Curious to see how [blackout]Henry[/blackout] factors into things.

TV Line: OUAT Bosses Tease Secret Finale Scene, Tackle 'End Date' Topic

 

[Milos]

Ugh!
Hope Rumpelstiltskin dies in fiery death!

 

[psylockolussus]

Snow White owning her evil side is so Lulzy! Please more Wicked Witch!

Its too bad though, this might be for the finale only, kinda like with the time travel from season 3's finale.

 

[SuperBatman]

This isn't a surprise but its officially announced now so

[Sawyer]

I'll be curious to see what season 5 looks like, since Eddy and Adam have said that S4 ends in a similar way to how S1 ended, rather than S2/S3's "Let's go to Neverland!"/"Here comes Elsa!" endings.

 

[Mariah]

It's weird to know that this season was supposed to be about Maleficent but it came out as Rumple's revenge on everyone.

 

[Primal Slayer]

I'm hoping this is a game changer, this show needs a good revamp.

No one ever said the season would be about Maleficent, just that she would play a part in it, and she has.

Rumple will probably die and there will only be the Dark One who will be the big bad of Season 5.

 

[Sawyer]

Rumple will probably die and there will only be the Dark One who will be the big bad of Season 5.

I had a similar thought, except [blackout]I think Emma will be the new Dark One[/blackout].

 

[Teelie]

I agree with Sawyer. It's being telegraphed pretty clearly this is the direction they intend to go with the story. That way it can take next season to do the whole redemption arc thing all over again with another character because we haven't had enough redemptions yet.

 

[Sawyer]

I don't think a redemption will even really be necessary, because I think [blackout]the only reason she'd do it is to set the story right, and they're only living out that story because Rumple's trying to live out his happy ending at virtually everyone else's expense (Snow and Charming are evil, Regina and Emma appear to be their victims, considering what the deal is with this new timeline, Henry probably wasn't even born, etc.) I think what comes after would be less about redemption and more about maintaining her sense of self after becoming an entirely new being.

And honestly, I think it's something they foreshadowed years ago. In his first flashback episode, after Zoso tricks Rumple into killing him, he says "I know how to recognize a desperate soul". What did Gold tell Emma at the end of that episode? "I know how to recognize a desperate soul". [/blackout]

 

[Primal Slayer]

I would be so happy if Rumple died, there are only so many ways to skin a cat. Or they need to take his power from him and let him be ok with it. But I don't think they have the apples to kill him off so yeah.

I agree with it all but I also see them as clinging to having to redeem another darkened character to become good again. They have that recurring theme down pretty pat with virtually every single evil character yet. Someone was or becomes evil and they have to be saved and barring that, killed off.

So, once they go through all the will/won't they go evil, does, and performs some evil act(s), it is time to save them from themselves and forever end the evilness. Until some new villian comes along.

 

[Sawyer]

15 minutes, East Coast.

 

[Specter313]

Oh look, a Milos cameo.

 

[Sithborg]

Oh god, it's live action Milos.

 

[O'Haire]

That was my first thought as well.

 

[Spider-Gnome]

"The ole Wookiee prisoner gag..."

 

[Specter313]

Was I the only one kinda hoping for a Huntsman cameo with that guard?

 

[Lobo]

Nope.

 

[Primal Slayer]

Just started the episode, not sure why the villains get their happy endings by having to switch roles with heroes instead of villains actually winning and Regina is just Snow White.
