It’s possible for Emma to be 28 and Henry to be 10 if they share the exact same birthday. That would mean Emma gave birth to Henry exactly on her 18th birthday. Emma said she was in jail when she gave birth and she was a minor because her juvinile records were sealed by a court order.

@DanielJLewis: Could you please post the recording of the interview when you have a chance?

I suppose Dr. Hopper is the next best thing to Dr. Phil here in SB.

It’s never been proven that there is no mention of Rumpel in the book. It’s just a theory, and one with a hole in it. Actually, we know for certain of at least one mention of Rumpelstiltskin in the storybook that was shown in the pilot episode. There is a picture in Henry’s book of a torch in the magical mines in which Rumpel is being held captive. You see the camera pan from the picture in the storybook to the same scene in FTL in which Snow White questions Rumpel about how to break the curse. That is the very first encounter we viewers have of Rumpelstiltksin. Rumpel makes the prediction that on her 28th birthday, Snow’s daughter, Emma, will return and the final battle will begin. Henry knows all about Emma, her role as the savior, and the prediction that she’ll bring back the happy endings. I think it’s safe to assume that Rumpel’s prediction is made clear in the book and that’s how Henry knows all about Emma’s vital role.
Just because Henry hasn’t paired Mr. Gold=Rumpelstiltksin doesn’t at all mean there is no mention of Rumpel. As given in my example, there is at least one mention of his character in the book. I think Henry is still trying to figure out lots of different characters from the book and their fairy-tale counterparts. For instance, even though Henry is a pretty smart kid, he didn’t manage to figure out who August really is until August showed him his wooden leg and Henry said, “You’re Pinocchio.” He only just figured it out in episode 21. I agree that it’ll be a big advantage for Henry once he realizes just who Mr. Gold is though.

Even though the curse is fading (as demonstrated by Regina’s decaying apples), I think that Emma did bring magic to SB. In the promo, there is a voice-over of either Mr. Gold or Rumpel saying, “Magic is coming.” I think that Emma believing will cause a new stronger form of magic to come to SB. One hint at this is the scene of Emma touching Henry’s storybook and it lights up and she has a eureka moment. Looks pretty magical to me.

Does anyone know if the album has been released on iTunes yet?

While I agree that it’s an interesting idea, I don’t think that Regina knew about Rumpelstiltksin’s history with his son. Back in episode 19, Mr. Gold was surprised that August knew about the knife or his son, because I believe Mr. Gold said no one besides Baelfire knew about it. I don’t think Regina knows about the knife, because Mr. Gold buried it to keep anyone else from finding out about it, especially Regina.

There is no convincing reason for me to believe that Rumpelstiltskin’s stories have been left out of the book. For all we know, all the stories we’ve seen in FTL are in the book. The only thing we know for sure right now is that for some reason, Henry hasn’t yet identified Mr. Gold’s FTL counterpart. Of course, I’m happy to stand corrected if I made the wrong prediction.
Neither do I think that Belle is the one who wrote the book since I think Regina’s been holding her captive since FTL before the curse was enacted. We know the book contains stories of the curse being unleashed. I think it’s much more likely that the Blue Fairy is somehow responsible for making the book of fairy-tales since she had last minute preparations to make. Even if the author is someone else we’ve yet to meet, I think the Blue Fairy was still somehow instrumental in getting the savior, Emma, to safety and making sure that the book wound up in Henry’s possession. I think the Blue Fairy, who is very powerful, has kept her knowledge of FTL and she would be in a position to put the fairy-tale book into the school in which Mary Margaret found it to give to Henry.

@rumplegoldfan: Are you saying that Jefferson is grown-up Baelfire, Rumpel’s son? While an interesting idea, if Jefferson were really Baelfire he would’ve likely tried to contact Rumpel as soon as he was able to leave his house when Emma arrived in SB. Also, I think Baelfire was sent to a land without magic. When we first met Jefferson, he was living in a hovel in FTL and later went to Wonderland. I think Balefire and Jefferson are two different characters.
