Rumple: Well the Saviors have the luxury of always doing the right thing. I do not.

Fiona: It is a vile, dangerous world, son.
Rumple: Because of villains like you. And me.

Gideon: Thank you for fighting for me.
Rumple: I would do anything for you, son.

Killian: And that's how you wake up Blue? With dead baby dragon?
Emma: That's dark, even for the Dark One.
Rumple: Do you have a better idea, Miss Swan?

Black Fairy: Hello, Rumple.
Rumple: [stares back in shock]
Black Fairy: I believe the greeting you're looking for is, Hello, Mother.

Someday, may we all be reunited with our sons.

Fate's a tricky business. It still requires work. Planning.
