LOST BOYS ANYONE???

[lilred]

With the snippet of a man with a HOOK, the possibility of Peter Pan storylines seems almost assured (if we can ever say that about this fandom). When I saw this on Tumblr today:

I immediately thought of the Lost Boys from Peter Pan. I remember hearing about this cut scene in May, but really hadn’t looked into it (guess I assumed that August was just recruiting for Cobra or something???) But now: there does seem to be something in Jefferson’s expression for me, some kind of familiarity. Anyone know anything else about this cut scene? Could it possibly be on the DVD when it comes out???

Clearly, since at least two of them we know have grown-up: it would be more of a Lost Man-Child dynamic – not a character by character reconstruction. I’ll add more to this after research.

And if Baelfire is Henry's dad, I now REALLY WANT Henry to join Hook at some point/ get capture. Jared did want some time with a sword next season!

I’m just not sure how August and Jefferson could have known each other for any length of time. They certainly didn’t know each other in their previous lives because Jefferson was preoccupied losing his mind in Wonderland and Pinocchio was a child in FTL. And there hasn’t been anything to indicate that August had ever been to Storybrooke before, or had any contact with the town, has there? So I can’t really see them being friends, or either of them having had contact with Bae at any point, (Jefferson lived centuries after Bae was long gone from FTL, then was trapped in Storybrooke, and August showed no interest in his former life or the people associated with it, until he came to Storybrooke).

What would make sense to me is if August, after coming to Storybrooke and investigating the inhabitants a bit, figured out that Jefferson remembered. So he went to him in the hopes he’d help with getting Emma to believe.

In the ep before Hat Trick, we saw August telling Henry that Emma needs proof instead of going on faith. Then we see Jefferson trying to force some proof onto her. It’d make sense if August had gone to Jefferson before the events of Hat Trick, introduced himself as someone else who remembered, told him they needed to get Emma to believe, and that’s why the Hat Trick events happened. In that case, the cut scene would have been August coming to check how their plans were going, but it’s not like anything is lost from the storyline of the ep by not having that scene in there.

Jefferson’s expression could be explained if August wasn’t aware that he’d gone ahead and kidnapped people without discussing it with him first, so Jefferson was eager to get him to leave before he found out what was going on. But Jefferson was acting pretty upset during most of the ep, so that expression could also just be because of that, and August checking up on him was the last thing he needed at that point in time.

If August had already been to Jefferson, and knew that his plan had failed, that goes to show why he was getting so desperate that he went and impersonated Bae after that.

I think August was just looking for Emma in that deleted scene. There is this whole theory that it was August that drove Mary back to the jail in the morning as well. That would explain how Emma and August are more friendly after this episode. It was all cut though.
