Reply To: First Day of Filming

I agree that the group of 6 will likely divide into 2 teams of 3:

Group 1: Hook – Emma – Regina

Group 2: David – Snow- Rumple

My main reason for thinking so is that spoiler that Lana, Jennifer, and Colin were filming together without the other three. My other reason for thinking so is there is power in numbers. 3 is greater than 2. Finally, I agree with everyone who said Hook and Rumple wouldn’t be on the same team, since they can barely tolerate once another, let alone rely on one another. Also, the Charmings have too much bad history with Regina.

As for Group 1, I think that the writers could be building up a “love triangle” but not necessarily the one most fans are hoping for. I happen to think that while Hook fancies Emma and she is attracted to him, the real love connection will build between Regina and Hook. The reason I think so is that Adam has heavily hinted that Regina will find her new love interest, and that her love possibly is already with her. Who else on the ship is the likeliest candidate? Well, Charming is a happily married man and Rumple’s true love, Belle, is safe and well. We know SQ isn’t going to happen (confirmed by Eddy), so the only eligible bachelor is Killian Jones.

Also, I don’t think Charming and Snow would split up. They’re going to stay together since they’ve been split up too much already over the last 2 seasons. It’s time for them to stand as a united team. However, I think’s it’s highly probably that Rumple would ditch them to go off on his own quest for revenge against PP and GOAT. Going off of what both Robert and Eddy said at CC about Mr. Gold’s quest:

Eddy Kitsis: “Rumple is prepared to die to save Henry, he is on a suicide mission, we will be seeing a whole new Mr. Gold.”

Rober Calyle: “Mr. Gold will be very dark and anyone that gets in his way of saving Henry better watch out.”
