ABC's Once Upon a Time

My guess: Stranger is [BLACKOUT]Rumple's son. There's a production still of the next episode floating around in which it appears Rumple is giving his dagger to his son. It could explain Stranger's 'shin splints' if he's carrying that dagger around his ankle.[/BLACKOUT]

I like that theory more than

the Pinnochio theory everyone is talking about

The only thing I think going against that is the fact that I think we're supposed to believe that Rumple is really, really old so [blackout]his son[/blackout] is likely long dead in the fairy tale world. Take for example, in Rumple's initial backstory ep, they were either fighting the first or second Ogre War. In Red's ep, Granny said in her speech in the town hall that the second Ogre War happened over 60 years prior. So unless something happened to him to give him immortality like Rumple or put in some kind of stasis until the curse happened, he likely died of old age.
