What's this, then? Actual dialogue from the Underworld in "The Brothers Jones":

Hook: "I'm the problem. Emma, you were the Dark One for six weeks and only gave in to the darkness out of love. I plunged in headfirst in a second for revenge! I was weak!" Emma: "Not in the end". Hook: "You raised the bar very high, Swan. The fact is, I don't measure up." Emma: "Let me be the judge of that. If you didn't, would I have come all the way down here to try to save you?" Hook: "That's my point. I'm not sure I deserve saving."

A generic apology to cross from the list and then act as if nothing happened. Merlin wasn't revenge and his name wasn't even mentioned once, they went back into calling him the sorcerer as if it's a different character.
