@ Phee So appreciate your ideas and candor. Have you seen the release for the title of the finale? A land without Magic…
It will be interesting to see how your theory pans out.
Yes, I saw that not long after I’d posted my lil theory! Curiouser and curiouser. Hmmmmm. 😉

So I think it is generally agreed that there has to be some higher agenda with Rumplestiltskin. I think it is unlikely that he can see the future, but since he manipulates so many things, he can read more signs than others and see how things are trending.
Funny you say that. Only about an hour ago it occurred to me pretty much out of nowhere that that’s exactly what Mr Gold was doing that time that David came into his shop. At the time, I read much debate about which item Mr Gold had wanted David to be drawn to, the unicorn mobile, or the windmill. He almost seemed to push David towards the mobile at first, but then he still smiled when he saw the windmill. Now it suddenly seems obvious to me that he wasn’t actually trying to steer David in one direction or the other. He’d just set up both items as a test, so he could get an idea of David’s state of mind, so he’d know how to set up the next moves in his grand plan. The smile wasn’t, “Yes, he chose the windmill, he doesn’t remember,” it was, “Thank you David for giving me the information I needed.”
