The Jolly Roger- Yo, Ho, Ho!!! I absolutely love, love, love this episode!!! And I am so happy to have watched your reaction for it!!!!! Thank you so very much, Travis!!! First... The tiny details within this episode are absolutely phenomenal! From us seeing Regina's fear that she may have killed Emma in her training scene on the bridge overlooking the bridge, to seeing how Regina and Emma both recognize that Killian is lying about something, even though they are still unaware as to what he's not telling them. And more... Emma can see that Killian is afraid to tell her the truth about what he's hiding from her, which makes her feel very real sympathy for him. And you can see this on her face in the ending after Killian states that he knows what she means when she tells him she's tired of living trapped in the past. :) Now, in regards to the men I usually gravitate towards falling in love with or crushing on in TV shows and in movies... I always tend to gravitate towards those who are more gentle, softer. Not so much the dark and dangerous kinds of guys. Especially when these characters fall into a relationship with another of the show's or movie's main characters. Guys like who Hook was back when he is first introduced to us in season two's episode... The Crocodile. In any other show or movie before Hook was introduced, a character similar to Neal's personality would have been the kind of character I fall for and prefer to see get together with the girl. However, Killian for me is a very rare exception. Especially when we begin to get to see and know the real man beneath the mask Killian keeps in place to keep others from seeing the good man inside of him. Hook's redemption arc had begun in the second episode within season two's two part finale, titled... And Straight on 'Til Morning. To me... Hook/Killian is a very special character that I just love everything about. Especially now that he's changing and trying so hard to become a hero. And he's not just trying to be good for Emma like most fans of this show tend to think about him. He's trying to be so for himself as well. And he is growing more and more into the gentle and kind man that I do typically fall for. There are many sides to Killian, which is one of the many reasons why I just love him so much. And I will say that ever since falling in love with Hook's overall character throughout all of Once Upon a Time, I've begun to fall in love with the men in shows and movies who are broken, and who struggle to see the real good in themselves. Such as Killian most certainly struggles with very deeply. And I have just loved Hook ever since his introduction in The Crocodile, and have considered him my absolute favorite character right from the very beginning. So, I absolutely love the idea of Emma and Killian together, far over how I felt towards the idea of Emma being with Neal. Anyways... Thank you very much for such a great and fantastic reaction from you for this episode, that I have been so excited for, Travis! I really enjoyed watching The Jolly Roger over again with you. I was especially excited for one of my all time favorite twists in the ending of this episode, when Ariel in Storybrooke turns out to be Zelena all along! Hands down... This scene between Hook and Zelena is my favorite part of the episode! Although, I really do love every bit of the episode too! Especially every scene in which Hook is focused on as this episode's main character. And this ending with Zelena is one of the biggest twists in this show we've had in a long time. It's absolutely brilliant! Now... Many fans of this show feel Killian is only trying to be a good man just for Emma. And possibly a little for Henry too. They're very wrong. Emma has just reminded Killian that he is a good man, and that he's more than the pirate and villain he used to be. Killian wants to be a good man for himself like I mentioned above. And with this being said... I will go more into this momentarily... In regards to Hook not telling everyone of Zelena's threat towards Henry and Emma's parents... Should Hook have told them the truth? Yes, of course he should have. In spite of Zelena's threat. Although, he is definitely worried about Zelena finding out if he were to do so, and the consequences that might come from him doing so, of course. And knowing Hook like I do and his mindset at this point within the show, I believe Hook is afraid to tell them. Not so much because he's worried about people being angry with him or about Zelena's retaliation, but because he's mostly afraid that if Zelena were to kill Henry or Emma's parents because he went against Zelena's demands, etc... then their deaths would be his fault and Hook can no longer bare the guilt that would absolutely plague him should anyone die because of his wrongful actions during the missing year. He already feels guilty enough about his actions that nearly cost Prince Eric his life. And until this moment, Killian has been plagued by the guilt of Eric's death, having believed that Eric really had died because of his decision to save the Jolly Roger from Black Beard, over saving Eric from Black Beard. A part of Hook may be selfish to some people for keeping his secret, but I feel like he needs time to sort everything out in his mind before he decides what to do about his predicament. Although... After Zelena leaves him alone at the docks, Hook does go right to the Charmings' loft with the intention of speaking with David and Mary Margaret upon believing they would have been back by the time he got there, while he believes