Emma was the one who was too scared of Hook's love to reject the darkness, then Hook got himself stabbed, and Emma was the one who chose to make Hook Dark Two. They then screwed more stuff up forcing Emma to jump back to Storybrooke and wipe memories. So this was all CS's fault. Why was Emma getting all pissy at Regina earlier this season? I think this is further indication that they changed paths midseason to be more about CS. Regina being the Savior storyline was scraped. Emma's no eyebrow dark one look was scrapped and you can tell that so many scenes JMO produced have been cut due to the rewrites. (Personally, Hook and Emma not being in Dark One makeup is too not piss fans off making their pretties uglified).

We were suppose to see Snow/Charming/Henry fighting to save Emma but that has totally went to the wayside. We were suppose to see Emma's inner struggles about being an orphan and giving up her son and only seeing her son after 10 years. Oh no. This Emma is long and gone. Though Emma never expressed romantic interest being at the forefront in her mind, now she is all about pirate love. Long lost parents and son are no longer relevant.

Oh yeah, nobody is mentioning the emotional blackmail by suicide as being romantic????

-Pro Things actually happened in this episode. I don't really mind Emma's apperance her evilness as the Dark One is most important, but I do wish Dark Emma looked a little more like this

Like a pale white face maybe something similar to Black Swan
