This has been bugging me for years and I hope it's been answered somewhere but, shortly after Cinderella makes a deal with the Blue Fairy to trap Rumplestiltskin in his cell (the one where she gives Cinderella that quill to make Rumple sign with it even though it was the ink) Eric suddenly goes missing.

Thing is, Rumple never explained what happened and I don't think any other character did other than him ending up in Storybrooke with everyone else. Thing is, you know there was AT LEAST a 9 month gap between Rumples trapping and the Dark Curse being cast given Snow gave birth as the dark curse was being cast.

So, in short. What happened to Eric in Season 1 Episode 4 (The Price Of Gold)?
