    Does anyone think in the promo it looks like Emma is getting taken away by guards but Killy fights them off so that she doesn’t get taken to jail?  You know, since he KNOWS what a traumatic event going to jail was in her life and how it basically destroyed her ability to trust and have relationships?

    I was pretty annoyed when I saw that evil sneak peek that Regina was defeating the WW, but actually I don’t mind that it happened that way, especially since Emma willingly gave up her magic to save Killian. Although I was ready to slap Emma when she kept on putting him down, but he keeps getting up and letting her do it.

    Very excited for next week though!!! I was pretty wrong about those two going back b/c they wouldn’t meet themselves. Hook punching Hook. Classic! I wonder if past!Hook is getting all leachy on Emma and present!Hook lays him out for it.

    If one is to engage with the primordial forces of darkness, one must expect a little social awkwardness

    Ohhhhhhhhhhh, I LOVE that idea rumplegoldfan! & it’d parallel beautifully against Neal allowing/having left her in jail too!

    I would love for that to be the reason why Hook does it. I’d love for his response to be “My god, was I really like that? Why didn’t you tell me!!???”

    Theory on why Hook knocks his presumed younger self unconscious: Because the younger Hook is about to meet up with Milah making it look like she was kidnapped when in fact, it was a planned “bug out”. Hook knocks his earlier self out to prevent himself from making a stupid mistake. What would the ramifications of an altered timeline be?

    Hehe, it would be wouldnt it- but they wont meet as Milah died hundreds of years before these events took place remember- Snowing is in their 30’s now, Milah & Hook took place 5-10yrs BEFORE Bae fell through the portal to olden day, world without magic- Snowing falls era takes place a hundred or more years after Milah dies/Bae falls through the portal. I do hope & think this will nail down when Hook left NL & went back to EF (before the curse) though.

    I think it’d be awesome as well if Killy decks old Hook for coming onto Emma as well lol. I guess they’ll need the JR to get back to SB or what ever place we are going to next season.

    UGH! So bittersweet for next ep- cant wait & very excited to see what A&E have in store for us & esp CS, but it’ll be the last ep of the season *cries*. This season has been extremely good so far- the wait for S4 is going to feel like forever!!!!!!!

    I am sooooo excited for the finale. I already told my husband that it is Mother’s Day and I just want to plop my butt in front of the TV for two hours and not be disturbed.

    I am still so very confused how the JR plays into all this. Why it is missing, how Killian got to NYC, etc. The time they are going back is when Snowing meets so this is way before the past year. Unless they time travel again I don’t see how they could help Killian get to NYC? I suppose they could do something like have Emma and Killian steal the JR in Snowing meet time and parallel a flashback of what Killian did with the JR in the last year? Anybody have any theories/ideas on how this is all going to go down? I also don’t understand why Snowing meeting gets messed up unless they inadvertently cause a change and then have to work to fix it. When they go back (how?) will everybody they met in the past now have “new” memories about their past? This is why I hate time travel stuff. Seeing Killian in Mr. Darcy-like clothes is totally worth it though haha.

    So I still think the last episode was really good for CS even though it didn’t go down how some of us wanted. I am more upset that Emma actually lost her magic then anything else. Her magic should have been stronger than Zelena’s dark magic curse even if it wasn’t a TLK. I am also just a tad frustrated because Emma is just downright delusional (especially about NYC). I think they keep pushing Emma’s delusion regarding going back to NYC in order to illustrate just how crazy she is being and that if she can’t be rational about that how is she going to make rational decisions regarding her love life?

    Unless she is going to NYC alone there is no way that is going to happen because Henry for one will refuse to leave and Regina has a right to have her say heard as well. The Charmings are obviously going to side with Regina so it is going to be Emma vs. everyone. I think it is telling that Emma hasn’t made her NYC plans known to Henry OR Regina even though she is quite verbal about it with Killian and even her parents. I am glad that despite looking like a wounded puppy half the time Killian stands up to Emma and calls her out because she REALLY needs to be called out.

    I was really hoping Henry would stick up for Killian or even mention him but that clearly didn’t happen. Glad that Charming pulled his head out of his butt even though no apology was offered and it was a quick 180.

