Do you think that was the undoing of the dark one via the prophesy? I hope not, because that would have been a pretty lame undoing for a prophecy. Don't get me wrong, Belle taking charge of her life right there wasn't lame, but if that was Rumples undoing, then that undoing would be pretty lame and unbefitting of the Dark One. I think Rumple's actual undoing might come towards the end of 4B, especially since so far he has been the main antagonist of season 4. Rumple could have stopped Ingrid at anytime but he chose to let her do what she was doing for the sole purpose of having all of the towns attention fixed on her while he separated himself from his dagger in private.
