The Real Hook is off living his life with Emma and Alt!Hook is also wanting to live his life with Emma….so like in the end he gets like re-absorbed into him or something?</p>
Pretty much yeah once the mission is complete Rogers can wish for Henry to return him back to where he belongs. If Henry is the one that created him using Author powers or he willingly goes back to the real Killian.
I think if there’s a child Rogers will absolutely want to go back, Emma is his true love of course and also the baby is enough motivation IMO.
Especially once he realizes that’s what he’s missing and that is his sense of loss.

ParticipantEveryone should closely re-read what the writers themselves actually said in the EW interview:
Can you tease anything about the cursed versions of your familiar characters?
KITSIS: When we find them in Seattle, they will be under cursed personas.
HOROWITZ: They’re different than the cursed personas we’ve seen before. While it’s Regina that you’ve been with for six seasons, what she is now in Seattle is something different. What it’s allowing us to do is see these same characters in a new way. Also, Hook never had a cursed persona, so this allows us to do something we haven’t done with Hook before.They’re the same characters but being seen in a new way because Regina and Hook were never cursed before. There isn’t anything that tricky going on here. They aren’t new iterations like Cinderella. They’re the same characters as before with new false identities, just like season one.
This is a very good point. That does make me think you’re right. If things are not as you you’re saying A&E very much misled us.

BlockedI wouldn’t say it’s misleading as them doing their usual dumb half truths and semantics things.

KeymasterHe is still that guy, he’s just not the real one. He’s a copy of the real one but they’re both the same.
I don’t think it can be that cut and dry in the end, though, if your theory is correct. Any show worth its weight that goes down the clone/copy route has to spend some amount of time dealing with the question of how we define “real” and what makes a person real. There has to be some sort of existential crisis for the clone either fighting the inevitable integration or accepting their fate or trying to define their life apart from their original.
What you’re proposing is some Westworld and Orphan Black level of naval gazing and for OUAT to eschew any or all of that is, again, some serious weak sauce.
I also think Slurpeez’s interviews she posted point toward Colin meaning that this isn’t Clone!Hook but it’s Cursed!Hook as Rogers because the amount of cons just for the story are really stacking up.

ParticipantAt the end of the day this story is really about Henry and his family, along with these new/old characters and how they will interact with each other and join together to deal with whatever big baddie there is.
I honestly don’t think much heaviness will go into CS post 7.2. Its basically like they mention curtain call and bittersweet goodbye. CS is probably going to be something in the background, hints and mentions but not really relevant to the story at hand. Hook focus will be on the dilemma of this season and helping Henry.
The CS story focus will more than likely end with 7.2 answering what every questions hopes, dreams, or fears that shippers may have and then continue move forward with this present plot.

ParticipantI think that is right. I think that the focus of the show is now on Henry and Cinderella and Lucy. The mystery of the new big bad and how they got cursed and who is and who isn’t fairytale characters will also be part of it. All the returning characters are just going to be there to give them a little finish and move on from them.
