What's going to be interesting now is if the theory of "Rumple no longer has the powers of the Dark One" is true, will Rumple be the same kind of man?

I think he can learn magic; Cora did without any prior knowledge or talent (that we know of) and Rumple, I think, should still have his powers, not because he needs them, but because there's more that needs defending; make him like the Sorcerer from the Sorcerer's Apprentice.

But the theories of Rumple being in the underworld now have some merit and are a very good idea; but I don't want to make Belle wait that long to find him because it looks like it's all about the Wicked Witch and Oz in March, which I'm excited about
