Hee, hee. I know. Most of the time, I think Robert’s accent is sexy as all get out. Other times I will listen to him answer a question and be like “What the heck did he just say??” 😕 But, I’m sure if you are around him long enough you get used to it. I will happily volunteer to spend time with him so I can translate for everyone. 😉
[adrotate group="5"]Alright, RC is supposed to be tweeting tonight. Now I know what I’m going to ask him. I must know what Rumple’s drink of choice is. If the OUaT gods are smiling upon me maybe my tweet won’t get buried in the other 100,000 tweets from 16 year-old fangirls.
After watching the Dreamy episode again, I don’t get a threatening feeling from Nova and Bossy’s meeting with Dreamy on his way to meet Nova. I think Bossy is just being . . . Bossy – and is just telling Dreamy the only thing he knows about being a dwarf. But I get the impression that the Blue Fairy is somehow able to see the future. She makes a comment about how he and Nova will bring happiness to many people if they don’t runaway together. I don’t think Dreamy was threatened into not going with Nova, I think he made the choice himself based upon what the Blue Fairy told him. She also said that Nova would lose her wings. I didn’t get the feeling she was threatening to take Nova’s wings away, it felt more like she was telling Dreamy that’s what happens if a fairy chooses to leave – she looses her wings and can’t get them back. Remember that Nova had told him that more than anything she wanted to be a Fairy Godmother, so I think he decided that he didn’t want Nova to loose her wings and miss her chance at becoming a Fairy Godmother.
I do think that under normal circumstances it’s probably true that dwarves aren’t supposed to be able to love and are probably just created to work. But Dreamy had the whole fairy dust thing happen so he is different. What I don’t understand was what they were trying to do with the interaction with the Blue Fairy and Nova in the very beginning of the episode. So far the Blue Fairy has always been portrayed as very kind so it was a bit odd to see her as sarcastic and, honestly, kind of mean and rude toward Nova. So I didn’t know if they were trying to set up right away that Nova was an airhead fairy – which kind of made sense since they tried to make her be kind of an airhead nun. That part just seemed odd.
Anyway, I just got the impression that the Blue Fairy was hinting that Dreamy and Nova are going to be part of something important that will make many people very happy – which made me wonder if they would somehow be part of breaking the curse.
weedith – I’m cracking up over your extremely accurate assumption that several people on the boards could have managed some very longing looks at Rumple in the castle. In fact, I think what the pub scene was missing was a few of us sitting across from Belle having a girlfriend intervention, buying her a few shots, shaking some sense into her, and escorting her back to Rumple’s rather large estate to help her hit him upside the head with Nonnie’s pot.
They did seem to drink an awful lot of tea in the castle. And it always seemed odd to me that Rumplestiltskin drank tea. He never struck me as a tea drinker. And it was odd that he served her tea when he threw her back in her “room” after they kissed. Maybe something in the tea protected them from the curse? Maybe Belle didn’t drink enough during her time at the castle to fully remember who she is but enough to have enough memories to be dangerous to Regina and to need to be locked away from the rest of Storybrook. Maybe what Rumple was drinking from his flask wasn’t alcohol but was his special tea.
I so wish they would incorporate the Justin Bieber thing into the show somehow. I can’t remember if there is ever music playing in the background at Granny’s but maybe the next time they film a scene at Granny’s, have a Justin Bieber song playing in the background when David walks in. 😆
I kind of think of him as a computer software designer who sells his software but has created hidden passwords so that he can still get into the system even after he has sold it. He wasn’t the one who enacted the curse but because he created it, he had created ways he could still manipulate his way through it in order to remember. I have no idea how he did it. Maybe that’s what he needed the wand for. But I do think he did it because he knew he would need to help Emma break the curse. But all magic comes at a price. For Rumple it has been having to continue to live with the pain of the loss of Bae and Belle. At least for the rest of the characters in Storybrooke they don’t know they have been separated from their loved ones – they are kind of blissfully unaware. Rumple chose to continue to live with his pain.
The Dark One purposely provoked Rumple into stabbing him in order to free himself from the curse of being the Dark One. That’s why he made the comments about does Rumple really know if Bae is really his son (implying his wife was unfaithful, not that Rumple stole him from someone else). The Dark One knew that would make Rumple mad enough to stab him with the dagger which would then transfer the curse to Rumple. From what I could tell, Rumple seemed pretty horrified when the Dark One changed back into a man and he realized who he had just stabbed. Until that happened, he thought he had stabbed an evil and Dark presence, not necessarily a human being. Remember, Rumple doesn’t consider himself to be a man either since he became the Dark One. I simply had the feeling that Rumple was trying to protect Bae from the truth about his mother. Because if she truely left Rumple because he was coward, then that means she left Bae as well. So to protect Bae from knowing that he was abandoned by his mother he told him that she was dead.
The drinking at Granny’s cracks me up. For some reason I get the feeling it would be the equivalent to sitting down at the counter at Denny’s and asking for a whisky sour.
Someone has a whole theory somewhere (I don’t think it’s on this site) that Rumple’s son became miserable after Rumple became the Dark One and made a wish that he could disappear that the Blue Fairy overheard. She somehow found a way to make him disappear and he became one of the Lost Boys from Peter Pan who never grows up and is befriended and protected by Tinkerbelle (another Fairy). He is somehow spared from the curse but finds out about it. This person thinks that Rumple wrote the book and that the reason that Henry can’t figure out who Gold is is because he left parts of himself out of the book. Rumple’s son (who didn’t die because he never grew up) starts to age when Emma comes on the scene and figures out what is going on (he is August W. Boothe). He comes to town and adds the missing pages that contain Rumple’s story so that Henry can figure out who Rumple is). It explains why Rumple hates Fairies so much. Sounds like a decent theory to me and one I hadn’t thought of.
