Why did it have to be Hook? That I don't know; probably because Emma's memories being erased and altered, she only remembers that Neal is the guy that left her and won't let him talk to her (although why a perfect "stranger" like Hook would be a better choice, no clue). Hook is the only main character, who can prove to Emma that fairytales are real. He is a one-handed pirate, and that can be used to his advantage.
