Cora is about 50 or 60, as we're supposed to believe Rose McGowan plays her in her 20's (she's gorgeous, but she doesn't look a day under 32.) and Regina is about 38. So if Cora is, let's say, 58, then theoretically her mother could still be alive, presumably at around the age of 74 (remember, 18 years old made you a spinster in those days, most girls were married off by 12. So having Cora at 16 is a fair midpoint). Or we could even say this is a flashback between Cora and her mother while Regina was still young, so Cora would be about 48 and her mother 64.

Or maybe I'm overthinking it and it's just about Cora. But I think it's going to go deeper. On the contrary, I was shocked when I found out Rose McGowan was as old as she is. I thought she was like mid-20's. True. But since McGowan could probably pay Cora from early 20's all the way to early 40's, with Rose turning into Barbara somewhere inbetween 45 and 50, I doubt this episode would deal with Cora's own mother as I first suspected.

It's definitely going to be Cora meeting Zelena, if you ask me.
