Read on for the scoop on Captain Swan, Peter Pan’s introduction, angry mermaids and much more.
• The season premiere opens with a flashback to 11 years ago, during which Emma faces an emotionally conflicting moment that showcases some of Jennifer Morrison’s best work on the series.
• As we told you, Greg and Tamara really should have asked the Home Office more questions about their mission.
• Believing that Neal is dead, Emma and Hook — who notes that he spent quite some time with Baelfire — drink to their fallen friend/loved one. While this scene is touching, there’s plenty of flirty ones between them, too, thanks to Hook, who seems to be winning over more than one member of the Charming family.
• Mermaids are mean! And liars! So basically, they’re fishy mean girls.
