I like the idea of PP wanting Henry because of the yin yang magic potential he has. PP could be out for revenge against Rumple because he become the Shadow due to something Rumple did whether as a Lost Boy or the Dark One. For now I lean towards PP being out to destroy not only Rumple but the DO completely and to do that he needs Henry.
They could cast a older, baby-faced actor to play PP. He could look the part of a mid teen PP but have the acting chops to pull the role off.

As has been pointed out before, if PP wanted to destroy Rumple, why go to all the trouble to get the grandson when you have the son already in your possession? It like trading an important “chess piece” for a less important one.

Also, if Emma was PP’s real target, then Snow going dark to protect her daughter would help conclude the Snow’s dark heart plotline.
All magic comes with a price!

It would depend on how PP wanted to destroy him and the nature of the revenge PP’s after. If he wanted emotional devastation Bae is the way to go but perhaps through Henry PP can destroy as in kill Rumple/the Dark One.
I can’t remember this- do PP and his boys know Bae is the DO’s son?
However much he loves Bae I think there are limits to what he will do for him. Magic has been shown to be Rumple’s security blanket, the first chance he has he restores his powers because not having magic makes him feel helpless and vulnerable.
That’s not a knock against the character his conflicting motivations are one of the things I find most interesting about him.June 16, 2013 at 8:39 pm #198531RumplesGirlKeymaster@chianna wrote:

BUT, I strongly suspect that PP knows because he has seen who Bae will become: the father of Henry with Emma, and I think PP wants either both or one of those people.

Yes, that would fit quite nicely!
If in the end this all comes down to PP wanting Emma, I’ve gotta think it’ll be tied somehow into how PP traditionally wanted Wendy as a mother figure for the Lost Boys. Maybe he even wants to marry her, not in the traditional sense, but in the sense that they’d be connected somehow, so their powers were combined, making them an uber powerful supercouple…so to speak.
Maybe we’ll get that “love rhombus” after all, (yes, I know Adam has said he was joking about that). 😛
July 3, 2013 at 10:38 am #199287kfchimeraParticipantI don’t think PP wants Emma-why risk her dying in the failsafe thing? They all thought it might happen. I think he wants Henry, who is special in his own way. I am still going with the possession thing or sacrifice Henry for some reason.

If the Home Office is like the seer he would set the stage up to look like he wanted Henry, when in fact needs Emma since she is more powerful then Rumble and Regina. Besides how else would the Home Office be able to capture Emma, it would be easier to take Henry knowing that Emma and the gang would come after him vs just Snow/PC going after Emma if she was the one taken originally.

Ah, that’s an excellent point. If the purpose of the failsafe was to wipe out everyone else so PP could get the one he wanted, then it wouldn’t make much sense if he really wanted one of the people who would have died in the process.
July 3, 2013 at 11:04 am #199300SlurpeezParticipantSo far, I think it’s safe to conclude a few things:
1) PP wanted Tamara and Greg to destroy SB by triggering the failsafe.
2) Henry would have survived the failsafe because he was born in A Land Without Magic, but everyone from the EF would have died.
3) PP wanted Henry for some greater purpose (possibly PP wanted the heart of a true believer)."That’s how you know you’ve really got a home. When you leave it, there’s this feeling that you can’t shake. You just miss it." Neal Cassidy
