As Mr. Gold said “Never underestimate someone who is acting for their child.”
A few more details were released!!!
“August promises to enlighten Emma and take her on a journey that will show her how she can beat Regina, and possibly take custody of Henry; and with Mary Margaret returning to work, Regina puts a plan in motion to seduce David. Meanwhile, in the fairytale land that was, with the Evil Queen’s curse about to strike, Geppetto agrees to a plan that will save Snow White and Prince Charming’s daughter, but with a proviso that could also save his own son.”
I love that Emma is going to try and get custody of Henry even though i think she will probably lose this round. I hope not.
Thanks for the new info, Lissy! 😀
I read that summary on ksitetv. Shame on Gepetto for being so selfish. I am very disappointed in him right now 🙁
What makes you think Gepetto was being selfish? We don’t know the details yet- it sounds to me like this was a plan to help Emma- therefore not selfish at all, and probably not even Gepetto’s idea in the first place.
It could play out a couple of different ways, and I’m guessing he was purposefully sent by Blue Fairy as Emma’s protector. But even if it turns out that it was a request that Geppetto made, I can hardly fault him for trying to see if there was a way to save his child. Surely every parent in FTL would have tried to save their child from the curse to end all curses if they were in a position to do so.
I don’t think Gepetto is being selfish. He wants to save his son. Any parent would do it. Besides, we don’t have enough details on the matter to criticize just yet.
I hope Emma is able to get custody of Henry too. However, I can’t help but think she’ll lose this battle too. 🙁
Geppetto does come off badly if he does one of two things. One if he sends Pinocchio through the wardrobe taking a chance and not knowing for certain that Emma would be able to go through as well. Two if he sends Pinocchio through the wardrobe when Snow could have gone with Emma meaning there is some sort of really two people could have gone through clause.
And even if he does any of this behind Snow and Charming’s back i am not really going to like hey that was the right thing to do. It is what it is though. I mean this is the fate of the world. You don’t chance it, in my opinion.
And they could totally play it so that only Pinocchio is the exception because he isn’t really a boy, but a puppet made from wood.
I have a sneaky suspicion that the Blue Fairy is not the most upstanding individual that ever existed. I think that Mr. Gold/Rumple is pretty by the book and for him to dislike the Fairies is a credible offense. My guess is that the Blue Fairy wanted to save Pinocchio as badly as Geppheto did. She is after all his fairy god mother…I am sure they made a bargain that included Pin being sent through as well. I just don’t like that Fairy…she seems sneaky. Especially after watching her in the Dreamy episode…she seems like a female version of Rumple with a bit less moral integrity.
