It's still unconfirmed that the mermaid the Evil Queen was talking about in "Skin Deep" is Ariel. It's likely is Ariel since she's the only mermaid we know of that the EQ made a deal with, but still there's nothing else to go on besides that. That's the main reason Ariel isn't explictably written in as that "certain mermaid" the EQ mentioned in Skin Deep.
