rehooked
Fastened once more
Rehooked means hooked again—whether literally catching something on a hook a second time or figuratively getting someone drawn back into something they'd escaped: After years clean, one bad night rehooked him on gambling.
The word often implies a return to addiction or obsession: The sequel rehooked fans who'd moved on.
