What about the kiss Charming gave Snow to get her memory back after she took the forgetting potion? Didn't TLK work then?

You know as much as I do that I believe Hook has True Love for Emma. I believe he fell in love when Emma kissed him on NL, just has Charming fell in love with Snow when he saw his mother's ring on Snow's finger. His kiss to jog her memory was just like Charming's when he tried to jog her memory (and succeeded.) He said "I have to make you remember." He knew he needed to do so to break the curse. Yes, he was excited to see her, no doubt. Thought he'd never see her again. Probably took him awhile to track her down in NYC. But he was counting on the kiss to break the curse.

As for Rumble and Belle. I know what you're saying about original versions, but OUAT has always been about putting their own spin on them and we have to go by TEQ's words.
