Can somebody explain to me why Rumple didn't ask for Bae in his wish in the finale?

I think he wanted it all and he figured magic would give that to him. Having the most powerful type of magic, 或者 just having access to some form of magic & power, he probably could get anything he wants. He already has Belle & love, he would only have to work on getting Baelfire with his powers.

Because he probably wouldn't have much of a story-line in the 秒 season ;)

But, seriously, someone on Tumblr (I can't remember who, at the mo') made a good point; Rumple was in just as much danger as Regina. (Rumple himself actually makes this 评论 in an episode.) With his magic back, he's 更多 powerful than his enemies. And, with his magic, he can still look for Bae.

Don't get me wrong; it wasn't the right thing to do. And I don't think he's only reason was self-preservation. He's still the same power-hungry "twisted little imp" that he was, and it's going to take a lot 更多 than just getting Belle back for him to change. But him asking for magic makes sense, 给 the context of the situation and 给 what we know about his character.

IMO, it is because he is power-mad. Plus, he probably figured that, especially with the curse broken, he could find his son on his own.

I thought he was going to wish his son back too ! But magic is 更多 important to him, I think and with magic, he will find Bae 更多 easily, maybe ^^

He didn't specifically wish for ANYTHING. He told Belle the well is 说 to restore things that were lost. Bae's not a thing to be lost, like memories 或者 magic.

Maybe it wouldn't work, because he did not lose Bae, but he let him go.
