Wow! Thank you so much for posting those! I’ll be heaven for the next few days now. 😀
I also agree that Belle and Rumpel’s romance was very genuine and heartfelt. I didn’t truly realize just how much Rumpel loved Belle until the scene with Moe French and the scene where Regina return the chipped cup to Mr. Gold. Before this episode, I didn’t really expect anything substantial to come from OUAT’s version of Beauty and the Beast. It just looked like another episode of how Rumpel dooped another poor girl. 😆 But after the episode finished, I was grateful for the episode. The writers turned a potential disatser into a masterpiece. It was so beautifully done. I still think Skin Deep stands as the season’s greatest episode.
