Lets not forget Gideon. I would have liked a shot of him by his mothers gravestone, having just added one for Rumple. Or carved Rumple onto Bells. Something like that.
Notice that after original Rumple (aka Mr Gold aka Weaver) tore his own heart out with the intention of saving Hook, the darkness in his heart disappears and fills with brilliant light? So, at the end of his incredible life, he finished with a pure heart. By far, the most heroic ending for any character in the series. Rumple rules!
@@soixsantes That's true! However, I wasn't too sure whether that prophecy still applied because shortly after that, the Black Fairy used the golden shears to cut Rumple away from the destiny that the fairies had described. Seems like he built his own destiny after that.
I bawled my eyes out when gave his heart to Hook and then I cried even more when Hook said "Goodbye old friend." By then I was sobbing when Regina said goodbye to him I thought back to when he was teaching her how to use her magic.
That thing he said before ripping his heart out "You dont do something right for reward, you do it because it's right." It just shows how much he changed, for the better. He is, after Regina, the one who deserves the happiest ending.
He knew he may never be with Belle again, but he knew Wish Hook deserved to be with his daughter. He lived too long and he's had a good family, but he knew it was time to be a hero and save a life without getting a reward.
@@tomgallowitz Wish rumple is gone too far. This rumple is worse than the original. He is the version unchecked by the love of belle. He has no belle, no baefire. No love. No reason to give up the darkness. He even was using his own grandson, for his own evil ends. He has only darkness, power, cowardice and weakness. Without the power, he's nothing. But a pathetic useless weak coward
@@Free.Spirit.Rebel. Wish Rumple was a coward who never admitted his cowardice and thought the darkness as his strength. Weaver was confronted numerous times on his weakness and grew as a person. He may still have that cowardice, but now his heart was filled with love to give strength. He saw the monster he would have become without Belle and knew it was the only way
I know people say that Regina had the most bad things happen to her and deserved her happy ending more than anyone but I feel more for rumple. He was always trying to do things for the people he loved and yet he lost everyone: his father, his mother, his wife, and his son. He darkened himself to save his son and even when he did bad things they almost completely benefited bae or his reunion with bae. Belle was the first positive thing to happen to him and he lost her too for awhile. It seems that she was the one who never gave up on him though (at least as of season 3). He often did many good and selfless things during the series and wasn’t credited for them. He eventually learned about doing the right thing just because it is right and not because it benefits you or someone you love. That in my eyes makes him more heroic and benevolent than most if not all the other characters. Rumple says that evil isn’t born it’s made... but maybe good can be made also. He came from some of the hardest circumstances and he was still able to turn things around, to love and be loved.
I know the actor who played Baelfire wasn't available for filming, but they could have worked something out...maybe Belle could have said that Bae was waiting to see him...or had the actor phone in and record a line that the audience could have heard off-screen or something. It just seems stupid to me that Rumple spent 300 years looking for Bae, it was the whole reason he did EVERYTHING to get the curse cast! And then to have no mention of Bae? Makes no sense.
That would've been amazing. Like the off screen voice of bae saying "papa" and rumple turning around and just smiling and saying his name would've been an awesome ending for him.
I know. I had been hoping to see Rumple and Bae reunited for so long. At the very least, Belle could have said something like, Balefire's here too, and he really wants to see you. Something, anything would have been better than just no mention of him whatsoever 😢😠
Robert was by far the best actor in this show. He had to play so many characters and adaptations more then any one. He had to play rumple the dark one, mr gold, the beast in beauty n the beast, the crocodile to hook in Peter Pan. I think his character was all round the most important in OUAT
yeah he's the reason for all this happening in the first place, teaching Regina and making her cast the curse which he needed in order to find his son. If he went with Beafire in the portal then the show wouldn't have happened.
Fittingly, it was actually *NEAL CASSIDY aka Baelfire* who said that. He said it to Emma, who then learned that lesson when her and Hook went back in time and she thought she had witnessed her mother die. How beautiful is it that? 🥲🥰
They have been threw so much Rumple a life time of abandonment and mental and emotional abuse And Belle years of feeling under valued and dreaming of proving herself and dreaming of true love
Lily Turner they’re not my favorite but they’re really underrated my personal fav is captain swan seeing emma loose him in a fake world then lose him to the darkness then kill him then leave him in the underworld. I feel like belle and rumples relationship is somewhat similar when you look at it from the loose win loose win POV
darkwolf2066 rumbelle lost more than anyone else. But in one of their interviews Emilie said that the low moments of their relationship are what make the High moments feel so great and she’s so right. After everything they’d been through watching them get happily married was one of the highlights of the ship and even the show for me. Not saying this is the kind of relationship I’d want in real life but it does make a remarkable story.
