Personal notes, then my more objective report.

I saw Belle at the window, I went from...

"Aw that's cute!"

"Oh, is Rumple aware of what she's doing?"

"Oh, no, no, no, no!"

I thought she died pulling down curtains. Since I keep show romance as a tool of writing, I think this was the best culmination of both characters' journey. It sucks that Rumple's "road beyond redemption" was mostly offscreen, but the writers wrote in elements from his past that stuck around.

Only confusing part was the realm jumping as they never said what the in-between SB and End of Realms was. Time flow was fast there, but all I know is 18 year old Gideon was accepted into Fairy School (Elphame Academy, Elphame is the country also known as Fairyland ruled by a Fairy Queen). And I realized that so far, the fairy prophecies all seem to be about Rumple, lol.
