If so, then you are saying is that they are all liars, even when it makes no sense to lie. If we can't trust the show, then technically we should put it in every article that there's uncertainty......Oh wait, that's not how it works because it's true until it's not. I'm just saying people take way too much at face value. Lumiere is a character whom what he said we should have not put much stock into. He was a prisioner of Zelena, and he was going to say whatever Zelena needed him to, in order for Neal to open the vault. So to then come and be like "Look a retcon, because Lumiere said..." is just silly. It makes sense that Lumiere was never telling the truth given the curcumstances of the episode. I get we can't assume everything everyone says is a lie, but at the same time, we should be more careful when something is only heresay, and not shown to us.
