Once Upon a Time Recap: Does Hook Leave the Underworld?
By Jim Donnelly | May 2nd, 2016Welcome to the official Once Upon a Time recap for Season 5, Episode 20 “Firebird” (original airdate May 1, 2016). Hades (Greg Germann) turns to the heroes to ask for help with getting Zelena (Rebecca Mader) back from Rumplestiltskin (Robert Carlyle) and Peter Pan. In return, he offers to take all their names off their tombstones. However, when Hook (Colin O'Donoghue) is still unable to leave, he and Emma (Jennifer Morrison) must journey into the depths of the Underworld. Does Hook leave the Underworld? What's in store for Emma and Hook and the rest of the heroes? Let's get to all the highlights with this week's Magical Moments!
Gold’s Kiss Fails: Gold’s attempt to wake up Belle with a kiss fails. When Pan comes to Gold to complete their deal, he suggests he putting Belle in Pandora’s box – in exchange for a heart, of course. See how this deal went down.
Cruella’s Plan: While Henry writes everyone’s unfinished business, Cruella announces that she will be in charge of the Underworld. She and the Blind Witch lock the heroes in the library to prevent them from leaving. Watch them spring their trap.
Hades Leaves the Underworld: While the heroes are stuck in the library, Hades, Zelena and her baby are at the portal. Zelena is concerned about leaving Regina behind, but Hades convinces her that the heroes will get there in time. Watch this clip.
Hook & Emma Say Goodbye: When Emma gets into the elevator, Hook reveals he’s not going back up with her – he’s staying behind in the Underworld. This is goodbye. Watch this heartbreaking moment.
Pan Meets His Fate: Gold puts a heart into Pan, but it’s not Robin’s. It’s a heart filled with the River of Souls water, which turns Pan into dust. Gold says goodbye to his Papa – this time, it’s for good. See Pan's demise.
The Heroes Escape the Underworld: Along with Belle in Pandora’s box, Gold walks into the portal; not far behind are the heroes. Regina, Henry and Robin head in, followed by David and Emma. The portal closes up after them and the clock tower turns to 8:16 and ticks.
