Sheriff Graham’s death is not the focus of the episode, titled “Desperate Souls.” Instead, we are getting to find out the backstory of Rumpelstiltskin (Robert Carlyle).
So we had to ask – in Fairytale Land, were Rumpelstiltskin and the Evil Queen cohorts? Or enemies?
“That’s a good question,” says Lana Parrilla. “I think we’re both. There’s still more to be told, when it comes to that relationship. I think it’s still being developed. But there is a kinship between these two. It’s a love-hate. There’s a camaraderie and then they’re rivals.”
“I always question who’s more powerful,” she continues. “I think they kind of take turns. They one-up one another, I think it’s just fun for them. At least that’s how Robert and I play it. We have a blast.”
We noticed in the episode description that Rumpelstiltskin’s son is mentioned. So we mentioned to Lana that we don’t think Mr. Gold has a son in Storybrooke.
“No, he doesn’t. Or does he?” she laughs. “I don’t know. It’s a big secret to be revealed. We’re going to see a very different side to Rumpelstiltskin. How did Rumpel become Rumpel? … Then in Storybrooke, Regina and Mr. Gold are rivals, they’re up against one another yet again.”
“Once Upon a Time” airs Sunday nights at 8 p.m. ET/PT on ABC.