I love how Rumple got back to Belle not by forfeiting his dagger to some Guardian (which would burden someone else as he said himself), but by actually doing something good and selfless❤.
Rumple is truly a special one. His father an evil Peter Pan, His love Belle ( I'm at a loss for words....), His son murdered(Neal), His grandson ( Idk what to say), His first wife left him, Cora tried to kill him, All the other heroes saw him as The Dark One, Magic corrupted him. Even with all the darkness in Rumple's life he still managed to be a Hero at the end. People seem to forget that Rumple didn't start off as an evil Dark One, he had Neal and more or less Neal kept some of his father humanity inside, Belle kept so much of his humanity inside him (Example: he didn't kill Robin Hood because of Belle) and he might have been drawn to magic but that's only because he didn't feel complete without it that isn't villainy or cowardice it's called Fear something every decent human has. Rumple got his Happy Ending because his humanity inside lifted him so YEAH HE may have been a villain but HE DIDN'T DIE ONE AND HE WASN'T BORN ONE.
i agree. rumple was a good man despite all the shit that he's had to endure. he didn't become evil until he became the dark one, which is an actual curse.
The most perfect ending to his story. A lesson it took several lifetimes for him to learn; that you do the good and the right and the true even when no one is looking, and even when you can’t see what’s in it for yourself. Because it’s what’s right. It’s a lesson worth more than power, money or personal gain. And In that self sacrifice for nothing perceivable in return, all the darkness left in his heart was driven out, and in doing so he finally found his true love again. And the man he was actually always meant to be. Only time I ever cried watching this show. And I bawled my eyes out. Powerful, important, meaningful, and heart stirring. The most powerful magic of all truly is love.
everything you said is true and besides, just as daniel had said to regina a long time ago "the true love is the most powerful magic of all could overcome anything"
That's what i like about that actually. Most heroes have prophecies said that they'll do great deeds to become heroes. Mr. Gold had that taken a way. So he didn't have the advantage or even the guidance to do what was needed that most heroes had. Most times he went on his own feeling and at times right and wrong but always wound up being for the greater good. Then when most heroes finally get their happy ending , or what they perceive as their happy ending, they choke at the finish line ( Greek Heroes especially) . He does one more heroic effort ending in his death and his TRUE happy ending.
This was amazing. Never in a million years thought we’d get to this moment. No deals, no prices, no loopholes, no manipulation, no cowardice, no running, just a man finally willing to do the right thing for the right reason. This is his most powerful moment. And Regina’s goodbye. I couldn’t help but think of season 4 when he said goodbye to her in the car. That was his goodbye and this is hers. Friends, enemies, teacher, student, allies, family, etc. and in the end they were both proud of how far each other had come. Great character arch and great chemistry on and off screen.
Bella Scoles belle was his unfinished business. Rumple was Belle’s unfinished businesses. I think they would have met in the underworld before moving on
Regina's last words to Rumple really broke my heart she and him make the show. I'm so terribly sad that the show has ended. But I would so love a spin-off with the Queen's Of Darkness. Goodbye Rumple Goodbye Once Upon A Time. I'll miss you 😔😢😭💋❤️💖💕💘💗❤️💙💝💞💜
Rumple has always been one of my top fav characters along with Regina. He kept the show on its toes with his sneaky antics and dual lives as the Dark One and also as Belle's lover & protector...
Ok! Since he couldn’t be there to do it, here’s what I got going on in my head for Baelfire: Belle kissed her husband, the two at long last reunited. She always knew he would come back to her. But there was someone else who had been waiting longer for him. Just as they parted so Rumple could see her, an adult (or young depending on who you guys prefer) voice called from behind. “Papa.” Rumple froze. He would recognize that voice anywhere. It was a voice he hadn’t heard in years. He turned around and saw his son, Baelfire “Bae?” Rumple choked out. “Welcome home, Papa,” Bae/Neal said. Rumple’s eyes watered as he walked over to his son and embraced him. It took him hundreds of years, but he finally let go of his dark magic and found his boy once again. “We never gave up hope. We are so proud of you,” Belle said. “I have missed you both so much. At long last, I can rest in peace with the people I love,” he told them. All that was left was Gideon, which hopefully wouldn’t be soon. Wherever he was, they hoped he was safe and happy. A bright light ascended upon the three and Rumple held their hands tight as they were brought to a place they would never be separated again.
This would have made Rumple's ending perfect. It's a shame, but sometimes I think the showrunners forgot from season 4 onward about how important the relationship was between Rumple and Neal. Bae was Rumple's entire motivation. Without him, the series wouldn't have even been possible because Rumple never would have gotten involved with Regina's family, never would have given Regina the curse, never would have arrived in Storybrooke. Rumple's love for his son was what drove the entire series. Personally, I think bringing Rumple back in season 3 and killing off Neal was the worst decision the writers ever made. The show just wasn't the same after that.
