They just got Belle back to being a core member of the cast. If they killed her off now, I'd be pretty ticked off.

But, if it happened, I could see it going two ways: Rumple goes absolutely evil because he has lost his last tether (which was always a weak tether anyway), or he goes good to honor her memory (and takes Gideon as a tether).