    I am pregnant so Zelena taking the baby and the direct aftermath gave me mega feels. Poor Snowing. The reunion was so sweet though. I just wish Killian didn’t feel like he had to hang out by the door. Personally I thought Emma’s remark that losing her magic didn’t matter because she wouldn’t need it in NY was the most cutting of the episode and seemed out of place after there very sweet convo directly prior to it. Oh well. A&E like to torture us 😛 I don’t know how I am going to get through this week. It is going to take foooorever!!!!

    Rumplegoldfan: Yes, you were right! Good job!

    That’s one thing I like about this board, and about spoilers. It’s not always about knowing what’s going to happen. It’s the fun in being a sleuth and finding clues within information, in attempt to solve a mystery. Rooby Rooby Rooooo!!!!

    Ok- I apologise in advance- this is going to be loooong (just doing my re-watch)- I wont comment on the Oz stuff, as it seems most of it was there to drive home the point that people “choose” their destiny/ being good or evil etc.

    Hehe, I just realised Emma considers Killian a “loved one” 😉 & that is part of why she is ticked off with him. Didnt like the fact she is still on her hypocritical, high horse this ep (she didnt seem to have a problem with telling Snow to “forgive & forget” Charming’s lie/ truth withholding while in NL- to the point Snow got snippy with her over it- yet she now has a problem with it cause it suits her lol- someone is being the rebellious 16yr old, 14yrs late :p ).

    Loved Henry’s subtle CS shipping- “an apartment next to the water, with a view” LOL…. Wonder why he thinks Emma would like to live next to the water, in a place with a view LOLOLOL. Someone expects his mummy to be hanging out with a certain ‘dashing pirate’ more often than not while living in SB (so he obviously approves 😉 )- looks like Henry doesnt share his mom’s opinion on Killy’s punishment for not telling her about his green lips :p
    I’ve already said this before & this ep proved it- Killian was damned if he told about the curse, damned if he didnt.

    When he pointed out telling her would have been Henry’s death sentence, Emma didnt care about that fact, in fact she looked ticked off that he had pointed that fact out & went on to say “his safety is for me to worry about”- so IMO, her anger at Killy not telling her, had/has Nothing to do with “keeping Henry safe“, that’s just a convenient excuse, she was/ is terrified that he took it upon himself to put himself in danger on her & Henry’s behalf- without discussing it with her 1st & THAT is the beyond scary gesture, that has her freaking out 😉

    I mean look at how she reacted when Snow said in S2 ‘Emma’d have to get used to Snow putting her 1st’, but now we have a man whom not only

    • Reads her like an open book,
    • Has a special connection with her,
    • Has made no secret of his feelings for her,
    • Has proven to be trust worthy,
    • Put aside his quest for vengeance of his murdered 1st love,
    • Keeps turning up to help her & her family- no matter what,
    • Puts up with her ‘nastiness’ & walls,
    • Gets on with/ is friends with her son,
    • Is not only is willing to lay down his life for her, but also for her only child as well

    – that’s friggn MASSIVE & a horribly scary thought/situation for a women who is used to being

    • Burnt,
    • Screwed over,
    • Abandoned,
    • Having trust issues,
    • Used to living alone,
    • Being pretty much friendless,
    • Keeps her walls up,
    • Things just going horribly wrong in general- but esp in love!

    So, she feels if she can distance herself from Killian, try not to feel anything ‘more’ for him & get out of SB with Henry, she has a chance of ‘protecting’ herself from taking a chance on opening up to love & the very real possibility of having everything she wants- Her happy ever after & her family.

    What scares her is the fact that she can taste it, see it happening & knows if she stays in SB she will “go there” with Killian, as she’s already thought about it (hence telling him “I’m tired of living in the past”) & that makes the “danger” of staying all the more real & intense for her.

    Can you imagine what is going to happen when she tries to tell Henry they are leaving, that kid is going to straight up tell her no, this is “OUR” home & I’m staying. It’s not like Regina will be ok with letting him go now the big bad is supposedly gone & she now will have everything she ever wanted in her grasp, either.

    I think Emma will go into panic mode if I’m correct & Henry does refuse to leave, then it will be Killy once again being there to pick up her pieces & support her through it, like the wonderful TL partner he is for her 🙂

    How anyone can think Emma doesnt have more than “friendship” feelings towards Killian is beyond me- when she pulled him out of the water trough she says (& I quote directly)

    Emma “Hook! Hook! Hook! Wake up!”

    “Killian! Killian, come back to me”.