They didn't show enough of Henry's reaction to Rumple's death which was a shame, but Regina's reaction was much more painful because it started with those two. Her words about how he deserved this happy ending literally broke me.😭😭😭😭😭
Everyone talks about how Hook called Rumple "old friend" or Regina gave a speech about hope to Rumple's body, as the moment where they can't help but cry...but for me, it's how masterful Lana's acting was when Regina comes into the room and Henry hugs her. Regina sees Rumple lying on the ground and clearly knows something's wrong, and the way she just looks so lost and confused as she asks what's going on and Hook tells her...the tears flow every time I watch that moment.
The Best Part of this is that Rumple who had his Destiny severed as a baby by his own mother still of his own choice ended up sacrificing his own life for the greater good and basically still became the savior he was destined to be
Its the savior after all, and the person Who deserves peace, he was take much pain and finally its free and happy with his love. Maybe he wasnt be the best person but he find the way, and he change after all, beacouse all the bad and good things that he did, was for love, only love, in the end he give his heart for save a father and a friend, for them... He deserves his happy end. For the man behind the beast
He was take more pain then anyone there. And still had the spark of light in his heart. And now this light brighter then the sun. He deserves his peace and his happy ever after.
When he died, so did my heart. No matter what he did, or who he did wrong, he's my favorite. Even tho he's happy with bell now I'm still sad :(. And when the speech of regina came I lost it. I just so hope for a season 8, still.
This was the most beautiful thing. It’s really the tail of beauty and the beast. It lets you know even at the most lowest evilest, darkest moment anything can change. People change , there’s a brighter side to any dark situation.
they had a lifetime together and those lowest evilest darkest moments, which took more of 3 years, are nothing compared to the lifetime of happiness and peace.
One of my favorite parts of his sacrifice and death is that, in spite of having his destiny stolen, he still ended up living it and dying heroically as he was intended. It adds a nice sense of hopefulness that nothing is truly stronger than good and that fate might be bigger than can be understood. For all the flaws of the last season, I knew I had to see it through for Rumpel's final fate.
Would have been funny to see their reactions if they knew he'd do that when he cut off his hand. Like damn, what a plot twist ! From worst ennemies to best friends. I truly like their relationship and how it evolved.
It makes me chuckle a little when Rumple says that. It reminds me of the end of the old movie Little Caesar, when Edward G. Robinson says, Mother of Mercy, is this the end of Rico?
I was crying when I watched this! Rumple has always been my favourite character and watching him die to save someone he has hated for so long touched my heart. Over the years he has truly became a hero! Even though he has done a lot such as going behind others backs, lying a LOT and making lots of wrong decisions. He definitely deserves to go back to Belle after the amazing sacrifice he made. I truly wish there was another way for him to be happy but knowing that he found his way back to Belle makes me SOOOOO happy! I have always been a HUGE Rumbelle fan and when Belle died I was devastated. I’m just so happy Rumple found his way back to her. I love this show A LOT and I am still watching it over and over again today. Whenever I see Rumple I just feel like smiling and crying at the same time. Because on one hand I’m so happy he’s back with Belle! But on the other, I just want him back :( If I’m being truly honest after watching this episode I never looked at Rumple the same. The first time he died to save everyone from Pan killed me inside, and I was so glad to have him back. But now I know he’s gone for good I will never look at him the same. Instead of seeing a man hiding behind a beast who only cares about power and will do anything for it, I see a true hero who puts others first and always does the right thing. Even when I’m watching him make wrong choices or go behind peoples backs. I still see that hero, and now I will always think that of him. He always thought power was more important than anything. This just proves to me that he cares about so much more! I’m so happy and emotional at the same time for Rumple and I still watch him and the hero’s every day.
I am just sitting here after finishing the show I watched years ago since 2012 and crying my eyes out over this scene and the whole fact that it's all over and rewatching and recrying over and over again... My childhood is official over :')
This scene is even more heartwarming when you remember rumple had become evil in the 1st place when baelfire had made him kill the kid with his dagger and rumple erased baes memory and became the bad guy himself
Oh god My heart is aching My eyes are full of tears I can’t even explain 😭😭😭😭 Rumple was the best character and he’s gone for his own happy ending I’ll never forget the top of his power in season 3 I loved him !
Me too.... but still I would have wished for Rumple to lose his immortality and be able to grow old and die together with Belle. So it still feels wrong to me...☹
Bell and Rumpol have one hell of a love story, same as Snow and David.. When you compare the writing on this saga with the modern day crap writing agenda of DEI of the acolyte, little mermaid, rebel moon, star wars, marvels etc. Im so happy I experienced Once Upon a Time in my lifetime. Genius from start to finnish. Pure magic!
