Actually, I think the flashback on 3.06 served a couple of purposes. First, what ws said about not keeping secrets, which tied into the present day storyline. by also using this to introduce Ariel, it paved the way for 3.07, when Ariel goes to SB, and she and Belle work together to find Pandora's box and stop the Darling brothers from destroying it. That particular episode had Belle doing something that was important on her own

Just saying that, imo, the flashback in 3.06 served to tie to 2 episodes. Particularly since 3.07 did not have a flashback itself (which is fine since it was switching between SB and NL).

Now, as for the title of  "Family Business", this could be part of the present day SB story where Henry is working as an apprentice for Gold, and maybe also learning more Dark Magic in the process.
