ETA again, I can only find photos of the unicorns. Is it possible we’ve never seen photos of the top before? Looking at photos of that nursery, I am CRACKING UP at all of the dreamcatcher imagery. The architecture is all circles with webby lines. Mostly amused I’d never noticed it before.
Yeah I just went to look at some screencaps of the Pilot and of Charming in Gold’s shop in the Shepherd, and couldn’t see a shot of the top, so this may be the first time we’ve seen it. I too love the dreamcatcher-y imagery in the nursery!
I noticed the lack of TLK as well and it bothered me so much. The only reason I could think of why they omitted it, was that they are actually going ahead with the CS relationship. I honestly hope that isn’t the case though. It would feel too much like, oh well now that Neal’s gone, let’s get together without anything standing in our way. I realize I’m not giving the writers (and Hook and Emma) a lot of credit here. It’s just that I used to trust the writers, but I’m not so sure I should anymore.
It would be incredibly lazy writing to just kill one guy off so they can stick the girl with the other guy instead. I know there’s been lazy writing already, but that would seriously take the cake. Even if they don’t intend to show Emma and Hook in a relationship, they may have avoided the SF TLK because they want to keep how Emma feels ambiguous for a while longer, (though frankly I think it’s pretty damn obvious how she feels, but anyway), keep stringing CSers along for a while longer. If she’d kissed Neal, that would have been the end of any and all ambiguity right then and there.