    “Oh god! Son of a b!%@h.” *gives mouth to mouth* Whispers “Hook, come back to me” *has intense look of relief & relaxes her whole body as he spits up water & comes around*

    Then you add this to her expression when Killian touches his lips after whispering

    “Swan….” & saying/shouting “What did you do?! What did you do?!”

    She looks like she isnt sure what to tell him & the impact of what she just chose to do in that moment starts to dawn on her.

    Killy had chosen to be ready & WILLING to give his life to protect her, Henry, her family & her magic. Then Emma goes & gives it all up for him…while she is mad/scared/confused/wants out of all of the FTL madness. I wonder if & would LOVE to see Killy point out to her, that She went against His “expressed” wishes there- he chose NOT to kiss her & take away her powers in order to protect Her, Henry, her family & Everyone else- but she didnt care, she just wanted to “save him/Killian” lol.

    All this ‘Emma choosing Killian over her magic & the others’ (including her brother at this stage) is driven home when she gets to the hospital & reacts to the news her brother is gone- she is very sheepish/insecure about admitting what she has done (I think the gravity of what she did is really kicking in/ hitting home at that stage)- to any of them…. it isnt Killian’s fault he was cursed for loving Emma, it’s not his fault Emma resuscitated him either- Emma “chose him & the consequences of that decision” (nice parallel again there A&E), she’s afraid of what that choice will cost her & her family now.

    I do have to LOL, that AFTER having shot, stabbed & fire balled how many flying monkey’s already, that Now, they choose to decide not to “kill” them as they are their friends LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL :p

    I do find it a little disappointing that once again the “big bad” or “hopeless situation” is resolved by very anti climatic means- dont get me wrong LOVED Regina’s time to shine as the hero & get credit for doing the right thing (funny how quickly it all happened After Cora’s death :p ), but it was just so ‘easy’ again- ie. Oh wait, That’s right- Regina now has light magic as well & her light magic is more powerful than Emma’s magic, despite 2-3eps ago Regina being shocked at how powerful Emma actually is o.O (although I guess Emma could have been weakened by being “out of sync” with Killian- as it seems the TL partners of magic users, gives them a super power boost- so I will let that slip) *sigh*.

    HATED the Rumbelle stuff- seriously he didnt just lie & cheat on his promise to Belle AGAIN?! & he did it on a friggn marriage proposal?! Ugh! When will Belle get a clue?! Here she is sticking up for herself for a change, then in walks Rumple, whom has spent hundreds of years killing people to get what he wants, has lied & cheated his way out of promises to not only “loved ones”,but to HER before & she goes & say’s ‘I trust you not to go murder the women, who murdered your son- Knowing the only reason she isnt dead now is Regina stopped you from killing her with the dagger’ & hands the dagger over to him….. Really?!?! Is she high?!?!- For someone whom is supposed to be so smart, Belle was all kinds of stupid this episode *sigh* Also WHY Didnt WW turn into the DO given Rumple stabbed her with the DO dagger?!?! Instead she turns to china, shatters, crumbles to dust, then turns into smoke, then a portal…. really?!? Dagger’s got some mad skills it seems- but kinda flies in the face of whom ever is killed with the dagger becomes the DO cannon fact they more than established the last 2 seasons o.O

    My fav scene & I will quote again- because I think MANY people missed it! & why I LOVED it so much 🙂

    Killian “I never thought I’d see one of those”

    Emma “It’s called a baby”

    Killian “No Swan, a smile”

    Emma “We won” *looks extremely pleased/happy*

    Killian “With all the chaos…I never got the chance to say thank you” *earnest expression*

    Emma *with look of surprise* “You really think I’d let you drown”

    Killian *expression/manner brightens up*”Given, our history- can you blame me for being uncertain”

    Emma *smiles again & gives breathy chuckle*

    Killian “Has your power returned now that Zelena has been defeated”

    Emma “No”

    Killian *whispers* “I’m sorry love”

    Emma “It’s ok, I wont need it in NY”

    *moment Emma breaks Killian’s (& the CS fandoms) heart(s)…..AGAIN*

    Loved how Happy the Charmings are for that moment in time- that wont last when Emma drops the NY bomb.

     

    Surprising how much the 1st 15-20mins or so of this ep was pointing out how Emma can see a happy ever after in SB, yet she is once again running from it. I mean Henry pointed it out, Killy pointed it out, WW even pointed it out- now Emma has to “believe” in hope & go for it too.

    Well it’s 3:30am here so I’m off to bed lol
