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.
Aha, I forgot that Emma wasn’t there when they watched the tape! Of course–she was off with Hook trying to talk her into staying in Storybrooke. Thanks for pointing that out; it does poke a bit of a hole in that theory, lol. I’d be disappointed if it weren’t addressed somehow, but then again that wouldn’t be the first time they didn’t follow through on something like that, not by a LONG shot…
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.
Ooh, I like to think that too! We see Killian just going around “working” for Gold and then we find out later that he had that arrangement with Emma all along. I very much doubt that’ll be the case though, since like you said it looks like Hook will have to rush in to tell Emma what the hat really does before she goes through with having Rumple remove her magic. But yeah I definitely did think it was weird that he wasn’t acting anything like he was when dealing with the cursed-lips fiasco.
And @Bo-Peeps, yeah I’m afraid “don’t think about it” might be the only way I can continue to watch the show and enjoy the good parts…this past episode really dampened my enthusiasm for the show; I can only hope that this week’s episode at least partially restores it. I at least think I’ll enjoy seeing some of Belle’s pre-Rumple backstory and maybe seeing her learn about the dagger? Although based on some other spoilers I wonder if that might happen a little later since it looks like she’s using the dagger in front of him so he can just pretend to follow through.
