But it brings up the question of why Blue let the Curse be cast in the first place. If she’s powerful enough to foresee what Bae would become (which is really interesting and something I would never have even considered!) then why couldn’t she see what Rumple was going to do, what Regina would do and stop it.
Didn’t one of the script excerpts have the Seer saying something about a difference between what can be and what will be? Perhaps, if there was a chance of Bae destroying FTL in the future, that was a chance she couldn’t take between “can” and “will”, she simply HAD to take precautions. In doing so, she ended up setting up Rumple finding the curse, which she may not have originally bargained for. Perhaps she’d only planned as far ahead as getting rid of Bae, then she suddenly found herself with the angry Rumple situation on her hands, (he was meant to go with Bae, so she may not have accounted for what actually happened), and had to think on her feet to guide and manipulate all the events beyond that moment as best she could.
I agree that she thought Rumple would be going with Bae and thus didn’t plan for the angry PapaRumple situation that lead to everything else. But I still go back to my major question that’s been plaguing me and led me down this rabbit hole of “the BF is hiding something:” What was she doing for 250 while Rumple put all this together? She got Bae away from Rumple, away from maybe his corrupting influences to save FTL but she could have done the same with Regina to ensure that Rumple could not use her the way he did. (and yes, I know, Blue said the bean she gave to Bae was the last of it’s kind but I think we can call LIES on that). It seems to me that she’s been sitting back and watching as Rumple plans to go after Bae, something that she couldn’t want IF the theory about Bae being worse than the Dark One pans out. And IF she’s behind getting Henry Jr to SB, why would she want that given that he’s Neal (Bae) son with the savior. That only invites Bae back into the lives of the fairy tale characters. Which all leads back to the question of what is her endgame. If she did want Bae out of the picutre, but was content to let Rumple scheme to get everyone to SB, then there is something else she’s hiding.
