Curio September 30, 2016 Share September 30, 2016 (edited) Emma wouldn't wish Granny's mattresses on her worst enemy, yet that's where Hook was forced to stay for most of Season 4. Also said in front of the people who will be staying on those mattresses. Edited September 30, 2016 by Curio 2 Link to comment
RadioGirl27 September 30, 2016 Share September 30, 2016 (edited) So what, Hook and Belle are going to do pajama parties on the Jolly Roger while they drink tea (Hook's with a bit of rum in it) and criticise Rumple? Or is he going to sleep in a bench at the docks (again)? Or are Granny's mattresses bad for Emma's enemies but not for Emma's boyfriend? This is so annoying.

Rumsy4 September 30, 2016 Share September 30, 2016 Poor Hook. Within the Show, we don't know where he's been staying since 3B. Henry was rather abrupt with the random stranger. "Who are you??" lol Also, that conversation between Killian, Emma, and Belle was awkward. Why can't Belle stay at Granny's? I'm just so tired of the poor dialogue and blocking. 1 Link to comment
pezgirl7 September 30, 2016 Share September 30, 2016 Even though Colin said he wasn't sure where Hook was staying, my first thought after watching the sneak peek was that Hook must be staying with Emma in their house. I just got the impression that he's not staying at Granny's because of Emma's comment, and he's not sleeping on the Jolly Roger, because he's offering it to Belle. If he takes Belle to the captain's quarters, I think that will confirm it for me. :) Link to comment
retrograde September 30, 2016 Share September 30, 2016 Yeesh, that sneak peek is just full of awkward, clunky dialogue all around. Colin O'Donoghue says in every one of those interviews that Hook and Emma are usually very honest with each other. I don't know what show he is watching, but from where I sit, they do very little but keep information from each other and tell lies. Link to comment
Kktjones September 30, 2016 Share September 30, 2016 (edited) Yeah - I love me some CaptainSwan, but since 3B their main storyline has involved lying to each other pretty much every single arc. I guess maybe he means they are usually pretty emotionally honest with each other. I could get behind that statement. I'm also not outraged that they aren't living together yet, but the fact that it's undetermined where he currently lives is just bad writing plain and simple... Edited September 30, 2016 by Kktjones Link to comment
Mathius September 30, 2016 Share September 30, 2016 (edited) Seriously. 3B - Hook isn't honest with Emma about his cursed lips. 4A - Hook and Emma aren't honest with each other about a variety of things. 4B - Hook isn't honest with Emma about Ursula, although this one is kept mercifully brief. 5A - Emma isn't honest with Hook about a variety of things. And now Emma isn't honest with Hook once again, which is especially galling since 5B finally bucked the trend and allowed them mutual honesty. EDIT: ETOnline has another interview with Colin. And while it's great that we'll see more of Hook bonding with Charming and Henry, it's frustrating that Snow was not mentioned and so there will still be nothing between the two of them. Given their similar backgrounds as outlaws, I would think there would be great interactions to be had between Snow and Hook, or between Snow and Robin back when he was around, but no, these days Snow's interactions are limited to just Charming and Regina. Emma, Henry, Hook, and other side characters? They don't matter to her anymore. Edited September 30, 2016 by Mathius 1 Link to comment

Shanna Marie September 30, 2016 Share September 30, 2016 Hook's really one to talk to Emma about needing therapy. He could use a few cricket sessions, himself, given the multiple deaths, being the Dark One, learning that his brother wasn't the man he thought he was, his self-loathing and guilt issues, Daddy issues, etc. Why does everyone act like Emma's the only one with stuff to work out? 1 hour ago, RadioGirl27 said: So what, Hook and Belle are going to do pajama parties on the Jolly Roger while they drink tea (Hook's with a bit of rum in it) and criticise Rumple?

