Rumpelstiltskin: "Eh heh heh, well, if you say so, my dear! Now let's get to spinning all this straw into gold." The miller's daughter reaches for Rumpelstiltskin's hands and takes them into hers, pulling slightly. His gaze is directed away from the spinning wheel, and into the miller's daughter's eyes. Her eyes are filled with a deep joy that he had not expected. Miller's daughter: "Who said anything about spinning the straw?

weirdly, the Olaf story has several similarities to a Norse Myth, where a disguised Giant comes to build a wall against the giants for the Gods, asking price being the Sun, Moon, and hottest of the Goddesses. Loki convinces them that if they give the builder a really short time limit, his pride will make him do the task but then he'll obviously fail so they would risk nothing... then he nearly does complete the task in the time provided, so instead Loki disguises himself as a hot female horse, distracting the builder's horse from doing his job so he fails to complete the task, reveals himself to be a giant, tries to attack the gods, but then Thor shows up and kills the giant... then several months later, Loki shows back up with a young 9 legged horse which he presents to Odin.

And it had a happier ending, where the three aunts came to the wedding and when the Queen (who had the "clumsy beauty" marry her son so she could get the beauty to spin shirts non-stop) asked the three aunts why they massive feet, nose, and hips (because that's polite), they told her is was from all the spinning they do. And the prince was like, "Omg I don't want my new wife getting massive feet and nose from spinning all the time!", and so the girl was spared from having to spin for the rest of her life.

I want to say that this is similar to what has happened to Goldie locks and the three bears were in the attempts to give it a "Happy ending" has caused it to go against what it originally was supposed to be but, apparently even the older adaptions have a similar ending to what we have now and I'm not entirely sure if the original tales were supposed to be about not promising something you can't follow thourgh or if that was just something Barney and HKFTT just slapped on to give it a moral. (tough HKFTT has the best adaption I've seen)

“Another story where a parent gets their child in trouble” I actually did think of this. This actually happens twice in Rumpelstiltskin the miller tells the king his daughter can spin straw into gold and the king orders her to do it or she’ll be executed then the miller’s daughter promises her baby to Rumpelstiltskin and the baby is almost taken by him. Also Rapunzel’s father stole from the witch’s garden so the witch took her and locked her in the tower and Sleeping Beauty was cursed because her parents didn’t invite the evil fairy to her christening and Belle had to live with the beast because her father took the rose from the beast.

I built upon that by applying the same rules to god, that apply to the troll.

I really hope Phelous eventually reviews HBO's Happily Ever After Fairytales. After watching them again recently for nostalgia, I gotta say Rumpelstiltskin is probably one of the best episodes. They don't sugarcoat the fact that the king is basically a secondary villain and he even gets a bit of a character arc. Plus Rumpelstiltskin is legitimately terrifying, as he goes out of his way to explain why he wants the woman's jewelry even though he can make as much gold as he wants by himself: he likes taking things from people that have sentimental value and seeing them cry. And then when he's defeated, he gets so pissed off that it practically stops the video.
