I KNOW, I KNOW!!! I just heard the news! I am over the moon about this. I’ve been praying that ABC would make Emilie a regular, and my prayers have been answered. 😀
I know! I squealed like a crazy person when I saw the news a few weeks ago. 😀 😀 😀

Guys, my brain just exploded with a ton of new theories. A few members made some very interesting posts in another thread about Rumpel’s role in the final battle, and I thought I’d bring them over here for you guys to debate over. 😀

^THIS. I’ve been wondering about the strength of the borders between the worlds for quite some time now. A curse as powerful as the Dark Curse would have seriously damaged the lines between our reality and the next. I hope we get more insight into that next season. That might be the “final battle” that Rumpel was talking about. Why would Rumpel want to fight an Apocalyspe immediately after he finds his son? He made the curse so that he could find his son, so why would he attach an Apocalypse onto it? It makes no sense. But I could easily see the bleeding of worlds into one another as the big “final battle” that he referring to. That definitely sounds definitely sounds like an Apocalypse.

Thank God I wasn’t the only thinking this. You’re absolutely right. The main objective of the curse is to find Baelfire. That’s the real reason why the curse was created and put into place. So, if Rumpel’s main objective is to find his son, then why would then turn around and create a magical World War III? Rumpel wants to be reunited with his son so that he can have his “happy ending,” and a big finale battle between good and evil doesn’t sound practical to me.
I think Midnight Dreary and Lil’Red are definitely onto something. In the end, the fight won’t between Rumpel, Regina and The Charmings, it will be between all the different worlds and dimentions. I think that’s the real reason why the writers introduced the concept of different worlds in “Hat Trick.” It was setting us up for what’s come in the future.

Great theories everyone! I’d also like to add that the real reason why Rumpel brought magic into the world is because he knows that the lines between each reality are fading and that impending war is certain. So, in an effort to defend this reality, he brought magic into the world so that Storybrooke would have a line of defense against all the different worlds. Because when you really think about it, why would Rumpel want more power? We saw in “The Return” that he was ready to give up his powers and lust for magic. He gave August the dagger to show him just how sincere his intentions were. So, why would he all of a sudden do a complete 180 and decide to go after more power? It dosn’t make any sense. And I also don’t think that Rumpel needs magic to find his son. Unless Baelfire is trapped in some mystical tomb burried miles under the Earth, than magic is not needed for this task.
So, with those theories discredited, what’s left? I think Lil’Red and Midnight Dreary are correct in their assessment that the worlds are probably slowly dissolving and seeping into one another. And if that’s the case, then magic is going to be needed in order to defend Storybrooke. The complete dissolution of all worlds and dimensions is definitely Apocalyptic.
I also believe that the 20 doors inside of Jefferson’s hat will be the main players in the final battle. Those will be the worlds who’ll “take the battlefield”
I love all of these theories. It would give everyone’s storylines greater importance. This show needs to go out in a bang, and a simple little civil wa between Regina and Rumpel isn’t enough. I like the idea of the other worlds coming into play.
I also subscribe to the true love theory. Magic in this world has to have a catch. It has to have specific rules. It has to have limitations. Especially given the fact that this isn’t any ordinary type of magic. This is the magic of true love. It’s users must posses certain characteristics in order to use it. We’ve already seen evidence of this. Rumpel could only make the true love potion when Snow and Charming were in love. He needed their love in order to make the potion. So the users or “test subjects” need to be in love in order to create the magic of true love. That is the key ingrediant.
The same goes for true love’s kiss. The magic can only work unless the two lovers are truly in love. We’ve seen this numerous times with Snow and Charming, Belle and Rumpel, Emma and Henry, and the creation of the true love potion. You can’t just use the magic of true love, or create the magic of true love if its users are not truly in love. That will be the catch.
I’m not at all surprised by these results. There have been almost identical results on other sites. All of the Rumpel centric episode end up in the top 3. 😀

^Exactly. I really like this theory. I’d hate for the final battle to only be about Rumpel, Regina and the Charmings. It’s called the FINAL BATTLE. Why would the FINAL BATTLE include only Storybrooke and Fairytale land? This is supposed to be the ultimate battle that ends everything. That’s why it’s called the FINAL BATTLE.
More players need to be introduced. More worlds need to be involved. The idea that the final battle takes place all because of Regina’s hatred of Snow is simply ridiculous. This needs to end on a much bigger note. The show introduced the concept of mutliple other worlds and dimensions for a reason. These worlds shouldn’t just be explored in one or two filler episodes, they need to be brought into the main plot.
And as for Regina’s smile at the end of the finale, that could mean anything. Just because Regina thinks that she’ll be able to use the new magic doesn’t exactly mean that she will be able to use it. This is Rumpel we’re talking about, and if he doesn’t want you to have something, than you’re not going to have it.
I honestly don’t see the writers killing off Belle. The writers went out of their way to bring Belle back into the story. They did that for a reason. You also thought Belle would die in the season 1 finale, but of course that didn’t happen. In fact, the complete opposite happened. Belle was actually brought into the main plot and the finale left off with her and Rumpel. She was placed into an even more significant position.
Wow! That is GORGEOUS! You did an amazing job! I love that the Rumbelle fandom has so many talented people in it. 😀
I’ve been thinking. Since the magic Mr. Gold brought into our world was created from true love, most of the characters on the show will be able to use it. Emma (because of her love for Henry), Snow and Charming, and even Rumpel (because of his love for Belle and Baelfire). Regina however, may be the only one left out. Regina’s true love, Daniel, is dead and she killed the only other person who she really loved: Her father, Henry. Yes, she has little Henry, but since the writers chose to have Emma’s kiss revive Henry, I think that was confirmation that Regina’s kiss probably wouldn’t have worked.
Mr. Gold is going to have the added pressure of balancing his love for Belle with his love of magic. If my theory is true, then Mr. Gold will be blending two of his greatest obsessions together. Love and magic.
