But it felt slightly rushed…Rumple saves Belle from a bear and bam, he’s the hero Emma needs? I love that he did and was BUT hold the phone–they note at the end that the town is full of heroes (like, I dunno, Belle, who is right there in the room?) and so it seems a little off.
It was very rushed, but it makes “sense” when one considers what Emma has said about Rumple in previous episodes. I wrote about this in the Rumple the hero thread.
