Wasn't the entire Coven at the site where they met and the Curse was cast when Alice was with Hook and Robin? And doesn't Alice want nothing to do with her mom and have no relationship with her?

When was it confirmed that one of the witches will be related to THM? They had seven members of the Coven at the casting of the curse. One was Drizella, now replaced by Anastasia. But they needed Regina to be the eighth, which theoretically implies they were down a member. Gothel could try to recruit Alice. When did they say they needed Regina to be the eighth? They already had eight, they had seven members plus Gothel which is eight. They only needed her to cast the Curse, not to be the eighth member and invited Zelena. There was only seven. Five hooded witches, Drizella and Gothel.

Also Drizella flats out stated Regina would be the 8th ingredient as in the eighth witch to help cast the curse. Uhm... no, I doubt it, she was referring to the ingredients seen in 1x02 during the casting of the curse, the 8th ingredient was supposed to be the heart of the thing you love the most.

The 8th ingredient was magic from a witch who had crushed the heart of the thing she loved most, which obviously was in place of actually crushing a heart.
