesting if Gold believed that the prophesy was being fulfilled before his very eyes, but it actually wasn’t. It means there’s a further undoing for Rumple…and it boggles my mind to think what the writers have planned.
Spoilery for 2×18: I still think the child who is “not what he seems” is August. Maybe Baelfire dies saving child!Pinocchio or something and that causes Rumple to go mental. Hm. *is shot*
Man, one week until the MIller’s Daughter, and I already feel bad for Snow. 😥 If she does something bad, I just know she’ll hate herself for a long time.
