Enchanted Forest. Rumpy (now the Dark One) meets up with the seer again. After summarizing all he's been through and lost, Rumpy acknowledges that while her prophecy came true, "...it would have been nice to know about all the pesky details." I love how this episode gives such an organic explanation for Rumpy's devotion to detail, don't you? Although the Seer can tell him he will see Bae again, and that it will take years and require a curse (which will be cast and broken by others) powerful enough to rip everyone from the land, she does not provide the specifics Rumpy wants, so she eagerly offers him her powers. Rumpy says, "Glady." The magic washes over him and we flash forward to...
Manhattan. Neal's Flat. Emma goes back inside and tells Neal that Henry wants to meet him. Neal: "You weren't going to tell me about him." Emma is unapologetic, and I don't blame her. "No, I wasn't." Neal says since he's his kid too, she can't make those kind of decisions without him, anymore. Emma: "Great. Go talk to him, then." As Neal exhales and heads toward the window, Emma stops him. "Wait...but don't break his heart." Neal: "Trust me, I'm not going to do to him (Henry) what he (Rumpy) did to me." Emma says, "And what you did to me." Good for you, Emma. Now knee him in the nuts, just because you can. Neal smiles and is all like, "Okay. I get it. We're all messed up. What do you say we try to avoid that with him? All right?" As he walks off, Emma quietly says, "All right."
