There must be a reason why Blue Fairy wasn’t keeping tabs on Rumple especially if he was going around killing fairy godmothers.

I don’t think Regina even knew how to kick-start the curse on her own, let alone alter it. She depended entirely on Rumple to create the curse “for her” and to learn how to cast it. In 1×2, Rumple rather impatiently told her to “stop wasting everybody’s time” and just cut out the heart of the thing (person) she loved most. If Regina couldn’t figure that one out for herself, how on earth could she be counted on to change the actual DNA of the curse? She’s smart, but not as cunning as the Master of Magic himself.
Plus, if Regina had known about this fail-safe all along, why didn’t she simply activate it before Emma ever broke the curse? Adam and Eddy have confirmed that since Regina was never cursed herself, she could’ve crossed the town line at any point. So, she could have activated the fail-safe, taken Henry and crossed the town boarder before Emma even had the chance to break the curse. Instead, Regina was all panicked and coming to Mr. Gold about why her apple tree was dying and why the curse was weakening. She had no clue about the intricacies of the curse. She actually believed Mr. Gold when he told her killing Emma would break the curse, prompting Regina instead to retrieve her poison apple, which we all know ultimately led Emma to break the curse by kissing Henry. Regina doesn’t strike me as being very in the know about how the curse would actually work. So, again, Mr. Gold was one step ahead of Regina, and she was left in the dark, and she completely fell for his scheming. She was shocked that Mr. Gold even wanted the curse broken.
Mr. Gold is the author of the dark curse and ultimate puppet master of people and events. He’s the one who put a drop of True Love potion on the parchment which the curse was written on to create a “safety valve” that Emma was the savior. I believe he’s the one who added a “self-destruct” button into the very fabric of the curse. Despite not knowing about Rumple’s motives for casting the curse, there might be some little tidbit in the wording of the curse that has since tipped her off in the present day, but I doubt she added that part about a “fail-safe” herself.
Like Rumple’s Girl said, Regina did have the power to alter the curse, she had done it once before. While I don’t doubt that Rumple could have built the fail-safe I can’t see a reason for it. He needed to be in the real world and have Emma break the curse. As far as he knew there was no other way to find Bae. Like I said the only reason that he would want the curse gone is if Bae died or went to another realm (at least that’s as far as my imagination is taking me) since he thought that Belle was dead. But why put a clause in like that when he might not have had the means at the time to escape? Did he just want to die if Bae was dead too? But what if he went to another realm? I just don’t see why that would be the fail-safe for Rumple.
But Regina on the other hand, this makes perfect sense. She wants Henry to love her. That’s why she couldnt’ just kill Emma and Storybrooke before the curse broke. She wasn’t desperate enough to do that until now.
So, horrible thought: What if Belle is somehow part of the trigger? I’m not sure how that would work exactly, but Regina kept her as insurance against the most dangerous person she brought along (besides herself–Regina really is a danger to herself). She also went into the curse believing that Rumple wanted it cast and wouldn’t want it broken again, because from her perspective, what sense did that make?

The [personality of Belle or the body that now thinks it’s Lacey? Because if it’s the personality of Belle then Regina just royally screwed herself by being petty and childish. I think if Belle (her “self” not her vessel) were important to the Curse, Regina wouldn’t have done what she did, just because the woman always likes to have a plan B.

Nothing thus far. I’m betting tomorrow, if we get any?

You’re right, we should be. But considering the advertising the amount of advertising the show is pulling for this episode (the last time they changed their twitter logo was for “The Miller’s Daughter”), they might be trying to keep things under wraps.
