Based on info from Paleyfest. Sorta spoilery.

So here’s what I’m thinking after Rumple’s no longer having dagger issues he takes Belle out of the hospital and brings her to his home to recover. As she slowly gets off the sedatives the Lacey persona begins to come out. It’s little things at first she gets more touchey feeley getting closure than she normally would. Then she starts making advances  and Rumple has no clue what to do and pushes her away. At the rejections Lacey gets frustrated and goes out saying something like, “If you don’t want maybe I’ll find someone who does.” And that’s when she finds Keith. So my thoughts are that Rumple followed her to make sure she’s safe. Then like Keith pushes too far and Rumple comes to help her.

Yeah thats my idea……..for now

There wouldn’t be any wicked stepmothers without ex-wives, and ABC’s Once Upon a Time will soon introduce viewers to the never-before-seen angelic queen who gave life to Snow White before evil Regina moved in on her turf.

“The Snow White story usually begins with the stepmother trying to get rid of her,” says executive producer Edward Kitsis, “so we thought it would be fun to explore what Snow’s mom was like. Her name is Eva, and she’s the person who taught Snow White how to be Snow White.”

Likely airing in late February and early March, the two-part episode, featuring the return of child dynamo Bailee Madison as Young Snow, will naturally take a dark turn. Says exec producer Adam Horowitz: “Snow’s mother has a surprising connection to someone we know.”

My guess is that Snow’s mom was friends with Cora at some point and she caused her death. 

Ok so I’ve seen this idea being thrown around every now and again. At first I didn’t like it but then Tallahassee had some moments that got me thinking it could be possible.

First lets look at his personality, he’s over confident, flirtatious, and every so often shows something of a childish side. All things that a classic Capt Hook never has but all traits that Peter Pan is known to have.

Second there is how he talks about the lost boys in Tallahassee. He speaks of them in an amicable manner, not one of their ever constant enemy, but like someone who knows them. So unless they do something similar to the SyFy series Neverland this would hardly make sense.

Third in the crocodile he talks about Neverland like he had already been there, as he doesn’t seem the type to go on the words or rumors of others. Also I started to think about how Milah got the bean in the first place he was shocked to see her so I believe that the two were after Mr. Smee in the first place for the bean that Hook sent her to bargain for it but when she found out Rumple wanted it decided to use it to help Hook.

So this is my theory when he was boy his name was Peter, as for what kind of family life he had I don’t know but I assume it wasn’t a happy one. Longing for adventure he set off eventually meeting Tinkerbell and a group of orphans who would become the lost boys. After sometime the group heard of Neverland and found a way to get there and back, making a home there vowing to never grow into the cruel adults who cast them aside. On a trip to the enchanted forest however Peter was separated from the rest of them. Now stuck in the enchanted forest Peter searched for a way to return. Over the years though he had no such luck and started to lose hope. Soon he reinvented himself going by the name Killian Jones, which really does sound like a fake name, and becoming a great Pirate. So with the bean Peter now Killian returns to Neverland only to find that Tink left in search of him and that the lost boys can’t recognize him, as he has become exactly what he always vowed to never be a cruel adult.

If my theory is true then Milah would essentially be a Wendy like character. Think about it Peter Pan lured Wendy away from her home with promises of adventure and to never grow up because of her motherly nature. If you think about Milah is the same she longs of adventure and partially to reclaim her youth but at the same time she is motherly to Bealfire and Rumple even comments on her taking a mother like position with the crew.

Really the more I think about this the more it makes sense.

I like the think this is true. Also that bird with the postcard he got was because of Rumple pouring the true love potion into the well, after all it “has the power to return that which one has lost”.

Kristin is the neice of Solomon. When she was a kid her parents died in a car accident and her uncle Sol was the only one who could take her in. Despite the lack of time they had to spend together she grew to admire her uncle, so much that she hopes to one day become a member G3. This causes many arguments between the two as Solomon believes Kristin doesn’t understand just what the job entails and worries for her safety.

Ok so this is gonna sound like REALLY crazy but I think Dr. Whale is actually Puss in Boots. Now this is my theory, FT Whale was a con man (which would go with his confident personality and his bit about he never does what anyone expects) when he went and con the wrong person who cursed him to a cat. So he goes to the fairy’s to plead for help and the Blue Fairy tells him something like the curse can be reversed by preforming truly good acts in place of the cons he’s done (which is why she seems to want to comfort him in the finale). So he has a hard time with this but one day he meets the guy from the story he takes pity on him and decides to help and the story goes on as normal but in the end he’s still a cat and still trying to break his curse. 

So yeah I’ve been trying think outside the box with the whole Dr. Whale mystery and honestly this one makes the most sense to me. My other theory’s being he’s Bluebeard (but I really couldn’t see him killing anyone), the guy from ‘Godfather Death’ which could work as the guy became something like a Dr. and it would explain his fear cause he knows death is coming for him (though I doubt they would do that story).

Rosalee likes to make tasteless jokes about Nick and Monroe’s “relationship” in front of them and company. Example when convicing Ian to meet Nick she said he was also Monroe’s boyfriend which caused Monroe great duress as she silently laughed.
