Do you think that the writers planned to have Hook be the one to end up with Emma right from the beginning when they introduced him? Or do you think they saw how much the fans liked him and switched the story to kill off Neal and begin Hook’s transformation into a better person so he can be worthy of Emma? Do you think they killed off Neal bc they felt they couldn’t really give Hook the full spotlight as Emma’s true love if Neal was still around? And if that’s true, do you really think they felt it was worth it to basically reset Rumple’s character by killing him off just so Hook could take center stage?
They absolutely planned them on ending up together in the beginning. The parallels to Snowing in their first adventure, the whole notion of paralleling Neal/Emma in the past with Hook/Emma in the present. Clearly was telling the audience, Neal is the past and Hook is the future and we were right.
I’m going to reveal a spoiler that I found out from one of my good friends over in Vancouver that knows a lot about the shows BTS. Neal’s death was going to stick in S2. The reason why Neal continued on to S3 and MRJ was promoted(even though he was fully aware that his contract was so they could tell the story they wanted to in S2B in S3). That does not mean Neverland. That was in reference to Rumple/Bae as well as Hook/Emma/Neal love triangle. It was going to play out in S2B. You wonder why S2B was such a mess, well there you go. The reason why they had to basically write a pause button till S3, was because Colin broke his leg. And was sidelined for more than half the arc. If he didn’t break his leg then what happened in S3A in regards to the love triangle and more Bae/Hook interaction would have happened in S2B. Neal’s death was going to stick in S2.
Why do you think the major focus in the love triangle was moreso Hook/Emma then Emma/Neal? All you got in regards to Emma/Neal was the cage scene which wasn’t really Emma/Neal and then the scene afterwards which had Neal tell Emma he wasn’t gonna give up which was in itself a load of BS. Because he wasn’t tested the way the others were and yet the scene ends on a close of Hook looking sad(so the focus of that scene was not Emma/Neal, but Hook/Emma again). Then in 3×10 with the whole Emma stood him up. The triangle wasn’t even a triangle. It was the Hook/Emma love story with Neal as somewhat of an obstacle. Killing him off when they did didn’t change that, the triangle was already resolved by then.
So these notions that ABC got involved and everything, wrong. Adam and Eddy gave Colin and JMO a chemistry test before they cast him as Hook. They said “oh shit” during the test and then they knew they had their story. That’s why Hook was promoted to series regular before his first episode even aired.
So yes Hook and Emma was always the plan, right from the start.
[adrotate group="5"]I’m sorry I’m not discussing CS or anything with somebody that thinks “Emma is awful” in S6 and prefers S1 Emma when she had walls, didn’t trust anybody and wasn’t letting love in. Now she is much stronger as a person, she has her walls down, she trusts with heart and she’s embraced the power of love.
Ask yourself this. Why on Earth would a CS fan old or new that comes to this forum want to post on this supposed “Captain Swan” thread to a person that says they make each other weak. Why the heck would a CS fan want to be in that environment. Having to defend their pairing IN THEIR OWN THREAD!?
Makes zero sense. And you people still wonder why CS fans left which basically KILLED your forum. Since the most popular pairing which could generate hits for your site, doesn’t bother coming here anymore.
You don’t see me going on the Emma/Neal thread and saying that it’s statutory rape.

So yes Hook and Emma was always the plan, right from the start. To think he was supposed to be in S1 as a main character.
My favorite moment in the episode aside from “Pancakes” which parallels “Tacos” was Snow going completely meta cause the writers clearly used that line as a way to address the anti Hook/CS crowd.
Hey Hi this is a CS friendly zone, I would like it to stay that way. I could careless about whom is anti Hook. I don’t care about what you have to say. This isn’t the place for you. There’s plenty of places in this forum where you’re more than welcome where CS fans are not. All I want to talk about is pancakes.
I *couldn’t* care less. Honestly, if you feel the need to disrespect people because of fictional characters, then maybe you need to reevaluate your priorities. There is more to life than a TV show.
Look this is a CS thread. I don’t want to hear about anti-hook or whom is anti-Hook. I don’t care. This is a safe zone for CS shippers. If you want to bash Hook and CS go do so to your hearts content anywhere else in this forum. I’m sure you’ll feel very welcomed there.
Anyways yeah Hook had to take a cold shower cause of Snow’s cockblocking. Maybe him and Emma relieved their tension after she left cause they looked very happy at the sheriff’s office.
Also to the anti Hook/CS fans. Maybe you should take what Snow told David in this episode to heart because I’m pretty sure that was the writers telling the anti Hook/CS fans what’s up.

Isn’t it nice knowing the CS fandom on social media is massive. So that all this forums like deadness makes it so joyful. If they were more open to CS fans especially now I have no doubt this forum would be a lot more alive.
Pancakes are very good BTW, especially the morning after. 😉 Which is very obvious what CS did the engagement night.
If there’s a S7, I’m kind of expecting that Emma is going to end up pregnant and that’s gonna be quite the baby.
A baby not only born of true love but a Savior baby as well. That’s gonna be a very strong baby.
Let me just say that if S7 is not their intended ending they better jsut brace themselves for it because I can’t imagine how bad the ratings will get to next season.
It’s completely impossible that the ratings will stay at a 0.7 for the entire year.
According to Futon Critic, we’re getting a pre-finale special at 7pm called “The Final Battle Begins”: http://www.thefutoncritic.com/showatch/once-upon-a-time/listings/ Interesting that we’ve never had a special for a finale before. Typically just the premieres. I guess it means 2 things: 1) They’re going to end the series after all. 2) They wanted a special because it’s still the end of the current narrative and we’re losing notable cast members, regardless of a renewal.
#2 is probably the case but I imagine the cast they’re losing will come back for a couple of episodes including the series finale next season.
