Be careful what you wish for and joke about. I've seen more than one thing that was said as a joke turn around and become reality.

And quite honestly, done right, that would not be a bad story. Sure, just shove the dagger into a rock. But WHERE is the rock? How do they get there? What sorts of obstacles will they encounter? Does it have to be Emma, or can anyone shove the dagger in? I don't know if you get a whole arc, but you could easily get an episode, maybe two, for this action. I expect the uneventful and un shocking TLK to save the day! Could just do that. Summon her, then kiss her! Group Kiss and then solved! But they'll find someway to beat around the bush. Unless the TLK just forces the darkness out of the vessel instead. I always wondered why true love's kiss didn't free Rumple from it since Belle's supposed to be his true love but of course she said power was his true love. Agree the way you present it HM the rock and dagger could make a good part of the story. I was wondering this morning whether the writers had the Jolly Roger returned to Hook this season, so at least part of the gang travels in it to find Merlin?
