There was a large number of Storybrooke residents gathered at the cemetery. They all stood around Archie's casket and tombstone. They were all broken hearted and teary eyed, none of them were ready or wanted to say goodbye to their dear friend. They were completely oblivious to the fact they were being watched by Lily, who partially hid herself behind a tree.
ARCHIBALD HOPPER Friend and Conscience
Mary Margaret stood next to David as she read out a eulogy.
"Some of us knew him as Archie or Doctor Hopper. Others...we knew him as Jiminy. No matter what name we called him, we all knew him as a true friend. And even though he may be gone now, he will forever live on inside us. Reminding us to be our best selves, to do the right thing and to always fight for what we believe in. So, let's not think of today as a goodbye, just as a way of saying...Archie, we will always be listening."

Once Mary Margaret had completed her eulogy, Lily had left the cemetery and returned to the Jolly Roger. She had briefly entertained the idea of staying for the full service, but knew revealing her presence would put her brother's plan in jeopardy. She had made her way down to the lower deck where she found Killian interrogating Archie, who was no longer gagged but was still bound and tied up.
"Shhh." Killian said quietly as he stood in front of the terrified cricket.
Archie looked over at Lily. "Help me, please!" He begged.
"Don't look at her." Killian said, grabbing Archie's attention back. "As your patient, the Dark One must've told you all manner of secrets. Where is his dagger?"
"I-I don't know anything about a-a dagger." Archie said, stumbling over his words. He was so scared at that moment that he could barely think straight, let alone speak without messing up.
"You don't? Are you sure? It's his biggest weakness as far as I'm aware." Killian paused for a moment. "Unless there are others." He crouched down in front of Archie. "Tell me, doctor, does he have any other weaknesses?"
Archie didn't say a word. He kept his mouth shut and continued to look at Killian in fear.
"Very well." Killian smirked. "I've always wanted to dissect a cricket." He pressed the point of his hook against Archie's forehead, and gently continued to add pressure until the cricket squirmed to get away.
"No! Wait. Wait, please!" He begged.
"Ah..." Killian smiled, taking his hook away. "That's more like it. No, tell me, cricket, what is his weakness?"
