Also there is the fact that Cora gave him all this magic protection against what they would have to face at the beanstalk. She gave it to him. The stuff for her use, too. I mean…why?
When he produced that second magical cuff and was all, “Well, Cora was gonna come with me, but I guess one of you guys can wear this now,” I called shenanigans! As if Cora was ever gonna hitch up her skirts and scramble up a beanstalk. 😆
Up until Emma chained Hook up, everything had gone according to Cora’s plan. Hook needs more than just the compass to get to SB, he also needs the sparkly dirt, and Cora still has that. So his easiest option would have been to grab the compass and run back to Cora. If he’d stuck with the others, they’d have had to steal the sparkly dirt somehow, and that’s far more complicated for him. I do think that if circumstances changed, a new travel option came up, and the others could get to SB without Cora’s sparkly dirt, Hook would stick with them, but I think that as things currently stand, he needs Cora just as much as she needs him, and it’s no skin off his nose if Emma & Snow don’t get home.
