Front of DB’s car, also not a match…
Per chat with @CaptainEala:
maybe the car belongs to Dorothy. Red car is sorta like the red slippers that take you home.
My fave theory for Gorham’s character is that he’s Dorothy’s son, so I’ll guess it’s his car if we’re going with the red car/slippers thing.
[adrotate group="5"]Not Ruby’s car, unless they’re just using a different red car for her now. This was her car in Price Of Gold…
“Terriers” was just on here, it was the ep where MRJ’s character proposed, and it was kinda horrible because his girlfriend was pregnant, and he knows even though she hasn’t told him because he found the pregnancy test, but she’s cheated on him, so she doesn’t know who the father is, but she still accepted his proposal, and I was all, “Noooo, my poor puppy, you don’t wanna propose to that $&*#&.” But then I had some SF proposal feels creep into my head (he looks so Neal-ish, and he was down on one knee, I couldn’t help it) and OMG I need for that to happen some day, and I ended up with the warm fuzzies and just had to get it out of my system, hence this post.
PS. He’s really great in “Terriers”, I really need to track down all the eps, (didn’t realise they were showing it here until a few weeks ago), and I wanna see all his other work too because dammit he’s good at the acting thing.
But I was always under the impression that they killed GOAT so quickly because of the backlash in S2. They wanted to be rid of those two ASAP, so bringing Greg back now just when the audience (casual one) has forgotten about him doesn’t make sense narrative-wise but also viewership-wise.
Agreed. Also, they’ve said they’re done with NL, and they couldn’t show Greg coming back to life without showing NL. So I really don’t think we’ll be seeing him again.
I’m picturing a half eaten Greg Mendel walking through the EF now trying to eat Regina’s brain.
😆
Seriously, it’s odd that the article mentioned Greg specifically. But yeah, Tink said there wasn’t much left of him, so he was likely eaten by wildlife, and Adam tweeted he was dead, though they’ve since revealed that having your shadow removed doesn’t actually KILL you, it just incapacitates you to the point of looking dead, unless and until you get your shadow back. But Greg would have to basically be a zombie if they brought back his half eaten corpse, so here’s hoping they’re referring to someone else.
Well, it is a little bit fishy that Ariel is coming back for this episode so you could be on to something.
(I had to. The hook was obvious)
(I’m just fishing for compliments)
(I’ll be here all night)
😆 Love your work. 😉 (Seriously though, even if Ariel and Hook just share screen time, I’m not even fussed on the context any more, just get them in the same shot so we can screencap it and make believe, and my broken crackshipper heart will be somewhat placated.)
That’s a pretty impressive headcanon.
We know what happened last time I got myself some headcanon involving Hook and a mermaid, so I’m not willing to bet any cookies on it yet, but my imagination got the better of me (again). 😉
This is an idea that just came to me, but what if the story Hook told Bae is both true and not true.
I could see it being a partial truth, but I’m starting to get a bit of a headcanon that won’t quit, and I do think it’s likely that their father left them. Like I said in a previous post, an event like his own father having been seduced away in Killian’s childhood could inform why he made a habit of seducing other men’s wives himself. It’s that classic situation where the victim becomes the perpetrator.
So, my tentative headcanon as it currently stands…
As children, Killian and Liam would work with their father who was a fisherman. He’d tell them stories about how one day they’d be rich enough to sail off and explore the seas properly. One day they encounter a mermaid, maybe they encounter her several times, maybe she promises to grant them riches (there are several British folktales of mermaids giving riches to humans, one of them is even about a fishing family), and maybe she seduces Papa (Davy) Jones. But it ends up they were wrong to trust her, she doesn’t grant them riches in the end, (which is why Hook declared that mermaids are liars) and having been enchanted by her, their father is drawn into the water and they believe he’s drowned, (the boys witness this of course, desperate for their father to not fall for the mermaid, but he’s too far gone). Years later, Killian Jones in the beginning of his pirating career, runs into his father again. He’s not dead after all, the mermaid worked some voodoo on him and we’ll get a character similar to the PotC take on Davy Jones, (only less octopus-ish, but still similar in the sense that he fell for a magical being of the sea, like the PotC version fell for a sea goddess), who has lost his humanity and become this mythical being of sorts, who captains a pirate ship. He engages in combat with Killian and his crew, and then realises that he’s his son. Then maybe he suggests that they sail the seas together, like they’d always talked about when Killian and Liam were kids. Or maybe Killian is the one to suggest they do that. Or maybe Davy’s so far gone and just tries to take Killian and his crew out anyway. Either way, they obviously didn’t end up sailing around together all happy families.Anyway, something like that would make Hook’s story to Bae a partial truth. The dream of sailing the seas together is still there, as is the abandonment. And the extra stuff explains why he hates mermaids, and also possibly why he’s a womansier.
