S8 E2 Truest Love:

Underbrooke:

"So I have to get a hair of the product of true love. But my own true love?" Robin asked Facilier.

"That's right," Facilier responded.

"So how will I get it, or how to get to Storybrooke."

"I can send you, but only for a small amount of time, and no one will be able to see you. Oh, and the realms are united now."

"So when do I go?"

"Now," and with a swoosh of his hand and an eye roll, Facilier had transported Robin Hood to the United Realms.

Storybrooke, Maine:

Emma knocked on the door to the room Esmeralda was renting at Granny's.

"Can I help you with anything?" Emma asked as she opened the door and walked in.

"Oh, yes, hello. Can you show me what to do? I don't really get any of this... stuff," Esmeralda responded.

"Of course."
Just then, Killian walked in and looked around. First at Esmeralda and then at Emma.

"Hello love," he said.
"Oh, uh, hi" Emma said as she walked over and gave him a kiss on the cheek

"So, you two are in wedlock?" Esmeralda said and looked at them. They both looked up at her, back at each other, and back at her.

"Yes, we are married, why?" Emma said and looked at Esmeralda with a confused expression.

"It's just, nothing" Esmeralda smiled as she said this, but it looked like a fake smile.

"Okay? Killian, can I talk to you in the hallway?"

"Yes, of course, love," They walked out to the hallway together and shut the door behind them.

"Why is she so concerned with our marriage? Is there something going on that I don't know about?"

"No, nothing at all. It's just, our past."

"Your past? What do you mean? What past?"

Regina's House:

Roland has stayed at Regina's house since the realms have become united. He is 8 now, soon to be 9.
Robin was aware he is not visible to anyone, but cannot walk through walls or anything like that. He walked up to what he assumed to be Roland's room and entered. It was late at night and Roland was sleeping peacefully in his bed.

"He looks so peaceful," Robin muttered. He walked over and plucked a piece of hair from Roland's head, "I hope we will be reunited soon"

Robin wandered around the house and found Regina's room. Many memories made in that room, some not as innocent as others.
He walked in the room and Regina was sitting on her bed, reading a book. He could make out the front of the book just barely. It read "The Tales Of Robin Hood". He smiled and wished that she could see him, that they could hug and kiss and live happily ever after. Maybe soon, he thought and walked out.

He found his way to the lake that held the opening to the underworld. A image of Facilier appeared and told him to dip his foot in the water when he had the hair. Robin did so and was transported to Facilier's throne room.

"So you have the hair, I see" Facilier said as he swirled his chair around to face Robin

"Yes, right here, may I go home now?"

"Ah, no, this won't work! This is just a hair of your genes, not true love!"
