Part of me thinks, i just shouldn’t watch this episode. Since the new Hook is a new character and has to relevance to the past, then this episode has no point to the current plot. It is pretty much filler at this point. I will watch it though, just to get through it though.
If it isn’t even Hook, then why in the world did they keep Colin? It makes a lot more sense to me to keep Rebecca Mader. She is a better actor and her character was unfinished and she is related to Regina and they could just give her a different personality. Her character had a lot more depth to build on whereas Hook has nothing.
