It would be a WIN wrapped in FAIL, because I may love my little underwater realm jumping theory, but am not convinced it has anything to do with the Ariel/Belle scene. I’d only get to do half a victory dance.
Why else would Ariel be in SB when we know that Adam and Eddy have confirmed Ariel would be in NL? Maybe Ariel was only in NL flashbacks and might just have been stranded in SB during the curse. But I like the idea that she can realm jump the best.
Did Rumple send Ariel to Belle? Does he maybe realize he’s fallen on the wagon and he knows that he needs her?
I wouldn’t be surprised, but at the same time, I’m cautious about getting my hopes up too much.
