Pretty sure, you are talking about Game of Thones.... but that would hardly be a spoiler.

Honestly, the only realistic way to progress Hook's arc, is for Emma to be killed off. Since Emma was originally intended for the requel, it is her absence that needs to be explained. Not why Hook, Regina, and Rumple no longer live in Storybrooke. Besides, the real question is if Hook was cursed, or if he is just pretending to be Officer Rogers.
