Oh do you think he turned to young boy by getting rid of child? I thought shadow turned him into child and he made deal with him. lol I didn't even know that. Did you see how shadow showed Rumple his father when he was transforming into Peter Pan?

Shadow turning into Belle should've been better explained or used as plot device instead of ways to satisfy Rumbelle fans. Was Belle there the entire time in his subconscience or was it shadow who was playing Rumple the whole time? Confused!
