I agree with you I want to see Belle’s character do more, be more. She is so far the only character who really hasn’t grown in the past 3 seasons. Like she hasn’t evolved she is the same.

Zelena tried to change time which would’ve erased people out of existence! Belle didn’t care about Zelena, she only asked Rumple not to kill her for his sake, not for Zelena’s.Zelena would have tried something, her jealousy issues constantly rear their head when she doesn’t get her own way. Rumple just killed off Zelena before she could cause trouble again.
And she was defeated. Powerless. I’m not saying her actions weren’t horrible. And I won’t miss her. But she was defeated and powerless.
And we don’t know what would have happened had Zelena actually been allowed to live and have a second chance.
All of it reminded me of when Rumple killed the must maid. It was the final straw for Bae, he looked for a way out. To get his Papa back, he called the BF to find where he might go and have his father be free of his curse.
I think killing Zelena is going to require more than a pot of tea and some talking. If Rumple ever hopes to be the best version of himself, then I think we’re looking at a separation again. So long as he thinks he can murder can still get to his his lady love, there is no hope for him
I agree.
I don’t think they’ll break up. Belle will probably be extremely mad and disappointed (A&E recently said that if you liked her calling out Regina in 3.18, you’ll like what will come in the next episodes). However, my biggest issue with Rumple in this scene was not him lying to Belle but the fact that he did not trust her enough to tell her the truth after all they’ve been through. It was obvious that he was distraught and knew that he will have to face her reaction. It seemed to me, that he’s afraid she’ll leave him (maybe that’s the reason for his speech about her staying with him after everything he’s done).
Anyway, it’s important for the recognition of Belle’s character that she shows some kind of negative reaction towards Rumple’s trick, though I really hope that we won’t have to face another separation.

I agree. Lets see RumBelle work through their problems as a couple rather than constantly separating them.

Keeper of FelixI agree. Lets see RumBelle work through their problems as a couple rather than constantly separating them.
Nobody actually WANTS them to be apart. They’re my OTP. I want them together. But apparently Neal’s death didn’t actually tech Rumple ONE BLESSED THING. So long as Rumple thinks that he can do as he wishes and there are no consequences, then he’ll never change. I want his curse broke. I want him human. I want him to learn to be a man again. Belle loves all the parts of him, even the parts that belong to the darkness but she expects him to rise above them

Neal’s death WAS the reason Rumple killed Zelena. There will be consequences to Rumple’s actions, but that doesn’t mean one of those consequences has to be a separation. I think Belle encourages Rumple to rise above the darkness and she hopes he does but “expects” is a tricky word because it implies that Rumple is failing to live up to Belle’s expectations when he does fall off the wagon and one half of a couple shouldn’t have to live up to the expectations of the other.

Keeper of FelixI’m very interested in seeing what they do with Belle once she finds out. I love how forgiving she is and how much she believes in Rumple, but it’s always seemed to me that she does a good job of glossing over just how many terrible things he’d done before he met Belle. I think this will really test her faith and maybe even make her a little more jaded but I hope they don’t just deal with it by separating them. Make them work through it together. Show you can be True Love and have to still work at the relationship. Especially when you kill to avenge your son’s death – the exact thing your son would not have wanted you to do in his memory. I think Belle won’t let him forget that, and it might be the start of how the DO curse gets broken…the realization that the killing doesn’t fill the hole Neal’s death caused, especially when it goes directly against that person’s wishes. It could be an interesting storyline…or they could botch it.

I agree. Yes, exactly. Preach it, RG!
Just saw this on tumblr and I agree with all of it.
None of us like it when rumbelle are separated. I think we can all agree on that, but Rumple’s action are the problem here. He didn’t have to trick Belle like that by giving her the dagger. That is going to come back and bite him in the butt, definitely. I would be more pissed next episode, or in 3×22 if Belle still doesn’t know what he did.
But Rumple needs to face consequences for killing Zelena and tricking Belle. Even if what he did came from a place of wanting justice for Neal, I know for certain Belle definitely would not, 100% not approve of him killing her and also lying. It would be very OOC for Belle to give him a pass for that.
Screwball posted her review of Kansas. She had some interesting things to say.
Flying monkeys aside, we have a continuity problem with the whole
“good != killing” in the form of how the Charmings treated Peter Pan in Storybrooke. Remember when Emma hauled Pan over the town line, rendering him magic-less, and was about to summarily SHOOT HIM IN THE HEAD? Remember how everyone was okay with that, including Belle? Was this justified? If so, why?
•If it’s because Pan was going to curse everyone— Zelena did too
•If it’s because Pan’s magic is too powerful to let run free— Zelena’s magic is too
•If it’s because Pan tried to kill Henry, imprisoned Rumple, and threatened the lives of innocents— Zelena did tooSo what gives? Why is whacking a powerless Pan without a trial okay but shivving a powerless Zelena is not? Anybody? Somebody?

Because Pan was never powerless. The final thing he did before Rumple got him was freezing everyone. He still had all his magic and could use it to hurt people. Zelena’s magic was literally ripped away by Regina when that pendant came off.
