Production Notes

 * According to Colin O'Donoghue, the older version of Wish Hook is one of his favorite versions of Hook to play.
 * Showrunner Edward Kitsis also described old Hook as his favorite part of "Tougher Than the Rest" and one of his top ten favorite scenes in the whole series.
 * It takes approximately three hours to do Wish Hook's makeup.
 * Wish Hook became a storytelling device for Season Seven because Jennifer Morrison left the show after Season Six, and the writers felt that separating Emma and Hook, whether it was for the season or forever, was not what the audience deserved. They discussed the various options and ramifications, and felt that allowing Wish Hook into the new story gave them the ability to explore the character in different ways.
 * Colin O'Donoghue said that Rogers feels "a sense of loss, and he doesn't know what it is, what's missing".
