     “Gil! Come’ere! I’m ditching classes today, you wanna come with or did your lame pirate friends need you?” She asks in a teasing tone, a hand on her hip.

Okay so you know how in Beauty in the Beast…

This lady can’t afford six eggs, which always struck me as a little odd but I figured maybe that was normal in a poor French village. I mean, look at all the little kids she has; she probably struggles to afford any kind of food that would feed all of them… Right?

But later we discover something interesting about Gaston:

Gaston eats five dozen eggs every day. That’s 60 eggs. SIXTY. Which adds up to 420 eggs per week. No wonder this poor village doesn’t have enough of them to go around!

Gaston, who is very well-respected and successful and probably makes good money from his fabulous hunting skills, is cornering the entire egg market. To feed his addiction, he probably has to constantly go around and buy out every farmer’s supply of eggs, which causes the price on any remaining eggs to skyrocket.

Gaston is singlehandedly destroying the town’s economy.

Okay, I know everyone’s here for Gil x Jay these days, and I see and respect you all, but I’m gonna take a moment to Go Off about the Gil x Harry in the Berry Bush scene

(warning: this might get long)

Because I can definitely see it as a case of mildly jealous/possessive Harry. Harry is, after all, not used to having to share Gil’s attention with anyone but Uma, especially since Uma left and it had just been the two of them (and their crew Of Course, but I don’t think it can be argued that any of them (sans obviously Uma) are closer to Harry or Gil than they are to each other). But now Gil’s complimenting Jay and talking with him in that rambly way he does.

And at first Harry doesn’t care, Gil can do what he wants, they’re on a mission.

But by the time Jay’s mentioning tourney, Harry can’t hold back a snarky remark, both as a remnant of their general rivalry- Harry can never hold back a teasing jab- and a bit as a ploy to get Gil’s attention back. A sort of ‘Gil this prick plays tourney, he’s not worth your time.’ And you can see he’s looking for Gil’s reaction in the next shot, he’s looking right at him with this big smile

but Gil goes back to talking to Jay pretty much instantly, and you can see the smile wipe off Harry’s face.

Then they’re going off about various places they’d have fun going to, and by the time it gets to Jay admitting that he’d love to go see penguins, implying he’d love to go see penguins with Gil, Harry has had enough, and he tells them so with his “You guys are Killing Me!” before going over, looking right at Gil at first

and making a show of himself eating the berry off his Hook. And may I just point out how Gil is positively transfixed by this? As soon as Harry’s standing next to him, Gil’s watching his movements. And you can see all through the scene that Gil tends to talk with his mouth full, something we’ve known since last movie, but for a moment as Harry bites the berry, Gil just stops and freezes and Stares

and Harry gives Jay that Passive-Aggressive smile

before changing the topic entirely and practically Sulking away
