Yeah.. But then I'm not expecting to get much more before 7B starts, honestly. I mean, we really don't know very much about the other characters' arcs either. Or at least I don't know, lol.

[Betsybelle]

No, but we've had a lot of info via EW, TV Line, etc... about Regina/Zelena, Tiana,.....If any questions about Rumple's quest have been asked (I know they have because I have asked more than once), they haven't been answered.

Well, Rumple's centric starts filming next week......I'm hoping and praying that Em will film a bit for that, though even if she does, we'll probably not know it since I doubt it would be announced. LOL Remember how top secret they tried to keep MRJ's return in S5?

yeah it is a bit frustrating, even a tiny bit of info would do me..

[Seamstress90]

I wonder if Natalie will ever post that Hot Seat?

[Betsybelle]

She probably forgot, lol. I would say she'd post it closer to the 7B premiere, but at the time she did the Hot Seat (December), she said she'd post it soon. I doubt we'll get much info from it anyway - we never really do. Still, it would be SOMETHING...........

[crazy_diamond]

let's hope she does post it...

[Seamstress90]

Yep, and preferably sooner than later..

ETA: OUAT will be filming in a bookstore next week Hopefully Bobby will be there..



Also: THE HOT SEAT! Great timing

The Rumple-related answers:

Are Rumple and Regina going to team up? KITSIS: Oh, I hope so. Will Rumple’s motives regarding the dagger change during the second half of the season? KITSIS: His motives don’t change, but his actions may. Have we actually already seen The Guardian? KITSIS: Well, that is an interesting question, because — like the Dalai Lama — once one Guardian is done, another one appears. I guess the answer is yes. Will we see Gideon return? KITSIS: Can’t say.

YES to Rumple and Regina teaming up!

His motives don't change, but his actions may? Hmm...

Oh I do hope we'll see Gideon again!

Also..

Will any familiar faces die by season’s end? KITSIS: Yes

Rumple, me thinks.

[crazy_diamond]

she must of heard us!

Good to hear Rumple and Regina teaming up and actions....

ooo for Gideon and filming next week

[Seamstress90]

Maybe she's a medium

More filming next week (ignore the dates on the call sheet!)



So, a scene with the troll statue? something Alice-related? Maybe we'll see the sacrifice Rumple made for her in this episode?

[Betsybelle]

I wish NA had asked about Belle, like she did Gideon, but I suppose we’d also get a “can’t say” - and she sort of addressed it in the first question about former regulars. I only thought she might ask about Belle because I know she was asked.


A/E meant when they said Rumple’s actions would change?


Hmm…I want to think this could relate to Belle….it has to!
Imagine if Rumple has a vision of her - or she appears to him? Sob..
*when I get home, I’ll post photos of the bookstore - Belle would love it!

No doubt, Rumple is dying...,

I'm sort of excited about Rumple's arc, but also sad.......I miss Emilie so much, and if she returns, it's likely just for one scene. I still think she deserved better - and I'll always hate that she and Bobby didn't work together nearly enough

[crazy_diamond]

Seamstress - I hope so....want some Alice and Rumple scenes and she could be

and scene in a bookshop

[Seamstress90]

I want more Rumple/Alice scenes too I'm looking forward to their adventures in EF2

I have a feeling "his motives don't change, his actions may" means Rumple becomes desperate after Anastasia stops being the Guardian (I bet she'll turn "dark" when she learns what her mother and sister have done to everyone) and he begins to consider other ways to get rid of the dagger.. After all, that's the kind of stuff the writers like to do with Rumple. Of course he will eventually get back on the right track.

[crazy_diamond]

yeah I wouldn't be surprised at all if he goes into desperate mode and finds anyway he can to get to The Guardian...

Bring us all more Rumple and Alice

[Betsybelle]

I just don’t see Rumple going down that path again.....it’s been done to death, and people probably expect it of him. He’s not going to earn his way to the Afterlife by going dark and then turning around, not after centuries of being the DO. Rumple has lived 60 plus years as a “good man with a pure heart”...he’s continued being that even without Belle, and he has to continue to be so. I don’t see him becoming desperate at all (which, if he did, would prove himself unworthy of the Afterlife and would prove Belle’s faith in him to be unjustified) - I think, in fact, he’ll continue to do what he has to do, knowing that eventually he will find the Guardian and be reunited with Belle. I think he understands that it will take as long as it has to take because he’ll be with her for eternity if successful; months and years are a drop in the bucket when compared to eternity. This is his ultimate, permanent redemption - it will be different than other times. I would also point out that Adam and Eddy’s post-Beauty spoilers tell me that Rumple IS going to stay in “the light”....



I’m “eh” on Rumple and Alice mostly because I resent that it’s another year where he doesn’t have scenes with Belle...that’s just me. Even if I don’t watch 7B, I think it will be a wonderful arc for him

[crazy_diamond]

I don't see him going down that path either..

With this arc, I'm glad he has friends, like Alice, along with the journey to get back to Belle, that he is not alone...
