Thank you so much for a new reaction for more Once Upon a Time! As for this episode... it is very sad of course with Neal's death. And yes... he died so that Rumple could live again, and so Rumple could tell Emma who the Wicked Witch really is. However, I have to say that this episode is among one of my least favorites within this season. And I only say so, because I can't help but feel a bit underwhelmed every time I watch it, and it isn't just because I've never really been too big of a fan of Neal's character. There are multiple reasons why this episode annoys me. Don't get me wrong... I do like this episode. Also... Neal's death in this episode is tragic and I absolutely feel terrible for everyone who cared about him, especially Emma and Rumple. Henry and Killian too. But if I'm being honest... this isn't the first time we've seen Neal supposedly die, as we were led to believe he had back in season two's episode... Second Star to the Right, until it was later discovered that he was alive in And Straight on 'Til Morning. His real death is much worse and yet I feel that if he wouldn't have supposedly died before, I would have felt much worse about him really dying in this episode. But I think what bothers me the most was that when Neal talks to Belle about paying the cost to bring his father back, Neal is just so careless about how doing so would make those who love him feel. And of course... to bring someone back from the dead, especially someone as powerful as the Dark One, there's going to be a terrible price to pay. Yet Neal did so regardless, despite Belle's pleas for him to wait so they can try to find another way to save Rumple. Honestly, it was a foolish decision on Neal's part. I know Neal was desperate to save his father, but he should have trusted and believed in Belle over Lumiere. And he should have known right away that the cost for bringing someone back from the dead would mean another life would have to be taken in return. Neal of all people knows the price of magic. He knows better than anyone. It just really kind of bothers me how reckless he is. Now, with all this being said, I feel so badly for Rumple, Emma, Henry, and Killian too, and it is definitely sad to see Rumple take Neal into himself in order to try to save him for a little while, even though doing so made him go crazy upon gaining Neal's mind too. This is a nice touch on the episode's storyline and I really like that all of our questions about what happened to Rumple and Neal is finally answered. Also... the acting for both Jennifer Morrison and Robert Carlyle throughout this episode is phenomenal. And I feel most of the emotion throughout this episode coming from them. And while I don't care much for Neal... I think this is easily his character's best episode, and Michael Raymond James' (Neal) acting is also really good. Now... if I had to pick my favorite scene from this episode, I absolutely love the brief moment between Killian and Neal in the hospital, when Killian suddenly hugs Neal much to his surprise, then states that he still sees the boy in him whom he once knew all those years ago. It's quite sweet and very unexpected coming from Hook. I think that's what I love about it. And it really shows just how far he's come since Hook was brought into the show as a villain. And once again... Colin O'Donoghue's (Hook) acting in this scene is phenomenal as well. I also absolutely love the moments between Regina and Robin of course. And now Regina knows she and Robin are meant to be soulmates like Tink told her all those years ago upon Regina seeing Robin's tattoo on his right wrist. I love hearing them repeat their lines they spoke to one another in the Enchanted Forest, with a few changes in the wording, showing just how perfect they are for one another too. Also... I love the moments in the end where David and Mary Margaret come into Gold's shop to tell Belle and Killian that Neal has died, as they comfort them. And then seeing Emma go to Henry to tell him about his father being a hero who died to help them, in the only way she could without Henry remembering the whole truth. It is such a beautiful and sad moment. And lastly... I love the scene in the end between Rumple and Zelena once again in the woods after Emma leaves him there with his son's body. Right now... Gold is broken upon having lost his son once and for all. And he's still trapped as Zelena's prisoner. However, ooh... is he angry now. It's going to get good. :) Overall... this episode is just okay, but I still enjoy it. I can't wait for the storyline to continue throughout the rest of the season and watching each episode going forward with you all over again, as you watch them for the first time! Your reactions as always... are so much fun, even though you were pretty angry and sad at the end of this episode. Nonetheless... Thank you again! Until next time...

I never really liked Neal. But with that being said I don’t like the way they wrote him off. They could have done more with him. Regardless the episode was okay, but not one of my favorites.
