Rumple and his son. Already done

Snow vs EQ. Already done

By the end of season 3 they already told the story they wanted to tell with this show. That's why I said in redux. They are doing a redux, and with Emma's ending coming, it has to be ending as that's a narrative style that some use (end with a redux that has a different outcome).
