Re: Reactions to Rumple’s Actions

[Slurpeez]

There’s no doubt that Mr. Gold/Rumple obsesses over the finer points of a contract, and I believe he is usually a master manipulator. Yet, I’m not so sure Rumple is always so leveled headed, since there was that time he murdered Milha and cut off Hook’s hand. Also, there was that time that Rumple vigorously shook Belle, his one true love, for trying to kiss him and then yelled at the mirror so Regina would hear him. And there was that time Regina got the better of Rumple by locking away the woman he rejected for 28 years and he thought she was dead. And there was that time again when Mr. Gold unleashed the wraith on Regina (though justifiably). There was also the time he smashed the items in his pawn shop when he found out he couldn’t cross the town line. Mr. Gold has nearly beaten to death people with his cane of pain and had to be stopped by Emma and Belle from offing Moe French and Killian Jones. Finally, Mr. Gold really lost his cool with Emma when he threatened to use force to find out more about his son. Oh, and there’s still the question of Henry’s precarious fate at the moment. So, as much as I love Rumple, that man still makes a lot of wrong decisions. It’s going to be a long road.
