Not to mention the fact that in Manhattan they were paralleling Milah/Rumple with Emma/Neal.
You did this because a seer told you to?
You left me because Pinnochio told you to?
Seriously, if they’re trying to set up Swanfire as endgame, they’re doing it wrong.
I agree. And it goes back to what I’ve been saying. Neal is not only like his dad, in that he’s a coward, his actions, abandoning Emma when he needed her the most, taking the easy way out — that was exactly like Milah.
And the fact that neither of them tried to make it work. And the funny thing is, most Oncers generally hate Milah because of what she did but the irony is that, Neal abandoning Emma because he couldn’t try for her and taking the easy way out, is exactly the same thing his mom did to Rumple. And fans love him for it.
