And Robert Carlyle was spotted at the Glasgow airport about 15 hours ago.

Looks like Josh Dallas hasn't filmed yet either, as he has a beard in the pics of him and Colin out & about that I posted in the Colin/Hook thread. So it looks like the the first three days of shooting were Elsa/Anna/Kristoff flashbacks.

Colin's scruff is definitely back. Pics of him and Josh at a soccer match tonight: https://twitter.com/lemon_buzz/status/488143294459674625/photo/1 https://twitter.com/lemon_buzz/status/488147087645609984 https://twitter.com/lemon_buzz/status/488151376409542658/photo/1

From the Anna actress: So Anna and Elsa have a fight?

Interestingly, Bae is also the name of the reindeer in the original Snow Queen tale. So many layers of context!

Yeah, I know it's a slang thing, but it still made me laugh, because context.

I'm just gonna leave this tweet from the Kristoff actor here:

I think Jennifer said at the Aussie Comic Con that she had to be back in Vancouver on the 9th, so that's odd she'd be in Chicago.

They've certainly left Killian's past open enough that a great many things could work. Honestly, the only things we really know about his early years are that: 1) His father abandoned him when he was 7, because Dad was a fugitive, and 2) He had a brother named Liam. Vast amounts of things could fit in there. Your adoption idea could certainly work. I hope they do something to fill in the copious gaps.

My head canon is that he had to survive by himself on the streets after his father abandoned him at age 7 until he was able to reunite with Liam. (Because of the lack of a mention, I'm assuming their mother was dead.) To me, Liam seemed older enough that he was likely already a cabin boy or in whatever their version of a naval academy was when Killian was abandoned, so it would have taken some time and effort for them to be reunited. So that would have been a pretty dire time period for wee Killian.

You know, practically, they should have saved Frozen for 4B, since they'd then be filming in Vancouver when it's actually cold and you could see people's breath, like we could a bunch in 3B. As it is, they'll be filming cold weather in July and August, so the actors will be all bundled up when it's warm. Colin might be glad of a deep V-neck in those conditions!

Yeah, I would say that "Bleeding Through" was definitely my least favorite ep of the season. I hated what they did with Ava, it made Leopold look super-skeevy that he married the daughter of the woman he almost married, and Snow saying she was a brat like it somehow absolved Regina of guilt for what all she did was rage-worthy.

Well, now, that's just crazy talk. ;-)

I wonder if they'd do a trio of JMo, Lana and Jared and have just Josh and Colin together?

Aiyeee! It's happening! It's happening! :runs around flailing: I guess he'll be in a lot of winter coats with long sleeves to deal with the hook. Geez, if that coat did weigh that much, Colin is gonna feel a heck of a lot freer. Literal weight off his back.

They could do a trio of JMo, Colin and Josh, with Josh playing the "dad" to his daughter and her sort-of boyfriend. And Colin and Josh could have a nerd-off. That would be a hoot. Emilie and Robert together, of course.

God, yes. As soon as I saw his name, I got even more concerned about the fan issues. I love that Yvette Nicole Brown is modding.

C is for "Charming suits you."

LOL, that's how I ended up on Z. I forgot Y! Duh.

How do I keep ending up on Z? Z is for Zelena's meat pies! Urgh, what next? Memorable quotes! And I'm going to be tacky and start it: "As you wish."

I'm going to go back to something someone (stealinghome?) said awhile back about liking the friendships on the show and wanting to see that more. I think the show was great about that in S1. We had the start of the friendship with Emma and Mary Margaret, which I really enjoyed. They may know they're mother/daughter now, which of course would alter the dynamic, but I'd like to see the friendship part of the relationship return. Moms and daughters can be friends, too! Then the friendship among Red, Snow and Charming was awesome. I actually jokingly called them my OTThree. (Honestly, if one wanted to ship a trio, they were a great opportunity!) Red was a really important character, and I hate that she was so marginalized that Megan Ory moved on. I unfortunately can't see them bringing Red back to that level even now that Megan is available again, because 4A seems like it's going to have a cast of thousands. But I hope they at least acknowledge the important role she plays in their lives. I desperately hope that Hook and David's bromance actually becomes canon, not just fanon. I mean, they had some moments in S3, but fandom kind of took it and ran with it a bit farther than was there. They haven't shown a true male friendship on the show, so that's a perfect opportunity. I'm also not sure that Snow really hates Hook as much as fandom has decided she does. Obviously, she wasn't a fan up through the Neverland arc. But by the time of "The Jolly Roger," she was assuring Ariel that Hook would help her. And now she has the memory of him being helpful Prince Charles back in the day, too. I think David likes him more, of course, but I'm curious to see where the show takes the Snow/Hook relationship in S4, whether they go with the fanon interpretation or whether she's supportive of him because he makes Emma happy. I do side-eye the insta-BFFs that the show cultivates sometimes. Like Snow and Ariel being suddenly so close.

Robbie's been flying around Europe on vacation. He never said it was Vancouver, fans just jumped to a wild conclusion.

Neither was it ever Hook's intent to rape Emma or anyone else that we've been shown. A sex joke (which the sword line was IMO) isn't a rape joke. So if we're judging characters on the rape argument by intent, not just effect, then that counts for yet another reason why Hook isn't Rapey McRaperson. I will grant you the "getting people drunk is usually my tactic" line. That was a bad line that shouldn't have been filmed. As far as Hook knocking out Past!Hook, it was a combination of jealousy and this Hook not liking that past version of himself. From The Hollywood Reporter:

J is for the Jewel of the Realm, which became the Jolly Roger.
