Maybe Belle is only attempted kidnapped rather than actual kidnapped. I say this only because of the speculation that Belle is mugged. Generally muggers don’t try and take their victims with them so if Belle was left behind after being grabbed, which may have lead to the speculation she was mugged, then it could imply that the kidnapping was disturbed and Smee ran off.
I’m interested in seeing the conversation between Rumple and Maurice considering that Rumple beat the crap out of him.
Maurice: You beat me up!
Rumple: Yeah…….sorry about that. Let’s work together for a currently unknown purpose.
Maurice. Okay.