😭Poor Rumplestinski, he gave his life as a hero, the emotional meeting between Belle and Rumple made me cry, that was the happiest ending I've ever seen, meeting his beloved in the afterlife, after death🌹
I really like Rumple's Journey, I was worried that he would end up as The Dark One by the season finale but this is ok for me seeing him pass away because he was finally able to rest and be with Belle. :> *I'm not generally ok seeing redemptive characters dies* Not that I don't want him to come back, but I think Rump should stay where he is so he can finally rest.
and although than rumple is made of acts extremely horrible and demonic in his life, he has done several good deeds he has destroyed peter pan and the black fairy he has prevented alice from sinking into the darkness and in this scene, he has gave his heart at hook for the save him from the death
That was sad yeah but it would have been even worse if he had been doomed to live a cursed immortal life never reunited with belle. He wanted to die since as early as episode 4. He got his wish and his happy ending.
i only now noticed they reunited at the wishing well, where "the waters that run below are said to have the power to return that which one has lost." i'm not crying 😭😭😭😭😭😭
hook saying "goodbye old friend" has to be one of the best lines in the whole show, with how they started out as enemies and in the end turned alies and friends
Rumple has been through so much. He really deserved his happy ending. I just wish we got to see Baelfire, and l know we couldn’t see the actor, so l wish they had at least given us the chance to hear Baelfire’s voice as Rumple entered the light, or Belle saying that Baelfire is waiting for him.
Rewatching this scene was oddly satisfying. I teared up! Regina and Hook’s words are priceless. He ended up with Belle in the end and I’m happy. Although, others make a good point that it would’ve been a fantastic bonus to have Neal there, the icing on the cake. I liked Neal! Especially, because in the next part where all realms are united you see almost every character, so it’s a nice reunion for the ending.
Yes, you're right, irony of fate...Rumple has finally turned into a savior. But let's not kid ourselves: the many centuries separated from his true destiny have left their mark. I'm convinced that if his path back to Belle had led, for example, via destroyed kingdoms or murdered heroes, then he would not have hesitated for a moment.

I agree, I think Michael Raymond-James was unavailable as he was filming overseas so they couldn’t bring him back for the finale :(
@@blakebenny1663 that's what I heard too.

yes, he is died as a hero
and he has deserved to find belle in the beyond
He did both die a hero and live long enough to be a villain.
@@cunningsmile4166 yes, but for be honest, he was too often the villain in the serie
@@cunningsmile4166 and every time he was happy with belle, he ruined everything himself
“Friend”
Never thought Hook, any Hook, would call the Crocodile that.
Rumple told Hook that after all the years they've known each other, he considers the pirate a friend.
rygy1994 I thought he would say you bloody crocodile
it was one of the really nice things about this season even though they were under a curse they became friends and still were even after everything
@@JP-pp2tn actually they first became friends back in the New Enchanted Forest
Hook saw the ture side of the crocodile in the end

So, at the end of his incredible life, he finished with a pure heart. By far, the most heroic ending for any character in the series. Rumple rules!
just to say, remember that on the day of his birth, the fairies blue and tiger lily had said that he was destined to become a great hero
@@soixsantes That's true! However, I wasn't too sure whether that prophecy still applied because shortly after that, the Black Fairy used the golden shears to cut Rumple away from the destiny that the fairies had described. Seems like he built his own destiny after that.
yes exactly, and rather than of becoming a great hero, he is became the lord of darkness
but however, he became the dark one to protect his son bealfire
He did it to save them all
Reginas last words to rumple is so deep, him and Regina were the start of everything and she knew she wouldn't be where she was without him
💯 the truth
This is so true ❤️
Rumple and Regina being the start of everything is probably why them getting their happy endings was what resolved the final conflict in the series
Nah fr I’m bawling rn gosh
Rumple taught Regina everything. Rumple was there with her through everything
"thank you for one last lesson..." THIS BROKE ME
my coven is legion. Me to
I wonder how many times Lana Parilla had to do this scene because she burst into tears?
Even the darkest heart can be redeemed
I wonder too! This is a gem, Lana excels herself in this last scene with Rumple and doesn't seem to be acting at all, it's so well done!
I bawled my eyes out when gave his heart to Hook and then I cried even more when Hook said "Goodbye old friend." By then I was sobbing when Regina said goodbye to him I thought back to when he was teaching her how to use her magic.

I love this scene and ending for Rumple. He truly became a hero and found his happy ending. He lost the dagger.
absolutely, and That's the proof than is became what he was destined to become at his birth "the savior"
Rumple is truly a special one. His father an evil Peter Pan, His love Belle ( I'm at a loss for words....), His son murdered(Neal), His grandson ( Idk what to say), His first wife left him, Cora tried to kill him, All the other heroes saw him as The Dark One, Magic corrupted him.
