Anonymous: In response to that last message, I do get why people are mad about how they wrote Hook’s lost year. We thought he’d be a knight in armor. We thought he’d heroically help Ariel. We thought he’d selflessly give up the Jolly to Blackbeard for Emma. Alas, he did none of these things. I’m not saying he’s evil. I still love him and feel his pain. But I do get why people felt let down.
Yes, but… as nice as it would be to see those things (and might I note, he doesn’t have the Jolly, he clearly made a choice to leave it behind at some point and there’s more to that story to come) remember, those were our EXPECTATIONS. Somewhat rose-colored as well. Killian Jones/Captain Hook is a dark character. And I also think it might have been slightly ooc for him to just be happy to go on being a hero and pretending that his life was just fine without Emma. He’s NOT okay without her. He’s NOT going to fill the void with being the person he used to be, and the point of the flashbacks was to see how miserably he failed and how much the guilt is eating at him. He made the wrong choices and he’s working his (edited from another name for donkeys to) ‘backside’ off now trying to fix them, but it’s made him lose everything. And if he was running around being a hero in the lost year, he wouldn’t be so adamant about keeping it from Emma. He doesn’t want her to know what he did because he’s so ashamed of it (as he admitted to fake Ariel). There HAS to be a moment where she finds that out and tells him that she doesn’t care. As she did tonight, but once she knows. For real.
Got to admit, I wasnt disappointed with anything in this ep, so agree with her/his reply.
I have also have to admit, I loved thepart when Zelena threatened Henry & Killy got all ‘dont you even consider it bitc…… wench’ – LOVING how protective he is of Henry & that WW (typical how it’s always the bad guys who point these things out, so those wearing blinkers watching it, cant mistake it) pointed out how “fond” of Henry, Killy had become. The poor guy is stuck between a rock & a hard place- protect Emma & her powers, so the WW cant harm her/ everyone else, or protect her family & most importantly Henry from being harmed *sobs* Poor, poor Killy! (& the stupid promo didnt really show anything interesting, so dont even have that to analyse to death while we wait for next week lol)
