So we now know the Peddler's name is Gorin, which is Swedish for farmer. Here's my crazy theory on who he is. Gorin is Ruth's husband and David and James's father. Think about it. He was a farmer, as we have learned that he and Ruth gave up James to save their farm. We finally found out more about Charming's father earlier this season when David talked to Anna (so we have foreshadowing). Charming says his father died, but it seems he only had this info from hearsay. What if his father faked his death, and became a peddler, who is still alive to this day, and was sent to SB with the last curse. I could be totally off on this, but we know how Once likes to give us new relatives ever 10 episodes, and Charming is one of the few mains who we haven't seen any of (besides three flashbacks with his mother, and two with his brother). Also, I think we will find out about Hook's parents, but not until next season.
