TEXT: -[Storybrooke]- (Hook's ship is anchored at the docks of Storybrooke. Seeing that the coast is clear, Hook jumps off the boat. He then proceeds to assist Cora off the ship.) Hook: Well, my dear Cora, this is where we shall part ways. Thank you for everything. It's time for me to skin my crocodile.
