Anyone else wondering if Cora is really dead dead?

I mean, yes we saw a heart being shoved into her and she fell to the floor. BUT… the way Snow just found her heart, it was too easy. And for Cora to put HER heart in with the other poor suckers whose heart she has taken… She feels she is miles high above them. Not her style to then put her heart among them. The wanting other people to bow down to her is very important to her, putting your heart among them would be doing the opposite.
We saw that Daniel could still “live” with somebody elses heart inside him, though it was like the heart possessed him, making him go crazy. What if it was somebody elses heart that Regina shoved in her mother. The poison together with the wound would knock her out, which might make her appear to look dead, at least for a while.
Let’s not forget, coming back from death is Cora’s hobby

Well, someone asked on Twitter if it was going to be a real death, and they said yes. I think she’s gone.

Does that mean that things won’t transpire? Frankenstein’s still around…and there are other worlds yet to explore.

Still, the wound was transferred, and Snow used Cora’s name, which means it had to be the right heart. The box was sealed with a bit of straw. And she had to probably fairly quickly shove all the things she wanted onto the Jolly Roger when she set off, so putting the heart there makes some sense.

I’m inclined to believe it simply for the fact that the candle worked. The name of the person had to be said over their heart and then the heart had to be inside the body (if it wasn’t already). The fact that Snow said the name “Cora” over the heart and that when a heart was put back inside Cora it instantly healed Rumple I would have to believe that it was in fact her heart and that she is now dead.

I can see where you’re coming from but the last time Cora was “dead” she simply didn’t have her heart inside her so it was easy for her to trick Regina with Hook’s help.

I really do think she’s gone this time and had a nice moment with her daughter and Rumple in the end. The fact that she did seem to have that moment of clarity also seems to point to it definitely being her heart, simply because anybody else that has been brought back with the wrong heart hasn’t come back to their normal selves. Aurora & Cora seem to be themselves whereas Daniel came back “wrong.”

I would have loved it if Cora pulled a Voldemort. And the writers only had Rumple and Hook knowing the truth about her heart. Like they could have destroyed her body, but as long as her heart lives, she will never die, and she comes back somehow with a new body…Wishful thinking 😥
