Because they’re true love. And love is strength. So obviously Gideon wants Emma’s true love out of the way, hence why Hook had to go. Cause it’s all about damaging and weakening Emma’s mental strength.
Why not….ya know…Her son?
Although Gideon again shows that he is not truly evil because all he really did is send Hook on a journey he could of easily killed him and didn’t.
Hook is no good to Gideon dead. Hostages are useful, martyrs are dangerous. Don’t take away everything your enemy has to lose; leave something by which she can be manipulated. At the very least, Emma will now be distracted and won’t be able to focus on fighting Gideon. Gideon might also need Hook for a later stage of the plan.
Gaultheria…. that’s very well thought out…. I have to ask, are you secretly a super villain? Lol
That is not what was said though. I think Gideon said something like you can’t be here if i am going to do what i plan to do, like Hook needs to be out of the way. I don’t think he is just trying to cause Emma to be distracted or holding Hook a hostage considering he is sending him to whatever realm Aladdin and Jasmine are in. It may be that nothing comes off it, but Emma being annoying about it for an episode, but that would be inconsistent with the dialogue.
I think something will come of it but something stupid. Nothing that will s An over more than one episode. Gideon has a curse, but Emma finds Hook in time to stop it. Like I said, I feel like this is all just an excuse to have CS kiss for their fandom.
