Doesn't seem to make sense... Because maybe they suddenly got the idea to involve her and the other Camelot characters in the finale. A random theory of mine is that the main action of the finale takes place in Storybrooke for a change, rather than some adventure in the Enchanted Forest. My guess? Perhaps a large scale battle between the town of Storybrooke, Arthur, Zelena, Hades, Merida, Mulan, Dorothy, etc. That's a good theory, and would mix up the season finale from the one we've had the last two years. It is also possible that they decided to use Arthur, Gwen, or Merida to somehow do something that sets the events of Season 6 into motion. Just for an example, off the top of my head, someone finds a way to get Merida and the Camelotians back to FTL. While they are packing up everything, including the chest with the treasures from Camelot, the chest is accidently knocked over and the contents fall out. The person who knocks it over quickly puts everything back in it, but misses a bottle that roled further away. They all leave. Later that night, an Arab SB resident finds the bottle and picks it up. The resident is Aladdin. In the bottle is the genie Jafar. Boom, Season 6 set up.
