If Neal is Bae, then not only would seeing a pic of Rumple in the box convince him that August had connections and knew the truth, but it’d probably also scare him into complying.

Exactly. I just don’t buy the dagger drawing, because August knowing about the dagger isn’t that scary if Neal/Bae has every reason to believe that Papa is still in FTL. It’s a shock but not an immediate threat. Learning that his father is here and that a curse is involved poses a more immediate threat, so it just seems like a much better attention grabber. Especially with all the hinting that Bae won’t be happy to see Rumple.

Agreed. A drawing of the dagger may convince him that August knew something, but a photo of Papa Dearest wearing a snappy suit as he strolls down the main street of SB with his cane, THAT is gonna put the fear of God into Nealfire and force him to listen. So when August tells him that Emma has a role in breaking Rumple’s curse, he’s gonna have no choice but to cooperate.

honestly, when i think back… in fairytale land, pinocchio was very good to help his dad with all this wood-works…, i remember that he was making a wooden fish or something like that, while prince charming and snow had the meeting at the round table just before the curse came…

It was a whale. There’s a moment when August goes to see Marco in his workshop in SB when he sees it still sitting on his shelf.
