They apparently tell Neal he can’t go after because they want her to have a happy ending without the crazy but then elect Hook? Charming likes him, sure, but Neal is Henry’s father and that’s something both Snow and Charming understand. So why Hook? Unless something else happens that we haven’t been spoiled on. That’s why I wonder whether Snowing tell Hook the same piece of advice to Hook as they do to Neal. Neal, caring about Emma and Henry’s current blissful ignorance about crazy magic, considers for a moment what Snow and Charming say. Hook, however, doesn’t pause at all and trots off to do what he will. The how and when Hook arrives in NYC while everyone else is trapped in SB is what has me questioning things about true alliances and things like that.
Here is my 2 cents worth on this
I can’t see Snow & Charming not telling Hook the same thing they tell Neal about what they want for Emma & Henry. I could see Neal pausing for a minute but still maybe determined to find a a way back to them but as I said before I believe after he talks with Belle he goes off on his own determined to not only find a way back to Emma & Henry but also Rumple I suspect he will look for something in the Dark Castle first to help him do both, I suspect Neal uses blood magic like Rumple did to find out Henry & Emma’s location in NYC and he tells Snow & David where they are and he wants to go get them to bring them home or else to stay with them it’s possible Hook maybe overhears the conversation but decides he wants to go after Emma himself so I’m wondering if Hook tells Snow & Charming about how Emma was sent to jail thinking that it would deter them from allowing Neal to go after Emma but it backfires because they probably tell Hook the samething they tell Neal. Hook being Hook probably decides he wants to go after Emma anyway.
Remember that bit from TVLine about Neal’s path the other day I think he somehow gets captured by Zelena she offers him a way to go get his family but at a price he turns her down she imprisons him. So she goes to Hook with the same offer. I think Hook has probably dealt with her in the past most likely by his dealings with Pan. I could see Hook reverting because he wants Emma he takes Zelena’s offer. I think it will be an offer & choice that he soon comes to regret and that everything he’s done has put not only Emma in danger but from Zelena but also Henry, her entire family including Neal and eveyone in who was in SB and now back in the EF and those that remained there even after the first curse struck. We know that Hook has had scenes with Zelena before due to the pics, plus the info we have that Hook, Zelena & Rumple share a scene together. I think Hook will come to regret whatever deal he’s made with Zelena and he may discover that if he tries to to break his deal with her or stop her it will cost him his life.
It’s just a crack theory but one I think is plausible
