Yeah, I really don’t understand why people want Hook and Emma together. Yes, he’s good-looking but the guy is really evil. He’s been plotting his revenge for hundreds of years, he’s murdered, and he’s double crossed pretty much everyone he’s ever worked with. If that doesn’t tell you that the guy is bad news I don’t know what will.

Yet people want Rumpelstiltskin and Regina to find love and they also did absolutely horrible things. They ruined MANY lives and killed MANY people. We’ve only seen a brief glimpse into into Hook’s background so I think it is too soon to judge exactly what kind of person he is. I can make an assumption that he is so fueled by revenge that he does terrible things but I do think that he has some sort of code. It’s not always what we think is the most correct thing to do, but he does seem to have some compassion i.e. getting back Aurora’s heart. I just think he is a character that still needs to be developed fully. His character keeps us guessing, and I think the writers did that on purpose.

As for Hook and Emma, there was definitely chemistry there but I’m not sure if the writers are just going to tease this relationship or actually follow through with it. Emma found that Hook challenged her and was a partner in crime that intrigues her since it is similar to the relationship she had with Neal. I think the only way more people will accept the relationship with Hook and Emma (if it happens) is if he goes on a path of redemption and proves to Emma (and the audience) that he is worthy of that affection.
