Yes but I think it's clear the only person Narcisse is actually genuine with is Lola. The thing is, I don't know how they can pull them off now because I don't see Narcisse redeeming himself, and I don't know if Lola will ever truly be with "a bad boy" like Narcisse even if she falls in love with him. I guess it's because she's too moral and he's too cunning. I think you compared them before to Rumple and Belle, and now I see what you meant by it. Even if they truly love each other, it would be hard for them to be together because they're just too different.
I'm annoyed by the lack of scenes as well, the show really has a way of ignoring its characters

But the thing is, they can't just throw a scene here and there and have Narcisse hooks-up with anyone. How are we supposed to believe this is genuine? It needs development, following and consistency.

Right now, all I'm seeing is Narcisse being the cunning whore of the castle and Lola doing Mary's dirty work.

RedRidingLola isn't the hiatus after 2.18? I very much we'll have anything this week. Narcisse is going to be fully occupied between Claude and Catherine. The little screentime Lola will have will be with Mary and probably Francis.

Ugh, at this point I want her to completely ignore the manwhore of the castle.
