Are you suggesting Will is Hook’s brother?
Sure why not. They are both English and wear leather coats.
Would also give another reason for why the two don’t get along. They’re feuding siblings, just like Regina and Zelena. LOL

ScarlettHook Bros! By George I think we’ve got it! The question is…will we ever see Will again?

December 8, 2015 at 1:40 am #313901TheWatcherParticipantThe whole thing just felt like a bad parody of OUaT. Sleeping curse, really? And how in the world did Regina even know this guy and where to find him?

Doubt it. Will had a sister.

December 8, 2015 at 10:58 am #313920KebParticipantThey also seem to think Liam 2 is a throwaway character, based on those post-mortem interviews. And that is really, really sad, because there is a lot of emotional potential in Hook’s dealing with what he did to his own brother, in their forging a relationship now possibly. If the show’s going to be all about Hook, let’s at least let him deal with his family.
They really dropped the ball with this storyline (at least thus far). Papa Hook’s connection to anything outside of this one flashback was nil, when it could have provided gaspy moments or at least fulfilling ones by connecting it to Ursula, Ariel, Davey Jones, Black Beard, Belle (who, if you recall, was the lure that got Hook in touch with Regina to start with)…a million things. But no. It’s completely random and disconnected from everything. And the brother is irrelevant except for being a catalyst for Hook’s murder.
It’s possible for them to fix this in the future somehow; Papa Jones was lying, perhaps, or Liam 2 becomes an important thread in his own right, but the way they dismissed Liam 2 in the one interview makes me think they don’t really see that as a possibility. And they already have so many more established dropped threads to pick up that there’s not really room for it in the current sphere of things.
That’s the other issue with this backstory. Because it was so disconnected and didn’t provide any real characterization for Hook we didn’t already have (we know he’s a murderer, we knew his father abandoned him and Liam at sea), it was a waste of an opportunity to close out Camelot properly or link Hook to Merida or SOMETHING that would actually fit in with the shape of 5A’s arc. It honestly feels like once they revealed that Hook was the DO, 5A’s arc just crumbled–nothing else really mattered except the CS angst (and the trumped up OOC Rumbelle angst…let’s not go there here). It’s a bigger ball drop than the hyped Queens of Darkness, because at least their stories got closure before they vanished–Cruella died, Ursula reunited with daddy, and Maleficent reunited with her daughter. But everyone from Camelot and Dun Broch was just left floating in forgotten character land, their fates still up in the air in the woods of Storybrooke.

December 8, 2015 at 3:03 pm #313940The Swan PrincessParticipantI have this theory that Liam 2 is actually Robin Hood!!
They look similar, and Robin isn’t related to anyone in the core cast. And Robin Hood can very easily be a fake name that he started to use in his stealing days, you know, because he was robbin’ and wearing a hood… Or something.
The timeline doesn’t really make sense, but when has that stopped the writer before?
You know what I can't continue with the dead people brought back to life list I'm out of space in the signature and now we have an underworld arc this is to much I quit why do you bring so many people back to life OUAT WHHHYYYY
