Hi guys!
I am actually not that worried about the braking of the cup (sacrilege for a Rumblle fan I know but). I think that although the cup was important to Rumple is was also a symbol of a time when he chose power over love in Skin Deep. If he had have chosen to believe Belle loved him in the first place the cup would not have as much importance as it does. I think it is really sweet and lovely that he kept it all those years but really the cup is just another reminder of Rumple bad choices. I think the smashing of the cup could start a new chapter for Rumple and Belle because Rumple is going to have to work extremely hard to earn Belle’s love and maybe this time round they may end up with a keepsake that is a symbol of unity and love rather than power.
I completely agree with you! As both Rumbelle said, “It’s just a cup.” The real treasure is their relationship, and they will build that again. I am looking forward to seeing them rediscover each other. And they will … This will force the collector in Rumple to focus on the real treasure. Hint : It’s not the cup! You can’t manipulate that …
