Ok, It's going to be interesting, to say the least. I think that Emma knew perfectly well what would happen by tethering Hook. I think Regina even said that tethering Hook would make him a second dark one, and Emma's response was a tragic "I Don't Care!". It was in this action that the Darkness completed it's hold on her (That was her price, and we see that at the end when she is transformed from the White gown and cape to the black leather). and Hook being shown coming from the vault of the dark one can only mean that he is tethered with the same darkness as Emma. and his lack of control over his anger is going to make him vulnerable to quickly going down the dark one path.

Given some of the anger that we saw from Hook toward Merlin in the previous episode, I have a bad feeling about what is coming next.
