It could be CPR, which is funny to me because I made a joke on these threads ages ago about the students not being able to tell Raven giving a drowning Apple CPR apart from True Love's First Kiss, and will appease soccer moms.
It could work because the kiss of a princess is apparently supposed to break curses in this setting based on stuff in the books, although the webisodes and the books don't follow the same rules.
It could work because Darling is a hero at heart and cares about saving Apple, while Daring was not meant to be with her and couldn't give her True Love's Kiss because they're just friends and always will be.
Or maybe Darling's been carrying a torch for Apple all along, decided it was now or never, and took it.
There is no right answer. Believe what you want to believe.
