cora is ashamed of her father for being so poor and she runs away where she encounters rumple. he does not tell her his name. he says he can help her become wealthy . he says there's a man with a good title. a prince. his name is henry. henry grew up rather spoiled and is eager to have ゴールド and lots of it but his father can only give him so much. cora then meets henry and after being told how much henry loves gold, cora lies and says that she can spin straw into gold. henry decides to give her a chance so he and his father lock her in a cell. realizing what a stupid mistake she's made, she breaks down in tears and then rumple returns to her and does the job for her. before he does this however, he wants something in return and that is cora's first born child. he summons an ironclad contract which cora reluncatly signs. after henry finds the cell cora was locked in filled with gold, he decides to marry her. cora is relucant but remembering how much money he has, she accepts even though it will be a loveless marriage. meanwhile as well all know, everything rumple does for someone, he expects something in return. for telling cora about henry, cora gives him a piece of her mother's jewelery. for spinning the straw into ゴールド for her, he wants her firstborn child. (regina). After having Regina, rumple returns for the baby. cora changes her mind and refuses to give up her child. she then speaks his name "rumplestiltskin" rumple angirly asks her how she knew his name. cora responds that "a little fairy told me" rumple has a hissy fit knowing it was the blue fairy who betrayed him again. he then calms down and says that she can keep her child if she would become his new student. cora asks what he means によって that. he asks how she would like it if she were to have magic which would mean power and control. cora says being クイーン helps doing that. rumple then says "oh but dearie, with magic, あなた can overpower your husband. turn this loveless marriage into a positive. 愛 is weakness but power endures" after some thinking over, cora agrees to become his student despite the fact that rumple has informed her that he killed her father after he refused to let his daughter go along with him. in the final scene, we see after obataining magic, not wanting to fall in 愛 thinking that will cause her power to disappear, she rips out her own ハート, 心 and keeps it in her old miller ホーム where we see her father's grave indicating that rumple killed him. we then see her using magic on young regina to get her to obey her. rumple is then seen watching her grinning. he then promises that he will get cora's child and she will become his student as well.

meanwhile i'll make my theory on storybrooke shorter. after obtaining the dagger, cora and regina go 検索 for rumple. (this is me assuming gold, emma and henry have returned) they start によって breaking into his ショップ and then his home. later on, wanting to deal with rumple alone, cora betrays regina によって subduing her saying she wants to do this alone and that she has a far もっと見る satisfying plan on how to control rumple other then using him to kill snow, david and emma. she encounters rumple in the forest and they have a magic battle which ends in cora subduing him and is about to stab him with the dagger. rumple then reminds her of all the good things he's done for her. she retaliates によって angrily saying how he killed her father. rumple 返信 that her father was no good. he wanted to keep あなた from having magic and control. he wanted to keep her weak. cora realizes that that must be why she wanted regina to be queen. to avoid being like her father even though in both cases, it ended with both cora and regina into a loveless marriage. she breaks down in tears realizing that in a way she has become like her father. her father wanted her to become something she didnt want and she did the same to regina. decides not to kill him and rumple says that he can help her and regina. they both then return to the still subdued regina and cora unsubdues her apologizing for doing that. she then tells her that plans have changed and that if all three 登録する forces, they have a much better chance at killing their enemies.

i'm not the best at making up stuff like this so if あなた hate it, i'll understand. this theory probably won't happen but i just thought i'd share even if everyone does hate it lol
