Like Midnight Dreary said, what parent would willingly let their 14 year old child go off to die? It was already established in the episode that running away was no longer an option and Rumple was running out of time. The night he kills the dark one is the night before Bae’s birthday. In a way Rumple was being brave, rather than being a coward and just letting his son get taken away, Rumple went “as far as it takes” in order to protect Bae.
Yes, I know people thought of Rumple as a coward, and he even labeled himself as one, but I actually think he was pretty brave until he became the Dark One. It took a lot of courage to run away from the war. It also took a lot of courage to carry out his plan to save Bae from having to go to war. Also, if he knows Bae really isn’t his son, but he raised him as such, I think that’s pretty brave of him to do so because he could of took the easy way out.
[adrotate group="5"]I think the perception of bravery is being called into question. Is bravery not being afraid or is it being absolutely terrified yet carrying through with a course of action in order to protect the ones you love?
All magic comes with a price!

I don’t think anyone would let their 14-year-old child run off to be killed in an already established unjust war to be sacrificed.
But we don’t know that it was an unjust war. And the situation may have been the dire. They may have really needed the soldiers. It may have been a stay and die or come and fight situation. Though honestly i don’t understand why they didn’t take the parents and not the children. It is just not that simple. And Rumpel had a choice. That is all i am saying.
And Bae was being brave, saying he would go, Rumpel murdering someone to gain power which he then used to harm people for centuries was not brave or good, in my opinion. And really there is never no choice. There is always a choice.
^OH. MY. GOD!!! 😮 😮 😮 THEY LOOK AMAZING!!! Thank you so much posting this! I love Emilie so much right now! 😀

Emilie tweeted a new behind the scenes photo of her and Robert. 😀
This photo is BEAUTIFUL!!! Emilie looks stunning in her new dress! Glad to see that the show gave her a new wardrobe.
…or wait, is that a nightgown? Aww, Belle is standing in Mr. Gold’s backyard in her nightgown. This scene is going to be so cute. 😀
WOW! They look so good together! I can’t wait to see their scenes together.
And thank God Belle is living with Mr. Gold. I hated the idea of Belle living with the nuns. 😯

The minute I decide to stay away from spoilers, THIS is posted! 😮 😮 😮
I. Love. This. Photo!!!!!
Emilie looks so lovely and adorable, and it’s so good to finally see a legit behind the scenes photo between these two. The first one was blurry and there was very little interaction betwen them. But this one is incredible. I can’t wait to see how the scene turns out. 😀@Elle wrote:
I had forgotten about magic coming back–now Emma will truly have no choice, not unless she either is able to get out of it, or if the task is not too dark. Even if Emma is forced, she might be able to find a loophole–Rumpelstiltskin did it himself with his deal with Regina when he promised something tragic would happen to Kathryn.
He’s a master of cleverly wording deals though, and knew exactly how Regina’s mind works, so he could choose the right words to trick her into it. Emma’s not quite that savvy.
Concerning the Blue Fairy, I don’t think she will have much power. Rumpelstiltskin does not like them, and since their magic does not react well with his, he will probably do what he can to make sure they have little to no power, and since he made the curse and the True Love potion, it might not be too hard.
Guess it’ll depend on how this returned magic works. Will those who had magic automatically get those same powers back? Or will they have to re-learn it, and if so, could people who didn’t have it before use it now?

Rumple was desperate and had no other options when he killed the dark one. It was Bae’s birthday and the soldiers were on their way to take him away. Rumple had already been through an ogre war so he knew what it was like and didn’t want the same fate for Bae.
He had another option. He could have let Bae go. That is what Bae wanted. He could have tried to run again.

Agreed. I’m not a parent, but would imagine that even the biggest pacifist could be driven the violence if it was the only means of protecting the life of their child. So I don’t find it out of character at all that Rumple resorted to that in order to protect Bae from a certain death if he was dragged off to war.

In my book, it’s not a cowardly act to avoid fighting in a war. That’s just good sense IMO! Pre-Dark One Rumple gets a bad wrap for being a coward, but I have a huge soft spot for him. He was a simple, peace loving man, who had had his heart broken, didn’t have much in life, but was dedicated to using what little he did have to give his son the best possible chance in life.

YAY, cute pic! 😀 PS. I want her hair.
Edited to add that this pic confirms that we’ll be getting some Rumbelle moments in ep 4, (and the fact that it looks like she might be wearing a nightie suggests we’ll be seeing private moments with them at home, as opposed to out and about in town), and if the flashbacks are going to mirror that relationship at all, it makes me think even more that this Milha character will be Rumple’s ex.

I always miss everything when I’m work. Then, when I came home, I read another spoiler at Fan Forum and Tumblr about Gold shooting scenes with a “fat guy”, not my words, the person who saw it words, inside Gold’s house, but I couldn’t post because the board was acting funny. 😥
The not so thin man isn’t Grumpy for sure, and the person ruled out Maurice even though he/she wasn’t familiar with his character. So I’m not sure who it is if it’s someone that’s been on the show before.
I’m going to rule out it being a dwarf because besides Grumpy, they’ve never had any interaction with Rumple, and aside from Grumpy, right now I don’t think any of the other dwarves will get their own storyline because there’s so many other characters to focus on.
I guess it could be King George or Gepetto. I don’t consider them “fat”, but I didn’t really consider Lee Arenberg to be rather large either, yet I guess some people do. 😥 However, if the person knows what Grumpy looks like, then I’m guessing they would also know King George and Gepetto too.
So it’s likely a new character I guess maybe Smee since he would be “fat”, and it would make sense for him to be on an episode with Captain Hook/Beaman and interact with Gold.
Here’s the spoiler in question, that I copied from FanForums,
