As far as Hook flashbacks go this is either the third or fourth best one (After the Crocodile, Poor Unfortunate Soul and possibly The Jolly Roger)

I think Bridgette Hales is good writer, seeing as both this and her other episode 'Sisters' were all right. I'm going to attribute the mediocre parts of this episode to Andrew Chambliss lol.

Likes:

-Screen time for Henry

-Bonding with Henry + Hook

-Screentime for Belle

-Connection between Liam II and Hook

-The Mysterious Island being the LoUS

-Aladdin and Jasmine

Dislikes:

-Okay like what is Zelena doing. I have no idea what her motive is and she really isn't getting enough screentime

-EVIL QUEEN x GOLD. EWWW. EWWW. EWWWWW PLEASE DON'T. THEY HAVE NOT SHOWN INTEREST IN EACHOTHER IN 5 WHOLE SEASONS OF THE SHOW. REGINA SCOFFS AT THE IDEA OF 'HAVING A CHILD' WITH HIM IN 3x09. SO STOP TRYING TO MAKE THIS HAPPEN.

-What is the Evil Queen actually doing. Like what's her goal here? If she wanted Snow's heart why didn't she just rip it out in 6x01 before anyone knew she was in town rather than waste time grooming Zelena and Hyde, Sending the Count after Snow and Charming to defeat Regina, trying to prevent Emma from saving Cinderella, and rupturing the Charmings in the last two episodes, as well as telling Charming about his father. It doesn't make sense.

-Not enough minor character screentime. I want more Granny, Leroy, Mother Superior, and Dwarfs.

-Apparently the Dark Curse was soooo easy to escape, just Snow and Charming were idiots?

Overall a good ep
