Baelfire Finally Revealed!

"Manhattan" was a great episode that answered many of our questions.  How did Rumple hurt his leg?  Self-inflicted injury because of a seer's prediction.  Why did Milah stop loving Rumple?  While they loved each other at one time, Milah couldn't stand that her husband didn't die honorably in the Ogre War.  Was Rumple always a coward?  No, he used to be brave.  Will Henry ever find out the truth about his father?  Yep, though he was disappointed in Emma for lying to him.  Who is Baelfire?  Of course, it was Neal Cassidy, former thief and Emma's baby-daddy.

Lots of answers.  Some surprises.  I was really surprised that Rumple had no idea that Henry was his grandson.  I thought Rumple always knew everyone's business.  I wondered if Rumple was surprised that his son was a forty-year-old man.  Was he expecting Bae to still be a child?  Hey kid, we are only ten years apart now!  I really liked the reunion between Henry and Bae.  It was cute, though it was heartbreaking for Rumple that Bae wanted to spend time with Henry instead of with him.

Will Emma and Neal reconcile?  I really hope they do.  They obviously loved each other years ago.  There is a complication though - according to TVLine, Neal is engaged.  There is a character named Tamara who will be recurring this season and possibly next season.  Tamara will probably be accompanying Neal when he comes to Storybrooke.  Would Neal come to Storybrooke just to be with Henry or will he reconcile with his father as well?  Rumple really needs something good to happen to him because his life really sucks right now.  Not only was there a prophecy that probably Henry will get between him and Bae, but Bae doesn't really want anything to do with dear old dad.  And of course, there is the little matter of his girlfriend Belle being in the hospital with amnesia.  And if that isn't bad enough, the Villain Squad is looking for his dagger to take control of the Dark One.  Rumple could use some love about now.
