The Bae scarf thing is that Belle needed to find something that Rumple touched when he was a man to heal him (which makes me so mad how they literally made that up for this episode only) and that Bae's scarf was something that Rumple had. It would have been a great callback to Neal and season 2, plus Belle knows about it.

It makes Belle look stupid when she knows what to find and has been "looking for something" and Emma stumbles upon the random sword noone remembers that touched Rumple.

The more infuriating thing is that why didn't the Apprentice tell them that. They set it up that Rumple will take time to recover and all Belle had to do was drop Bae's scarf on him (well, they said other ingredients but Emma didn't use other ingredients).
