In the Name of the Brother is the 12th episode of season two on ABC’s Once Upon a Time. It will air Jan. 20, 2013 at 8:00 p.m., ET.
In the Name of the Brother we see Dr. Whale help mend Hook’s injuries and perform a surgery on a stranger who crashed their car when driving into Storybrooke. However, some of the Storybrooke residents are afraid this stranger could have seen the magic that resides in this small town. If he did see magic, the townspeople are afraid he would reveal it to the world. They feel if this stranger dies it would be the best solution. (Harsh?)
In the mean time, Mr. Gold attempts to reunite with Belle. Cora tries to reunite with her daughter, Regina.
In the fairytale land that was, Victor tries frantically to prove to his father that he can bring the dead back to life.

Colin O’Donoghue (Hook) became a series regular for the last 9 episodes of season 2 — before ABC ordered 9 more. I am growing increasingly sure that Colin O’Donohgue’s Hook dies in episode 13. At Vancityfilming.com, look for an article entitled “Once Upon A Time to get out of a Hole”. Jorge Garcia (the giant) will be there too. He kills Hook.
How do you know it’s for Hook? Couldn’t it be the townspeople trying to make a grave for the “stranger” or probably Dr. Whale/Frankenstein’s brother?
Or they said a beloved character disappears. Maybe they find the character in the hole?
