Nobody, NOBODY wanted this to happen. They went as dark as they could with Rumple all last Season, to the point where his heart was dying. Then they go through all the trouble of making Rumple a hero this half of the Season, only to backpeddal completely? What we fans really wanted was to see Rumple’s character continue to develop without magic as a crutch. Making him the Dark One again undones all of that completely. To add salt to the wounds, Belle takes him back JUST before it was revealed he reverted back. Not to mention, wasn’t the entire point of this storyarc to destroy the Dark One once and for all? The only “good reason” I could think of for all of this is if the writers want Rumple to willingly give up his powers the next time around. But is that what the writers honestly want to do? We all fear they really did this because they prefer writing Rumple as a villain, and would prefer to continue going that route.
Like I said…at this point I seriously question…is redemption even what Rumpelstilskin truly want? After everything he’s done and been through….when the darkness was literally killing him, is this path truly one he wants to take?
The only chance I see of Rumple making ANY form of a turnaround would be if by some miracle, his own father Peter Pan manages to talk some sense into him. Pan is where it truly all started with Rumple, maybe that’s what it takes to end this once and for all.

Another thing that hurts about Rumple becoming the Dark One again is that he chose to do so as a mere mortal man. This wasn’t Rumple with the darkness inside him manipulating him. He 100% willingly chose to go that route all on his own.
Overall I feel as though the show invited me over for dinner, laid out a feast before me, gave me a couple crumbs, then threw all the food into the trash. And then set the trash can on fire.
Best analogy ever?

You win the Internet tonight. Great summary of the show.

And this wasn’t mere mortal Rumple worried about Bae. This was mere mortal Rumple who really just wants his power back.

Then I guess this is the path he takes…..I think we may need to consider the possibility guys that there may not be redemption for Rumplestilskin.

More like best post ever posted in the forums! (Gives flowers and balloons to @Sapphire) That summary sums up pretty much everything about the show.
Pretty much safe to say that we were so razzle dazzled by seeing Rumple taking the first steps to redemption that we never saw Adam and Eddy creeping up behind us to snatch the rug from under us. (Starts pouring drinks) Who needs a drink?

I swear to heaven…if Belle is pregnant and they use her child as a means to have Rumple *finally* turn over a new leaf and be a good man thereby making Neal *not enough* there won’t be enough tables in the world for me to flip.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"I also dont understand the mechanics of how it even happened. Was the answer literally just squid ink?

I honestly don’t know. I mean I have zero idea because I was too busy screaming.
