Regina holding Belle hostage was probably just a plot device to move the story forward and to create more tension between Rumpel and Regina. However, it was at the expense of Regina’s villain status. The show does this all the time. In order to move a story a forward, they sacrifice another character’s development or personality. The most notable example of this has been Emma, but it’s happened with Regina too. Everytime she goes up against Rumpel, she loses. Of course, it makes Rumpel look awesome, but Regina loses some of her edge.

Having said that, there’s always the possibility that Regina could have brainwashed Belle against Rumpel during her time in the mental institution. But that would only fuel Rumpel’s hatred and need for vengence against Regina.

I can’t join the good side. It feels too good to be bad. 😈
