I'm guessing he's the 5B villain? (though the article about it seems like he's only appearing in flashbacks, so.....). I'm happy that they'll finally address this, but I'm wondering what's going to happen at the end of 5A that would make it relevant for him to make an appearance. Like I assumed when A&E said that they'd pursue more of Hook's history in 5B that they would bring his parents up in his one centric episode of the season, but in 5x11? That's kind of weird, unexpected, and possibly unnecessary if he's not a major recurring character for the backhalf lol. And I think they said that season 5 overall would be an Emma thing too with the repercussions of her being the DO, so I'm really not sure where they're headed. I'm not *too* keen on the idea of an underworld arc like everyone is predicting though - not so fairytale-ish in my opinion and everyone going there to save Emma (or whoever) seems like it'd be 5A 2.0. Or 3A 3.0.
