History
In the Wish Realm, Smee lives a similar life to his counterpart up until the point that the Evil Queen fails to cast the Dark Curse, serving as Captain Hook's first mate. As Hook tells Smee and the rest of his crew to prepare the Jolly Roger for the curse, the Evil Queen appears and reveals that her magic was taken by Prince Charming and Snow White so she cannot cast the curse and requests passage on their ship before Snow and Charming come after her. Hook complies, particularly upon learning that the Evil Queen knows of magic in another realm that could help him defeat Rumplestiltskin. Smee accompanies Hook through this realm as they search for a tower and attempt to navigate the area with a map that the Queen provided. When they find the tower, Hook climbs it while Smee waits outside. Hook emerges later and leads Smee to a secret garden to find the flower which can defeat Rumplestiltskin. The captain attempts to use the power of music to find the flower but only succeeds in awakening a monstrous garden gnome, which chases Hook and Smee, attempting to kill them. As Smee is cornered, he begs Hook to try a different song. Hook's second song reveals the flower's location and the gnome crumbles when Hook grabs it, sparing Smee. Smee questions Hook on the song he used and discovers that it was a lullaby sung to him by his mother. They prepare to return to the Jolly Roger but Hook tells Smee to go ahead as he wishes to return to the tower and save its captive first. However, Hook is delayed, so Smee and the rest of his crew are left to entertain an impatient Evil Queen. The next morning, when Hook does finally arrive, he gives command of the ship to Smee and reveals that he will be staying in the realm without pursuing his revenge on Rumplestiltskin. ("Eloise Gardener")
Some years later, Hook returns to the Wish Realm to ask for Rumplestiltskin's help in freeing his daughter, Alice, from the tower she's been locked in. He meets up with Smee at a tavern while searching for Captain Ahab, who is in possession of Maui's fish hook, an item he needs for freeing Alice, and Smee watches as the two pirates place a bet on dice rolls: if Hook wins, he gets the fish hook and if Ahab wins, he gets the Jolly Roger. Fortunately, Hook wins, but Ahab taunts him as he leaves. Later, when Hook challenges Ahab to a duel, Smee attends. Both men are injured, but while Ahab takes the bullet to the chest, Hook is merely scraped along the arm, so Smee congratulates him on his victory, however, Hook realizes he has let his daughter down by caring too much about proving his honor and immediately leaves to return to her.
