Hmmm, that’s got me wondering how the queen would react if Rumple did become human again. Would she destroy him–out of revenge or out of insecurity–or would she brush her hands together, say “that’s that” and walk away, go back to her Snow vendetta?
I’m curious about that too. They seemed to have some sort of rivalry going on, but we’ve yet to learn the details of it. Personally, I believe Rumpelstiltskin is the one who gave her the powers in the first place, and now she’s trying to overthrow her master.
