It seemed lime before Rumple, Belle was just a girl who chilled her her castle and didn’t do anything brave. (Im going off what Belle said in skin deep, her words about why she went with Rumple.) also after she left Rumple it seemed like she was a one point with the dwarfs and then captured by Regina. I always believed that Regina had the ability to pluck Belle out of Fairytale land and put her jail and it was only a few days after she left Rumple when she did so. My question is being now that Belle is having this adventure with Mulan does it change how long between being captured by Rumple to being captured by Regina and also the time in which skin deep took place,
I think it must, yes. I too had figured she’d gotten captured very quickly after leaving Rumple, but now it seems that she met up with Mulan first. Perhaps the creature that Mulan and Belle go after ends up being in league with Regina, and when Regina sees Belle she’s all, “Wait up, what’s going on here, she’s meant to have fallen in love with Rumple and weakened him. Can’t have her running around, she may come in handy some day.” And that’s when she gets locked up.
To add if Belle was captured during this journey with Mulan or shortly after does it show another reason why Mulan is more protective of Aurora, so much so that she was willing to double cross Emma and Snow?
That’s a great idea, would be a nice little parallel to explain why Mulan is so protective of Aurora.
And will Phillip be making a return in this episode, or is the reason for the journey about Phillip or leads up to meeting Phillip for the first time. And if this journey does have to do with Phillip was Aurora already under the curse? Did Phillip even meet Aurora at this point?
The thread with the pic of Jamie on the plane with Julian, (and also a pic Julian tweeted from in a forest), is in the forum for ep12 spoilers, but I don’t think we have any definite info about which ep he’ll be back for, though it should be some time around ep 11 or 12.
