    So, on the one hand, I’m excited Robbie Kay is back — Pan was a great villain. On the other hand, I am somewhat less excited about where I think this whole thing is going. I have a very strong suspicion that, as the show is seemingly working very hard to redeem Zelena, they are going to once again use Rumple as the foil — the entrenched villainous-villain — the same way they did when they were trying to make Hook look better. And while I understand why the show runners might outsource this role to Robert Carlyle: he’s an amazing actor, and can probably pull off being interesting to the audience despite his character’s utter lack of development. But only up to a point. Anyway, I hope they pull off something more original than what they’ve done with Rumple (and Rumbelle) for the last 2 seasons, but it looks like they’re already backtracking to the tried and true version of that same damn story.

    I think you’re right. I can’t imagine Belle–as she is written right now on the show–waking up and upon hearing what Rumple did (strike a deal with Pan–who threatened to kill Belle and Bae in 3A–and captured Zelena–who only recently gave aid to Belle herself) be overjoyed. And if she is then it is going to strike me as pretty darn OOC given her recent demands she is making on Rumple with no gray area in between.

    I’m hoping that Belle acknowledges that, though she doesn’t agree with Rumple’s methods, if the end result is that their child is saved then she shouldn’t complain too much.

    I think this really comes down to what the writers are planning for S6. Are they anticipating no more shipping drama on *any* front or do they want to continually test the couples while testing the entire group with Arc!Villain?

    How Belle should feel: Wishes Rumple hadn’t gone about things the way he did but happy, glad and thankful that their child is now safe. How the show will actually make Belle feel: She’ll throw a hissy fit and break up with Rumple yet again which will make her look really ungrateful despite the fact he just saved their child. Seriously the writers need to give Belle a response that doesn’t amount to “HOW DARE YOU!”

    Aside from the great debating going on here on this topic, did anyone else come to the realization of the irony in that the Dark One of All Dark Ones said to the Wicked Witch of the West, “Now, let me introduce you to my father, Peter Pan.” … Ah the OUAT family tree LOL

    Rumple: I told my daddy on you! Zelena: And? Peter Pan: I’m dad. XD

    LOL … Maybe Rumple is related to the Malfoy’s (Harry Potter), I can just hear Draco saying: “Wait till my father hears about this!”
