    I love the Knave, and he’d had a way to integrate into the cast because of his past with Robin. If he does come onto Once for Season 4 it would be something to look forward too. Also, I hope he throws in some lines referencing Wonderland–he could also talk to Regina about Cora and how he got his heart back.

    I’m finishing up work but wanted to post this  real quick–all the articles keep pointing out that rumple gave up hia dagger to save bae, but here’s the kicker—Neal has no memory of it bc it was the cursed year so he doesn’t he have that to remember! It s been bothering me that everyone writing articles seems to miss that fact

    The only good thing that came out of this episode was that it was confirmed by Belle that EmmaxNeal are true love.

    True love. What should have been but now never will…

    Do you think MRJ is leaving on bad terms with Adam and Eddy? Normally, when people have left in the past they try to bring them back–example Graham back in flashbacks. But didn’t they say they wouldn’t include MRJ on the show again? I’m just trying to make sense of such a senseless episode and why they would give a character that is one of their own original creations such a crappy send off. Even Graham’s death was written better than this.

    Don’t think so. They were tweeting with each other earlier. I think MRJ asked to leave.

    That’s good to know at least. I have no explanation for why this was handled so badly then…..

    I really wish they would of written his character off in a way that included time with Henry and not vilifying him. Oh, well I will keep watching the show but I don’t think I will trust the writers to write a good story after this.

    I’ve had some time to rethink the episode and I still think it’s terrible writing. I’m really disappointed in the way the writers have handled this episode. If MRJ really wanted to leave the show, there were other ways to write it.

    I was very sad, when Rumple died, but his death had so much meaning, and was beautifully written. His arc had come to a close. He saved his family and he had a happy ending because he knew his son would live and be able to find happiness.  If Neal had died in a different way I would of still been very sad about this, but I could accept it easier.

    Things that could of made this episode better–

    1. Having more Neal/Henry scenes prior to this episode—have we even gotten any because besides Manhattan?- I can’t remember–even in Neverland when Neal rescues Henry, he is asleep and doesn’t remember–I feel like Henry hasn’t even gotten a chance to know his father which is terrible

    2. Building up CaptainFire before this episode. While I do like CaptainFire it felt a little sudden in this episode–they could of shown Hook being more worried about Neal and they also could of let them have a reconciliation scene in the year back in the EF. ALso, they could of downplayed the love triangle nonsense we got in Neverland–having Hook and Neal put their differences inside to find Henry

    3. Having Neal die twice—seriously???? Henry just mourned his father in 2×22 and now he has to mourn him again? If the writers were planning to kill him off they could of had him die in 2×22–given more Rumple/Neal’s scenes in season 2, more Henry scenes in season 2 and having Neal die saving Emma’s life instead of falling though a portal

    4. Death could of been saved for the finale-3×22.  Neal reunites with Henry in 3×15 and on, they bond, etc. In the end 3x22Neal saves the town , etc–dying a hero or protecting Henry–example witch attempts to hurt Henryto get to Regina–Neal somehow stops her and gets hurt instead.

    5. Having Neal enact a dark ritual? I thought he hated magic—surely he would consider all paths and consequences before doing a ritual–he is Rumple’s son. He is not stupid–he knows all magic comes with a price and wouldn’t just blindly do a ritual he knows nothing about

    6.Emma separates Neal and Rumple. I know Emma is powerful and all, but really? How would she even know how to do that. She couldn’t even make a fire without help from Regina–felts very plot devicey

    There are so many ?? that will also never be answered now. What was Neal’s job in NY? How did Pinnochio know who he was? I feel like this episode left us with many unanswered questions. I also thought a big theme behind the show was Rumple’s journey to find his son and be a better man and be with his family.

    I’m sorry, but this was the worse written episode i have seen. The fact the at Bae acted OOC, and the way they had him die was ridiculous. I guess Adam and Eddy couldn’t even be bothered to write this episode. ALso the fact that Henry didn’t even get to see his father is ridiculous. The whole show is supposed to be about FAMILY.

    SO basically, Bae who was a good kid who saw the good ineveryone, is separated from his father, dies alone in the woods without seeing his son and Henry doesn’t even get to see him ever again, I dont even get what the whole #hope and #secondchances theme is supposed tobe.

    We didn’t even really get to see any Neal/Henry bonding this whole series. I feel there were also loose ends to be tied up with RUmple.

    Sorry just had to rant, I could of handled Neal dying but not this way and not without seeing Henry. Also, really–he would just do a dark ritual without thinking about it first??????Sorry, end of rant.
