“Reunite” or in other words, off himself.

One one hand, we see him often discussing how he wishes to be reunited with Belle, but it’s clear that when the Guardian takes the Darkness, Rumple is still “around”. So, he’s going to wander around for ten to twenty years? Biologically, he’s the age he was went Bae was a teen.

On the other hand, the show has in the past had this weird notion about heroes tossing themselves into the self-sacrificing fire because they “must”. So, I would hope Rumple doesn’t get free to jump at the first chance to get a one way ticket to Belle-halla.

What do you think? Maybe the show will completely alter the special effects (because they would) and make Rumple go poof right away? Otherwise, what do we expect his death to be?
