    Something else that occurred to me in the chat, if Cora’s in peasant clothes when she gives birth to WW, then it can’t be Rumple. B/c she met Rumple after she attended the ball. I think the baby daddy is probably somebody else.

    Yup. Had the same thought. This is pre-Rumple, pre-Miller’s Daughter. The father is probably the Wizard who waltzed in and out of her life–Just like in the book “Wicked”

    If the WickedSisters theory holds up (given the photo lends credence to the argument) then Regina’s life becomes even more tragic. Rumple’s manipulations would then have been of an innocent and Regina need not have been destined to be evil and that exchange with Regina in 2×02 “We Are Both” makes sense. If this all pans out I want Rumple to be on his knees begging Regina’s forgiveness plus Snow and David doing a little reevaluating of their own. A worry I would have though is that the revelation would drive Regina back down the hole in despair at the thought of having been turned and left hopeless and alone. If that’s the case then that extended family of her’s had better get hope and love into her life pronto.

    And they are casting for the Wizard, so it’s definitely not going to be Rumple as the Wizard.

    What if the baby daddy is Eva’s father or brother?  Eva tripped Cora and it looked like she had an instinctive desire to hurt her, perhaps there’s history there where Eva as a young girl saw Cora, but Cora didn’t realize who she was.   Maybe Cora’s father was once a well-to-do miller.

    In fact, I’ve kind of been wondering if they might touch “Puss in Boots” at some point as it too references a miller AND a shape-shifting ogre, and a talking cat of course who wants some footwear, but not sure how or where that would fit in.

    I don’t know either but now it must happen.

    Weren’t Rumple’s manipulations already of an innocent though? It’s not like Regina ever did anything to him to kickstart his corruption of her, so I don’t really see how WickedSisters being true would make the situation any more tragic. I think it was just Regina’s crappy fate to be the one to cast the Curse, and so one way or the other, she’d have gone dark. Rumple knew enough pieces of the puzzle that he could snark about “snow white” to Cora, and he knew her child would be important to him, and he’d known for ages that someone other than him would cast the Curse, so I think Regina’s role in it all was sadly inevitable.

    Here’s how I see it, from Rumple’s PoV the darkness was foreordained to consume the curse caster and as a result he didn’t mind that happening to Regina so long as it got him to Bae, she would be collateral damage.  However, if the Wicked Witch is a child of Cora, then as a result of influencing the wrong kid Rumple manipulated and corrupted someone whose fate would have otherwise been innocent and whose destiny in my opinion is not to be an Evil Queen condemned for all time. Considering the  initial contract with Cora provides the clues, he wanted her first born child, who he knew to be a girl. Now Rumple by his own admission knows his farsight is imperfect, that said Rumple in the EF is incredibly arrogant as a result of the knowledge he gains from that ability. Pride goeth before a fall as the saying says.  If the Wicked Witch is a child of Cora’s and more specifically an elder child then Regina’s tragedy is to have passed through the 9 levels of hell when by rights it should have been the elder sister’s fate.

    While I see what you’re saying I also think that you’re neglecting what his foresight did tell him–it told him that Regina would cast the curse. Once you have that information, why bother going sussing out the details? You have what you need (Regina will cast the curse) and while Rumple did look for alternatives (the slippers for instance, or the bean long before that) the fact remains that he believed it was Regina. And if Cora tried (as it appears) to cover up a child from long before Rumple then he wouldn’t even bother going to look for that information because his foresight told him it was Regina.

    Are you sure it’s peasant grab?  It looks like sleeping dress kinda like Snow to me.  Also if she is trying to hide the birth of this child I don’t think she would have her in they castle.

    to me it is, but also the bed is fairly brown and dirty and looks rather homespun. It’s not the luxe quality I associate with royalty. Now it could be her Instagram filter or the lightening, what have you…but to me it looks like poor accommodations.
