Everyone makes great points which I'm sure the episode might dwell on. The Charming bunch aren't tasked with helping everyone. Snow has shown to have her personal bias and I'm sure the others have their own. Being a hero doesn't mean helping everyone everywhere (which is why Emma's task of giving everyone their happy ending is impossible).

However, it is relevant to point out that Belle has asked for help before, they turned her down. Belle went to help save Emma, she babysits regularly, and she's a resourceful person. We all know Belle lives in her bubble, but that shouldn't be the case as it leads to these awkward situations. Emma last talked to Belle one on one probably.......never. Snow and Belle....never. David and Belle....never, but the couple likely talked offscreen.

When the plots intertwine....
