    I have taken loads of film editing classes and have been properly trained in the field but to then be dismissed just because according to someone I saw the scene with CS shipper in me.

    No I don’t watch the show looking for every knick and cranny that may be for my couple I just watch the show and I have taken loads of classes and know what to look to when it comes to camera angles, editing, etc.

    The whole Neal/Emma preamble to Hook’s return connecting basically that Emma needs Hook and it was the least subtle thing in the world. On top of that they did it earlier on in the episode when Regina said that if Bae can’t do it then there is nothing that can save Rumple’s humanity than we cut to a scene of Belle. That’s intentional editing and it’s done on purpose.

    It’s not because I may be a CS shipper, no one should be judged on that preference. I’m more than just a CS shipper.

    I didn’t make that connection at all, but I wasn’t watching it as a CaptainSwan shipper. That scene was ALL about the SwanFire feels for me.

    Nealfire: “Don’t worry about it, you’ll figure it out. One thing I know about you, you don’t stop til you find what you’re looking for.”
    Emma: *awkward half smile*

    What I read into that smile was her thinking, “If only you knew that I searched for you in Tallahassee for two years, and eventually felt like there was no hope left, but still, here you are sitting in front of me right now, because we were inevitably drawn back together.”

    Guess it goes to show that the end of the ep was well written if it can appeal to both rival shipper camps. 😉

    You didn’t have to see it as a “CS shipper” and I don’t watch the show as one, despite being one. I don’t look for every knick and cranny to try to say oh hey that’s for my couple.

    It was just a very clear deliberate set up. That Neal/Emma scene could have gone at any moment in the episode yet it was deliberately placed at the very end of the episode, which in and of itself was a lead in to the long awaited return of Hook. Which basically showed what Neal was saying.

    It was like in the episode when Regina basically told Rumple that if Bae can’t save him than there is nothing that can save his humanity, we then flash to a scene of Belle. This is ALL intentional editing.

    I’m kind of thrown back by the fact that you judged me just because I may ship a couple. I also have taken loads of film editing classes and have been properly trained in this field so that’s more than just my so called “shipping preferences”.

    It was a preamble towards Hooks reveal, it has nothing to do with seeing it as a “Captain Swan” shipper, I just know how this show likes to do it’s edits and it’s as subtle as a sledgehammer.

    So no it’s not because I’m a CS shipper, and its quite upsetting that you would just dismiss my view as that.

    I wouldn't fret there are already spoilers that Hook does team up with Regina but she snakily double crosses him in the next episode. It's gonna be the final thing that draws him to join Emma and the Charmings.

    but yeah I think the episode set up CS very nicely. That final scene right after Neal’s quote was done on purpose. They could have put that scene near the middle of the episode but they decided to place the scene immediately before Hook’s awaited return, which connected back to what Bae told Emma.

    Least Favorite was Rumple beating up the Keith.

    That whole final sequence was as subtle as a sledgehammer.

    Bae tells Emma that she always finds what she needs.
    Queue next scene, Hook’s big reveal. He has been kidnapped and tied up by Tamara.
    He needs to be found.
    Therego in conclusion Emma needs Hook. CS has been set up very well with that last scene.

    A+ subtlety writers, it was as subtle as a sledgehammer.

    I thought the writers said that we wouldn’t see PP this season, so the kid on the hood can’t be PP right?

    I think the last update they gave us was that we’d feel PP’s presence or get a hint on his whereabouts still this season, wasn’t it?

    Never was it confirmed the presence would be Pan’s. Just said that we will feel the presence of a character this season but the character won’t be seen till season three.

    Pan’s not in this season if I had to bet whom the young man was, it’s Felix or the Ruffio type character and leader of the lost boys.

    Hook’s backstory has also been pushed back to S3.

    http://www.fanforum.com/f373/

    It’s the one that has Kindred Spirits as the title, we have over 62 threads. 🙂

    Thanks for that will have a squizz 😉

    Someone posted about the Emma’s ring/ Charming’s mother’s ring connection of love following it where ever it goes & Hook & Emma’s meeting/ FTL interactions being in the presence of it.

    Another small thing to add to that is the Charming and Hook both took the coins they found on the journey’s they had with Snow and Emma even though both women were in a rush and rushing the guys.

    I also called whale being Frankenstein wasn’t it obvious,lol?

    Obvious? To me and TheGoldenKey it was obvious long before eps 5 aired.

    We posted our theory on a few different boards.
    You wouldn’t believe how nastily other people disagreed with us….made fun of us.
    No one believed us……only a handful of people (literally like 5 or 6 others) shared our thoughts/ideas/enthusiasm/anticipation and/or had similar theories.

    It was only obvious to other people when the promo gave it away the week before episode 5 aired.

    Then everyone and their brother realized he was Victor Frankenstein.

    Wow really, well I’m sorry. I thought it was clear from a while back, way before the promo for episode 5. 😆
