    How can I see from the main forum menu which forums and subforums have new posts without going in to the forums and looking at the individual threads? The old forum had little colored indicators next to the for names to show which ones had new posts. I find the sidebar is not helpful for that.

    I think Robin Hood will show up in Storybrooke and come forward to help Belle run the town because she once helped him. I’m hoping he will become acting sheriff because Storybrooke really needs another hunky sheriff to take care of business. That makes sense to me because Belle is the only character Robin has interacted with besides Rumple. Also, Emily de Ravin is a good actress but not strong enough to carry the home front storyline by herself and the actors portraying the minor recurring characters are not much help there so a strong actor in a prominent role would help the storyline.

    The casting call for Robin Hood makes sense if they are planning to continue his FTL storyline and have Robin return to the Dark Castle where Belle keeps giving him food and supplies behind Rumple’s back, or Belle uses her flirting skills to coerce Rumple into helping Robin against his will, or something like that.

    Or they just needed to hedge their bets with the casting call in case they couldn’t get Tom Ellis in time.

    Most of those characters appeared in one or a few episodes in a supporting role. That is no different that any other show that has guest stars who never come back after their episode or story arc is done. I’m not seeing a problem there.

    Belle was looking through books of nautical knots in The Outsider. That’s how she figured out that Hook arrived by ship.

    Yes, I also think the bean plant in Regina’s office will come back into play, producing more beans that Belle will use to go on a quest to discover what happened to Nealfire and find Rumple. Belle also has free run of the shop and access to all the magical things in it. I bet Belle tries out more magic after casting the cloaking spell.

    He is probably just guessing. Why would the creators tell some actor who plays a very minor recurring character major plans for plot developments so far in advance? That doesn’t make any sense.

    Collecting hearts and using them to control people has never been Rumple’s thing. He manipulates people to do what he wants by making deals. My impression was that Rumple was carrying on with Cora because he had the hots for her and she was willing but he hadn’t seriously considered love until Cora brought it up on the last day. She dumped him that evening so there was no time for a meaningful love to develop between them.

    Rumple crushed Milah’s heart in a fit of rage after she said that she had never loved him. That had nothing to do with the curse. The seer had already told Rumple that someone else would enact the curse so there was no need for him to worry about getting the heart of the thing he loved the most. That would have been Bae, not Milah.

    We’ve seen other men in FTL wearing jewelry, including necklaces and pendants. Rumplestiltskin has some very nice brooches that he wears with his fancy shirts. Also, have you seen the amount of jewelry Robert Carlyle wears?

    Can we consider Rumple leaving Belle behind a plot hole since to most of us it didn’t make much sense as to why he would do that when he could have left that info with others? Cause I have a theory! If not, where should I drag it to, RG? (I’m horrible with guessing where to put stuff!)

    Belle really is the only one who can enact the cloaking spell because she is the only person Rumple trusts. Belle doesn’t have any innate magic so she will no doubt need something magical from the shop to cast the spell, either a magic wand or a potion she cooks up or something. Rumple would never give anyone else free run of his shop. He has too many things there that other people could use against him. Even if he thinks he might not come back, the thought of just anyone ransacking his shop and using the magic there for who knows what wouldn’t sit well with him. Rumple would want his shop is in Belle’s good hands.

    Neal doesn’t need to know who everyone is himself because he’s got Henry, who cannot stop himself from talking about the characters in his book and who’s who to any captive audience until their ears bleed.
