I'm not exactly sure why Hook finding Emma in NY automatically makes him a rival against Neal for her affections. Sure, he did try to kiss her, but that's Hook. I fail to see how the scene in any way is setting up Hook as the one with the advantage to getting Emma's affections when she doesn't even know who the heck he is. The reason I bring this up is because your title "Hook vs. Neal" gives me that impression. And he did come to NY to ask her to come back for her family's sake. So how is that have anything to do with the whole "versus" thing? Hook is not their enemy.