It's the only explanation that doesn't totally screw up continuity. It all happened in Hook's head in that split second when Regina was menacing him. Maybe the Evil Queen will spill that it never happened and he's been feeling guilty for nothing. 2 Link to comment
Curio September 30, 2016 Share September 30, 2016 I'm kind of confused by the order of episodes here... Episode 2 is this Sunday and will focus mainly on the Count of Monte Cristo and his feud with Regina. Episode 3 is "The Other Shoe." Cinderella's centric, and I'm guessing this will be the episode where Ashley gives Emma a pep talk about punching back against the world and Emma finally opens up about her vision. Episode 4 is "Strange Case." Obviously a Jekyll/Hyde centric, but will this be the last we see of them? I honestly can't remember if they've filmed in any episodes beyond this point. Maybe this is the end of the road for them. Episode 5 is "Street Rats." I'm assuming it's an Aladdin centric with some Emma and Savior stuff sprinkled thrown in. Episode 6 is "Dark Waters." Hook's centric with Captain Nemo. I feel like this will be a very straightforward centric. Episode 7 is "Heartless." Is this the one where the Blue Fairy is doing some magic at the marina? This one also seemed to feature a lot of Snow and Charming filming in the woods based on the Leaf Lady's photos. They said we'd dive into Charming's past and Ruth would show up, so maybe this is a Charming/Snow centric with an emphasis on Charming. Episode 8 is "I'll Be Your Mirror." I initially thought this was going to be a Henry/Regina episode, but it's looking to be more of an Emma and Regina episode. There are behind the scenes photos of Emma and Regina filming outside of Granny's, and then there's a photo of Regina and Emma down by waterfront and Regina is holding a mirror. But then Jennifer and Lana posted on their Instagram photos of Emma and the Evil Queen at the same waterfront, and I think there was confirmation that Emma and the Evil Queen filmed a night scene together. So are we getting a repeat of "Breaking Glass" (everybody moans and throws things at their computer screens simultaneously) where Regina has a mirror and she and Emma are wandering around trying to find something, and then they run into the Evil Queen at the waterfront? Is that correct? Did I miss anything important? Episode 9 and 10 better pick up the pace, because it doesn't seem like the Evil Queen has caused much trouble at this point. (And I really don't want to see them extending this Evil Queen stuff into the spring, so it needs to wrap up in 80 minutes or less.) Link to comment

There has to be something climactic happening in the winter finale even if the arc continues into Spring, and given that the whole Savior/Aladdin arc and Untold Stories arc have more longevity, then I'm betting that the EQ will be re-absorbed by Regina in episode 10, only for the reveal to be made that it's normal Regina under the hood in Emma's vision (filming spoilers show that Regina is going to learn to swordfight in this coming episode, which also hints at Emma's opponent being her and not the EQ). That way, Regina can become a part of the Savior arc for the rest of the season. Edited October 1, 2016 by Mathius 1 Link to comment

InsertWordHere October 1, 2016 Share October 1, 2016 No offense to the Jolly Roger, but I think I would prefer to stay in a place with running water, regardless of the quality of the mattresses, especially if I was pregnant. Actually, living above a diner while pregnant seems quite ideal. 6 Link to comment
Rumsy4 October 1, 2016 Share October 1, 2016 Lol I agree. It was such an incredibly awkward way to introduce the plot of Belle living on the JR. If Emma thinks the mattresses at Granny's are bad (she used to sleep in her car), why not have Belle stay at her place? That's right--the writers don't want to confirm whether Hook lives there or not. Why have the CS house as an important plot point all through season 5, only to chicken out in season 6? If they didn't want to have Emma and Hook living together out of wedlock, they should never have introduced that as a thing in S5. Just have them talk of a future without a house that Hook literally picked, but is apparently not living in after coming back from the dead. If Emma's issues are so bad that she's going to backtrack on living together with Hook, then she's acting like a flake. 4 Link to comment
Serena October 1, 2016 Share October 1, 2016 It was especially stupid because it would be so easy to find a legitimate reason for Belle not to stay at Granny's. Have her just say, "Actually, I would prefer somewhere a little more hidden so Rumple won't come bother me all the time." Then Hook suggests the Jolly Roger, and Emma says "Perfect, I'll just wave my hands and do some magic that will turn the Jolly invisible so you're hidden. I couldn't do this here because obviously people need to know where Granny's is." 2 Link to comment
sharky October 1, 2016 Share October 1, 2016 To be fair, Belle is pregnant so maybe Granny's isn't the best place. And Emma just got back from the Underworld. Perhaps she hasn't furnished her guest bedroom yet. And maybe the writing is totally clunky. 1 Link to comment
Curio October 1, 2016 Share October 1, 2016 (edited) 2 hours ago, XrystalPond said: With all these refugee characters...Three Musketeers randomly hanging out...they could have just said that Granny's had no room available. After all, it appears to be more of a shelter from what they said in the first episode than an actual B&B. Yeah, I thought that was the obvious response. "Sorry, a bunch of people from the Land of Untold Stories just crashed into town, so all the rooms are booked." I didn't expect some random line about the mattress quality. It's yet another classic case of the writers trying to shoehorn in a "funny" line without thinking about the canon or characterization. I bet in the writers' room they laughed at the visual of Emma saying that line while Granny is off in the background waving her hand in the air out of frustration. But they forget that there probably wasn't room for Belle anyways, that these refugees have to sleep on those mattresses, that Hook was forced to sleep on those mattresses for most of Season 4, and that the Jolly Roger doesn't even technically have mattresses.

