I didn't say Rumple knew it was Henry, at least not until Manhattan. I believe the evil entity of NL knows it's Henry and wants him to defeat the Dark One.

Whether it is Henry or not is one of the main debates raging at the moment :) It could be that it is Henry simply because that's who Rumple has decided it is (as in Voldemort and Harry) and thus made the prophecy about Henry.

We need to remember the whole prophecy when talking about this -  '''You will be reunited with your son, and it will come in a most unexpected way. A boy, a young boy will lead you to him, but beware Rumplestiltskin for that boy is more than he appears, he will lead you to what you seek, but there will be a price, the boy will be your undoing.'''

It does not say it's Henry, that is true, however I feel it cannot be Bae - Bae as a boy leads Rumple to his older self?? Not sure how that would work.

Peter - how did Peter lead Rumple to Neal? I know that there is talk as to how 'united' they actually were and this is debatable but Peter did nothing to lead events to Manhattan. I suppose at a stretch it may turn out that Peter reunites them in the future but I'm not convinced!

Greg - again, how did he reunite Rumple with Neal?
