Because they’re true love. And love is strength. So obviously Gideon wants Emma’s true love out of the way, hence why Hook had to go. Cause it’s all about damaging and weakening Emma’s mental strength.
Sure, but Emma still has Henry, Snow, Charming, Regina, and the entire town. I get that the show has started putting more emphasis on romantic love over anything else, but ALL love is strength–not just the romantic sexual love. Emma has still only had a rainbow-type TLK with Henry.
[adrotate group="5"]"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Am I forgetting things? Before this scene, Hook was the only person who knew that David’s father died by sword rather than by drunken accident, and Emma never knew what her grandfather looked lik
No, you’re not. That made zero sense to me either.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Does Emma somehow end up with Hook on the sub? I thought the CS adventure was with both of them in the same place?
I’m guessing she eventually finds out what happened, and tracks him down.
Maybe she uses Ariel and takes the Jolly Roger?

"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"loved the heart scene and Lana killed the acting.
Lana did kill that scene as both Regina and the EQ. And the conclusion to that story–self love and forgiveness–was really potent to Regina’s entire arc. Still not sure I liked the ultimate end of EQ and RH because I think the EQ needs to find peace for a bit longer than a hot second.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"My only thought is that Gideon believes Hook could save Emma with TLK if he (Gideon) did kill her/take her power/something else.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"*sigh*
The writers had a chance to really help some of their audience like Hook by having him confess. But he didn’t. He tried, once again, to cover up his crimes and run from them. Sure, he came back (erm, tried) in the end, but that doesn’t excuse him getting advice (2x!) from someone and not listening to it. Advice, frankly, he didn’t need because of course you should tell Emma!
As far as Emma, I cannot even with her this week.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"I think the main reason they went this route instead of full-on reintegration was to give OutlawQueen some sort of happy ending. There is still some reintegration with Regina giving Evil Queen some of her love, while taking back some of the Evil Queen’s darkness. Otherwise, I think they would have recombined.
100% agreed.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"This was an odd episode for me because tornado sirens were going off the entire time and I thought I was going to die but….
GENERAL: Mixed feelings on this one, guys. The present day Evil Queen and Robin Hood chemistry was fun to watch and I wish the show had gone there with that level of spitfire sooner before they killed our Robin in 5B. I also thought the EQ/Regina stuff was pretty good. But I also didn’t like huge swaths of B-plot, like Emma/Hook and the flashback.
RATING: 7.5/10
LIKED
–Dark OQ had the chemistry and spark I wish Regular!OQ had when they met back in S3B.
–“Please stop asking questions and dig…”
–“Couldn’t you use magic to dig this hole?” “I could but where would the fun be in that?” LOL
–LOL at the Enchanted Ropes!
–It’s not surprising that Regina hates herself most. Her self confidence and self hatred have always been forefront for the Evil Queen/Regina.
–I did really enjoy Lana’s double role tonight, especially when Regina chose love over hate and gave the Evil Queen some of her love and took some of the darkness. I think that’s a rather fitting end to that entire journey of the whole Regina character. (Though, I have some issues. See below)
–“And now I love myself. And so should you.”
–Regina acknowledging that not walking through that door gave her Henry, and her family and the town actually made me tear up. I know I’m super critical of this show but Regina’s story has always felt the strongest and she really has come so far.
MIXED
–Seriously, how do these shears work? They are supposed to separate a person from their destiny, so is the show saying that Regina was always destined to be the EQ? Whatever happened to “evil isn’t born, it’s made.” I honestly don’t get these MacGuffins.
–So using the shears actually involves no cutting and actually involves someone getting their energy sucked out?? I was so confused by the image of Regina getting purple’d.
DISLIKED
–I still think it’s weird to see Henry Sr after his and Regina’s moving and wonderful goodbye last year.
–For heaven’s sake. There is a never before seen map that leads to a never before disclosed powerful object that can help Regina with Snow. That’s two MacGuffin in one scene!
–LOL, really? Cupid’s Arrow?
–Hook had two people tell him to tell Emma and he still chose to not! This is nonsense and it’s nonsense that I’m supposed to be rooting for them after all these lies.
–And Emma knew that was Robert in Hook’s memory because….? She’s never seen him before!
–Emma doesn’t care that Hook killed her grandfather and was more worried about Hook burning those memories. She doesn’t even care about how it affects David, just herself and her relationship with her fiance. Ugh.
–“We need to stop keeping things from each other!” Yes, you do! And yet…at every turn!!!
–The Evil Queen finding hope and loving herself is great but did it have to include a romantic relationship? A romance is not the end all, be all, cure all to a villain.
–What on earth is going on with Ginny’s hair this week???
–Way to waste Rose McIver, show!
