I really do not think Emma and Hook are ever going to trust each other enough to have any sort of relationship.

I think they have too much chemistry not to at least try. I think Emma can help Hook move past Milah and his revenge and that Hook can help Emma learn to forgive and trust again.

Also, I know this may not matter a whole lot, but Adam and Eddy will never hear the end of it if they don’t give CaptainSwan at least a few episodes.

The writers send out a lot of mixed signals on Hook, Emma and Neal’s romantic futures. The show itself might be foreshadowing something, but it could be anything. They haven’t made anything clear yet, except that Tamara does not have true love for Neal.

Let’s assume for the moment, that what Neal feels for Tamara is not the result of magic or scientific manipulation. How is Neal going to react when he finds out about Tamara? Relieved that he can now be honest about still loving Emma, or is he going to feel like Emma in Manhattan when she was yelling about being played, hurt and heartbroken? If you assume some kind of manipulation, then he’d probably be relieved and happy to be free of the relationship. What state do the writers want Neal to be in? I think right now, they want him confused. When the Tamara arc plays out, I’m not sure where they want him to be. I don’t think they are going to put Emma with anyone this season in a definite Snow and Charming or even a Belle/Rumple type relationship that’s clearly marked as such for even the most casual viewer to get. So they may not ever reveal why Neal ended up with Tamara beyond what they have already shown, but we can guess from how he eventually ends up reacting when he finds out about her deception. Assuming he isn’t dead as a result of it! If the writers want an emotional gut punch, that would do it for me.
