I’m assuming that Cora’s end (whether permanent – dead – or end on the series by being shoved off into another dimension, whether by another mirror or a Wraith or something) will be the season finale.

The Seer was very nonspecific in all her prophecies, leaving out those pesky details. Gold may think it’s Henry but that may not be what she saw!
Which reflects the troubles of separating the will bes from the could bes, I guess.
the boy who led you to your son will be your undoing.
So what are the variables?
The boy. Could be Henry. Could be Pinocchio. Both played their part in bringing Emma to Storybrooke, So did Nealfire, in a round about way.
Your undoing. Rumple has clearly interpreted this as his ending, his death. But as others have pointed out, it could mean the undoing of his curse – but are they both the same thing? Yes if his curse is ended by being stabbed by the dagger by, say…. Cora or Hook. But not if his curse is broken by true love’s kiss. Now, fly in that ointment? Belle’s amnesia.
Carry on OUaT writers. I’m looking forward to this 🙂

I didn’t know they had digitally edited the White Wizard’s voice in LOTR. That’s a really cool piece of movie trivia.
If you listen closely, it starts out quite clearly with Christopher Lee’s voice, then slowly Ian McKellen’s voice comes through more clearly until the big reveal of Gandalf the White, when it’s all McKellen.
I’m not sure if it was BF’s voice… I’s possible.
^^ this. Totally agree.
Rumple is understandably a bit overwhelmed, as are Emma and Henry. Unsurprisingly, the ever resilient Henry is dealing with this the best of all of them! (Aside from a bit of pre teen grump).
I loved this episode!!! Amazeballs.
Loved the comic relief flash back to Snowing, vocalising the “WTF” of the audience in the warped family tree of Storybrooke. Good ol’ Snow, hoping that this will make everyone more mellow (pffft! As if) and David, being a typical alpha male. “But *I’m* his grandfather!” “You can have two of them….”
LOVED the penny dropping moment of Emma/Rumple/Nealfire/Henry confrontation.
Didn’t love how quickly Milah turned against her husband. Mind you, we don’t know how long it took Rumple to hobble home. Let’s assume it took a while. She’s probably already heard the gossip, started to be treated with scorn by her village neighbours, had time to muse and dwell and get bitter…. a bit more dialogue to explain that might’ve been helpful.
But my hands down favourite moment was Emma’s rant in the bar – “You ran off on me because Pinocchio told you to?!!!!”
That was awesome! It was so simple but effective. Certainly explains why Nealfire was SO quick to believe – August knew who he was.
This is driving me nuts. Seeing all these references to answers I haven’t yet seen. Bloody work – cant wait to get home!
I don’t think it does require a leap of faith.
Fairy tales are all about destiny, right? And now with the Seer plot line, OUaT has introduced the idea of fighting (and failing to fight) your destiny. Maybe there is a bigger plan, a bigger power than just Rumple. Is Rumple himself, the puppet master of Regina, Snowing etc, himself being guided/manipulated without his awareness by another (cough – Blue Fairy!!)
So if there is a bigger plan, then maybe it isn’t just blind luck that Emma and Baelfire fall in love?

Yeah, I hope that while we know he took Emma’s money, that he also never spent it, had it the whole time, waiting for the right time to give it to Emma, if he hasn’t already.
No chance. Living in Phuket for however many years? (How old is Henry? I’ve forgotten) There’s strong circumstantial evidence that August lived large at Emma/Neal’s expense for that time.
