Ahhhh. She’s adorable!!!!
you could be right. Hook and Belle seem *very* shocked to see Neal bursting through the door. It’s going to be interesting to see how Hook reacts. I’m predicting that he knows where Neal is all along but kept it from Emma at Neal’s request.

I agree that Hook probably has known all along where Neal is, but I have my misgivings about whether Neal requested Hook not tell Emma. I think it could be the case that Hook hans’t been forthcoming for his own, selfish reasons. I’d be genuinely surprised if Neal and Hook were working together (I’ve given up hope for Captain-Fire). I think Hook still sees Neal as a rival more than a friend whom he wants to help reunite with Emma. Now, it could be the case that Hook is lying to keep Neal’s secret, but I sort of doubt it. I think Hook is ashamed of something he may have done, like playing into a trap set by Zelena, to get back to Emma. I don’t believe his story about the bird or his mission to “save” Emma. Neither does Emma buy it. She said she didn’t.

LOL! No kidding. 😉
BTW-I love that manip too RG and it’s now gone viral on Tumlbr and Twitter with everyone wanting to know who made the awesomeness! I feel kind of special that I know who made it but @Lauren you might have to go out there and claim it before someone else tries to take it from you! Send it to JMo and MRJ and anyone else at the show while you’re out there claiming it!! 😉

ParticipantHELLO GIANT PARALLEL
X
Yup! Both Charming and Rumple probably have the same fear at their core: that they failed their children, Emma and Neal, respectively. Their actions had long-lasting consequences on their children. Both Emma and Neal have severe abandonment issues as a result of traveling through a portal to A Land Without Magic. Emma was too young to remember actually being put in the enchanted wardrobe, but she has always felt like an orphan, a lost girl without a home. At 14, Baelfire was old enough to remember his father letting go of his hand, and he has had recurring nightmare ever since. He’s a lost boy who had to live on his own in a cave in Neverland for over a century because of his father.
No wonder both Emma and Neal have had such a hard time letting down their guards. When Neal let Emma go so that she could break the first curse, it ate away at him, and he tried to lose himself. He did eventually get his act together, got a real job and a place in NYC. He even found himself a fiancée, (but who turned out to be evil). He tried to move past his guilt, his feelings of unworthiness of Emma’s forgiveness, and so he settled for the love Tamara seemed to be giving him. Likewise, Emma managed to get her life in order, too, after she got out of jail. Her abandonment issues were strong as ever, yet she still spent two years in Tallahassee after she got out of the system. Interestingly enough her cursed memories told Emma that she ended up in NYC, too, because of a fire. You could say that a fire was lit under her to find a home in Neal’s hometown. I’m sure that is a hidden clue that Emma’s idea of home has been and always will be wherever Neal’s home is.

Participant[quote=255430]I think Neal escaped Zelena’s curse, which is why he was absent from the story so far. He may have found a way to travel between realms though, which is why in the promo for 3×15, Belle and Hook seem astonished when Neal comes bursting through the door of Mr. Gold’s shop. Neal appears from the literal and figurative fog, suggesting he’s just arrived in SB by some sort of magical transportation. What if Neal has found a new way to travel between realms? Perhaps he comes to SB in search of his father, only to learn his dad has gone missing. Neal tries to get to his dad first only to be beaten by the Wicked Witch, who still has the dark one’s dagger. Neal then realizes the only way to beat Zelena is to call in backup help, so he travels to Oz in search of Glinda. That could be why he seems “lost” from so many episodes, but like the subordinate male protagonist who disappears before the second reel, he’ll return to save the day in the end. [/quote]
Slurpeez that may be possible and that certainly could explain things
