Okay, so the Underworld... I get that Emma wants to save Hook because she's upset his sacrifice was for nothing now that Gold is the Dark One once again. Yet the SwanFire in me is somewhat bitter, like, "Great, so he gets to come back, but not Neal". On the other hand, I understand Neal remained dead because he died for true and valiant reasons, with nothing to scar his legacy and sacrifice. But as a plot device for someone dead to come back... I don't know. I'm not too enthusiastic about it.. Neal sacrificed himself so his father could live and help the heroes, instead his father gives shit about it and almost destroyed the woman his son loved. Neal died in vain and it is known. Rumple slipped and hit his head on the forgetting rock. Knowing Rumple, he'd sacrifice a random peasant for Neal if he could trade someone's life. But Rumple and Emma are respecting Neal's heroism (while Neal is an unpopular character) and Emma isn't respecting Hook's heroism and plea to let him go (because Hook is a popular character). Neal is not an unpopular character. Everyone on Twitter, Tumblr and Facebook is up in arms that no source has announced Michael Raymond James' return. Hell, look at this very forum in 5B spoiler threads. Everyone's also fuming that Dylan Schmidt is the one who's been seen on set instead of MRJ. Because Rumple never gave a shit about Neal, but he did with Baelfire, Bae's actor is the one who's returning and not Neal's. Kind of like how Malcolm was the one who died, but we're seeing Peter 'cause it makes for better television. Neal is unpopular, Bae isn't. Malcolm isn't popular, but Peter Pan is. Guess what XD

You saying Neal is unpopular doesn't make it so. Just read through the 5B threads, that alone should be enough to prove it, since everyone wants Neal. Even people who hated him and SwanFire want him back.
