As much as I love Peter Pan and want him more on my tv, I also believe that he has already been established as unredeemable character. Since this show is devoted to Emma and Henry, I doubt they will spend too much time on Rumple backstory let alone his father's/Peter Pan. Right from the start Rumple's father reputation preceeded him. When Rumple broke his leg to be with his newborn son, his wife Milah blaimed him to be coward just like his father. But on the other hand it explains why Rumple wanted to be with his son knowing his backstory now. The problem is Rumple's Father didn't do anything good even as Peter Pan. Such unredeemable, pure evil characters are shorlived and if Peter Pan redemption arc is laid, it will be out of charcater because it will warrant a question why now? and how? That said, I wanted Peter Pan to be in Neveraland always but seems everyone end up in storybrook. It seems they going for story that all kids will visit Neverland in their dreams without fearing Peter Pan once he is dead. So, looking at all settings, killing Peter Pan, the villain seems plausible plot.That said, it is irony that I don't like any of the central characters.Unnecessarily making Emma everything is just not believable for me. She is saviour, She lived like orphan, Poor emma,and now she also has magic !! Magic doesn't suit her and she doesn't seem to be a believer. I will not be surprised one day they end up showing her saving Rumplestilskin or evil queen with her magic *smh*. Henry is central character as he keeps getting abducted and give morals etc. but nothing against actor who played it but I really think the young boy who played Baelfire could play Henry better but thats just my opinion. Adult Baelfire is also annoying for me. My other concern is Rumple's redemption. WHo wants Rumplestiskin to be redeemed? I don't. He is fabulous and funny as Rumplestilskin. Just leave him alone.
