ParticipantFrom all the spoilers coming out from screeners, it sounds like SF fans will have a long wait to see something positive for their ship. But doesn’t that mean that Neal *can’t* die in 316? How do you have any kind of resolution or building of something new in such a short amount of time (assuming 313-315 might have some SF stuff)? If it means Neal doesn’t die, I’ll wait for the good stuff.
It’s all about the slow burn…
From SchmackyI have to agree with this from Schmacky

ParticipantMethinks Adam is mistaken about no screeners being out there. We know that even Daniel has access to a copy of the ep. Maybe Adam is just unaware that it’s been made available to more people than the ones they showed it to in the writers’ room.
Phee I suspect that might be the case here

ParticipantBut think about it: if the SF stuff is yet to come and needs to be explored later then Neal CANT die in 316. How do you resolve a relationship from 313-315?????
You’ve got a point RG I’m digging my heels in and I’m prepared to wait it out here in this thread. I have faith in our Ship I Believe that Neal & Emma will be reunited and back together before the Season Finale

ParticipantThey may be separated by realms at the moment. Neal might be stuck in the EF right this second but he definitely NOT DOWN & OUT FOR THE COUNT.

Participant1 HOUR TIL LOVE DAY!!!! See you guys on twitter ! @LaurelCrowned_8
Oh and here’s a chat I made only for emergencies… like, only if we get like crazy news LOL ..the password is monkeynealYay Laurels Good idea

ParticipantDiscussion in chat, in relation to the “new” spoilers (that were actually posted in January), got me thinking.
Emma was tied to the first Curse because it was essentially her essence that was associated with the Curse, which made her the Saviour, able to break the Curse.
If Zelena plans to use Emma’s blood somehow to enact this new Curse, then I’d think the same rules would apply to her being the Saviour. Her TLK could break the Curse, but so could her death.
So perhaps Zelena knows that no one would want to kill Emma, not even Regina, who totally intended to kill baby Emma before the Curse hit, but she’s accepted Emma now, and wouldn’t kill her because Henry loves her. So if the same rules are in place this time, there’s no risk of Zelena’s Curse being broken by Emma’s death.
Problem is, Emma could also break the Curse with TLK. Maybe that’s part of why Hook tried it, thinking that if it worked, not only would he get to be with Emma, but the whole Curse would be broken as well.
Anyway, if Emma sharing TLK with someone will break the Curse, can’t be Henry again because Emma’s kissed him lots now, and she’s had forehead kisses from her parents too, so that just leaves her present day romantic TLK as the one thing that could break Zelena’s Curse.
Zelena doesn’t want that. Zelena doesn’t want Emma to be hanging out with the guy who could give her TLK. Zelena will know that that person is Neal, because Zelena’s got info out of Rumple, and we know he knows what’s up with SF. If she’s got his dagger, she can ask him who Emma’s TL is, and can force him to answer truthfully.
So Zelena plots to keep Neal away from Emma. Zelena would no doubt think that the best way to achieve that would be to kill Neal, but like I said, she’s hanging out with Rumple, and she may currently have his dagger, but girlfriend isn’t stupid, and the new spoiler suggests that she knew Rumple back in the day and he taught her, so she knows he’s serious business, and she knows that if she kills his son, he WILL find a way to destroy her, dagger control or no. So instead, she kidnaps Neal, and him and his Papa have both been held prisoner which is why neither have been seen out and about on set.
Having been chilling in Zelena’s dungeon, Neal is made aware of the fact that Walsh is really one of Zelena’s minions. It’s like a flip of the Tamara situation, where Emma suspected the fiancee, but Neal was oblivious. Emma will eventually accept Walsh’s proposal. Maybe there’ll be some magical whatever that Zelena rigs so that after Emma kisses Walsh at their wedding, a SF TLK wouldn’t even be possible, even if Neal did manage to escape. Knowing this makes Neal all the more determined to escape.
Having all but confirmed that Neal is Emma’s TL, and that if she marries Walsh, she’ll never get to be with her TL, that’s even more reason why Neal won’t die and SF will be reunited, because I really can’t see them robbing TL Incarnate of her romantic TL. That would be beyond depressing.
So in the finale, at Emma and Walsh’s wedding, “If anyone knows of any reason why these two should not be joined in marriage, speak now or forever hold your peace.” Neal, who has managed to escape from Zelena and get himself to the wedding venue: *bursts in like the BAMF he is* “He’s working for the Wicked Witch!” Crap hits the fan, maybe Walsh tries to grab Emma to kiss her and she punches him in the face instead, then Walsh sprouts his wings, and the goodies are all trying to take him out, and in the midst of the madness, Neal gets to Emma, they kiss, and the Curse breaks.
This is just rambling at the moment, but the more I rambled, the more I thought maybe it has headcanon potential.
[quote=246463] @Phee – That is one nifty head-canon you’ve got there. I’ve likewise been thinking that the reason Zelena has permitted Hook and Walsh to pursue Emma is to distract her from Neal and that Zelena is purposefully keeping Neal out of the way from Emma. [/quote]
I can definitely see this playing out
I’m going to go a step further and say that it’s possible that Neal escapes and gets to Emma I can see the possibility of Zelena trying to kill them both to keep her curse from being broken by their TLK. I can see the possibility of a self sacrifice from certain pirate happening to save them both from Zelena in order to break her curse. Which would redeem one character and make him a hero at the same time it would finish up his storyline and allow SwanFire to be finally be together and have their TLK which breaks Zelena’s curse and with the curse being broken it now sets up for season 4 by everyone including Emma & Henry going back to the Enchanted Forest.

A Reminder That
Neal doesn’t give up, he knows that he’ll find a way back to Emma and Henry.

#BOOM

Participant[quote=246263]At the end of Once Upon a Time’s midseason finale, why did Emma end up in New York City, Neal’s recent home, rather than Boston, her most recent place of residence outside of Storybrooke? –R.T.
Hook poses that exact question in the March 9 midseason premiere – and Emma does have an explanationI may be dancing. I’m not going to get my hopes up that her answer is actually, “Neal lived here,” but I’m happy to learn that there is a reason. NYC is only associated with one other character-Neal. Gotta be something to that[/quote]
RG
I have to agree I think it has to do with Neal. I suspect it’s Emma’s instinct to go where Neal once lived. I’m wondering if she subconsciously remembered that is where Neal lived and where he came back into her’s Henry’s lives
I have to wonder if maybe being the savior she subsconsciously remembers everything that happened in her dreams but it’s in her conscious hours when she is awake that she truly doesn’t remember SB, Her Parents, Neal, Hook,etc…
