Nothing will come from Rumple’s alteration of the security tape showing Zelena’s death. The people who saw it (Emma wasn’t there) all agreed that Zelena offed herself, there’s no reason to suspect Rumple as Belle supposedly had the dagger. It won’t come up again. If anyone would call Rumple out on it, it might be Belle, not Emma.
I have a theory that Hook has already told Emma off-screen about his run-in with Rumple. Based on the fact that Hook is terrible at keeping things from her. Even though her superpower may not be 100%, she pretty much always sees through Hook’s lies. The only time she didn’t was at the end of The Jolly Roger, but then I don’t think he full on lied to her, there was a lot of half-truths and mixed up stories going on there, so for her to detect a straight out lie would be difficult. Anyway, I digress. Compared to the last time Hook kept important information from her, he was sullen and moody for days. Emma noticed at least twice his change in mood. But during the last episode, he was all jovial and flirty, like there was nothing weighing him down. Also compare his mood when he first got to the station after the Rumple magic-sucking hat thing, he was quiet and upset, also pretty wary of Will who could say who punched him at anytime. The first visit to the sheriff station in the last ep Hook didn’t even care that Will was there and only engaged when Will said the thing about ‘getting in the with son’. Even then it wasn’t a worried Hook that spoke to Will, it was an annoyed Hook and annoyed for good reason, cos we obviously know Hook likes Henry (and wants to do good by him for Bae).
However with a couple spoilers I’ve read, all that could be redundant esp in regards to Rumple offering to get rid of Emma’s magic and Hook trying to stop that, that would assume Emma doesn’t know about the hat Hook perhaps was just happy b/c he’s with Emma now. I don’t know. I like to think he told her and they’re going to keep an eye on Rumple under the pretense of Hook working for him.
If one is to engage with the primordial forces of darkness, one must expect a little social awkwardness
