Perhaps Rumpel just liked the idea of an earl’s daughter (I don’t think Maurice was a king) having to do servant work. When he was sat at the table telling her what her duties were, she was very accepting of it, something you wouldn’t expect someone of high birth like Belle to be like. He threw in the quip just to probably throw her a curve ball, see how she’d react and when he told her it was a joke she seemed to relax a little. Belle also treats Rumpel like another human being, nobody else seems to.

Keeper of FelixRupel normally goes after something precious from the person who wanted to make the deal hence why he wanted Cinderella’s baby. The most precious thing to Maurice was Belle. Even Belle asked him why he wanted her and he replied “The place was filthy”, but she guessed that he was lonely and I don’t think he denied it. I love it when he talks about having a caretaker for his “rather large estate” because it just sounds like one massive euphemism.

That actually makes semse. But, you’d think they would be releaved that magic didn’t exist in this world. They’ve seen what magic can do when it falls into the wrong hands.
I think they would have to adjust to not being able to use magic especially the fairies/nuns. Magic can be good or evil depending on who’s using it.

Keeper of FelixThere’s something iffy about the Blue Fairy in my opinion, I don’t think she’s a good and innocent as she likes to make out she is. She was too eager to want to get rid of Rumpelstiltskin for some reason and then she practically rubbed salt into his wounds by saying that it was his fault that Baelfire left. She could have been sympathetic, afterall he was a man who’d just lost his son, but she wasn’t. There was a reason why she offered Baelfire that exact solution and Rumpelstiltskin screwed it up by not going with Baelfire so she’s got something going on I reckon.

There may be a chance for Bae to really be dead, but I don’t think the writers in the first season would devote two episodes to the subject and then pop up and say, “Oh, he’s really dead.” But you never know what twists they’ll come up with to keep us on the edge of our seats. It would be a fitting retribution to all Rumple has done.
You know how sometimes certain thoughts just pop into you head with no evidence…just gut feeling? Well, last week when I was watching “The Return” and Henry popped into Gold’s store, the only thing going through my head was “Grandpa”. I’ve thought before this episode that Henry might be kin to Gold, but it just kept circling around and around in my head so much that I had to rewatch that scene to see what they actually said. I think part of it was that Henry’s one of the only people Gold has actually been kind of nice to in Storybrooke without something being in it for him.
Does Gold know that Henry thinks Storybrooke is populated with fairytale characters? I’m trying to think back on all the conversations about it and I can’t remember if Emma mentioned something to Gold or not. I don’t think Henry would say anything and Regina doesn’t seem like she would admit it to Gold that her son is trying to bring her down. Hmmmm….am I forgetting a conversation somewhere?
ME TOO!!! After listening to last week’s podcast, I am convinced that Mr. Gold is Henry’s grandfather. And if that’s the case, then there’s a possibility that Mr. Gold will be secretly going after the custody of Henry himself. In the sneak peek for tonight’s episode, Mr. Gold refused to help Emma win custody against Regina. As soon as I saw that, I immediately thought, “BECAUSE YOU WANT HIM FOR YOURSELF!!!” 😆 😆 😆
Interesting thought. I don’t think Rumpel is going to be reunited with Bae, however, if Henry was related to Rumpel through Bae, it would be something different. Though if that is the case, I can’t see Henry or Gold being aware of that fact at this moment in time.

I have the strangest feeling that Baelfire has been in contact with Belle. No evidence, just a feeling.
It could be the huntsman that Belle has the scene with possibly in fairytale land. I’m sure I heard somewhere that the huntsman was going to reappear towards the end of the series though I could be wrong.
I just have the feeling that Rumpel is going to have to let go of Baelfire. He’s been fixated on finding his son for so long and it was a real kick in the teeth for him when he thought he had actually found him only to realize August was just pretending. I don’t think there will be a reunion between Rumpel and Bae but Rumpel will find out what became of Bae, perhaps he grew up and had a family. I just think that what Rumpel did with the curse all in the name of finding his son is a bit too big (he destroyed everyones lives) to reward him with his son. Bae would probably never forgive him for it anyway.
With Belle coming back into the picture, it’s going to be an interesting time for Rumpel. He believed her to be dead so her turning up alive is going to feel like a second chance to him. He is probably going to be extremely possessive and protective over her and, depending on Belle’s state of mind and how much she remembers, there are going to be a few issues to work out between them.
I can see Rumpel facing a choice. Does he choose Belle who is alive in front of him or does he risk it all and continue searching for Bae? A theme that is prominent with Rumpel is that of cowardice. Now, as a parent, does he continue looking for his child, destroying others lives in the process even though he may never see Bae again or does he come to terms with the fact that his son is gone because of his actions?
Rumpel doesn’t like to accept the blame for his actions, as demonstrated in Skin Deep and the farytale part of the Return. He likes to project the blame and guilt onto others and I think for him to have any chance of redemption he has to fully accept his own wrongdoing and admit to his mistakes. He kind of did that to August when he thought he was Bae in the Return but was just as quick to almost run him through with the dagger when he realised he wasn’t talking to Bae after all.
Rumpel’s got a lot of issues that he hides behind a mask of evil and magic. Belle and Baelfire saw beneath the mask which is why they are the only two who can save Rumpel from himself.

I also think Jefferson wants to rescue Belle so that he can reunite her with Mr. Gold, and accomplish what he was never able to back in Fairytale land. Break his father's curse. Jefferson is rumored to be sharing a scene with Belle in the season finale, so this may be his main goal.
Where did you hear this?

It is not for certain whether she will return in FTL or SB or both. Bae returned only in FTL. August as of yet is seen only in SB. There is a possibility of a FTL appearence of Belle.
Didn’t Robert Carlyle say in an interview that we would probably see “Gold and Belle” rather than “Rumpel and Belle”?
Belle is alive in Storybrooke whereas Baelfire as far as we know isn’t.

Keeper of FelixIf Regina tried to use Belle against Rumpel, all he’d have to ask Regina is to “Please” let Belle go and she would have to comply. I’d rather see Belle escape because then you can see Regina panicking about what will happen if Rumpel discovers Belle and you can see Rumpel’s true feelings towards Belle’s reappearance without having to put up a front for Regina.