Even with all the darkness in Rumple's life he still managed to be a Hero at the end. People seem to forget that Rumple didn't start off as an evil
Dark One, he had Neal and more or less Neal kept some of his father humanity inside, Belle kept so much of his humanity inside him (Example: he didn't kill Robin Hood because of Belle) and he might have been drawn to magic but that's only because he didn't feel complete without it
that isn't villainy or cowardice it's called Fear something every decent human has. Rumple got his Happy Ending because his humanity inside lifted him so YEAH HE may have been a villain but HE DIDN'T DIE ONE AND HE WASN'T BORN ONE.
I agree with everything you said, everything is true
i agree. rumple was a good man despite all the shit that he's had to endure. he didn't become evil until he became the dark one, which is an actual curse.
yes hes my absolute favorite charicter
I sometimes wonder if he was so drawn to magic because his was forcefully taken from him
Don't forget about what his mother the Black Fairy did. She tried to alter his fate and sent him on his dark path.

That's what i like about that actually. Most heroes have prophecies said that they'll do great deeds to become heroes. Mr. Gold had that taken a way. So he didn't have the advantage or even the guidance to do what was needed that most heroes had. Most times he went on his own feeling and at times right and wrong but always wound up being for the greater good. Then when most heroes finally get their happy ending , or what they perceive as their happy ending, they choke at the finish line ( Greek Heroes especially) . He does one more heroic effort ending in his death and his TRUE happy ending.
This was amazing. Never in a million years thought we’d get to this moment. No deals, no prices, no loopholes, no manipulation, no cowardice, no running, just a man finally willing to do the right thing for the right reason. This is his most powerful moment. And Regina’s goodbye. I couldn’t help but think of season 4 when he said goodbye to her in the car. That was his goodbye and this is hers. Friends, enemies, teacher, student, allies, family, etc. and in the end they were both proud of how far each other had come. Great character arch and great chemistry on and off screen.
A hero doesn't do what's right for a reward. They do it because it's the right thing to do.
yes, the heroes do not make the good for get a reward, they do good so that the world is better
and rumple did not removed his heart for join belle, he did it for save hook and for than him and alice is finally reunited
He promised them he would find a way and he did
In my opinion Henry's reaction was way too small...that was his grandpa!!
Agree.
I love that Hook cried.
@@clarissareichling430 wish hook but I love their relationship
Maybe Henry's reaction was so little, because for me it feels like Rumple never was really a grandpa for Henry.
Regina seemed to care more about rumple dying in this scene than Henry did. That is kinda sad since rumple is his grandpa.
Baelfire REALLY should've been there too. :(
I agree, her first child should have been here too
@@soixsantes Definitely! X(
and you have loved baelfire you too ?
still not over this scene, never will be.
Cutekitty93 1993 doesn’t this contradict the whole hades underworld storyline
Vader Ren no because the underworld is for people with unfinished business. Rumple doesn’t have any, therefore he was able to reunite with Belle 💜
Bella Scoles belle was his unfinished business. Rumple was Belle’s unfinished businesses. I think they would have met in the underworld before moving on
Vader Ren maybe belle went to the underworld before Rumple came because her unfinished business was to be with him
Vader Ren maybe belle went to the underworld before Rumple came because her unfinished business was to be with him
Mr. Gold... I don't feel so good.
I don't want to go, I don't want to go 😂
Too soon 😂
Spider man lol 😂😂😂in Avengers Infinity war😍😍
There are some of us who still mourn Rumple's death.
How dare you ☹😂😂
@@broadwaygirl84 Yes I mourn the Dark One too.
Regina talking to Gold was more emotional than him finding belle. It makes me cry everytime I watch that part 😭😭😭😭
it's like a daughter talking to her father one last time.
No it wasn’t
Regina's last words to Rumple really broke my heart she and him make the show. I'm so terribly sad that the show has ended. But I would so love a spin-off with the Queen's Of Darkness. Goodbye Rumple Goodbye Once Upon A Time. I'll miss you 😔😢😭💋❤️💖💕💘💗❤️💙💝💞💜
I kinda ship them because they have gone through so much together but I know belle is who he's meant to be...
I bet no one ever thought when Regina cast that curse that years later they’d be dying for each other and loving one another
What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world remains and is immortal. Albert Pike
That's so true!!
Rumple has always been one of my top fav characters along with Regina. He kept the show on its toes with his sneaky antics and dual lives as the Dark One and also as Belle's lover & protector...