Emma would have still been out being trained in magic by Regina. So, I fully believe that he might have planned to at least tell them the truth, until he finds Emma and Regina there instead. Plus... If he were to tell either of them that Henry is now in danger because of his mistakes he made during the past year... Emma might be able to understand and come to forgive him in time for everything. But right now, a part of Emma already resents Hook for dragging her and Henry from their lives in New York and she wants nothing more than to return to New York with Henry, and to return to her fake life. So, she probably wouldn't take Hook's mistakes and confession very well. And Regina certainly wouldn't either because her son is now in danger because of him as far as she would see it. So, I really do understand why Hook doesn't tell anyone. And his guilt is certainly plaguing him very deeply. I hope all this makes sense. And that this explanation might help you to understand Hook's mindset. Yes... It's true that Hook has most definitely wronged Ariel within this episode, and he's known as much from the moment he made the wrong choice by choosing his ship over helping Ariel, as he knows it into the present day. Sadly, Hook is deeply plagued by guilt because of his decision to take back his ship from Black Beard in order to prove himself to be the most dastardly of pirates to sail the high seas. After all, Zelena taunts him how she recognizes his guilt that has been plaguing him ever since that day. You have to understand... Killian is broken hearted because he is so deeply in love with Emma, and during the missing year, he never believed he would ever see Emma again because she no longer remembered him, and she was lost to him. It definitely isn't Milah he's so broken by any longer. It's all about Emma for him now. They had been separated by the curse and realms. So, during the missing year... Killian only had his old life as the infamous Captain Hook to return to, because it is the only life he's known for over two hundred years. Being a pirate and his villainous reputation was all he had. And he needed to defend his reputation if he had any hope of surviving in their world anymore. I believe this is why he chooses his ship over saving Prince Eric. In order to prove to Black Beard, Black Beard's crew, as well as his own that he is still the villainous Captain Hook he used to be at all costs. Otherwise, none of the other men would follow him or respect him as their Captain any longer. They would have most likely tried to kill him even. And sacrificing the good inside of him that he's been trying to be for so long now ever since Emma's helped him to find the good in him again, has broken him even more than he already was upon losing Emma to Pan's curse. And sadly, Killian didn't think he could do anything to make up for what he had done, except allow Ariel to go free since it was all he could do to even attempt to make amends. It's so sad. And you can absolutely see the pain and despair in Hook's eyes when Ariel slaps him and reminds him of the monster he also believes himself to be in both the past and present. All of this proves that Killian isn't just trying to be good simply for Emma. But because he wants to be good for himself. Because he is a good man in spite of his mistakes. Now... I absolutely love, love, love the entire scene between Hook and Zelena in the end as Hook runs after the woman he believes to be Ariel in order to beg her forgiveness and to apologize to her for failing to help her! I so did not see this twist coming, and it is absolutely brilliant! Poor Killian. Zelena is so deliciously wicked. And she's scary. And I love her for it!! I absolutely love how she uses Killian swearing on his love for Emma so she could curse his lips. And I love that Killian reveals that she doesn't have the power to kill Emma without her powers being removed upon realizing that Zelena hasn't hurt Emma because she can't, which is why she has cursed his lips now. In order to force him to kiss Emma and remove her powers for her. What a brilliant plan! Of course Hook refuses to agree to do so and states he would tell Emma. Sadly, Zelena has now threatened Emma's family though. Which definitely puts Hook in a tight spot. And it's clear his guilt is killing him even more inside. We see this both inside Emma's apartment in the end, as well as outside of Granny's Diner while Hook watches Emma from afar, longing to be with her and yet knowing he can't be. Next... I love the overall backstory with Hook and the real Ariel, Smee, and then Black Beard too. It begins with Hook, Smee, and a few of Hook's crew robbing soldiers of their treasure with a brilliant trick. And we see that Hook is missing Emma, when Smee and his crew buy a bar wench for Hook for the night, yet he gives her more money to walk away and to lie to his crew about having slept with him so that they'll think he went through with it. To help keep his reputation intact, even though sleeping with wenches is no longer the kind of man he is. This moment shows just how good Hook has really come to be and that he's an honorable man. Then... Ariel appears behind him and knocks Hook to the ground before she places a knife to his throat, believing that it was Hook who kidnapped Prince Eric aboard the Jolly Roger. However, Hook recognizes the initials carved into the hilt of the blade and discovers that Black Beard somehow got hold of his ship, so Hook vows to get the Jolly Roger back. Regarding how Black Beard became in control of the Jolly