Silver Slippers!! :D

[jessieparadoxes of people]

I have a really weird and probably easily disproventheory as to who “Her” is.Maybe she’s Dorothy from the Wizard of Oz.In 2×5,Rumple says,”What about the slippers?”
JEFFERSON:Ah.Couldn’t find ’em.Heard talk they’d already moved to another land.
RUMPLE:That’s what I needed to *get* to that other land!
Now as far as I know,the only slippers that travel between worlds are those ruby slippers,and from what Rumple said,it sounded as if those slippers could transport to our world….maybe he wanted them as a backup or something?????Now what if Dorothy were from some land similar to our own(actually called the “Land of Kansas” maybe.Lol) and was whisked away to the land of Oz.But instead of returning to her world she came here.Or maybe she’s not Dorothy.Perhaps she’s another witch(the Wicked Witch of the South! ) who stole the slippers and came here.
This theory depends on the reaction that Her has to the video that Greg sent her(we as the audience *have* to know her reaction somehow!!!!!).If she thinks that Greg is losing his marbles and faked the vid or posts the vid to the internet like nearly anyone does when they find something weird,we might assume she’s an ordinary person who needs Rumple to erase her memory.On the other hand,if she suspiciously urges him to keep poking around,is not truly surprised by magic,or we find out she’s just pretending to be surprised and has a secret agenda to get to SB,we might have reason to believe she’s from another realm.And it seems unlikely she was brought here with the Dark Curse;so it must have been the ruby slippers(or something we don’t yet know about….).She also might have come through the bridge between here and Neverland.In that case she has nothing to do with Dorothy or the Land of Kansas. 😐 But i do think we’re eventually going to see those slippers crop up later in the show.

Elphaba, wicked witch of the west…. wants the slippers just as bad as Rumpel… Probably more, they are her sister’s… See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wicked_%28musical%29 And I do believe Disney owns the rights.

So….do you think Elphaba might have come to SB in search of the slippers((assuming this theory is true))?

Not has, but will… and Greg is her henchman (and maybe husband)
And who knows, maybe the evil queen kidnapped Dorethy on arrival in storybrooke. I mean she needed to create Storybrooke and it’s background, but had no idea what our world looked like, so how would shedo that? Kidnap a human

Disney does not own the rights to Wicked, Universal does. In fact, Disney’s Oz The Great and Powerful has a quite different background in store for the Wicked Witch of the West. Also, keep in mind that the slippers were only ruby in the film version of The Wizard of Oz, while they are actually silver in the original book. Unless Disney wants to pay royalties to Turner, who owns the film, I think there’s more of a chance that the slippers will be silver on Once, if shown at all.

Good point,Itachilshtar! I didn’t think about that!

Yes, I think that Rumple and Jefferson’s convo about the slippers that went to a land that Rumple wanted to get to had to be the slippers from Wizard of Oz, and I doubt they’d have just dropped that mention completely randomly, I believe they were setting up a future storyline where we see Dorothy. The Wizard and Dorothy is currently my fave theory as to who Greg and Her will be.

This isn’t strictly a spoiler, really more just speculation, but Jane Espenson recently randomly (or was it?) tweeted this:

…and I wondered if perhaps she'd been writing something Dorothy related for the show, (though she told someone who asked that it had been nothing more than a random thought that popped into her head). Also, she recently mentioned in an interview regarding the identity of “Her”: “I think that's the kind of thing you should expect to find out probably this season.”

This is getting really exciting!!!!!!!! 😀 😀 😀 And,HA!!!! I knew we should find out about “Her”!!!!!! Also,Ive heard that possibly the Cowardly Lion is also Rumple’s dad.If that is true….do you think that may be how he heard about the slippers?

Well, according to a deleted scene from Manhattan Rumple's dad died when he tried abandoning him, and Rumple actually saw him get killed in person.

[jessieparadoxes of people]

Yes,that is very true….what I mean is perhaps his father had him after his adventure with Dorothy and told Rumple all about it before he tried abandoning Rumple…
