Well I definitely think Gold is going to look for Neal/Bae......and of course that Belle would go with him. Emilie was seen in photos where it appeared the group was going on the ship.

I think this one time Belle will ok his use of magic to magic her some travelling clothes, lol. There's no way she would have taken time to change when all the hubub is going on around them. We know that the dwarves were seen running, as were Emma and Regina.

I also would like to say that besides it not making sense romantically for Gold/Belle to separate, Belle should not be treated any differently than Emma or Snow or anyone else. She risked her life to get Bae's shawl back and I think, rather than trying to be overprotective, Gold knows that she has absolutely earned the right to go with everyone else. Not only does he want and need to be with her, but Belle is brave, resourceful and clever.

I just think it's pretty obvious that Belle gets her memories back based on the spoiler shots, reports and everything we've heard.

Hmm, I don't know if I want to see Gold turn back into the FTL. It would be funny to see him look that way and still have Gold's persona, lol. I suspect that he does have control over his appearance and I'm not sure that just being in Neverland or any other world would make him automatically change.

FAU

We know that he's involved and I think there were set pics of him with the group on the ship.

Rhonwen

There were pics of him on the ship some with the group, and a couple of him looking up at Hook and Regina talking to them.

Betsybelle

We honestly don't know that the ship set sail with Gold on it.....or anyone, really. I think we just don't have enough information at this point

Yeah, but those images might have been for rehearsal. I remember someone pointing out that Colin wasn't wearing his hook in those images and had both hands visible.

Bottom line is the entire main cast was filming at the Jolly Roger for several hours that day. Fans and spoiler bloggers were very far from the action and couldn't tell what was going on. So we really don't know what is happening in those images. We just know it involved the entire main cast. We'll have to wait until the finale to find out.

Yeah, those are the ones I was talking about.

I tell U the only thing that is getting me through this stupid break from OUAT is Dallas.

I do know when both Dallas and OUAT go off air after this season I'm going to go through with drawls.

Lucas4Brooke

I don't even have my other shows... they're all on hiatus! Two of them comeback next week(OUAT & BatB) The other two, the week after that(Arrow & Scandal) and the last one is already on Summer hiatus (TWD) UGH!

FAU

Too many hiatuses. .

scififan2009

I know. All I've got to watch at the moment is Doctor Who and Game of Thrones.

Rhonwen

I didnt notice that.. hmm it might be then. Sounds like no one really knows what is going on for the finale episodes or who is going for certain. Guess we'll be in for a surprise..

as for this long hiatus, it's killing me. I watch Dr Who, caught up on Sherlock, but there is nothing else that grabs my attention. The enhanced episodes really dont give anything new that we dont know, maybe this Sunday's special will give us something, at least a new promo..

Violet Faust

Agreed, but honestly the writers have done a lot of things this season that make no sense, characterwise. So like Belleislove, I'm trying not to get my hopes up.

These new dock photos do make me more hopeful that if Belle is staying, Gold is as well. The fact that they come strolling up arm-in-arm when the rest of the group is already there makes me think maybe they are sort of seeing them off/making last-minute plans. I'm fine with BOTH Rumple and Belle staying in SB--not only would they be together (yay!) but I'm sure that Rumple won't be ignored for eight episodes, which is my fear for Belle.

We haven't even met Lacey, though. For all we know, Regina could have made her a black belt (in my dreams, Keith is lying on the ground not because Gold walloped him with the cane but because Lacey pepper-sprayed him when he wouldn't take no for an answer). And if mild Mary Margaret could kick a guy out a second-story window with the proper inspiration, I'm sure Lacey could channel her inner badassery.

My dream! This would be perfect. And I admit, I'd even prefer to see Lacey in Neverland than Belle--just the thought of her taking on mermaids and pirates in her seven-inch heels and four-inch skirt makes me laugh.

Just for the record:
THIS. I need her to go off on everyone, actually. e. v. e. r. y. o. n. e. Regina locked her up, Hook shot her among other things, and everyone else stood aside and lied to her and ignored her and let her be forcibly drugged. She probably saved Archie's life, or at least saved him from more torture, and he couldn't be bothered to visit her? She doesn't have to be angry forever, but good grief. The girl deserves a voice after the abuse she's taken.

Going back a bit:

Milah was a piece of work, but she was his piece of work. I don't like Hook but as far as I'm concerned he gets to hate Rumple forever for killing her (he doesn't get to attack or destroy innocent people to get to Rumple but that's another story). Which is why I really can't see those two ever coexisting peacefully. I can't see Neal/Bae ever forgiving Rumple for Milah, for that matter. How can the writers hope to pull this off?

Also re: Hook:

"Chained-up prisoner" = Belle (remember he hadn't finished unchaining her before he belted her in the face). "Imprisoned princess" = Aurora, though I might have that one wrong--I don't remember if Cora had already captured her when Hook stole her heart. But I think she was at least unconscious. And he wasn't just "asking Archie questions"--Archie was obviously terrified of Hook; he didn't give up Belle in casual conversation. IMO, Hook does not need to dislike children in general to have a vendetta against one kid who annoyed him.

Also way back when, I didn't mean to set off a long discussion on diversity on the show, but one thing that has disappointed me is how they stick to the Disney canon rather than exploring more lesser-known (and often more interesting) fairy tales. There are very rich African, Asian, Middle Eastern, Native American (and more) fairy/folktale traditions--I'd love to see characters like Anansi, Coyote, and so on in SB.

I had no idea that she was upgraded to a regular on TWD. That's great news!! Thanks.
