‘Once Upon A Time’ season 6’s episode 12, titled “Murder Most Foul,” is set to follow Hook as he agrees to help David in hopes of proving himself before proposing to David’s daughter, Emma. Meanwhile, things may not be going well for Regina and Robin when his dark side emerges.

The synopsis for “Murder Most Foul” posted on TV Guide reads, “David (Josh Dallas) searches for the truth about his father's death, and he seeks Hook's (Colin O’Donoghue) help in this endeavor.

In the upcoming episode, David is set to enlist Hook’s help in uncovering the truth behind his father’s death. Hook will agree to assist him as he is adamant to prove himself to David before he takes his next step in his relationship with David’s daughter, Emma.

According to Christian Post, Hook is planning to propose to Emma but he needs to let David know that he is more than just an ordinary bandit in order to get his blessing.
