Meanwhile, in Regina's vault.
"Well, I say we just slit her throat right now," Cruella said to Maleficent and Gold as Regina lay on the floor in her vault. "Get it over with." She shrugged like it was not a big deal.
"No." Gold quickly shut down her suggestion.
"Well, if it's too messy for you, darling, Mal can incinerate her--"
"We're doing nothing of the sort." Gold spat at Cruella. "We do not need Dream to die from using her magic to avenge her mother and risk our plans." He added with a scoff.
"She'll never help us." Maleficent sighed, looking at Gold.
"Of course, she will. She just doesn't know it yet. I have something that, the moment she sees it, will make Regina do my bidding forever." Gold smirked to himself.
"Hey."
Emma looked up from the page as she sat on the bench by the docks. But it was not her parents. It was not Dream. It was not even Neal. It was Hook.
"I'm just gonna need some time." Emma sighed, glancing at Hook, who sighed.
"August is awake. Your parents and Dream are with him." Hook said as Emma quickly stood up.
"Is he--" She went to ask.
"He's gonna be fine. Your friend is gonna be fine." He smiled at her, when she sighed, hugging him. Hook was a little surprised, but hugged Emma back.
"Why did my parents send you?" Emma asked as Hook chuckled a bit.
"Well, they didn't think you'd listen to them. Or Neal..." Hook said, pulling out of the hug as Emma sighed.
"They were right." Emma sighed, looking at Hook. "So, why didn't Dream come? I assumed she would--"
"She wanted me to come. She said that she felt it would be best for her to stay with the babies..." Hook smiled a bit.
"So, she doesn't care about any of the past? Doesn't fear anything that could happen?" Emma asked with a small smile.
"Far from it... I fear that if she worried about anything, she would incinerate us both." Hook chuckled, motioning for Emma to walk with him.
"Right..." Emma chuckled, walking with Hook. "How are things going with her?" Emma asked with a small smile.
"Great... If we can get this Author to help keep Dream alive for longer than a few months... I don't know how I could live without her... Or even the thought of raising three babies on my own." Hook sighed, looking ahead of them.
"We'll figure out a way to say Dream... My job as the savior is to make sure everyone has their happy endings. That includes you and Dream." Emma smiled at him as Hook looked at her and nodded.
"Aye... I hope it does." Hook smiled at her.
Regina's vault.
"Now that you're so confident Regina's taken care of, isn't it time we took care of my needs?" Maleficent asked, looking at Gold through the mirror as he looked at the pictures in Regina's vault. It was on little Dream on Graham's lap. Dream holding Henry the first day she brought him home. And then, there were a few pictures with the twins. Regina and Dream holding each of the twins. Dream and Hook with the babies. And then, the babies laying in their bassinet.
