I guess it would be the same thing as in “Heart of Darkness” with Snow and Charming; Belle can’t remember who she sis so TLK isn’t mutual.

Oh I hope so! What sort of spell would requre a kiss? And it’s not just Cora kissing Rumple…she leans in an *he* actually kisses her. 😕 Well, Robert did say in an interview that 2×12/2×13 woud be shocking…oh, boy. (Thinking about what that could mean is killing me right now.)
THAT is a perfect explanation for why a Rumbelle kiss wouldn’t work right now. Ok. Ok. Ok. Good. I can take that explanation. That helps calm me down. *only slightly because tonight the writers sort of destroyed one of my favorite things about this show* But then how does he get her back. He has to get her back. The writers KNOW how popular Rumbelle is. They wouldn’t really keep this going forever, right?

I know exactly how you feel. On the bright eide, it opens up the possibility of Gold trying to win Belle back by trying to be a better man and making her fall in love with him again. That will keep the Rumbelle/Rumpel/Belle storyline going for multiple seasons, as opposed to the writers giving them their Happily Ever After right away.
I just hope that they don’t do a love triangle scenario (a la David/Mary Margaret/Kathryn from last season) again, with Belle (or Rumple?!) being paired with somebody else.
Seriously, that RumplexCora kiss is still bothering me. 😕
I think that it was a spell, since Rumple didn’t know about the whole memory thing, it could be that Cora did that to keep Regina there if the curse broke, hence, Rumple has to go to her for help to get Belle’s memories back

Haven’t had the chance to watch The Outsider yet, but had to peek at these promos, coz I’m impatient like that.

I dunno, looks to me like after they shake, she takes it upon herself to get a bit too cosy, and there’s nothing he can do to get away, even if he wanted to. I’ll be surprised if it turns into a real kiss. More likely that half a second later he pulls away and spits out the CoraCooties.
PS. Emilie knows how to scream. Dayum.

I hope it’s a spell too. 😯

Hm, my impression is that Cora visits her daughter and tries to get her back.
Regina seems like she’s changed back into that young, scared girl again, obviously shocked but cannot fight against her own tyrant mother. However, I don’t think that at that point Cora gets her back just like that. I see three possible scenarios:– the only purpose to that visit might be just to make herself known to her daughter and leave her a message ‘You know where I am, if/when you need me’. She might not want to force Regina just yet, she’s a Queen of Hearts so she knows how to work them, especially if it’s her own daughter. She might want this decision to really be her daughter’s, not hers, because only then it would count, so she just wants her to start thinking about it and how good it would be.
– or Cora, thinking her daughter is fully broken, wants to get her there and then but Regina, though clearly struggling with the situation, manages to recoil. She doesn’t want that life any more and she wouldn’t leave Henry. Perhaps there could be some parallels to the scene back in FTL when young Regina was trying to run away and said she didn’t want power, she wanted to be free.
– or Regina really is devastated and she’s about to give in when Henry and Emma show up, saying how sorry they were etc
Either way, Cora’s visit doesn’t turn out exactly like she wanted, she sees Regina is still not fully ‘broken’ so she needs to ‘work’ her even more. And who’s better at manipulating people than Rumple himself? They agree that it’s Henry who’s Regina’s weakness. Again, there could be two different things coming out of it:
– either Cora asks for a spell who would erase Henry from Regina’s heart/memory
– or they agree that it’s Henry who needs to be targeted but he’s under Emma’s protection and, as we know, she’s untouchable by Cora. Conveniently, Rumple might eliminate her out of the equation by taking her with him to find Bae. But what would he want in return? Finishing off Hook? And would he let hurt Henry? He’s quite sweet around kids (and dogs). Perhaps he would give Cora a spell of forgetting, all right, but meant for Henry? Or an idea of how to affect kid’s imagination for him to start to hate Regina once and for all?
– or Cora can come up with many fine ideas herself, all she needs is for Rumple to ‘fix her’ like he fixed Regina’s magic before by giving her the book of spells. Obviously magic is different in Storybrooke so perhaps Cora struggles to reach her magical potential and needs some help? In the end, Rumple wouldn’t be himself if he just gave Regina the whole book without keeping a spell or two?
Either way, the conclusion of the meeting would be that Rumple passes on a spell to Cora, perhaps not so much through a kiss but by a breath. Remember the book of spells, Regina had to breath it in to gain her powers, maybe this one would be similar.
I like your theories, EvilQueen. I could see Gold convincing Emma that she needs to take Henry with her to protect him in order to fulfill his part of his deal with Cora to make Regina vulnerable by showing that Emma can decide when Regina gets to see Henry and for how long. Even if Cora hadn’t made it look like Regina killed Archie, we already saw signs last week that Regina was already very upset about having to go through Emma to get access to Henry. So even though Emma and Regina may come to a temporary truce once Emma tells Regina the whole story about what happened to Archie, if Emma says that she’s taking Henry with her to find Gold’s son, I could see that making Regina very angry and reaching a point where Cora can then manipulate her.
It seems like now that Gold has a way to leave town without losing his memories, and he has that potion that he can put on something of Bae’s to find him that he really doesn’t need Emma. I guess she could help him in some way with his search because of her bail bond person skills and help him get around in the real world, but before the spoilers leaked for “Manhattan”, he never needed her in his quest to find his son before. Every time that we saw him attempt to leave to find Bae before, he was either just going to go by himself like in last night’s episode or in last season, or he was going to take Belle with him before he knew about the side effects of crossing the town line.
Plus, he didn’t really seem to care if Emma died in “Queen of Hearts”, so evidently she wasn’t too necessary for him to find Bae. So I agree that there must be something more there for Rumple to cash in his favor for Emma and Henry to leave town with him to help him find his son. Agreeing to a deal with Cora where they come to some sort of temporary truce where she’ll leave him alone and Belle for the time being, or she takes care of Hook for him while he’s gone, or something like that in exchange for him getting Emma and Henry out of town makes the most sense right now.
I dunno, looks to me like after they shake, she takes it upon herself to get a bit too cosy, and there’s nothing he can do to get away, even if he wanted to. I’ll be surprised if it turns into a real kiss. More likely that half a second later he pulls away and spits out the CoraCooties.
I hope so. Just please don’t let them use the idea of Bae not being Rumple’s real son but Regina being his real daughter that is going around right now. Maybe at one time it could have worked, but I think it would be gross now because of the way that Regina and Rumple interact has definitely not been in a father-daughter way. If the show weren’t on ABC on Sunday nights at 8, it might be interesting to see the fall out from Bae not really being Rumple’s son and Regina really being his daughter, but since it’s not that kind of show, I don’t want to see them actually do that story line. I think it’s powerful enough for Neal to be Baelfire without having to add another twist on top of that.
