Hook did not throw the shears away like he promised he would. Instead he’s holding on to them, probably just in case Emma needs to use them to free herself from the Savior role. Will Emma use them? Will someone use them for Emma if she refuses? How does this play into her future vision?

I think at some point and time she will be tempted to use them but will resist and decide she is going to defeat the fate and be an even stronger savior.
Did anyone see a similarity between the shears and the last episode in which Rumple cuts his hair. I just think it’s weird that they again mentioned Rumple’s haircut in this episode and then introduced shears that can cut your fate.

I don’t think it has anything to do with his haircut (which is an external, out of universe event that had to be addressed in show) but I do think that if the shears resurface, it won’t be for Emma but perhaps for Rumple who will use them to cut his own fate as the Dark One somehow. Oh gosh. Does it cleave him from the dagger?

I am just looking at it as a metaphor maybe, Rumple cuts his hair is symbolic of him trying to change his fate. I don’t think the end game will be anything other than TLK breaking his dark one curse finally. Either Rumple will die sacrificing himself for his family or at the very end they will have a true Beauty and the Beast break the curse moment, or maybe they will combine both.
October 23, 2016 at 10:01 pm #329128MatthewPaulModeratorThe big question is if the effects of the shears can be undone. We’ve seen Emma lose her magic before back in 3B, but eventually she was able to regain it. Could the same be the case with Aladdin?

Maybe if he *wishes* (ahem) really hard?
OR, possibly more likely, there’s a reason why we didn’t get a Aladdin/Jasmine kiss tonight. Cue one TLK for the couple.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"October 23, 2016 at 10:11 pm #329130GaultheriaParticipantHook will offer the shears, Emma will be angry, then she’ll be tempted, then she’ll reject the shears (and everyone will accept her decision this time), and then she’ll need to use them.
Bringing this over from the general thread:
–I’m really disappointed that Aladdin used the Shears. I guess he serves as a foil to Emma but there’s still no advancement in the Savior mythos; Aladdin has nothing to offer Emma except a way out.
Or a way to activate all of the potential saviors for the finale!
Oh sure. Let’s just go straight up Buffy S7. Why not.
I think it sounds like a very Disney resolution, in a good way: some problems are too big for one person to handle, we all have to band together, the Force is with us, that sort of thing. Emma is even the right age to have watched Buffy while growing up; she could get the idea from the show. They might have to be vague about referring to Buffy on-screen if the corporate family tree doesn’t let them say it directly, and I don’t think everyone would stay magical after the resolution, but I’m guessing the writing team expected this to be the final season when they started work after the hiatus, so a big finale that involves everyone in town could’ve be on their minds.
On a more mundane note, relatively speaking: if those shears can cut through fate, they can cut through the barrier at the edge of town.

Also worth noting that the shears belonged to The Three Fates. Don’t know how that will come to play, but it might mean something.

Oh that’s a good idea.
