Back to topic: I wonder what will Rapunzel do with the toadstool Gothel gives her. Poison Marcus' heart, Cecelia's, or totally something else? I think either Cecilia or Hook (for letting Gothel out).

I’m not sure what’s happening in this episode, but my theory is: Rapunzel is in a loving relationship with her husband, Marcus. They have two daughters. Then, she makes a deal with Gothel for whatever reason, but she walks into a trap and Gothel keeps her imprisoned in a tower. Marcus assumes she is dead and remarries with Cecilia, who has her daughter, Ella, from a previous marriage. Rapunzel is gone for ten years as Marcus and Cecilia live out their life with the three girls. Then, Rapunzel traps Gothel in the tower using the magical flower and escapes. She finds her husband has remarried.

Here, the story could take a detour. She could poison Cecilia and force her to run away so Rapunzel could re-enter her family, or Cecilia was previously poisoned and leaves. Rapunzel finds Ella, a reminder than her husband had moved on from her. Marcus’s true love is Cecilia now, and he has lost his love for Rapunzel, who has grown bitter and cruel because of the abuse she suffered at the hand of Gothel in the tower. He is closest to Ella for these reasons, whereas Rapunzel comes to loathe her because of this.

Then, tragedy strikes. Cinderella and Anastasia are throwing snowballs at each other when Anastasia falls and the ice cracks. Cinderella and Anastasia both fall under. Marcus, whose true love is Cecilia, reaches for the last remnant of her first. He saves Ella, then goes for Anastasia, who dies. Horrified that her husband did not save his own biological daughter, Rapunzel plots his death with the Prince of the kingdom.

After he dies, Ella is renamed Cinderella and Gothel escapes. Rapunzel uses the remainder of the mushroom on Hook, who has unwittingly freed her captor. Then, he can no longer be with Alice. But this is just what I think is going to happen. I LOVE this theory. I really think you might be on to something.
