I remember that article.......... it was from TV Line

I mean......this is just a PERFECT scene. I'll let Em describe it:

Quote:

Before said swell of emotion truly gets underway, the hour opens with the simplest of scenes, as Belle and Rumple ready for son Gideon’s first birthday, outside Granny’s diner in Storybrooke. “I love all the scenes, but I love that scene at the start,” de Ravin says. “Rumple and the little baby — and it was such a good little baby [actor]! The simplicity in that scene is so pretty and so lovely.”

Totally agree

Belleislove · 01-19-2018, 06:58 AM

It was a scene we had wanted for years. Just domestic bliss.

And the writers, wrongly, imo, always felt that people didn't want to see these scenes with any of the characters so we got so few of them. Big mistake, imo.

Everything was so plot driven - and with A and B, they had to squeeze entire plots into 11 episodes, hence very few character moments.
I’m just glad that Rumbelle got by far the best story...their trials and tribulations made their happy ending that much sweeter

Most of the flashbacks in that episode were just domestic bliss, which is why it was so great. Also it was just the two of them, and Gideon. I really loved that.

And yeah, what were the writers thinking?

Indeed we did

Some quotes from post-Beauty interviews that are relevant:

Quote:

“It meant everything,” de Ravin tells The Hollywood Reporter of being able to tell the rest of Belle’s story. “It’s been such a beautiful story and such a hectic story. Rumple and Belle’s relationship has been such an amazing rollercoaster — and it has been a rollercoaster — and it’s been lovely to be able to focus solely on this new chapter of their life and see that it is possible, through everything they’ve been through, to come to a point of peace and just to have each other and to enjoy life for life without all the interferences of the exterior—whether that be places or people or situations — just to enjoy and to be happy within themselves.

She continues, “Especially for Rumple, to not live every second on the edge, [thinking] ‘the dagger, the dagger, the dagger.’ And for [Belle] not to be ‘is he going to be thinking about it?’ Just to have this change of sanctuary that they built and enjoyed together is so beautiful and it’s a testament to true love. True love not for another person, but true love of yourself, I think.”

Quote:

Kitsis: I would say we felt like we owed it to us. It was something we wanted to see. We spent six years keeping them apart, bringing them together, having the drama, and so we just wanted to see the love story now. We feel like we earned it, so let’s see it. I think that’s really what it came down to, and obviously we knew that was something the fans wanted. One of the fears that the fans had when they realized we were doing this new reboot was we would be taking away the happy endings… the legacy of the first six years is very important to us. We’re not taking away anything, hopefully, we’re adding on a new story.

Horowitz: For us, it was very important that Rumple and Belle have a happy ending. These characters deserved it, and that was part of the reason for doing this episode; to show how they did have this ultimate happiness together.

Quote:

Did you guys feel like you had a responsibility to show fans the full picture of what happened to this character and how her life played out before saying goodbye?

de Ravin: Yes, I think it was important to give them their story and to give them their ending and to give the audience the enjoyment of seeing Rumple and Belle have the fruitful, somewhat peaceful life that they never really had been able to obtain before.

Quote:

EM:
I was so excited to be able to bring their story to the fans and to bring their later years in love, and to be able to play that was really beautiful. They’ve had quite a tumultuous relationship, so for them to be able to get to a place of such acceptance with each other and themselves, and with life, and this inner peace that has washed over them. They’ve been able to now show everyone maybe you can come to a point — whether it’s with someone else or with yourself, or with both — of just having that, having life be life, an acceptance of what it is, an acceptance of living, an acceptance of dying. Her acceptance of mortality is shining a lot brighter than his acceptance or non-acceptance of immortality, which you’d expect to be the reverse in a way. That’s quite beautiful and was lovely to play. I’m going on and on, but just because able to bring full-circle their story was a blessing and I was really happy when they said they were going to do this.

Wonderful quotes there

Betsybelle · 01-20-2018, 10:51 AM

Yep.. I really, really loved hearing from Emilie; she's always so thoughtful and insightful (sadly, interviews with her were few and far between).

It would have been nice if Bobby would have agreed to an interview as well considering that, until proven otherwise, Beauty was Em's last appearance

Seamstress90 · 01-20-2018, 01:14 PM

Lovely quotes
