But once again, any exploits from season 4 are swept under the rug. Only Rumple's deeds matter. I think we all would like to forget season 4....I mean we practically could, lol. I'm sure they aren't bringing Rumple's season 4 deeds up, here. LOL... Season 4 is a masterpiece compared to season 5.

No, they won't bring Rumple's season 4 deeds because in 4 A no one has any idea what Rumple wanted to achieve besides saying the word "cleave" all the time and taking over the world was dropped at some point and in 4B he wanted exactly what Regina wanted but he was labeled "villain" and she was labeled "hero" for some reason.

Now he has a completely new thing we haven't known before. He basically became Gargamel and it's not interesting. Seeing a human in conflict aka Rumple has to deal with being a muggle could have been interesting, but the writers don't know how to write these anymore or don't have enough patient to explore that because Dark!Hook amd Underworld nonesense, and that's including relationship, that's why they killed Robin instead of developing his character. Season 4 was definitly not a masterpiece compaired to Season 5. They let Frozen overtake everything in 4A, and so had to use all of 4B just to get the show back on track. Camelot (Arthuian Legend) and the Underworld (Greek Mythology) are both things they have been established on the show since very early on. As for Rumple always going evil, it is pretty clear they intend for him to be the end game villain. Everything is "clear" in retrospective, isn't it? Well, the show isn't over yet, so you can't have a complete retrospective view yet. I'm just saying the fact that Rumple continues to do bad things every arc, and no one can fully defeat him, points to the fact that they probably want him as the end game villain.
