She does need help, though why specifically I have yet to figure out. When we last saw her, she was in the field looking at the beans, so she has no issue getting to the beans. She was even holding one, still attached to the stalk, if I remember correctly. So why she needs Hook remains a mystery to me.

I’m thinking there are a few different possibilities:
1) As Regina somewhat creepily told Henry, she doesn’t have anyone else to talk to ever since Cora died. She’s lonely. She wants “companionship” and she favors Captain Hook.
2) Regina is onto Captain Hook and she is only pretending to ally with him to suss out what GOAT’s plans are.
3) She needs a scape-goat. Perhaps triggering the “fail-safe” requires some dirty work, but perhaps she doesn’t want to get her own hands dirty.

I think the beans Regina has are not ready to be harvested yet and probably won’t work. The BeanGrowers must have taken greater precautions once they realized she found the crop. So she needs Hook to find a way around that.

Good theories above ^

Question: Maleficent, didn’t Regina say that was her only friend too ❓

Also, Emma had to have killed Maleficent with the sword how would the dragon survive with a sword through it’s chest. ❓

How would anyone know only Henry does right now to my knowledge no else except maybe Hook, Regina can make the beans grow her mother brought stuff from Wonderland.

1) Maybe. Though, I think it’s a bit early in the show to try and set up EvilHook because I do believe they’re going to CaptainSwan before anything else. I also think Regina is so focused on getting Henry back that the idea of having a companion who isn’t Henry hasn’t crossed her mind.
2) A greater possibility.
3) But if everyone dies in the fail-safe, there is no one to blame her.

Maybe, but Regina has so much magic that she could work around the pesky dwarves, giant, and “two idiots”. The BF’s spell doesn’t do anything except keep it invisible. What greater precaution could they take? Guards? Again, Regina could easily get around them with magic.

Yes, but then she brought her through in dragon for apparently for delight and punishment. (still wanna know if Maleficent had her FTL memories…)

In the words of Adam and Eddy: “I didn’t see a body, did you?” Dragons are supposed to be near unto impossible to kill. Throwing the sword through the heart was a nice nod to the Sleeping Beauty story, but I’d wager it didn’t kill her.

Eh, I’m warming up to the idea of PirateQueen, but that’s cuz I think CaptainSwan isn’t going to sail for long. I’m just not convinced yet that Regina and Hook could accomplish anything but beautiful evilness together.

Give them a chance, they’ve not even set sail yet 😥 We don’t know what the writers have planned.

You know I am surprised that Regina hasn’t taken Hook’s heart like she does with other people I wonder why? ❓

Because Regina had that with Graham, and it never fulfilled her. If she does hold any hope for something genuine with Killian in the future, she’d be crazy to steal his heart. Plus, with Hook, he hasn’t really presented himself as a threat to her yet. Sadly, I think that could change if GOAT use Hook to capture Regina.

I agree. I think Regina sees Hook as an ally because right now they are so single minded. Twisted, yes, but single minded. All Hook wants is to kill Rumple and all Regina wants is Henry (if she can kill the two idiots while she’s at it, then great). I just wonder who is going to double cross whom.
Hook is working with GOAT and Regina.
Regina is working with Hook and has suspicions of Greg.
Does Regina double cross Hook and that leads him to seriously working with GOAT against her?
Or does Hook double cross Regina and hand her over to GOAT?

Regina has been shown to be possessive. Even though Hook may be interested in Emma, that isn’t going to stop Regina from trying to get her claws in. She may see it as payback for Graham. Emma “stole” Graham from Regina so now Regina is going to steal Hook from Emma. At the moment, Regina may not see a use for Hook beyond what she wants, but the moment Emma shows an interest in him, Regina is going to be all over him like a rash.

Regina will probably use the Rumple angle to get into Hook’s good graces. Both of them have reason to want revenge on Rumple. Regina will probably suggest an alliance and put it to Hook as a “you scratch my back and I’ll scratch yours”.

All magic comes with a price!
