I feel your frustration with the writing for Rumple. I think they wanted to show definitively that this is who he is at his core, because he made the decision without the influence of the darkness inside him. Which isn't necessarily a bad story, but it's a little tiring when they keep working in the redemption angle only to pull the rug out from under you. It also feels a bit inconsistent with the way they wrote him in the first three seasons. I guess they just didn't want to lose him as an antagonist, which I can understand because he makes a good one.

You realising they're taking Henry to the Underworld with them made me laugh so much. It's so true and all I can think any time I watch this story arc. Not even a scene of them saying he wasn't coming and him fighting them on it and them giving in. Just Emma telling everyone she's going to the Underworld, then every single one of them going with her. It's so funny. 🤣

Okay, so now that you've seen this episode I can say what I wanted to about Hook as the DO. His reaction to Emma using Excalibur to control him just makes total sense, and it makes sense why that would be what sets him off. Learning that he was literally a child slave just explains so much. Idk how old he was in the flashback, but he was YOUNG. He was just a little kid, and his Dad sold him into slavery. Where his entire life would've been controlled by others until eventually he was free. So we have that, plus the time Rumple had his heart and was using it to control him, and then Emma of all people is controlling him. It's a trigger. I mean, we see it with Emma often. She lived her whole childhood feeling abandoned and getting abandoned, and now when she feels she's about to be abandoned again she finds a way to hold on as tightly as she can, like turning Hook into a DO. Hook however lived his whole childhood being controlled, so now when he feels he's being controlled again he lashes out. He spoke a lot about being controlled in episode 10. When Emma caught him in Granny's getting ready to cast the curse he outright said "And now no one will ever control me again!" Pretty much everything he said was actually about control. He sent Excalibur back to it's stone so fast. So yeah, that's what it all boils down to in the end. As a child his Dad made a choice to sell him and Liam into servitude, leading to him being controlled and abused and literally someone's PROPERTY, and then Emma made a choice to turn him into the DO despite his pleas not to and then lied about having Excalibur the one thing that could take his free will away, and then actually used it on him. So yeah, I think his descent into the Darkness makes a lot of sense when you've got that one key piece of information that he was a child slave. Ugh, and his Dad! I despise him! He literally sells his two sons into servitude, then once he's awake from his sleeping curse gets to live a happy life with a wife and kid. Sure, the wife died, but he got some happiness there. And naming his new son after one of the ones he abandoned. Idc what he said about doing it to honour them, it was disrespectful and disgusting. And I just can't blame Killian for lashing out and killing him. Liam Jr didn't deserve that, at all, and THAT part was awful. But Brennan deserved it. Idc. Killian wasn't wrong to kill HIS Father, but he WAS wrong to kill Liam Jr's Father. Does that make sense? Ugh, and for him to tell Killian he could still change and all that. It all just leaves a bad taste in my mouth. HE set him down this path. HE SOLD HIM! HE LITERALLY SOLD HIS SONS FOR AN OLD ROWBOAT! THEY WERE WORTH HALF A ROWBOAT EACH TO HIM!

There actually was a planned scene like that, but it didn't make the final cut. But Adam Horowitz posted the script page on Twitter, but basically Emma first protests to David and Snow going with her, but Snow and Regina say they want to help her. Then Henry chimes in and says he wants to because he's a hero and the Author now, both Emma and Regina both simultaneously say no, but he retorts with "When I was ten I got on a bus to Boston by myself to find you. If you leave me behind, I'll find another way", and they both relent.

That's so iconic from Henry tbh 🤣 I'm always here for cutting scenes for time but that should definitely have stayed

As this show wraps up, you start to wonder how much Rumple actually knew was going to happen. And if he did, Did he lie? or just play his role in the destiny of others and in so doing, get his.
