I understand that the casting call was for a young Henry but the physical traits/attributes are so completely different between the two. He’s more than a foot taller and extremely thin. Skeletons don’t match up. LOL! Just doesn’t make any sense.
I’ve seen other photos of the actor for Young Henry, and he actually does share a few physical traits to the Older Henry we have seen. Look at the face in particular. I think it’s just hard to imagine someone elderly looking as a young man.

Yeah, I feel like they’ve been teasing this idea since the beginning of season 2 with 2×2 “We Are Both” when Rumple told Regina in FTL that he knew her when she was “more portable.” I personally really really really hate this idea. The relationship between them was so flirtatious in the beginning, especially in We Are Both and more so during Rumple’s training of Regina in The Doctor. I also think it would be a complete 180 on Rumple’s character: for someone who has spent 250+ years looking for his child, he wouldn’t treat his other child the way he treated Regina. I know the argument could go that he didn’t know, but it’s Rumple. He knows an awful lot.
While I hate the idea too, I could see the complications of it being defended as being a part of the drama. This show is loaded with twists, turns, and complicated family ties. Rumple unknowingly mistreating his own daughter for the sake of finding his other child would be the ultimate irony. Still, I am right there with you in hating this possibility. It’s too weird and sick for my taste.
So, ABC has two GetGlue stickers for tonight’s episode. One is of Cora, and one is of Rumple. Both ask if they will die in tonight’s episode.

http://getglue.com/stickers/abc/once_upon_a_time_one_will_die_coraThis seems to imply that the death in this episode will be between the two of them. More possible evidence that it will be Cora who dies.
It’s interesting that they don’t flat out dismiss the theory of Rumple being Regina’s father. At the very least, it seems they want to tease the audience with the idea.

As to the Tink thing: usually she loves Peter but he doesn't choose her. Tiger Lily would be far more questionable, as would anybody with the last name of Darling. Still hoping for a Morraine relative if that's the case though.
We don’t know Tamara’s last name yet to we? I’d like it to be “Pond” or something cause I want her to be Tiger Lily instead of Tinkerbell. And according to some spoilers, we’re getting a Wendy in 2×21! I went back and watched The Return to day. I never even caught the maybe connection to a Moria. I would love that.
I don’t see any connection that suggests Tamara is Tiger Lily. Also, why would they intentionally cast an African American for the role if they could more appropriately cast someone of Native American descent? I honestly think they might actually ignore the Indians in Never Land altogether, as their depiction in the original story and the Disney adaptation have come under fire for being seen as politically incorrect these days. In fact, both “Hook” and “Return to Never Land” noticeably have them missing. Still thinking Tamara really is just an average person not connected to FTL or any other fictional based realm. Is it really hard to believe that Neal legitimately met someone new and got into a relationship during the past 11 years since leaving Emma? Her role doesn’t have to be that much more complicated than causing a love triangle.

I do agree with you there. Emma’s not a set in stone fairy tale. And neither is Bae. What makes them so unique is 1) there are no Emma or Bae fairy tales to begin with and 2) they grew up in a land without magic. Where “true love” isn’t so commonplace as it was in FTL. I think this gives the writers a lot of paths to follow. Hence Tamara, CaptainSwan, Gremma, and anything else they might throw at those two. SwanFire might be endgame, but as you said…it’s only S2.
This is one of the reasons why I DON’T want Bae to be Peter Pan. His character would no longer be unique if he turns out to really be one of the most iconic storybook characters of all time.

Well, I think most of us figured that out BUT I really hope the more casual viewer doesnt see that tweet or else they may not tune in!! We need a big jump in numbers for this episode, if only to make the die hard fans stop freaking every Monday morning when we look at bythenumbers.com.
Not to mention to stop all of the haters on that site for making fun of Once’s declining ratings. Seriously, Once deserves to get a nice looking rating again, especially with an episode like this!

Hey, Hook could easily turn out as Peter Pan and blow the whole Bae/Neal/Peter Pan theory right out of the water. Wouldn’t that be the redeeming quality that makes Emma openly warm up to him?
Don’t want to see it happen because I’ve been theorizing about it being Bae for over a year now. But, one never knows and has to be open to some things.
But Hook is already a grown up before he goes to Neverland. Peter Pan is supposed to be about a teenager. He’s the boy who NEVER grew up, which is a big reason why I am against Bae being Peter. If Bae is Peter, that would mean Peter grew up. You could argue that the movie “Hook” got away with making Peter grow up, but I still wouldn’t be a fan of the idea.
Thanks to Adam, the date of the Season 2 finale has been confirmed as May 12th. Whether both parts of the Season finale (21 and 22) will air together that same night has yet to be confirmed.
@annasuesieness May 12th is the scheduled season finale
