Ooh I have a thought what if Emma tries to kiss Hook again but he stops her and tells her that Neal is alive! Then kablooey everything blows up in his face, and he’s left heart broken as Emma storms off!

Ok considering we were up against World Series and Sunday Night Football I’m very happy since we actually went up vs more competition. Next week the Series should be over and the football game on paper isn’t really anything special. We should do well again for Ariel.

The problem is that disregards the prophecy about Henry being his undoing.
Undoing can just mean that he loses his power not that he dies
It was extremely subtle but it was there. If that isn’t enough for you, then how about the fact that they played the Captain Swan theme during their kiss?
That was really happening? I though that was just in me head! lol
This dilemma is not purely about Hook and his affection for Emma; it’s also about Hook regarding Baelfire as Milha’s boy who was almost like a son to him at one point. Hook owes it not just to Emma, but to Bae, and to himself to do the right thing. The last time Hook was in NL with Bae, he let him leave his ship (though it was Bae’s decision), so it’d be fitting for Hook to also help rescue Neal this time around. That would show real, lasting character growth. Neal said in 2×22, “The things we do for our children” and Neal is the closet Hook has ever come to having a son of his own (that we know of anyway).
That’s also true the guy is just conflicted from all sides lol
I think he may consider it a risk, because he knows that Emma does actually love Neal, and they have a history together. Hook’s own relationship with Emma isn’t that deep and lasting yet. Emma told him the kiss was a one time thing. So if she suddenly knows that Neal is alive, I think Hook is smart enough to know that there’s a real chance she’d go back to him. I do think he’ll tell though, at least I hope he does, because like you said, character development, and he’s been in a similar situation before, that also involved Neal and the keeping of secrets, so as a Hooker, I wanna see him not repeat that same mistake again. All in all, I loved how this ep showed the different aspects of Hook’s character overlapping each other. He lied to Charming…so he could save his life…partly because of his own experience of losing his brother…but also partly to get in Emma’s good graces. Doing the right thing, but for selfish reasons. And it ended with him being presented with this information, and now he’s in a situation where he has to choose if he wants to do the right thing, or the selfish thing.
He’s in between a rock and a hard place, if he tells her she could just fall right back into Neal’s arms. If he doesn’t it will get back to her and she’ll end up back with Neal and looking worse for not telling. Neal’s alive he has to deal with that if he wants to be with Emma the only way is to win her over despite Neal’s presence which is a long shot but really short of taking Pan’s deal or rather a derivative of it it’s his only shot.
