Are you sure this is a good idea? I'm still trying to figure out who I am, and I think my head's been more than a little messed up without adding anything else to this. I know that friends are a good idea, I'm making some, but I need to do this on my own. I appreciate that you're trying to help, really, I'm just taking it one step at a time - one slow step. After being locked away for twenty-eight years? I think I'm entitled to that.

Unfortunately good idea isn't always something people see eye to eye on. It's... good to see you standing up for yourself.

[But if you need it, Belle, he's totally ready to turn any problem folks into salamanders. No sweat.]

I know, I was just hoping that I might be able to reason with her. [ And hopefully she's less of a tough subject than you, Rumple ] Oh. Thanks. I don't know that it's working but I'm trying.

Reasoning is it? Well, I've heard of stranger things in my time. Though it's an uphill battle in situations such as this, when there's... a power imbalance.

Sometimes, I'm led to believe, that's what counts.

Well I think it's at least worth a try. [ Even if she'll probably fail she'd rather try firs ]

That sounds like a good thing to remember. [ You know, for you ]

I'd offer what help I can, but... You do seem to be standing well on your own.

[And he knows his help is... well.] I'll try to keep it in mind myself, yes.

You think so? [ Really? Wow ] Well, thank you anyway.

Why wouldn't it be a good idea? Don't you want the freedom?

But I have freedom already. [ When you've been locked away for so long anything else is freeing ] And I like Storybrooke.

We don't belong there.

But what if we could? There's so much there, so much we can experience. [ Have you had pancakes, Jefferson? Have you? ]

Hey, don't worry. Anyone wants to keep messing with me, they'll have to go through me first. We still got a lot of junk food and fun, fruity drinks to cover in girls' night.

And maybe this time leave the chains somewhere else? [ Because that was not fun even if she does sort of understand why you did it ]
