Once Upon A Time Episode Guide
Dreamy the dwarf approaches Belle and thanks him for her advice, and says that he and Nova
are planning to run off together. He overhears Alistair talking and suggests that Belle go with the
hunting party. Belle believes that she’ll be safer in her library and admits that the last time she
faced a beast, it didn’t go well for her. As the hunters leave, Dreamy tells Belle that she should
take a chance, and Belle agrees. As she starts to leave, Dreamy gives Belle a pack of fairy dust
and assures her that the good magic could come in handy. Smiling, he tells her to go be a hero.
When Bell goes back to the library, she finds Hook reading a book. She soon recognizes him as
the man who broke into her cell at the Evil Queen’s castle and tries to run. When Hook intercepts
her, Belle drops a bookshelf on him and hides in the elevator, closing the door behind her. She
calls Gold on her cell phone but the metal prevents most of her message from going out. Despite
that, Gold realizes that she’s in danger.
As the hunting parties travels across the land, Belle sits in the back of the wagon and reads
her book. Alistair asks how that will help and Belle tells them that she should be able to find the
beast based on the writings. She tells Alistair that the Yaoguai lives near a lake and he kicks her
off the wagon and tosses her the book, satisfied that she’s provided as much help as she can.
Smiling, Belle checks the book and confirms what she really knew: that the Yaoguai dwells in
mountain caves. She finds the entrance to the Yaoguai’s lair and draws her knife. The creature
comes charging out at her but Mulan opens fire on it, driving it off. The warrior goes to Belle and
complains that she ruined their hunt, but Belle insists that she knows where they can find the
creature. Angry, Mulan tells her to stay out of her way.
After a few moments, Hook stops pounding on the elevator door and goes away. Gold arrives
and gets Belle out, assuring her that she’s safe now.
The townspeople go to Mary Margaret’s apartment for Archie’s wake, and Henry tells Emma
that he isn’t hungry. Emma talks to her mother, who assures Emma that she did everything that
she could. Leroy comes over and, speaking for the dwarves, asks when they will return to the
Enchanted Forest. Now that Archie is dead, they’re worried that it isn’t as safe in Storybrooke as
they believed.
Also, they are concerned that an outsider will eventually come to Storybrooke and realize who
they are. Emma doesn’t see cause for concern but Leroy notes that they’d also like to see the
outside world and benefit from modern technology.
As Gold takes Belle to the shop, he insists that she stay there for her own safety. Belle wants
to know why Hook wants him dead and Gold reluctantly admits that Hook took his wife Milah
away, and then she died. He refuses to provide more details, including his own involvement, and
they go into the shop. Gold is shocked discover that Hook has already been there, having lured
Gold out by attacking Belle and letting her make the call.
Nearby, Hook watches Gold and Belle from a rooftop and smiles in satisfaction. Smee arrives
with Bae’s shawl and Hook assures him that Gold is now trapped in Storybrooke.
Gold smashes the counters in a fury when he realizes that Hook has taken Bae’s shawl. Belle
blames herself but Gold assures her that Hook wants him. She offers to help but Gold warns her
that she’s out of her league and to go back to the library so that he doesn’t lose her as well. He
gives Belle his gun to protect herself in case Hook comes after her again. As Gold leaves, Belle
tries to make him promise just to get the shawl, but he leaves without saying anything.
When Belle goes to the nearby village, Alistair and one of his men find her and attack her,
angry that she tricked them into going to the lake. Mulan arrives and drives them off, although
one of them manages to wound her in the leg. Belle thanks Mulan for her help and Mulan says
that she fought with men who didn’t believe she was capable. She tells Belle that they should
hunt the Yaoguai together since Belle knows how to find it. Belle agrees, glad to help her new
friend.
Belle goes back to the library to clean up and finds a knotted piece of rope that Hook dropped.
Looking it up in a book, Belle confirms that it is a knot found on a sailing ship and realizes that
Hook’s ship is in the harbor.
Gold tracks down Smee and demands to know where Hook is. The pirate’s lieutenant admits
that Hook didn’t tell him what he had planned next. Convinced, Gold tells Smee that he’s a
sniveling rat and transforms him into a rat.
Belle goes to the dock and eventually spots gulls perched on the invisible ship’s mast. Using
some sand, she makes out the stairs and boards the ship, passing through the invisibility spell’s
edges. She searches below decks and hears Archie calling for help.
