I think Adam and Eddy do know (roughly) the final story arc for the show. But like they have said, they don't have a firm grasp of each individual arc before that, and they are flexible to do different things. So I think they will continue to do different things until ABC tells them they would like to have a final season, which then Adam and Eddy will execute there plan for the final story arc, which will basically tie up everything remaining. Unlike Farerb though, this doesn't bother me. This is the nature of tv shows, they don't have every season specifically planned out from the beginning. And thanks to the nature of Once (that it pulls from a variety of different classic stories), you could keep it running for a long time and still have fairly interesting arcs.
