I'm perfectly fine with whatever they throw at me. I respect if they keep Bae dead because Rumple respects that, but as a writer or an astute person can recognize the importance of Bae to the narrative. Now it seems they cover him up with naming the baby Neal and never mentioning him often and even then only in episode 1 of 4a. This is what some fans debate. It isn't technically my stance just a good stance founded by sound logic.

Like for example, (I don't partake in ships) CaptainSwan would have been more entertaining if Neal stuck around and Emma actively chose Hook over Neal, or Emma's feelings for/ relationship with Walsh playing a role in her newfound relationship. Instead their relationship plot was Cursed Lips and keeping secrets, Cursed Hand and keeping secrets, Accursed past and keeping secrets. How many secrets does Hook keep from Emma that he needs to resolve, it happens every half season and why does Hook have trust issues? None of that is explored and I don't even like Hook. CaptainSwanners, comment on this or your take on it? It is slow burn, but the plot is repetitive at best.
