I loved the flashbacks! Though I have to say I find hard to believe that the Wicked Witch, who, according to Rumple, was more even more powerful than Cora, was overpowered by this Hilda witch. And Zelena had her necklace, which boosts her power!

It's like the Evil Queen, who was pretty powerful in season 1, but then she was downgraded in later seasons. I'm guessing that Hilda was just stronger (or just smarter). She broke Zelena's amulet.

Plus, Hilda had to be strong or Gothel really was slacking on the Witches. I guess Gothel heard that Hilda beat the WW once and was like "I need that kind of power".
