– so obviously after all these years Hook is still driven by one and only thing – to kill Rumplestiltskin. And he’s pretty particular about it – if you can’t help him (i.e. your name is Belle), then you are as useless as piece of dirt. But he still gets all the sexy looks flirts from both mother and daughter…
I can’t help a feeling that he’s hiding something. He saved Aurora’s hear and he practically let Emma beat him – I mean a girl with a sword only for the second time in her hands versus a 300 years worth of pirate fighting experience? He’s onto something!
I totally agree. Why would he save Aurora’s heart? Does he actually want them to find Phillip or something? Hook’s intentions have always been questionable, but I’m wondering why he even brought Cora along in the first place. They could have parted ways, and then him just used the bean for himself. Does he actually want Cora to come with him to Storybrooke? If so, then why?
– Rumple’s blur on Cora coming through – he spoke like he had no doubt Cora is going to bring havoc to the place and kill Henry – Rumple sounded like he really didn’t think they could stand a chance against her! What’s with the sudden change of attitude, Mr Gold? 5 minutes ago he was claiming that Cora is no threat to him and that he is stronger than her by any means and then all that talk? Hmpf.
The only thing I can think of is that he was saying all that to manipulate Regina in to helping him, which by the way, I really wanted to punch him in the freakin face after that!
– My heart broke for Regina. Multiple times. She even stood up to Rumple and said she didn’t want to help him and use magic. She was even WORRIED about Snow and Emma!!!! She’s really trying so so hard… And then she SAVED them. She really did it and Henry… well, he didn’t even run towards her when she fell on her knees afterwards. It was horrible. Very uncool kid! And Regina’s face when Emma and Henry got reunited. Heart break after a heart break. She just risked EVERYTHING so that he could have it his way, she really did what he asked for and he didn’t even ask if she was ok when she lifted the spell.
I was really happy when he did come back to her eventually in Rumple’s shop and properly said thank you and they hug but then… they go out to eat and… another heart break. WHY are you doing this to me??? And Mr Gold just HAD to dig this even more “you just reunited mother and son. Maybe one day they’ll even invite you to a dinner?” I’m sorry but this is just plain cruel.
Oh my gosh, I kept yelling at the tv over this! I think my dad thinks I’m crazy…. but seriously, what is wrong with that kid? He’s such a jerk! Regina falls to the ground, clearly in pain, and he doesn’t even say, “are you all right?” No. He’s just so concerned over Emma and Snow, he throws her to the side. I too, was incredibly happy when he finally hugged her. I think I might have been tearing up. And then they left and was like, “C’mon, Henry! Invite her! Invite her!” and then he turns to her and my hopes are dashed. “See you later.” Seriously? After all this woman has done for you!?!? Gosh, it makes me crazy. I do understand him wanting to spend some time with his family since they just got back, really I do, but the least he could have done is ask if she wanted to come with them. Come on, Henry. It’s not that hard.
– the ink. Throughout the entire episode I was shouting at the screen: “WHAT *(please avoid obscenities)*, YOU HAVE THE INK ON THIS PIECE OF PAPER, WHAT ELSE ARE YOU LOOKING FOR?!”. I was really disappointed with how slow their minds worked, I know Emma was distracted with her new discovery on Rumple planning it all along but no one else noticed the fact! I mean, what else could Rumple use to write Emma’s name, huh? HUH?!
Yeah, I didn’t actually catch that at first and I was racking my brain trying to figure out if Aurora stole the ink or something, but then it went to a commercial break and I was like “Oh. Duh. The scroll.” I felt really stupid after that…
– something REALLY REALLY bothered me. Snow said “When I was a little girl I used to sneak into Cora’s chamber and watch her practice magic.” WHAT? I mean CORA’S chamber? But Regina got rid of Cora even before her wedding! Has Cora been connected to Leopold and his kingdom before Regina saved Snow?
Maybe this was referring to the few weeks in between Regina rescuing Snow and her marriage to Leopold?
– whatever happened to the “you found me”-“I will always find you” line? they didn’t say it, so it doesn’t count!!!! 😆
I was almost dissapinted when they didn’t say that. It just… wasn’t the same.
– the bean!!!! The ship sailing to SB was SO COOL.
Okay, yes it was cool, however, I have one important question. If Emma and Snow used the compass, how did Cora and Hook get there? I mean, they made such a big deal about having to have that compass, but then Cora and Hook just show up? Makes no sense.
