Not the first person to think of this idea either. Baelfire tells Hook about the Dark One's Dagger sounds very plausible. Especially considering that Cora only knew of the dagger after meeting Hook (that we know of). However, Hook does not know of the dagger when he breaks into Belle's cell and interrogates her. So the dagger knowledge is fairly new to Hook. That fact kinda blows the whole Baelfire theory out of the water.

I still want to know how Hook got to Manhattan and Emma and crews location so fast.