Roger... It's because he somehow found the Jolly Roger before Hook could find her upon the ship's return to the Enchanted Forest after Pan's curse transported her there. If you remember back in episode twelve... New York City Serenade, Hook tells David that he is leaving them to go off to find his ship, knowing that the Jolly Roger was out there somewhere. Sadly, Black Beard clearly finds her first. The duel between Hook and Black Beard is amazing! I always have so much fun watching it, and of course Hook proves himself to be the better swordsman and to know his ship better than Black Beard. Sadly, Black Beard knows exactly how to goad Hook to fall into his own trap, as he forces Hook to choose between helping Ariel to save Prince Eric by giving up the Jolly Roger, or to prove himself to still be the ruthless pirate he used to be, yet isn't any longer by his refusal. Black Beard is a legendary and infamous pirate in numerous stories and tales just like Captain Hook is. So, it makes sense he would be a character brought into Once Upon a Time too. And the funny thing about his character... Black Beard actually looks a lot more like what Captain Hook normally looks like in every other movie with Hook as a character. Because of his clothes, facial hair, and long curly hair that Hook is always seen with in other movies with his character. I love it!! Talk about irony. And now... Ariel is definitely right that Hook is a good man, like she tells him as they were trekking through the woods and again aboard the Jolly Roger. Unfortunately, Hook doesn't believe so about himself and believes he has nothing without the Jolly Roger, and without being the ruthless pirate he used to be. So, he bitterly tells her he hasn't changed at all, and then chooses the Jolly Roger over saving Eric, and throws Black Beard overboard upon making him walk the plank. And Ariel slaps him for it, then tells him he has no heart, which in spite of his decision, it's clear such isn't true either. We see in Hook's face how much Ariel's words hurt him and how much his guilt has already begun to plague him. Next... I also love the scene between Hook and Emma in the beginning when Emma comes to him to ask him to look after Henry. He's so kind to Emma and happily agrees to look after her son for her while Emma goes with Regina to be trained in her magic. Hook has definitely grown fond of Henry too, and their relationship is so sweet. And then... Emma drops the news that she plans to leave Storybrooke with Henry to return to New York once they defeat Zelena, which Killian immediately protests to. He begs her to see sense and then tells her that as much as she might want to return to her old life, he's proof that she won't be able to, as Hook himself tried to go back to being a pirate again, yet couldn't no matter how much he tried to. And upon seeing his backstory during the missing year revealed, we now know why. And what's interesting... We now know Hook found the Jolly Roger and got her back during the missing year, yet his ship is once again missing, as Killian reveals to Smee that she's nowhere in Storybrooke. So, the question is... What's happened to the Jolly Roger now? :) By the way... We learned back in the fifth episode of this season... Good Form, that the Jolly Roger is the ship that once belonged to his brother back when it had been called the Jewel of the Realm. And when his brother died, Killian took it for himself and renamed it the Jolly Roger. So, we knew that Hook's ship was the Jolly Roger beforehand. And that this is how Hook came to be in possession of his ship. Next... I love that Emma asks Regina to train her in her magic, and the scene between them doing so is great too. I love how Regina breaks the bridge in order to force Emma to find the magic within her. And she does! Yet instead of retying the ropes like Regina expected her to, Emma raises the broken planks and floats back up to Regina on them. Marvelous! Emma is absolutely powerful and she's only just begun to develop her magic. Absolutely brilliant! I also love when Regina teases Emma about her and Hook yearning for one another, as she states she's seen Hook's yearning looks and doey eyes for her, and suspects that Emma has begun to feel the same for him, which Emma quickly denies. But I do think there's definitely something there that she's denying too. :) Oh... And I think it's funny how Hook teaches Henry how to cheat at dice with loaded dice in the beginning too, just before David and Mary Margaret come to him for help for Ariel. So cheeky. :) And lastly... I really enjoy the scenes with David, Mary Margaret, and Henry, after they take over looking after him for Hook. It's funny that David tries to be more fun for Henry than Hook by letting Henry drive. And it's funny how David tells Regina in the end that she needs to throw out some money for the mailboxes and street that they wrecked while doing so. I like how shocked Regina is that David had let Henry drive and let her anger towards David burst out, until she quickly hides why she is frustrated with David upon seeing Henry's confusion. Overall... What a fabulous episode!!!! I absolutely love this episode so much, because it's so centered around Hook. And Colin O'Donoghue as Hook/Killian is just absolutely phenomenal in it. :) Thank you again, so much, my dear friend!! I can't wait for your next reactions for the final episodes of season three!!! :) Thank you, Travis! Sincerely, Heidi

So, I don't know if you've seen the show Reba, but, if you have, that might be why Ariel looks familiar 😉
