Here’s a follow up meta on the foreshadowing CS wedding from after this latest episode (I will read it after I call the cats in lol)

I’m pretty much convinced it’ll be a CS TLK that’ll break the curse. Emma is the savior, Hook got her back to save them all, she has to be the one to break the curse and they’ve been paralleling Season 1 so far with Hook in place of Henry. I’d be very surprised if anything other than a CS TLK ends up breaking the curse.

I’m not entirely on board the CS wedding bandwagon yet. Rumbelle look like the most likely candidate to me, but I’d be more than ecstatic to be proved wrong. Thing is, a CS TLK AND and CS wedding will ensure I don’t survive this season!
I can’t figure out how to use the spoiler codes.. ended up deleting the second half of my post :(! Can someone help me out?

Emma’s super power doesnt work well when her emotions are involved (at least that is what A&E have said), so I guess that would explain it.

@ surayya But she knows each time Killian’s lying or telling the truth. Does that mean she’s not emotionally invested? :((. I could understand that when she didn’t remember him but in 314 she knows he’s lying about his adventures on his ship. Is that only because of the special connection they share?

I think Emma can just read Killian because of their connection

I really liked the points this new/follow up meta brings to light-

I was going to add those points here as snip its, but there’s to many & i’ll end up posting the lot lol- so here is a breakdown of the highlights-

• Attention to Emma’s theme playing- how it ties into her parents theme & is changed depending on how she feels.
• Possible timeline for 3B being only a matter of a few weeks, meaning something drastic will need to happen for Emma to go from where she is now to walking down the aisle.
• Regina now knowing how ‘future’ step daddy/s could affect Henry.
• Everyone important knows Emma considered marrying a fly monkey man, aside from Snow- Snow doesnt let stuff like that ‘go’, so there’s likely to be a ‘scene’ about it soon.
• How Hook outlined Emma’s fears, but she miss understood.
• Emma’s fears over what Killian may or may not have done in their year apart- I will included this exscript as it made me lol  
  

  The other interesting thing is how Emma jumps to the adventure conclusion, almost like she doesn’t want to hear that he may have been laying drunk on the deck of ship for 365 days sobbing his eyes out and singing “All By Myself.” Sarcasm aside, it’s almost like she instantly put defenses up so she didn’t’ have to hear that he was heartbroken. But despite her wall, she did actually admit that he saved her.”

• How Emma calling Killian out on the “lie” is important, along with Killian’s being blunt for the last few eps, then suddenly closing up about something is very interesting & how that answer could have affected Emma.
• More about Chamring coming to terms with CS happening.
• About how Hook could be the tinman in this story.

@polythenepam  spoiler codes =

type:

1- [ spoiler] (no spaces between brackets & spoiler)

2- On the same line as the 1st spoiler code box [ spoiler ], write what you want, but DONT PRESS ENTER/Start a new paragraph at any point, as the spoiler code wont be complete, so wont work (you have to spoiler code every paragraph individually)

3- [/ spoiler] (again no spaces between brackets & /spoiler)

& @Killian Jones is correct (I think) that Emma & Killian have some sort of special connection- which we’ve been told about since the beanstalk & that A&E as well as the actors have confirmed a number of times. It’s the only thing that makes sense, otherwise it would be odd indeed that Killian was the only one her super power worked, on emotional or not 😉

Thanks @surayya! Just edited my last post with the code in place and it worked 🙂

I didnt know how on earth they’d work a sleeping curse in since its ‘EQ/Regina’s’ thing. But now the WW has Regina’s cursed hair pin, it seems logical that someone is going to take a sleeping curse & require kissing awake- so why not Killian & Emma … Although I would like to see Regina’s reaction to having TLK work for her & Robin (however she already has the lion tattoo to go off of, so I’m back to CS getting TLK via sleeping curse- esp since it would parallel Snowing very nicely indeed)

Idk, I have a feeling TLK isn’t gonna work if you’re cursed. In Season 1 Snowing kissed repeatedly in Storybrooke but they were cursed. It needed Emma to kiss Henry (both of whom weren’t cursed) to break the first curse. And who are the only ones who’re not cursed and have their memories intact right now? ;).

Oh, we are talking about a simple sleeping curse here (at least I am lol), Not memory wipes. Correct that TLK wont break memory wipes, which is why Snowing’s EF TLK didnt work, nor Rumbelle’s SB TLK nor CS TLK in NY.

Emma had to kiss her true love to break the 1st storybrooke curse (which was Henry) as a condition of breaking the 1st curse, so it didnt matter how many other TL’s kissed, the curse was only set to break when Emma performed it- remember it was the specific fail safe Rumple worked into the curse- Emma performing TLK being 1 of 2ways to break it? (Emma was VERY walled off in S1, so she had to admit to herself/know herself that she was really Snowing’s daughter & truly loved (not just cared about, but loved above all others) Henry in order for TLK to work).

However Henry still also had to be kissed by his TL in order to wake up/break the sleeping curse he was under- so it was a 2birds, 1 stone situation there- 2 curses, 1 kiss kinda thing 😉

So if we follow the same pattern, Emma (who knows who she is) kissing Killian (who knows who he is) or vice versa, it will have the same result for a sleeping curse ie. rainbow whoosh & the other awakens 😉 As to whether or not it will break the ‘actual’ transportation/ memory wipe SB 2.0 curse … that’ll only happen if Rumple’s old back up plan for the 1st curse is still in play.

@polythenepam I’m still not 100% convinced on the CS wedding either yet, but I do enjoy seeing all the pro posts for it- like you I’m happy to be convinced 😉
