"We were happy."
"Because... it was born out of true love."I really love what Schmacky had to say here
I forgot that when I first watched that scene that was exactly what I was thinking. Neal didn’t forget anything. He remembers ALL that happened but he was willing to forgive.
"We were happy."
"Because... it was born out of true love."Slurpeez and I were chatting about the ring on Emma’s finger and I was wondering if its the same as the one that Walsh proposed to her with. Anyone have some screencaps of the proposal ring by any chance? And if it is the same ring (and not a prop mistake) what could it mean?
"We were happy."
"Because... it was born out of true love."Its ironic now, but I still completely stand by the essay I wrote on tumblr a few weeks ago about why Neal’s death makes no narrative sense. It’s a retread that sends the worst kind of fatalistic message. Also…what the heck are they going to do with Rumple? I see no foreward trajectory for that character outside of bonding with Henry, which…eh, I don’t see being a focus of the showrunners, somehow.
Unfortunately I think they will write him moving on with his life with Belle (after a short mourning period) and then occasionally mention Bae and then eventually nothing.

"Because... it was born out of true love."Hi Ouatrandothoughts!! Welcome to our group therapy session. Lol. 🙂
Cookies and hugs!
I just wanted to say that I agree with what everyone has been saying. I am morbidly curious as how they handle Neal’s death on the show. I really do hate that the funeral won’t mean as much to Henry and Rumple doesn’t even get to be there to mourn his own son. So tragic, so pointless.

"Because... it was born out of true love."I’m not sure if I can still watch. I’m not really paying attention to spoilers and I haven’t looked at any sneak peeks. What’s even sadder is that I’ve lost interest; I really have.
I know what you mean. I made the mistake of looking in the “Who’s Filming Now” thread. I wish I hadn’t. I haven’t watched the sneak peeks for 3×16 nor will I tune in live. I probably won’t watch the rest of the season. It’s not out of any malice. It’s more like I lost interest and faith in the narrative and the message of the story. Frankly, I think the show has been headed in a downward trajectory for quite a while now. The main reason I held on was my hope in Neal getting a second chance. I realize that Neal was the main reason I enjoyed parts of S2. All of my favorite episodes included Neal: “Tallahassee,” “Manhattan” and “Second Start to the Right.” The rest of S2 was just average, nothing special. S3a should have been exciting. Neal fighting to get back to Emma and Henry. Neal fighting for his second chance. Hook going head to head with Peter Pan. It was Neverland for Pete’s sake! Yet, in the end, it was a big let down. Rumple’s sacrifice proved partially in vain because Neal didn’t get that second chance at happiness. At least Belle survived. Yet, Rumple said Neal was his happy ending. No matter how much Rumple loves Belle, he’ll never get have full happiness without his son. And the fact is, Emma lost her true love. That’s the price of her being the savior. Henry doesn’t get to know his dad. So much of the story has lost it’s magic for me. I want Emma to be happy. I want Regina to get her second chance. But that is lessened for me knowing that not everybody gets a second chance. The good and deserving parish while the unrepentant get their happy endings. That is not the show I was rooting for and why I’ve lost my desire to watch. Once used to be an outlet, and now I need an escape from my former escape.
I know what you guys are saying. I still can’t watch the peeks and promo because I just have no interest. The only thing I’ve seen are the pics that people put here and stuff I just hear about but I’m not really seeking any spoilers and normally I can’t get enough. I just think the show has just completely broken for me. It’s sad to say and I was hoping to not feel this way but I just have no desire now. I guess it’s good because I can spend more time outdoors now and work on my front yard (it seriously needs some work that I have been avoiding). Maybe I’ll read stuff about the episodes later and it’ll interest me and then I’ll watch but we’ll see.

"Because... it was born out of true love."but did Neal explicitly say he sent the message to Hook? I remember being confused about the wording in that scene. I think Hook said something about how Neal would have done the same, but it kind seemed like Neal was just thanking Hook for getting Emma to Storybrooke in general, not for having received the message he sent him specifically. Does anyone have the actual dialogue from the scene? I may very likely be wrong, and if so, I agree that it opens up a lot of questions as to how the hell Neal was able to get a message out when he was stuck inside of Rumple for a year. Also, HUGS for your cousin. I hope there’s good news soon!
That’s what I thought too. I didn’t think he was explicitly telling him that he sent the message just that he appreciates Hook getting Emma when he couldn’t but I haven’t re watched that scene either so I don’t know for sure. That’s just what I remembered thinking when I watched it the first time.

"Because... it was born out of true love."BTW-Just found out during my lunch that my cousin is in the hospital having heart problems. If you could send some good thoughts or prayers his way that would be really appreciated (no news on his overall condition yet). This week has GOT to stop with the emotional trauma for me before I lose what’s left of my mind.
Good thoughts, prayers, and hugs your way.