Ok! Since he couldn’t be there to do it, here’s what I got going on in my head for Baelfire:
Belle kissed her husband, the two at long last reunited. She always knew he would come back to her. But there was someone else who had been waiting longer for him.
Just as they parted so Rumple could see her, an adult (or young depending on who you guys prefer) voice called from behind.
“Papa.”
Rumple froze. He would recognize that voice anywhere. It was a voice he hadn’t heard in years. He turned around and saw his son, Baelfire
“Bae?” Rumple choked out.
“Welcome home, Papa,” Bae/Neal said.
Rumple’s eyes watered as he walked over to his son and embraced him. It took him hundreds of years, but he finally let go of his dark magic and found his boy once again.
“We never gave up hope. We are so proud of you,” Belle said.
“I have missed you both so much. At long last, I can rest in peace with the people I love,” he told them. All that was left was Gideon, which hopefully wouldn’t be soon. Wherever he was, they hoped he was safe and happy.
A bright light ascended upon the three and Rumple held their hands tight as they were brought to a place they would never be separated again.
amazing, magnificent, awesome, i love your story
You should being a author yourself, dearie..
Im writing a book myself
and you have loved baelfire you too ?
and for reminder, if rumple has wanted to become the dark one, it was to protect baelfire
This would have made Rumple's ending perfect.
It's a shame, but sometimes I think the showrunners forgot from season 4 onward about how important the relationship was between Rumple and Neal. Bae was Rumple's entire motivation. Without him, the series wouldn't have even been possible because Rumple never would have gotten involved with Regina's family, never would have given Regina the curse, never would have arrived in Storybrooke. Rumple's love for his son was what drove the entire series. Personally, I think bringing Rumple back in season 3 and killing off Neal was the worst decision the writers ever made. The show just wasn't the same after that.
They didn't show enough of Henry's reaction to Rumple's death which was a shame, but Regina's reaction was much more painful because it started with those two. Her words about how he deserved this happy ending literally broke me.😭😭😭😭😭
0:16 dammit Thanos half of the mcu just wasn't enough for you was it
😂😂😂 took me a min
They predicted it before the movie- dammit. There was no spoiler warning for iw or eg.
Lmaooo
Hahahaha
That son of a GUN! I’M GONNA KILL HIM!!
rumple truly did become the savior he was prophecized to be
This was the prophecy.
The Savior would give his life to save others.
Everyone talks about how Hook called Rumple "old friend" or Regina gave a speech about hope to Rumple's body, as the moment where they can't help but cry...but for me, it's how masterful Lana's acting was when Regina comes into the room and Henry hugs her. Regina sees Rumple lying on the ground and clearly knows something's wrong, and the way she just looks so lost and confused as she asks what's going on and Hook tells her...the tears flow every time I watch that moment.
i love your opinion on this scene, and me too i love scene because rumple dies a hero
I was and still am not ready for this moment!
He finally did a selfless act! Sacrificed himself to save the worlds!! 😭😭
he is became the savior
Belle was so beautiful
But the kiss was pointless
@@atlantasnape8757 I fell in love with this kiss 😍
@@clove001 even though it hurt
agreed
The Best Part of this is that Rumple who had his Destiny severed as a baby by his own mother still of his own choice ended up sacrificing his own life for the greater good and basically still became the savior he was destined to be
Its the savior after all, and the person Who deserves peace, he was take much pain and finally its free and happy with his love. Maybe he wasnt be the best person but he find the way, and he change after all, beacouse all the bad and good things that he did, was for love, only love, in the end he give his heart for save a father and a friend, for them... He deserves his happy end. For the man behind the beast
He was take more pain then anyone there. And still had the spark of light in his heart. And now this light brighter then the sun. He deserves his peace and his happy ever after.
When he died, so did my heart. No matter what he did, or who he did wrong, he's my favorite. Even tho he's happy with bell now I'm still sad :(. And when the speech of regina came I lost it. I just so hope for a season 8, still.
So belle and rumple are basically in heaven.. R.I.P
they can finally be together forever
@@soixsantes yep
This was the most beautiful thing. It’s really the tail of beauty and the beast. It lets you know even at the most lowest evilest, darkest moment anything can change. People change , there’s a brighter side to any dark situation.
they had a lifetime together and those lowest evilest darkest moments, which took more of 3 years, are nothing compared to the lifetime of happiness and peace.
Hook final smiles upon his old friend death because he can see what belle saw a man not a beast
One of my favorite parts of his sacrifice and death is that, in spite of having his destiny stolen, he still ended up living it and dying heroically as he was intended. It adds a nice sense of hopefulness that nothing is truly stronger than good and that fate might be bigger than can be understood. For all the flaws of the last season, I knew I had to see it through for Rumpel's final fate.
