I really hope they bring Neal back, even if only for a short time. After all, Emma, Gold, and Henry will all be there, they can't pass up a family reunion like that. Plus, I heard Neal's actor has been hanging around set, and that it is confirmed that young baelfire will appear. I think they may be preparing to bring him back. They are in the underworld, after all, and Neal is dead.

Honestly, I never liked hook in the first place, he was a terrible character, and I could never see him with Emma. With a character like Emma, you need someone who is not like her, who balances her out, something Neal could do. Hook could not. So honestly, I feel the writers are doing a terrible job "selling" their relationship, and that Hook should stay dead, because Hook and Emma's relationship felt so fake, and so unreal, that I can't stand it.
