But the WishRumple reveal was the OMFG moment that made this The. Best. Episode. Ending. Ever! So glad we get to see the darker consequences of Serum Queen's wish. This would've been a terrible loose end if it wasn't revisited.

Adult Henry is remembering talking to his older self in this exact conversation when he was younger. And when Young Henry grows up to be Adult Henry, he will call his younger self at that exact time and say those exact same words he rememberd hearing. It's a closed time loop. Except for one thing: older and young Henry will meet in the finale. Wouldn't old Henry remember that he was once the young Henry in that exact scenario? I wonder how they are going to explain that one. A phone call can be explained away (and they did that well), but meeting him in person is a whole other scenario.

Also I'm confused regarding Wish Rumple. I know he got released by Regina in S6. But didn't we see him this season aswell? With Alice and Hook earlier in the season? Or was that OUR Rumple? But I thought OUR Rumple never fully became Rumple again. Just a few scales a few episodes back. Jared's and Andrew's Henry's will meet, but Young Henry isn't the only Henry Jared has played (hint hint).

As for Wish Rumple, we only saw him in the Knightfall FB. The other appearances this season were Gold/Weaver, who reverted back to scaly Rumple.
