This was such a beautiful scene. Only one thing was missing: Bae should have been there with Belle to greet his Papa.

Finaly Rumple became the savior he was destined to be, saving all the caracters of all kingdoms.

“Friend” Never thought Hook, any Hook, would call the Crocodile that.

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.

- Got rid of the darkness in him - Made amends with his oldest enemy - Gave everyone else a second chance - Got his own happy ending Rumplestiltskin is the coolest character ever.

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

"thank you for one last lesson..." THIS BROKE ME

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!

can we talk about the fact that Henry saw his grandpa die? 😥 and they could have made Belle say something like "come on, Bae is waiting for us"

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.

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

The only reason I watched the seventh season is because of Rumple.

When Belle says “I knew you’d make it home,” it’s tying back to when someone said “home is where your family is”

Belle and Rumple have honestly always been my favorite couple

If you think about it, in the end Rumple really was The Saviour.

the only time ive ever cried during the seven seasons is when the dark one died and said, "no more Rumple?"

''Goodbye old friend.....''

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❤.

Baelfire REALLY should've been there too. :(

I love this scene and ending for Rumple. He truly became a hero and found his happy ending. He lost the dagger.

In my opinion Henry's reaction was way too small...that was his grandpa!!

He was born a saviour, his mam took that away, he found his way back to being a saviour in the end

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.

still not over this scene, never will be.

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.

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.

Mr. Gold... I don't feel so good. I don't want to go, I don't want to go 😂

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

Regina talking to Gold was more emotional than him finding belle. It makes me cry everytime I watch that part 😭😭😭😭

"But you deserve your happy ending" He fought so long and lost so much the fact he was saved made me feel ecstatic

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 took Hooks hand, but gave him his heart😭

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.😭😭😭😭😭

rumple truly did become the savior he was prophecized to be

0:16 dammit Thanos half of the mcu just wasn't enough for you was it

He finally did a selfless act! Sacrificed himself to save the worlds!! 😭😭

“Darkness can always find light” 🥺

Hook final smiles upon his old friend death because he can see what belle saw a man not a beast

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.

What we do for ourselves dies with us. What we do for others and the world remains and is immortal. Albert Pike

I was and still am not ready for this moment!

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.

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...

Not going to lie I bawled my eyes out at this scene

Watching this years later, still crying at this scene.

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

Belle was so beautiful

I will miss this show forever :'(

Regina crying over Rumple’s death.. My heart!

So belle and rumple are basically in heaven.. R.I.P

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

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.

"No more rumple"

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

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.

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.

My two favorite characters Regina and Rumpel. This show was the best ever.

i can’t stop crying, why am i actually crying? i’ve seen this before stop

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 :')

So the crocodile gave up his ticker...which still sucks. :(

Rumple and regina are my favourite characters and the fact that he died made me die in side

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.

Why did i want killion to say “in a while crocodile.“ 😂😂🤣😭

I cry every time

i cried so much and each time i watch this i cry like a baby he was my favorite

I miss this show!!!

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 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.

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 !

When Hook said "Goodbye old friend" ,and Regina "Nobody deserves peace more than you." 😭😭😭

But in the end, he became savior he was destined to be, Fiona was unable to cut his faith

Earlier in the season Rumple declared to Hook that he was his Best Friend.

In the end, he became the 'savior' he was destined to become originally.

This made me smile so frickn hard, Rumpelstiltskin is my favourite character, so glad to see him finally get his happy ending

This scene still gets me! Hits me right in the feels even all these years later!

I am happy and glad that ramble got to be reunited with his wife again

Do anyone else realize that Belle and Rumble first reunited in 1x22 and now 7x22 ??

But rumple was my favorite

One of the few good episodes of this season. I miss this show a lot, season 3 (especially the first half) was amazing.

This is the death I cried most for in this show,its also my third time watching this and I still cry

He redempted and became the true saviour ( like it was originally supposed to be ) 💜

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.

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 😭😭😭😭😭😭

Rumple and belle were my favorite couple on the show.

This show taught me so much. It probably shaped a part of the person I am today.

He is my favorite character on the show and went out in a beautiful way.

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

He had the most beautiful ending 😭😭😭❤️❤️❤️

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.

Coming back now, I miss this show so much😭

I didn't have the chance to cry at this scene, so I came to cry now. 😭😭😭😭

This whole series was about Rumple and Regina and their journey from the dark back into the light.

Mr. Stark... I don't feel so good...

And now, the darkness will be finally be at rest

Aww! Heartbreaking! 😢😥😭

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.

“Rumple, we’re gonna be ok. You can rest 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.

😭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🌹