Exactly, he dies by becoming what he was destined to become at his birth "the savior"
Not going to lie I bawled my eyes out at this scene
Me too oh Belle was crying in his chest ❤️
Watching this years later, still crying at this scene.
Rumple took Hooks hand, but gave him his heart😭
Would have been funny to see their reactions if they knew he'd do that when he cut off his hand. Like damn, what a plot twist ! From worst ennemies to best friends. I truly like their relationship and how it evolved.
N-no more Rumple? I always get chills in this scene, especially in the first 30 seconds of this video. And I mean serious shivers. In a good way.
It makes me chuckle a little when Rumple says that. It reminds me of the end of the old movie Little Caesar, when Edward G. Robinson says, Mother of Mercy, is this the end of Rico?
I was crying when I watched this! Rumple has always been my favourite character and watching him die to save someone he has hated for so long touched my heart. Over the years he has truly became a hero! Even though he has done a lot such as going behind others backs, lying a LOT and making lots of wrong decisions.
He definitely deserves to go back to Belle after the amazing sacrifice he made. I truly wish there was another way for him to be happy but knowing that he found his way back to Belle makes me SOOOOO happy!
I have always been a HUGE Rumbelle fan and when Belle died I was devastated. I’m just so happy Rumple found his way back to her.
I love this show A LOT and I am still watching it over and over again today. Whenever I see Rumple I just feel like smiling and crying at the same time. Because on one hand I’m so happy he’s back with Belle! But on the other, I just want him back :(
If I’m being truly honest after watching this episode I never looked at Rumple the same. The first time he died to save everyone from Pan killed me inside, and I was so glad to have him back. But now I know he’s gone for good I will never look at him the same. Instead of seeing a man hiding behind a beast who only cares about power and will do anything for it, I see a true hero who puts others first and always does the right thing.
Even when I’m watching him make wrong choices or go behind peoples backs. I still see that hero, and now I will always think that of him.
He always thought power was more important than anything. This just proves to me that he cares about so much more!
I’m so happy and emotional at the same time for Rumple and I still watch him and the hero’s every day.
everything you said is true, you are right, and rumple has finally become what he was destined to become at his birth "the savior"
and he has deserved to find belle in the beyond
I am just sitting here after finishing the show I watched years ago since 2012 and crying my eyes out over this scene and the whole fact that it's all over and rewatching and recrying over and over again... My childhood is official over :')
I will miss this show forever :'(
This scene is even more heartwarming when you remember rumple had become evil in the 1st place when baelfire had made him kill the kid with his dagger and rumple erased baes memory and became the bad guy himself
It wasn't a kid, it was Baewolf who Baelfire made Rumple kill
Regina crying over Rumple’s death.. My heart!
“Darkness can always find light” 🥺
This made me smile so frickn hard, Rumpelstiltskin is my favourite character, so glad to see him finally get his happy ending
Oh god
My heart is aching
My eyes are full of tears
I can’t even explain 😭😭😭😭
Rumple was the best character and he’s gone for his own happy ending
I’ll never forget the top of his power in season 3
I loved him !
Even in the darkest of hearts there will always be a spark of love and in time it will grow and turn into something beautiful
I agree with you, and rumple has finally become what he was destined to become at his birth "the savior"
This whole series was about Rumple and Regina and their journey from the dark back into the light.
Exactly, and their children have been their joys and their redemption
i cried so much and each time i watch this i cry like a baby he was my favorite
This show taught me so much. It probably shaped a part of the person I am today.
i can’t stop crying, why am i actually crying? i’ve seen this before stop
Exactly! 😪😪😪💔💔💔
My two favorite characters Regina and Rumpel. This show was the best ever.
I am happy and glad that ramble got to be reunited with his wife again
Me too....
but still I would have wished for Rumple to lose his immortality and be able to grow old and die together with Belle. So it still feels wrong to me...☹
This scene still gets me! Hits me right in the feels even all these years later!
Bell and Rumpol have one hell of a love story, same as Snow and David.. When you compare the writing on this saga with the modern day crap writing agenda of DEI of the acolyte, little mermaid, rebel moon, star wars, marvels etc. Im so happy I experienced Once Upon a Time in my lifetime. Genius from start to finnish. Pure magic!
😭Poor Rumplestinski, he gave his life as a hero, the emotional meeting between Belle and Rumple made me cry, that was the happiest ending I've ever seen, meeting his beloved in the afterlife, after death🌹
Both Rumple and Regina had been through a lot and both found their redemption
Exactly, in fact their children have been their joys in their lives demonic
"No more rumple"
I really like Rumple's Journey, I was worried that he would end up as The Dark One by the season finale but this is ok for me seeing him pass away because he was finally able to rest and be with Belle. :> *I'm not generally ok seeing redemptive characters dies* Not that I don't want him to come back, but I think Rump should stay where he is so he can finally rest.
