Does the Blue Fairy/Mother Suprior remember?

[darcyfarrow]

Rewatching this episode, I’m convinced MS knows exactly who she is and who everyone else is. Pinnicchio came to SB at age 7; the information that August has about Rumple and Bae is too sophisticated to have been learned through childhood tales. To understand not only what the dagger is and how it works, but also the complex relationship between Rumple and Bae –that,’s adult-level stuff. Pinnochio may have come to SB knowing a few tales about Rumple, but most of what August knows, I’m convinced, is recent knowledge gained from Mother Superior.

Then how did he procure Henry, who just happened to be the Saviour’s son, if he knew nothing for 28 years? Incredible odds of obtaining just the right kid … I think Gold reacted because Emma was finally there. The endgame was beginning ..

Perhaps while he was in prison, Rumple planted two bits of information so deep into his subconcious that the curse didn’t fog them over. One of those bits would be the name trigger; the other, a command to find Henry (assuming he saw that far into the future).

Or perhaps he didn’t find Henry. Perhaps MS did and arranged for Gold to “procure” him…without Gold being aware of the arranger behind the curtain.

This is the idea I’m leaning towards now. Kitsis and Horowitz confirmed in that chat they did on Facebook the other day that Mr Gold only remembered when he heard Emma’s name. So there’s simply no way he could have consciously brought Snow and Charming’s grandson to town for Regina.

So this is the new theory I’ve cooked up…
Mother Superior, still with all her memories, kept tabs on Emma all through the 28 years. When MS became aware that Emma was about to have a child, MS wanted to ensure that that child was kept safe, and the best place for him would be right under her nose in Storybrooke. So at that time, MS somehow planted the seed for Regina wanting a child. Maybe she suggested that a child would bring something into her life that was lacking. So Regina went to Mr Gold, coz he was the go to guy in FTL when you wanted to deal in the baby trade. Then Mr Gold went to MS, who, as the head of the convent, would be most likely to know of any children in town who were in need of being adopted.

My question out of all this is how does Henry figure out that his birth mother is the savior? Is there a discussion thread on the forums already?
