Rumpy: Let's just say I'm invested in your future.
[Note: Seems legit. -- Rachel.]
David goes to Dr. Archie Hopper's office and asks for his help in recovering memories from his blackouts. He thinks he might remember something that will help Mary Margaret. As Archie shuts his office door, we cut back to the...
Enchanted Forest, Rumpy's Estate. Charming charges in and demands Rumpy show himself. Rumpy appears behind him and tweaks him about dressing like a prince, even though he ran away from the life Rumpy gave him. David says that was a prison sentence.
