I know! That was my favorite part too! It was as if he had scene a ghost. But I guess in his case, he kind of was. He honestly believed that Belle had been dead for the past 30 years. Poor thing probably really did think he was staring at a ghost. 😥
Thanks for the welcome! 😀
You know, I was recently listening to this song called “Vision of you” from Lea Salonga (the singing voice of Jasmine and Mulan in the Disney movies) and it just made me think of this scene and the visions of Belle that Mr. Gold maybe had. You can look for the lyrics or/and the song itself. It’s very touching.
Another thing I’ve noticed is that Rumple/Gold calls Belle by her name. Rumple only calls her ‘dearie’ at the beginning of Skin Deep, while in her father’s castle and then later in the final scene in the dungeon. I think for him everyone is a ‘dearie’ but Belle was not an ‘everyone’. He saw her as someone worth of calling by her name. Only when he wants to pull away from her he goes to call her dearie again.
I don’t know, I just love those little details. 😀
