Oh, I’d love to see Merlin be a force for good, and I love all Arthurian legend. I think your theory is really good considering the title for next week is Lady of the Lake and we’ll meet Lancelot.

Favorite moments: Rumpel in the magic mirror urging Regina to push Cora through it.
Next favorite was of Mr. Gold conjuring Regina’s book with magic in SB.
Finally, seeing Prince Charming and Henry drink their coke in the same way sitting in Granny’s diner. So cute.Least favorite: Seeing Cora still alive in the present-day Enchanted Forest remanent.

Regina is the baby who got away in the original Rumpelstiltskin fairytale. Who knows though? Maybe Rumpel is the baby-daddy.

Rumpel is the villain we all love, Regina is the villain we love to hate, and Cora is the villain we all just hate.

I couldn’t help but think that Rumpel had paternal feeling for Regina, like he was her dad. I’m not saying he’s her biological dad, per se, but like her adopted father.

The curse may have caused the different lands to meld together though. That’s why we saw Mulan, for example, along with Prince Phillip and Aurora. They’re from different lands. Wonderland could have become destroyed, and the only remanent is a combo of all the different lands fused together. The reason Cora is a prisoner in this remanent is because she is the QoH and a threat.

The clip with the New York stranger could be from several episodes later in S2 (say 2×9). The writers of Lost used to the the same thing. They’d give a hint of the future, and then you’d see it unfold later on as the story progressed. Since Eddy and Adam wrote for that show, I think they’ll do the same for this one.

I’m going to say Dr. Whale is not Monstro, the whale from the Pinocchio story, which would be far too literal, IMO. I think the name “whale” has more to do with the size of his own ego than him being an actual whale.

AntBee wrote: I think it’s real this time because I’ve heard reports of Cora and Hook filming together on a ship.
I think you’re right, AntBee! Cora’s aboard the ship, too. 😮

Another “major recurring guest star role” coming our way just screams a major character. Could this be Baelfire? A lot of people have speculated that Bae’s character might have become corrupted over time, as a result of being abandoned by Rumpel. Baelfire may not be Henry’s dad, after all. I don’t think Barrett would be Henry’s dad, since we’re supposed to meet him in 2×6.
Could he be the writer of Henry’s book? We have no idea right now who wrote it or how it came into Snow’s possession. The author could be flawed, like have a drinking problem that he tries to justify.
Maybe Barrett’s another FTL character. Robin Hood might be a good guess, except that Robin only stole from from the corrupt Sheriff of Nottingham to feed the poor, which isn’t really a “dark side,” IMO. However, they could twist Robin’s character to make him have darker beliefs, like killing when necessary is justified.
Another possible candidate could be Aladdin, who was both a thief and a liar, in addition to being a really nice guy. Yet, again, I’m not sure that classifies him as having a dark side either. He was simply trying to survive and better his station when he pretended to be a prince.
One more idea I had it that Barrett might be grown-up Peter Pan. He was both fun and kind, yet he had a bit of a “dark side” in not wanting to grow up or let the Lost Boys do so. He constantly defended his care-free lifestyle as preferable to growing up. He seemed to think that keeping Wendy and her brothers in a perpetual childhood was no problem until Wendy convinced him otherwise.
With regards to Emma and her potential suitors, I’m thinking that she’ll be very closed off to romance, so that whoever tires to pursue her will have to be just as determined to reach her as she is to reject him. She’s a tough cookie, and now that she has Snow and Charming to look out for her, I doubt she’ll fall victim to the “love-is-blind” notion that Belle seems to have become entrapped in.
