I'll say perhaps some people forgot. Perhaps 509 was such a killer on this episode. And suck it CS fans! (Kidding! We'd have to look at the half hour replay.) As someone who enjoyed CaptainSwan, I am disgusted by the turn the story took. Who in the writers staff thought, human sacrifice would translate as romantic? Romantic would have been allowing Hook to die peacefully, in that field of flowers.... not making him force Emma, into believing he is a rabid animal.

The combination of 5.09 and Thanksgiving weekend probably did not help much, either.
