It is possible that Rumpel kept a girl to clean up after him. We know there was the mute maid and we know there was Belle. Regina mentioned other names, but she may have just been doing that to seem careless and not because those were actually other girls that had lived there. Who knows. They could go either way.
I am not sure if i believe that Regina was Rumpel’s apprentice. Regina may have done a deal with Rumpel to get her magic. Especially if we are going to learn how Cora got magic and if that magic is then passed to Regina which i think is likely. I have always liked the idea that Regina may have learned some of her magic from Maleficent. Though really it doesn’t seem like magic is learned in fairytale land so much as you just do it and it happens. Though then there does seem to be the part about making curses that is more complicated. I guess it is a little bit of both.
[adrotate group="5"]I think that Emma was in shock. She has just learned it was all true. That this was really the evil queen and just seen Pinocchio turn into wood, so it is like what is this place really. I don’t think it is really a library. At the least it is the entrance to the caves. And i think the sword question is pretty much like what am i supposed to do with that. Emma was in shock and just going on nerves at this point so it worked, in my opinion.
I liked Tangled too and i didn’t think i would either. I still think the songs are not as good as the old ones in it, but much better then the Princess and the Frog. There were two or three that i really liked. And the story was more of the classic story going on which was good. I did have some issue with the animation. I don’t really like how Rapunzel looked. There was something about her body proportions that just seemed off to me at times, but then again she was a person who was supposed to be supper strong because she could go swinging around by her hair all day long.
My little cousins are obsessed with that movie though so maybe it would be a good idea to do that story even though it seems too modern to me at times. Though my little cousins are too young to watch ONCE.
I didn’t really like the Princess and the Frog. I think that the bad guy was like a voodoo guy and the story took place in New Orleans which was just weird. And the songs weren’t good. I think there was one song that was alright, but the rest weren’t good. Though i think that has been a major problem with recent disney films. The songs just aren’t that great.
I wonder if they are ever going to explain who gave Snow the fairy dust or why Rumpel killed the fairy godmother or when Snow went from the scared person on the run to a person used to living in the woods or what happened to Charming’s mother or what has Red been doing since she killed Peter. There are so many gaps that i want them to fill in. I hope they don’t just fill in the time between Snow being kissed awake and them taking back the kingdom and instead fill in some of those back gaps that i want to know more about.
It really is hard to imagine. I wonder if they will ever do that. I think that they will eventually, but it will be so awkward. Awkward like Emma saying Rumpelstiltskin and the Evil Queen. It is great how they make Emma feel like a real person with the shock and awkwardness of the situation.

You just totally cracked me up because I have this exact same thought during EVERY SINGLE episode of the show!!! And I think it’s weird how we all have these deep philosophical theories on everything but then I’ll think – wait a minute, I don’t think they have even thought ahead that far yet!!! Or we come up with all this dramatic back story on a character but then I think – no, they haven’t even thought to tie any of this together yet!
I know, right? And it seems like the actors think that they have this grand plan thought out where they are going to go with the characters, but a lot of times it seems like they are just flying by the seat of their pants. I mean Kitsis and Horowitz are supposed to be the final stop so if something doesn’t fit in their grand mythology, if it exists, then it shouldn’t be in the show.
And a lot of times it doesn’t seem like they have thought out things like how magic works in their world, how power works, how the kingdoms relate to each other, and sometimes they don’t show us enough of a certain incident and then it doesn’t make sense completely. And i am not sure if they are going to fill in more at some point or if that is it. I just don’t know. Maybe in the end it won’t feel so inconsistent at points, but i am just not sure.
I agree, it was really odd when K and H suddenly announced that Gold didn’t remember anything until he heard Emma’s name. I mean, fine – if that’s what they wanted to do great, but they probably needed to actually put that information in the show because what about all those people out there who aren’t crazy obsessed like us and don’t watch all the interviews and read the internet forums?? They could be under the impression that Gold remembered all along – that’s what I thought until I saw the K and H interview.
There have been hints with the whole Rumpel really wanting to know Emma’s name when he was trapped in the dungeon cave in the Pilot and the reason he needed to know it was because it was what woke him up in the real world. The thing is that like you said, i don’t think it was stated explicitly enough that people would understand that. It is sort of like Regina all of the sudden just saying that she knows Emma is the savior. After all that time wondering when Regina was going to figure out who Emma was they just have her state that she knows. And there was that hint in Ep 2 that maybe she should know who she thinks she is, but after that it is never mentioned again that Regina knows anything about who Emma was and then they just state it like it was always known. Flying by the seat of their pants.
Sometimes i feel like they could write a whole season just doing behind the scenes actions of this season. It is like there must have been all of this stuff going on that we hadn’t seen to explain away all of the randomness.
I really think Bae just came to our world and has been in our world and that is it. I guess it could be more complicated then that, but i am going with the straightforward on this one.
