Here is where I’m still having issues: the way Gold was presented the one time we saw him in Welcome To SB and the way he was here.
In Welcome to SB, he was obviously cursed with false memories and was generally confused about whatever Regina was talking about.
But in Save Henry, he was much more Rumple than he was the Gold we saw in Welcome to SB. He’s actually standing in his shop in 309, impatient, waiting for Regina, almost as if he knows she’s coming about the baby.

I didn’t get that from it. Clearly, he was thinking about *something* in the beginning of that scene, and I thought he might have been wrestling with subconscious feelings planted by the curse, but I didn’t think he was impatient.

His drumming his fingers over and over. It’s a normal sign of impatience, IMO.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Or boredom. That was how I read it.
And while we read lots into their interaction, there’s nothing that he said that requires him to have had his memories. But he had has 18 years with Regina in the cursed state (with time not really moving, of course, for whatever that does). And whatever past their memories gave them.

ok i have a theory that will make no sense.
postulate 1: supposedly this is a land without magic.
except that postulate 2: people can still rip out hearts, and make memory potions, and make spinning tophats, and make people lose their memories through windmills, that look awesome, oh and see neverland shadows and have creatures that perform magic like the dragon.
postulate 3: therefore, what if rumple’s prophesy gift is of a different magical part. now hear me out.
postulate 4: let us say that mr. gold did not know of prophesies as such but what about sixth sense esp sort of thing, he had some sort of precognition that the mr. gold part of himself couldn’t explain but that he couldn’t discount. that part of his brain said “take this specific child because it will annoy the heck out of Regina and maybe in the future prove useful for … something.”
(this was a not well thought out theory that i pondered at the bus stop this afternoon)
Magic always comes with a price, so I pay with visa.

Interesting. I like it. And it would explain some of the mannerisms of 309
