Gold’s threat was very real, he meant what he said. Of course he made the threat out of the mood of the current situation with Belle, so somewhat hot-headed, but I am sure, that if any (more) harm would happen to Belle, we would see a furious Gold, lashing out at anyone he helds responsible. Rumple likes to blame others, as he blamed the Blue Fairy for his failure to trust his son and go with him, and likes to shift responsibilities on to others, manipulating them into doing things for his own merit, taking advantage of their wishes and fears, pretending he leaves them any real choices. That was a real threat he made, and I hope it will come back to haunt him. It should.
Higly doubt though that Emma would even consider to kill Gold preemptively, even if it might be her only chance to do it now, when traveling with Gold in our world, when he has no magic to protect him (assuming as well, he will not have magic powers outside of Storybrooke). She might have done some crap in her life, but can’t see her as a person having such thoughts (unless maybe if utterly desperate but don’t see that she is). Emma will do a lot to defend her family, if Gold would indeed be about to attack them, but so far there were just words, an announcement, what Gold would do if. Killing Gold before he actually did something or is attacking – sorry, but that is so not Emma. – So much for point 1 of alleged possible scenarious / outcomes here.
Gold killing Emma – why should he? So far Emma is useful for him and hardly a threat nor standing in his way. And killing her because Gold suddenly realizes on the trip, that because of his threat Emma might eventually consider to kill him – think Gold knows Emma well enough, that she is not the type to kill someone just like that.
Gold convincing Emma his threat is not real – does he has to? Again, don’t see Emma even considering to kill Gold while traveling in our world just because of a wordy threat, and doubt Gold would consider that Emma could have such thoughts. Not to mention, his threat was not not real, he meant it.
With that threat on mind traveling with Gold probably will be awkward for Emma, but think it will be not much of a subject while they travel.
I agree, the writers hardly did that scene with the threat in such a pronounced way for nothing, but think it was necessary to set up some tension between Gold and family Charming , to make things a little more complex again in Storybrooke. Gold will probably soon after returning be under attack, and why should family Charming be on his side without doubts? More drama if they have a reason not to jump to his side all eager to help him.

I agree. I understand why he did what he did, but putting the whole responsibility on the Charming Family is just a way for him to have someone to blame other than himself.
I also don’t think he would kill Emma. So far, she hasn’t done anything but help him really. She has actually been pretty much maintaining some level of peace in the town. At least until Cora decides to change that, and judging from the spoilers, she will. Nor would she kill him–she may not like him or trust him, but it doesn’t give her motive. Even with the threat, I think she will be on her guard–she may feel a bit of sympathy for him, seeing him struggle outside Stroybrooke and all, but I doubt they will be fast friends.
I have a feeling that Emma may not be that easy to kill, even for Rumpelstiltskin. Cora (who is probably almost on par with her former teacher) could not even rip her heart out.
January 30, 2013 at 11:59 pm #170948ZieraParticipantOk, wait….wouldn’t it be that Gold brought magic to the whole world? Not that people would suddenly get magic, but so he could take it with him? Magic is his crutch…and he is a coward, so he takes it with him. I think that he will have magic upon leaving storybrooke. And didn’t he heal belle over the line? 😉 I’m not 100% on that one, but yeah, I think that he will have magic.
And I don’t think Emma will be that scared about his threat… maybe wary, but not like she’d plan on killing him off. We have to remember, Gold didn’t say, “I’m gonna kill your family.” He said If any harm comes to belle.
Charming is also capable of protecting Belle, and nothing could really happen to her unless Hook wants to kill her…which I don’t think would happen.
Also, if what I think about Gold taking his magic with him is true, then Emma can’t kill him…he could just heal himself…and she would need the dagger.And yeah…. 😉
I was thinking about how these family trees are haha…and Snow and Henry are siblings! As well as grandmother/grandson. WEIRD. 😆

No, he placed her back over the line into Storybrooke at the end of “The Outsider” right after she was shot and then he conjured up his fire ball to throw at Hook. Then when the car came down the road, he rolled her to the side of the road, but not back over the line. Then in “In the Name of the Brother” it opens with them clearly back on the Storybrooke side of the line. I just rewatched it just to make sure. 😉
As for Emma, there’s no way she’s trying to devise a way to kill Gold. I just can’t see it in her. She already knows as evidenced by her talk with Hook how much Belle means to him, so she’s going to know that he’s a man who’s hurting. Plus, I didn’t take the threat as just against the Charming family. I took it that he meant the whole town. I can see him just wanting to decimate the whole of Storybrooke if something happened to her after all they’ve been through.