And if Snow wants to follow Regina, David will have to follow Snow. If Snow is told to go somewhere, of course she won't listen.

Shanna Marie October 1, 2016 Share October 1, 2016 Something struck me during the night: In the clip with Belle arriving at Granny's, did she react at all to the fact that Hook is alive? When she went under the sleeping curse, he was dead. Even if she assumed that they'd be successful in saving him, wouldn't she react in some way to the fact that she's talking to someone who was dead and in the Underworld the last time she saw him (did she see him? I don't remember whether Belle and Hook interacted in the Underworld)? Like, at least an "oh, good, it worked and you're alive"? I guess it's possible there's more we didn't see. But still, if I'm talking to a friend who was dead and who now isn't, it's probably going to affect the way I interact with him. It's going to be more than, "Oh, I'm glad I ran into you, I need a favor." 3 Link to comment
InsertWordHere October 1, 2016 Share October 1, 2016 I believe the last time Belle and Hook interacted with each other, he was the Dark One and he was challenging Rumple to a duel. 1 Link to comment
Mathius October 1, 2016 Share October 1, 2016 (edited) They interacted offscreen in the time between 5x16 and 5x17, as she's there will him and the rest of the heroes at the end of 5x16, and in the next episode tells Rumple that Hook told her about what had happened with Liam. I can't blame Belle for her lack of reaction, though. Everyone is written in a way where you wouldn't ever be able to tell that Hook was ever dead at all, including Hook himself. Because these writers have absolutely no clue how to write realistic consequences anymore. Edited October 1, 2016 by Mathius 1 Link to comment
YaddaYadda October 1, 2016 Share October 1, 2016 (edited) It's not like the people in Hook's immediate circle got more than a second to process the fact that he is back. Belle is coming back to a place where Hook is alive and Robin is dead, people have been forced to Storybrooke against their will and Regina and the EQ are now 2 separate people. I'm not sure she even had the time to process the fact that her son is the one who woke her from the sleeping curse. Also, where would Emma take her parents to keep them safe?

I thought they did a good job with her in 2A so yes.. and then they screwed it up..(surprise right???) But in 2A she wasnt actively trying to kill anyone, but she wasn't the Charmings best friend at all, and her bad deeds were done for what she thought was "right" making sure no one took her son away...villains doing what they feel is right, in all the wrong ways are more interesting then just evil for evil's sake. I kind of liked Charming and her uneasy alliance for Henry. That kind of stuff was interesting but they blew it when Cora returned and Regina started like she had no brains and was just going kill everyone in SB with that dumb diamond thing and take Henry back to their hell hole world and...it just didn't work. 1 Link to comment
KingOfHearts October 1, 2016 Share October 1, 2016 (edited) Quote As for their unborn child, we will see the adult version of him again this season. “We love [Giles] and we think he’s great,” Horowitz says. “Yes, we’re going to see him again. This was a taste of an introduction, but how we get to that — because she’s clearly still pregnant — is a surprise we want to keep.” Kitsis adds: “He won’t come out 20 [years old].” Adult Damien is coming back. From the article, it seems like A&E think Rumple is a genuine person with a flawed side. But, I don't agree that he can "truly" love Belle and the baby while screwing them over. I don't think audiences will be "falling in love" with Rumple any more after S5. They're not fooling anyone. How can you be trusted after being the purest hero ever and still deceive?

Did they see the premiere ratings and decide to do publicity, so they grabbed the actor who had a free hour this week and put him on the phone with reporters?
