Does that look like little Bae on that page to anyone else?? I didn’t think Bae was in the book, but if he is then I am going to say that Blue wrote this book because no one knew about Bae once he left EXCEPT Blue.

Someone in another forum brought up a theory about the “steep price” August is asked to pay in exchange for a cure that will stop or slow down his transformation. They said it might be money. Namely, Neal/Emma’s $20000. ^It could be a pay-off in the photo above. Who knows?

So, I was under the impression that August just burned all this money while living and hiding away in Phuket. But it would be clever trick of the writers if they just lead us to believe that. I mean, Pinocchio = untrustworthy = money gone, right? 😆

But could there be a chance that August kept some of that money? And was planning to, I dunno, give it back to Emma one day after the curse broke? Could be a unexpected twist.

I think it would be sad if he was asked to give most of it up in exchange for being human – the complete opposite of being “selfless, brave, and true” like the BF told him to be.

If you go to the ABC website below this photo it states:

Selfless, Brave and True – Secrets of The Dragon
ONCE UPON A TIME – “Selfless, Brave and True” – The Dragon displays a mysterious vial that may hold a cure for whomever can pay his price.

Good catch, RumplesGirl!! That looks exactly like Young Bae–wow – I wonder what else is in that book? I didn’t know his story was in there either. I am a Blue Suspector.

Very good catch RG.

I’m going throw another outlandish theory out here in regards to the book, Henry getting to Storybrooke and August

I think it is entirely possible that Blue wrote it but I was thinking August could have also helped Blue to write it after learning that Emma gave birth to the grandson of Rumpelstiltskin once he realized just how much Neal & Emma loved each other.

I think August more then likely went to Blue and told her what he had done to them both in order to set Emma on the path to get to Storybrooke and break the curse. Blue probably realized then that they needed to add Baelfire’s story into the book and make sure that they got Emma & Bae’s son Henry to Storybrooke in order to help her break the curse.

Blue probably told August that his actions in destroying a family would have consequences unless it was repaired before the curse was broken which would explain why he is still wooden now that the curse is broken.

Is this too outlandish ?

Almost nothing is too outlandish on this show, but I don’t think this looks likely. It is an interesting what if scenario though, to think about what Blue might have told August to do mid-curse, but she didn’t have her memories. The writers have apparently tweeted to confirm that, but also we haven’t been shown that she remembered anything.

He remained wood because his state had nothing to do with the curse, but the conditions of the blessing that turned him into a boy in the first place. When Pinnochio became a real boy, the Blue Fairy told him something like “Remember Pinnochio, be brave, truthful and unselfish, so long as you do that you will remain a real boy.” I think that is why he slowly started turning back to wood, rather than all at once. Every wrong action resulted in the magic adjusting his appearance, just like in the original Disney movie version his nose grew little by little. So over time, his past caught up with him and he was almost all wood after visiting Storybrooke. He lied a lot once he came to town, and did some selfish things like trying to take Rumples’ dagger. So that hurried along his transformation to the point where he was completely back to wood. Once Rumpel brought magic back, however, Pinnochio was then animated enchanted wood, so he could move again.

“If I had a world of my own, everything would be nonsense. Nothing would be what it is, because everything would be what it isn't. And contrary wise, what is, it wouldn't be. And what it wouldn't be, it would. You see?” -- Lewis Carroll, Alice's Adventures in Wonderland & Through the Looking-Glass
