He's witty, fatalistic and shrewd, but in this episode he seems to be just some jerkwad and makes his father seem civil. Hopefully he's just like this because of nerves and not because "this is the man I am" garbage because he wasn't so near annoying. He's all like "You did that. Yep, all your fault. Now, get out of my way and I'm on my own, you tools!" Oh, they're gonna push hard to make Rumple unlikable. They can't have him be heroic, or even anti-heroic anymore. They'll probably have him team up with Pan too. UGH! Good. Not everyone can be redeemed in real life, nor should they (I can't wait to see what they try to do with Cruella, honestly) So it was about damn time the fans realized Rumple can't be redeemed. When he finally had the trust and respect of everyone, was free of the Darkness and had the girl of his dreams trying to give him another chance he basically just said "lol screw it" and threw that all away. For magic! Magic that he literally could've gotten through teaching himself. Hasn't he been teaching people for centuries? Surely he could've regained some semblance of magic.

I'm done with his crap and while I love Bobby, Rumple needs to die. It's not all that much with the bak ad forth to me as he seemed either OoC in this episode or secretly very nervous. The point I was trying to make was that in this episode he became 2D cartoony villain again. Remember that time they said Rumple wanted to take over the world? Remember how that made so sense at all? That's how I feel he was in this episode.

It's like some kids stepped on his lawn or something. Rumple isn't jerkish all the time so this will hopefully be resolved in upcoming episodes.
