Magic truly comes alive for Once Upon a Time’s 100th episode. Smoke machines blanket an entire icy warehouse, forcing cast and crew alike to done gas masks. Dry-ice bubbles rise from the depths of an 80-foot-long pool, over which a wooden barge skims the dark surface, guided only by dim lanterns. It’s eerily quiet. That is, until someone starts synergistically singing “It’s a Small World.”
The crew has jumped aboard the ferryman’s boat, which will eventually take heroes and villains alike to the mouth of the Underworld. “You must be this tall to ride this ride,” jokes one crewman, who will spend the day retracting the ship in order to send it on the brief but slow journey into depths of Hell. Unable to see five feet in front of them, the weapons-clad cast boards the ship, ready to stuff their respirators away once cameras start rolling. Emma (Jennifer Morrison) is back in her hero gear, the requisite red leather jacket cutting through the haze, as she lies prone in the boat, waking up with a start upon their arrival.

[adrotate group="5"]For the time being, Emma and the gang are solely focused on finding Hook (Colin O’Donoghue), who sacrificed himself in the fall finale to rid the world of the Darkness only to have Rumplestiltskin (Robert Carlyle) once again become the Dark One. “There’s a deep resentment, obviously, because [Gold] took away what Hook’s sacrifice was meant to mean,” Morrison says. “It’s doubled her fury toward him, in a sense that he’s now betrayed them all, betrayed Killian. It’s the ultimate betrayal of this family, basically. There is a deep, deep fury there.” Still, “She needs to get to Hook,” Morrison adds. “She understands the power of the Dark One. She’s going to use him to get what she wants, because she knows how to use that power now.”
I dislike how they’ve made Emma all about Hook now. She knows that there has been century long animosity between Rumple and Hook. I don’t see how what Rumple did is a betrayal of “the family”. The only reason everyone is in the underworld now is because EMMA decided to retrieve Hook.
It annoys me how the characters treat Hook as the greatest thing since sliced bread yet we are shown just how nasty and manipulative he can be on screen. What they’re telling us does not match with what they are showing us.
All magic comes with a price!
Keeper of FelixHaving read the interview, I get the sense that Lana might be dropping a hint.
“That’s what he was hired to do, and he’s just so good at it,” Parrilla concurs. “But we’re also really pissed at [Gold], because he set Hook up. It’s classic Gold, classic Rumple to pull an act like this. But we need him. We need him to navigate us through the Underworld. Him being the Dark One is almost kind of a good thing for us, because he is on our team. Even though he’s always pulling these tricks and schemes, he is on our team. Henry’s his grandson. There’s that connection. I don’t think he would do anything to hurt Henry at this point, but I think we’re all pissed at him.”
The way Lana worded it, it made me think that Rumple might be the one to harness his ultra dark powers for good, possibly help Regina beat Hades, and spring most of them out of UW.
