Theory- the shadow is the sandman. I’m not convinced it is against Malcolm/Pan. While it said Malcolm didn’t belong, it also assisted in turning him to Pan.7
Did it assist Malcolm or did it just tell Malcolm what needed to be done thinking that Malcolm would never go through with it?
That’s a hell of a gamble for the Shadow to take. The Shadow can cart people out of NL, it did so with LittleRumple. So if the Shadow just wanted Malcolm gone, he could have carted them both outta there. Instead, we got the situation that allowed Malcolm to stay, and become a powerful little egomaniac. The Shadow showed Pan the hourglass, which is what set him off on his little mission to find a way around it. Why didn’t the Shadow just let Pan live out his days, and eventually fade away? The Shadow wanted Pan to see that hourglass. I am suspicious of the Shadow’s motives.
So who’s shadow is Neal carrying around in the coconut?! I think my brain is still exploded from the episode tonight. Is it Pan’s or did they actually capture THE shadow that helped create Malcolm Pan?
Yeah I’m wondering that as well.
