ParticipantThe most compelling reason why a death in 3×16 would almost certainly not be Neal’s is because Henry still does not have his memories back by then. Remember the leaked pics from 3×16 of Hook with Henry. He had on a prothetic hand, rather than his hook, meaning Killian is still concealing his fairytale persona from Henry. No way would Neal meet his true end while Henry has no memory of him and thinks his dad abandoned him. Not going to happen. Forget shipping for a moment. Neal getting back to Henry is a vital part of the story and parallels Rumple’s journey back to Neal. I’m not saying Neal would in fact make the same dire decision to unleash a dark curse. I only mean that there is no way they would really kill off Neal’s character without any resolution whatsoever with regards to his son. I could imagine a scenario in which the funeral in 3×16 is for Neal, because he’s presumed dead or his death is faked, but from a purely narrative perspective, Neal cannot die by that point in the story.

Keymaster^YES
They aren’t about to cut off Henry’s character development at the knees. Shopping absolutely aside, for Henry to loose his father when he doesn’t even have his memories makes no sense.

I read that when I was at lunch and it’s a fantastic essay. Anyone who doesn’t understand who Neal is as a character REALLY needs to read it! 😀
Is the board fixed yet?! It’s driving me crazy today, LOL 😉

KeymasterHappy thought of the day #2
“You’ll see them again, Emma and Henry…”
Listen to step mum, Neal darling.

ParticipantMade me laugh out loud:
Snow: Neal, it’s impossible. Regina was very clear about the price of our return.
Neal:Regina? Seriously? We’re just going to take her word for it? The woman who didn’t even realize the curse could be recast?
Snow:It was a one way trip, you know that.
Neal:Do we? Do we really? Every time someone says that all of a sudden a magic bean or a realm traveling mermaid or a magic boat pops out of nowhere. That’s literally how we spent all of last year.
Charming:Even if we found them they wouldn’t remember us.
Neal:So? You’re her parents. True love kiss her memories back. Or have the blue fairy whip up another memory potion. This happens on, like, a regular basis at this point. There’s protocol for this. And since when do you do recognize the word impossible anyway?
Charming:Just let them be Neal.
Neal:Screw this. Someone find me Belle. I can’t–I just can’t."That’s how you know you’ve really got a home. When you leave it, there’s this feeling that you can’t shake. You just miss it." Neal Cassidy
