Belle and Rumple will have their private time while Belle has noone to talk to...at least Ruby may be around. Judging by the promo and first sneak peek, the b-plot involving the heroes will be them attempting to storm Hades' lair. Maybe we'll have some things moving forward there.

And I feel like their side mission of saving other souls has probably unofficially come to an end, looking at the "dead" UW people that are left. They've set up a moment for David to confront James, but I think that's it for the heroes specifically saving dead people? (There's also Cora, but her final status will have to do with Zelena more so than Regina) So, I'll change it. The heroes will travel to Hades' lair and they will learn absolutely nothing and will accomplish anything by doing that. I mean, there's nothing in his lair and Rumple and Emma were practically there last week.

So basically you're theorizing this episode will probably be as much filler as people expect "Ruby Slippers" to be? I'll also say I think the pacing in this episode is going to be hit and miss what with Gaston's "vengeance" and Emma's "terrifying nightmare that she realizes is beginning to come true." I'd say the main plot points of this episode will be as rushed as Zelena and Hades' whirlwind romance.
