Methinks she was trying to, in a not so honest, *projection* way, blame Hook for not finding her sooner, for not saving her sooner, so she could have avoided the whole embarrassing Walsh episode. Blame him for her getting so comfortable in her new faked life. So when he stood his ground and passed it right back at her without getting as angry as he had a right to be(yessss) she tried to go back to the old *wound him first* routine. *You like seeing me have my heart broken?* (she didn’t seem so heart broken when she was back at her apartment after running out on the proposal.)
I LOVE IT!! I think Emma does a lot of reshaping events in her head – “I loved Walsh so yeah I was considering it”…of course, I ended up believing the crazy pirate, and had no intention of telling Walsh the truth and asking him to follow when he showed up that night because she didn’t want him getting involved…and like you said, didn’t seem all that upset when she got back to the apt after the proposal. In fact, Henry almost had to encourage her to even entertain the idea. I think one of the best things about them is that they know and understand each other’s crap…and they’re willing to put up with it – to an extent. They’re also not afraid to get up in each other’s face. Sure, they both regress a little when stressed – that’s normal, to go back to your comfort zone. But they’re pulling themselves, and each other, out of it. Which fits in with your ideas…Emma will let herself feel upset by the year she ‘lost,’ if you will, by getting angry, and at Hook. And mask it by accusing him of lying to her. At this point, we are starting to see a new Emma slowly emerging. After her experiences finding Henry and her parents, and then being given positive memories of raising Henry, she’s shown that she’s able to cope better than S1 Emma would have. She can still toss those walls up in a moment, can still use words to wound, but she does it far less – and she recovers far more quickly. Her experience with Neal, and subsequently feeling that she had to give up Henry, paralyzed her for over a DECADE…but as she merges the real memories with the ‘what could have beens,’ she really seems to have softened, and grown stronger – she isn’t constantly on survival mode, like she was even at the end of 3A. She can do her part in getting the WW, but she also allows herself moments (taking Daddy Charming’s advice!), like confronting Hook – not because she thinks he has information pertinent to their search, but because she wants to know. For herself.
^This – you said it WAY better than I could have have 🙂
[adrotate group="5"]A very good point was raised on FB- The black screen may not have been to prevent spoilers, but could have been to do with lighting – which ties in perfectly with what @Bo-Peeps said 🙂
Although I’m still hoping more for a possible CS engagement than wedding– girl can dream cant she lol 😉
So a random thought just popped into my head- What would Emma say if she found out Hook got an Emma tattoo while he was in FTL that year bahahahahahaha …. It’d be priceless to see her expression & his ‘does that surprise you love’, now you know why I was cagey about telling you everything that went down before I found you LOL :p I know it’s not even remotely possible, but it was just a random crack theory that floated through my head 😉
So thinking about a CS wedding vs. engagement due to the recent info about the blocked CS scene, I thought of the potential for something else. Remember before Walsh proposed and he took Emma down memory lane with how they went to the same restaurant on their first date and she only wanted a sundae, yadda, yadda?? Well aren’t the tables outside of Granny’s very similar to the one that Emma and Hook were sitting at together when the had their first “moment” together when Emma told him about her superpower and then when she held the knife to his throat? If we are wondering if an engagement, but definately a wedding, is too fast to happen by 3×22 we could still get a parallel to 3×12 with Emma and Hook reminecesing over their first meeting together across a table outside of Granny’s. If we have already had a TLK by this point Hook could even “jokingly” bring up how Emma was considering marrying a monkey again since she said she Walsh as a way to test out the waters to see if she is still open to the idea of marriage with someone she loves, since a successful TLK would clearly mean she loves Hook. So it could be a tradional CS flirty banter about engagement/marriage (which would make sense if they are at a Rumbelle wedding) but with obviously more serious undertones so they both understand that they are REALLY not joking about it. Then they can kiss. That way they end the season with Hook and Emma as a canon TL couple who they have implied will end up getting engaged and married one day but they still leave the relationship open for the sexual tension of WHEN will all of that happen – they need to go on dates, they will probably be separated by something and have to fight to get back to each other, etc. But Emma’s walls will be completely gone and we will know they are a couple but will be dying to see more over the hiatus.
I love that idea @rumplegoldfan !!
And if she serves him a drink, that would parallel their first meeting in Tallahassee where she gave him water after the rescue.
So we are driving down to Florida for my son’s Spring Break. I told my husband we HAVE to make it there by 8:00 so I can watch OUaT. Yes, sadly I have coordinated our entire vacation around my ability to watch the show, especially since we think the death happens this week or next week. I didn’t want to be stuck in the car trying to figure out what was happening based upon everyone’s reactions in the chat from my iphone.
I’m so excited for tonight!! It’s about the only thing keeping me sane during this long drive!!
We are going to Tampa for 2 days – my son is a ballet dancer and there is a guy there who wants to train my son who is very well known for training and producing male Principal dancers, so we are taking him there so he can work with him for 2 days to see if he likes him. Then we are going to Disney World for the rest of the week.
