I read Fiona's and Malcolm's articles on here describing Rumple's birth. It mention how Blue and Tiger told Fiona and Malcolm that Rumple was to be a Savior. It also mention how Blue and Tiger told Fiona and Malcolm that Rumple will die as the Savior. I would like repeat my comment above. It wasn't at Rumple birth flashback where Fiona (and Malcolm for that matter) learn that Rumple will die as a Savior. It was during this flashback where they just learn he will be a Savior. When they learn about Rumple dying presumably took place between two flashbacks: Rumple birth flashback and Fiona became a fairy flashback and it was not shown. Malcolm probably just know that his son will be a Savior without knowing that his son will die in the process.I rewatch the episodes couple times and it wasn't during the Rumple's birth flashback.

Anyway, anyone think with the exception of the ending, Malcolm was a bit odd. He actually was there supporting Fiona as she gave birth to Rumple and did show he care for Rumple while Fiona was still "alive." In my opinion, if I was writing the story, I would have him more irresponsible. Probably abandon Fiona as she gave birth because he can't handle the pressure of being a Father. Then he overheard the Fairies foretold of the prophecy, then came back just because he was "interested" in the boy because of it. Then when Fiona "dies" he show his disdain of Rumple again.
