You're listening to Once, episode 249, the unofficial podcast for ABC's TV show Once Upon a Time.

I'm Daniel J. Lewis.

I'm Aaron. And we just finished

watching this episode last right. So these are our initial reactions. We're going to be a bit

all over the place. And wow. Yeah, especially tonight we're going to be all over the place.

I'm going to be the first to say, yes, I think I cried a little from this episode.

I definitely had some emotion brewing. There were some major feels in this episode.

From the beginning, when they were kind of focusing on Robin and certain things that he was saying

and his saying to Regina, you are my future and I came into this without a plan.

I knew right away.

Robin's dead.

Oh, I never thought that.

And I didn't think Hook would stay dead.

Now, my theory proved wrong in the last episode when I thought it would be that the

Ambrosia was still testing Hook and he passed the test by letting him go.

And so the Ambrosio would bring him back from the dead.

But no, Zeus did.

Okay.

So one of the Greek gods brought him back. Okay. You're okay with that?

Well, if anyone is going to do it, a God doing it, okay, sure. Yeah, that's true. I was, like,

even at the end, like I had a lot of feelings in this episode, like said but even at the end like I thought it would have made more sense even with the laws of magic to bring Robin back because we didn't really know what happened and the crystal could have been misconstrued as this this thing and it would have been easy to just pop right away then bring him back but um i guess he's the one who's really dead and now hook is back again and i'm wondering if that's going to cause any resentment between emma and regina i hope not but um oh so sad yeah and just that moment the several moments in this episode that the goodbyes the emotions

the sister moment was really endearing after when they were both grieving together.
