I really hope they don’t bring Neal back.
Me too–I really don’t like that he died without seeing more interaction with Hook and Rumple (it will always bug me that he never confronted his father about having murdered his mother), but it would be very strange to bring him back now. And they did say that whoever died in 3B was actually going to die and stay dead.
Whereas Killian didn’t have to change to have Milah’s love, they were pirates together and I think Hook would realise that Milah was his first love and not his true love.
That’s something I’ve wondered about…we had Rumple say several times in “The Crocodile” that he could see that they were True Love, and while I wouldn’t take his opinion on love as gospel, especially at that point way before Belle, we did see that each of them was willing to die to protect the other, and that seems like pretty true love to me. *Shrug* I guess it comes down to whether someone can have more than one TL in a lifetime–although really, Hook has had like four lifetimes so I could believe that he had two TLs 300 years apart, haha. Obviously I think he and Emma are TL though regardless, and I’m really hoping we see proof of that by the end of 4A. *fingers crossed*
I’m concerned about what they’re going to do with Marion. Robin has pretty much said he loves Regina. And surely he can’t stay in a loveless marriage, that’s not fair on either on them. The easily solution is to have Marion killed, but that’s just a cop out. Unless there is an awesome twist somewhere, I think they’ve painted themselves into a corner.
An easy solution would’ve been not to have Regina been the one to murder Marion originally. Now OQ just has a bad taste. I’m rooting for Marian to live and be happy but season 4 has made Robin seem like a bit of a douchebag.
I agree with both of you–I don’t see a way to have OQ end up together without Robin seeming like a jerk for ending up with the woman who killed/tried to kill his wife and Roland’s mother. Personally I’d like to see Marian end up with someone who really loves her for the awesome, principled, strong woman she is. I just really hope they don’t have her suddenly forgive Regina–if someone had imprisoned me, tortured me, and announced that she was looking forward to seeing my head on a spike, I don’t think I’d get over it too quickly. But everyone else seems to have conveniently forgotten Regina’s crimes, so I’m not gonna hold my breath.
