However. I will concede that Malcom and Neal were alive prior to season 4. But "Ding, dong, dearie", they're dead now. And my thinking was more along the lines of "Who is alive NOW". and currently we have 2 confirmed, and one potential. Yep, well almost certainly 3. We know Hook is alive in present day, and knew Rumple before he was the Dark One. We know the Black Fairy is alive in present day, and being his biological mother, had to know him before he was the Dark One. And we know based on who she was filming with, that Tiger Lily is alive in present day, and based on the fact that she filmed with the Black Fairy and a baby playing Rumple, she had to also know him before he was a Dark One. In fact, maybe Tiger Lily brought Rumple to his father for the Black Fairy.
