I thought of a recent theory for how Rumple helps Belle regain her memories:
After Rumple has courted her enough to gain “Lacey’s” trust, perhaps he will convince her to “take a leap of faith” and drink some water from the well. The well, as we know, appears to be Storybrooke’s counterpart to Lake Nostos and has been described to “have the power to bring back what was once lost”, just like the water from the lake. It would be ironic if the very well that brought magic with its price of the barrier curse happens to also be the cure for anyone who lost their memory as a result of crossing the line. I think Rumple needs to take some advice from August, and retrace his steps to figure out this solution.
I like this. Except of course if Henry blows up the well in the next episode. 🙄
Henry tries to blow up the well in 2×17, but we don’t know yet if he actually succeeds. I doubt he does, since from the looks of it, Regina is on the scene in a hurry, followed by PC, Emma, and Bae. If the well remains as it is, I could totally see the water from Lake Nostos restoring Belle’s (and Sneezy’s) memories.

I read a very intriguing connection to the Peter Pan theory on Tumblr:
Neal’s fake birth state on his wanted poster was New Jersey. Camden, New Jersey has a special Peter Pan statue cast from an original commissioned by the author Barrie. It’s one of a set of 5 in the entire world, and the only one in the US.

Well, ok. Let’s go inside his head. How was magic brought to SB? Through the well and through bottle true love. If you destroy the well, and maybe the last remaining true love down in there, maybe the magic goes away.
which is just faulty logic but he’s 11.
Yeah, I’ll give him a pass for being a precious 11-year-old and for thinking he could be rid of magic. He’s from a land without magic and doesn’t really know any better. Yet, how he doesn’t think dynamite might kill him is just plain dumb. Explosions, fire, death, all exist in this world. Henry, please, this isn’t make-believe.

I don’t think Henry planned on being caught by Regina or Rumple. He probably thought he could beat them to the well and destroy it before anyone used any magic to stop him. Yet, how he thinks dynamite can trump magic in all of SB beats me.

Well, we know Regina can crush hearts in a magicless town, as evidenced by the Sheriff Who Shall Not Be Named. But the boy is so young, what did Regina do after she killed his father? She can’t just put him on a bus to Boston. And no one else can leave SB except her, so unless she left and took him to a orphanage, I think both Ben and “Owen” got out.
Well, it’s possible for “Greg” to be grown-up Owen, which would mean he (and maybe his dad) escaped from SB in 1983, and he has returned to investigate further.

I wonder what Henry is going to do.
In one of the pics it looks like Henry is trying to blow up the well using dynamite. Good luck with that, kid.

It seems like Henry is threatening to blow up the well, a portal to other lands, using the dynamite. Why? Regina looks like she’s begging for him to stop. Just what is going on?
ETA: I think this is Henry’s “solution” to putting an end to magic. He thinks that by blowing up the well, into which Mr. Gold dropped the magic love potion to bring magic to SB, he’ll get rid of once and for all. Yet, I doubt it really works like that.

If they would act all rational they should see that there is no point at all, sword or whatever silly weapon they use, to win a fight against such powerful magic, so why don’t they surrender? 😉 😈
I don’t want them to surrender. I’m just tired of their POSTURING. They always act like they don’t even KNOW that their swords are useless. They always seem to think, “This time, it’ll work!” And that’s just stupid.
Prince Charming kept saying, “let justice take it’s course” and then went around waving a sword, but Snow is the only one with the gumption to do what needed to be done. She fought magic with magic, which saved her and her family. Prince Charming, though brave and admirable, needs to think through his strategy. Perhaps if he’d recruited the fairies, he could have overpowered Regina and Cora long enough to let justice, rather than vengeance, rule. Yet, in Snow’s eyes, she was justified in using dark magic to defeat the same dark evil who stole her parents from her. She’ll pay the price, of course, but just maybe it was worth it to save everyone.

Ok I’m gonna throw it out there… Because it would make such a nice plottwist. But in theater Peter Pan is always played by a girl, it’s tradition… So what if Peter is a girl. Then it could be Tamara or Ariel even.
That sounds unlikely, and not because I’m against Peter actually being female per se, but because we’ve already seen the executive producers do that with Jacqueline in the Jack and the Beanstalk adaptation. The first time was surprising, but the second time not so much. I think it’s more engaging to the story if someone major, like Bae or Hook, turns out to be Peter Pan.
