I’m now wondering if the title “Lacey” is connected to Robin Hood’s character (see casting call for 2×19). He’s a thief who steals magic from Rumplestiltskin, so perhaps the name has some tie-in there.

So Nealfire, huh. Well… what might be the real bombshell is that Neal and Bae are not the same person, cause that is what everyone is thinking. Perhaps Bae and Neal are both in New York and we’ve got a case of mistaken identitiy.
I guess we will have to sit and wait.

I for one would be really annoyed with the writers/producers if they pull another August on us! We’ve already waited almost a year since “The Return” and have now seen more backstory about Rumple, the curse, and his dilemma to find his son. I just want to see some progress in this storyline, not another red herring.

So maybe Greg Mendel will be helping Tiny/Anton with growing the beans.

Ah, nicely spotted connection there! 🙂

I noticed that Greg’s hospital robe in Tiny was green. Dunno if that necessarily means anything, don’t recall what colour he was wearing in his previous appearance, or what colour we’ve seen other patients wearing in the past, but he was definitely in green this time, contrasting to Belle in yellow.

Brilliant! I LOVE the theory that Greg Mendel (aka pea plant expert) could help the bean plant germinate! Green is the color of plants, botany, life, etc….

Even if the colours aren’t actually meant to mean anything, I’m totally gonna read into it and say that those are two colours strongly associated with Oz, (Emerald City and Yellow Brick Road), just because it fits in with my fave theory of who he is. 😛

😮 Emerald City! I think we could have a winner in Greg being the Wizard of Oz! 😀

Rumple/Mr. Gold is my favorite character on this show, probably because Robert makes him such a compelling character. I love seeing Mr. Gold coming to terms with his being just like everyone else.

Mr. Gold has said,

“You were right about me. I am a coward. I have been my entire life. I tried to make up for it by collecting power, the power became so important that I couldn’t let go”

Now that he is without magic in our world, I wonder what event, if anything, could help equip Mr. Gold with the courage he needs to give up his curse once and for all. Perhaps he will have to save Baelfire using not magic but some other tactic.

That’s a lot of enchanted wood!
No wonder there was only one enchanted tree left for the wardrobe 🙂
My question is, where/who did he get the enchanted wood from to build the ship?

Robert Carlyle has said Rumple is 300-years-old, making Hook about 275-years-old. The EF likely was replete with enchanted trees centuries ago, which is where the timber for the Jolly Roger probably came from. By the time Emma was born, however, the enchanted trees had been deforested to the brink of extinction so that the magic wardrobe Geppetto carved was from the last remaining tree.

And if he didn’t build it, who did?

We won’t know how Killian became the captain of the Jolly Roger until we see his background story though. I like the theory that Killian’s father could be Davey Jones, so maybe Killian inherited the ship from dear ol’ dad.

“My father is a little nervous. We’re headed to a family reunion, sorry,” Emma Swan about Rumple. MAJOR FORESHADOWING! (Neal = Baelfre = Henry’s dad)!

Pre-dark Rumple in a solider’s uniform uncovers a cage that contains the seer as a child:

Dark One Rumple returns years later to the same seer:

What is Hook saying about “his left hand and he’s powerless, he could be killed.”???
Does it mean they SAW Rumple in Manhattan and spotted his injury????

No, Hook said about Rumple, “If he’s left town, then he’s powerless. He can be killed.”

Oh, and looks like Rumple meets the seer woman once he’s already the Dark One, would she recognise him from when she was the little girl in the ogre wars?

I think they met while he was normal, pre-cursed Rumple. There is a brief clip of him in a solider’s uniform uncovering the seer in a cage. He then returns as the Dark One and attacks the seer (maybe steals her power of foresight).

I guess we should know more by the time The Queen is Dead airs and she appears for the first time.

Had another thought about that, and wondered if the character is in that previous ep, if she’ll be this age, or if she could possibly have been a childhood friend of Snow’s? The casting call was for an adult actor, but perhaps they just wanted to cast the adult version first, so they could then find a young version who resembles her to be in The Queen Is Dead. Perhaps?

I suppose anything is possible…the wiki has Green listed to appear…they try not to put up anything unless it is confirmed but they do make mistakes from time to time.

I just hope they are not pulling another Mulan/Aurora thing…the one true love thing to me means ONE true love. Not saying that Emma is Neal’s true love but they did go out of their way to show he was in love with her.

I mean look at Regina…how many years has it been since Daniel…Hook even with Milah…and there is no hope of them being reunited with their true loves and yet they still haven’t fully moved on and yet Philip supposedly finds someone else while he still has hope of finding his true love.

I still think on this show, each person has only one true love. With Philip though, I think he experienced different forms of love for two different women. His true love has always been Aurora, since otherwise his kiss wouldn’t have awakened her from the sleeping curse. Just because Mulan is in love with Philip, doesn’t mean he returns her love romantically. He may just love Mulan in a platonic, brothers-in-arms kind of way.

Sure, that could be the case. Another possibility is that Tamara could be a realm-jumper herself and so have come to our world, traveling through space and time to the modern day, just as Baelfire presumably did.
