Once Upon a Time Relationship Update: Who's in Love and Whose Romance Is in Danger

Updated on May 17, 2015 at 10:00 AM

Once Upon a Time ended its fourth season this week with a trip to a bizarro world where the heroes are villains and vice versa. Thankfully, it's like it was all a bad dream — or is it? Back in Storybrooke, when Rumpelstiltskin's black, black heart is failing, the apprentice releases all the darkness in it. After a minor debate about it, Emma sacrifices herself to accept it and essentially become the new Dark One. But not before she says something very sweet to Hook! In fact, these romantic moments are the best part of the two-hour finale, and while the journey through Heroes and Villains doesn't further the story much, the finale does move a few relationships forward. Sort of. So, who's what to whom now? Let's check in.

Robin Hood and Regina

Status: Totally in love

After a season of Zelena trickery, these two have found their way back together. Even though Zelena is pregnant with his child in a cell somewhere, they have resolved to deal with it like it's just an expensive cable bill and not an actual child.

Belle and Rumple

Status: Back in love . . . sort of

Well, after the book is closed on Heroes and Villains, Belle rushes to Rumple's side to find him near death. They have this sweet talk about how she doesn't really love Will (sorry bro) and how she has always loved him. Alas, it looks like Rumple's dark heart removal hastens his death, making this reunion short-lived — but come on, this is Storybrooke. He won't die (right?).

Snow and Charming

Status: Power couple status back on

Their Heroes and Villains depiction is actually hilarious — Snow's hair looks like she stepped out of There's Something About Mary and Charming has opted for tasteful guyliner. But to our relief, everything is back to normal when they return to Storybrooke, including their picture-perfect relationship.

Maleficent and Lily's Father

Status: ???

Lily has decided that now that she's found her mom, she wants to meet her dad next. The only problem? She's the result of a dragon one-night stand! Getting that visual out of your head won't be easy. But now we're kind of excited for this next mystery to be cleared up. Is it another famous character, or someone we haven't met yet?

Emma and Hook

Status: It's really complicated

And now, the relationship update you've been waiting for. The show's greatest love story reaches a pinnacle — they finally say the L-word to each other — but then it takes several steps back. See, Emma is the savior . . .

And decides to take the evil injection for the team, despite Hook's begging. Let the record show: I would not have left that face.

Maybe they can have some dark flirting next season, though?

And before we forget about this show for the Summer, please relive this moment.