Rumple and regina are my favourite characters and the fact that he died made me die in side
3:15 Stunning. Absolutely stunning. The costume, the lighting, the overall feeling...
totally agree, this scene is as magical than magnificent
and rumple deserved to find belle in the beyond
and although than rumple is made of acts extremely horrible and demonic in his life, he has done several good deeds
he has destroyed peter pan and the black fairy
he has prevented alice from sinking into the darkness
and in this scene, he has gave his heart at hook for the save him from the death
One of the few good episodes of this season. I miss this show a lot, season 3 (especially the first half) was amazing.
In the end, he became the 'savior' he was destined to become originally.
When Hook said "Goodbye old friend" ,and Regina "Nobody deserves peace more than you." 😭😭😭
yes, he has deserved to find peace and of join his wife in the beyond
One if the most beautiful deaths in OUAT beside Ingrid's
@@auroraborealis1238 I agree for ingrid, she too has sacrificed his life for save storybrooke from the spell she had provoked
@@auroraborealis1238 and for me, ingrid was never a villain, she wanted just a family like her
He is my favorite character on the show and went out in a beautiful way.
So the crocodile gave up his ticker...which still sucks. :(
As it makes me sad
I hate that he gave his heart we need golf Alive 😪 and i hate that Enma swan wasn’t even really in this season 🤧
That was sad yeah but it would have been even worse if he had been doomed to live a cursed immortal life never reunited with belle. He wanted to die since as early as episode 4. He got his wish and his happy ending.
Yep. the tick tock croc gave up his clock.
I cry every time
I miss this show!!!
He redempted and became the true saviour ( like it was originally supposed to be ) 💜
exactly, rumple has accomplished his destiny
and he has deserved to find belle in the beyond
Why did i want killion to say “in a while crocodile.“ 😂😂🤣😭
He was born to be a hero, but after what his mother did, he's walking on a long dark road, but in the end, he became the hero, to whom he was born.
Watching it again after years- Rumple found his way to Belle, after all.
yes, and he had promised of the find her without the dark magic
i only now noticed they reunited at the wishing well, where "the waters that run below are said to have the power to return that which one has lost." i'm not crying 😭😭😭😭😭😭
hook saying "goodbye old friend" has to be one of the best lines in the whole show, with how they started out as enemies and in the end turned alies and friends
Rumple died doing what he was meant too....saving the show. Rumple was the greatest Disney character of all time
yeah, and he dies by becoming what he was destined to become at his birth "the savior"
But rumple was my favorite
NobodySpecial TV Mine to
@@lolu1781 he got his happy ending though
He was my crush
He was mine too but it’s not as if the show was going to continue without him
This is the death I cried most for in this show,its also my third time watching this and I still cry
me too, and rumple is dead in hero
Rumple has been through so much. He really deserved his happy ending. I just wish we got to see Baelfire, and l know we couldn’t see the actor, so l wish they had at least given us the chance to hear Baelfire’s voice as Rumple entered the light, or Belle saying that Baelfire is waiting for him.
absolutely agree, see baelfire welcoming his father would have been amazing and wonderful
and for reminder, it was precisely for baelfire that rumple has wanted to become the dark one.
and i loved baelfire, he was one of my favorite character.
@@soixsantes Me too
@@Mk2010-y and for know, is than you have loved the relationship of emma and baelfire/neal ?
Do anyone else realize that Belle and Rumble first reunited in 1x22 and now 7x22 ??
Rewatching this scene was oddly satisfying. I teared up! Regina and Hook’s words are priceless. He ended up with Belle in the end and I’m happy. Although, others make a good point that it would’ve been a fantastic bonus to have Neal there, the icing on the cake. I liked Neal! Especially, because in the next part where all realms are united you see almost every character, so it’s a nice reunion for the ending.
you are right, neal (baelfire) should have been belle and welcome his father
Idk why but every time the beauty and the beast theme appears it’s like the most romantic moment
But in the end, he became savior he was destined to be, Fiona was unable to cut his faith
Yes, you're right, irony of fate...Rumple has finally turned into a savior.
But let's not kid ourselves: the many centuries separated from his true destiny have left their mark. I'm convinced that if his path back to Belle had led, for example, via destroyed kingdoms or murdered heroes, then he would not have hesitated for a moment.
He was my favorite character, I’m glad he got Belle back
I didn't have the chance to cry at this scene, so I came to cry now. 😭😭😭😭
The fact it was so poetic that their relationship had changed so much that rumple was the one to save hook and the rest in the end.
So no one gonna talk about that sweet moment between regina and gold. Bruh I am not crying you are. I cant.
weelll im looking for those comments too
Coming back now, I miss this show so much😭
