Hop aboard! Once Upon a Time is set to give Hook the majority of the screen time in this week’s episode, “The Jolly Roger.” Check out the latest stills here!
This week’s episode of Once Upon a Time answers more questions about the year that was, as Ariel and Hook team up to find a lost prince. Earlier this season, Ariel and Prince Eric started their happily ever after in Storybrooke, but the curse separates the couple once again. In the year that was, Hook faces Blackbeard (Charles Mesure) to fight for control of his lost ship and hopefully find Prince Eric aboard.
Check out the images of Ariel’s sturdy sea legs as she enlists his help to take back the Jolly Roger from their common nemesis.
Although Blackbeard appears blurred in the background, the classic pirate emits evilness!
“The Jolly Roger” will hopefully provide more insight to how Hook’s journey to New York came about. Regardless, the swashbuckling scenes offer a welcome break from the wickedness brewing in Storybrooke.
Synopsis ‘The Jolly Roger’
Ariel returns to Storybrooke and pleads with Hook to help her find Prince Eric, who never returned to the town when the new curse was invoked. Emma agrees to let Regina teach her how to use magic so that she can help defeat Zelena, and Mary Margaret and David try to prove that they can be just as much fun as Hook is with Henry — who thinks they are boring. Meanwhile, in Fairy Tale Land during the past year, an angry Ariel confronts Hook over her missing Prince Eric, who she assumes was kidnapped and possibly killed by the swarthy pirate. But when Hook confesses that the Jolly Roger has been stolen and Eric is most likely the thief’s prisoner, Ariel unknowingly provides him with a clue as to who the culprit is, and Hook – with Ariel in tow – goes off in search of his ship.
