HOWEVER if the curse works more like once it gets activated it turns into a big smoke ball that runs all across the land swallowing up everyone and then passes on, then id understand how Hook could outrun it (he could have headed in a direction the curse ball hadn’t consumed yet then when the curse got there, he could have turned and went to a place it had already ravaged). Idk >> blahg
That’s an interesting thought, about kind of circling around behind it after it had already been somewhere. I never got the impression that it worked that way, but who knows? I always pictured it as a big cloud that originated from wherever the curse was cast and then spread out in all directions however far it goes, eventually maybe kind of dissipating at the edges where it stops. Obviously I don’t know for sure though.
The other thing about the curse that kinda gets to me is that I thought it was a one-time-only thing; I didn’t know it could be reused so many times to go back and forth from “our” world…that just makes it not as big a deal, IMO. I just hope that it doesn’t pop up again in season four!
