Re: Hook and alcohol, even in 3B it was brought out as a crutch. Alcoholic - no but definitely issue enough to be prominent. For instance in Bleeding Through in Granny's when Emma is teasing him and he apologizes ( after being cursed) he immediately takes a big swig from the flask- enough to raise Emma's eyebrows. Even when not drinking he likes having the flask close when he is unsure of things..like near the close of 3.22 before the kiss. Definitely a crutch but as his life changes one he needs less and less. Now he can have "coctails" for fun instead of drinking to get beyond his own sadness.

TigerLynx... Absolutley. His love for her is obvious and he made his intentions clear to her in Neverland, but beyond that didn't pressure Emma. He expressed his love by being a constant support and believing in her. Still, he managed to not be a complete love-sick idiot and stood up to her when whe needed hard truths. Nothing sexier than all of that. Souris.. Hmm. Colin in a film role, Singing. Yep, I'll be watching that.

Hi angelwoody! Glad you are here! Each time I peek at TwoP I think to myself, "is this the last time? is this it?". Sigh. Sounds like most of us are heading here wo even though we'll miss the site we'll have our peeps!

Regina has a right to be angry with Emma in the moment re: bringing Marian back, but it has to end after that. If they want us to believe any of the Regina Redempton arc then Regina is self-reflective enough that she would know she couldn't have a relationship with Robin if she killed his wife. She may not have known it at the time - Marian would have been some random soul to here - but now she does and she should be grateful to Emma for saving Marian. If Regina really loves Robin then she would not have wanted to be the one responsible for his wife's death. All that said, this is all about setting the great Regina backslide of 2014/2015 which means at least she may be interesting again. I found St. Regina completely boring and look forward to her being a bit more evil again.

I love Hook with Emma generally -- just not recent mopey Hook. I liked him better again in 3.20 when he was getting in her face a bit. That's the Killian Jones I know and love! I absolutely think in season 4 we need Hook to have a storyline that has him out on an adventure for at least a few episodes without Emma, similar to season two when Snow and Charming were separated. I would love to see Hook and Charming (I love it when Hook calls him Dave...) have to go out on a bromance adventure together and rely on eachother for more than a couple minutes of an episode. They have great chemistry and the Hook character could really benefit from a storyline (The Jolly Roger episode aside) that is not Emma-centric. It would really help to deepen what is already one of my favorite characters.

Eddie and Adam seemed to indicate Black Beard wasn't Hook's father.... plus he would also have to be 300+ years old. How many characters can they really have like that? I think if they address Hook's father in the future we will find it to be Davy Jones and he will probably be some evil entity who sold his soul to the gods of the sea for immortality. It could make for a nice season 4B. As for 4A I absolutely believe that it will be Sherwood Forest related. I think Hook and Emma will inadvertly change history regarding Maid Marian(without knowing it) and now she will be alive. This is why Wil Scarlet will show up in the final mintues of the finale. Prince John will be our bad guy. Robin in 4A will have to leave Regina to save Marian who is now missing, not dead. She may even end up caring for Roland while Robin searches for his wife. Regina will be miserable and slowly resort to her evil ways -- which would make me very happy by the way. I love the Evil Regal.
