If there’s one thing I want to see this episode, it’s Belle finding out about the dagger. It’s been almost an entire arc since they’ve set this up, and I am getting constantly annoyed that it keeps getting dropped (did anyone else expect Belle to overhear the conversation between Rumple and Hook?).
If things don’t come to a head with that, I’ll be pretty upset.
I assumed Belle wasn’t just sleeping in that scene. My assumption was that Rumple magically knocked her out for the duration of the curse to protect her. (Actually, to get her out of his way so he could pack and avoid her questions).
Belle’s most adamant statement ever was “no one decides my fate but me!” Rumple is taking that away from her.
