I have a sinking feeling that Emma Swan is actually going to die this time (and stay dead). Yes, I know it doesn’t make a lick of sense given that Emma should have died in the season 6 finale when she sacrificed herself as a savior, but the writers might have been hoping that Jennifer Morrison would change her mind at the last moment.
“We get to find out what has happened with Emma and Hook [Colin O’Donoghue] since our happy ending we showed last year,” executive producer Adam Horowitz tells EW. “We will be getting closure on her story in what we feel is a satisfying way.”
“Getting closure on her story” sounds definitively that this is the end of Emma’s story (i.e. she’s firmly not coming back). Adam is not mincing his words. Unless this is a major fake out (a la Jon Snow on GoT), then I think it’s really the end of the line for her. I don’t think Emma would be resurrected either since Jennifer Morrison firmly let it be known in the summer that she wouldn’t appear as Emma Swan after 7×2. The way JMo spoke on social media really reminded me of the way that MRJ spoke when he came back to film a final scene with Jennifer in the bug for the 100th episode. He said it was a nice “bookend” to Neal’s story (i.e. closure for his fans).
“We’re moving forward past the end of season 6, seeing what happened with Emma and Hook, and how it relates to the events in Hyperion Heights. It’s an emotional curtain call,” said Edward Kitsis.
Eddy said this episode would be an “emotional curtain call.” If that doesn’t say end of the road for Emma and her relationship with Hook, then I don’t know what else does.
