So Regina says she can't hold it any longer... But then EMMA comes in and helps because she has magic (the strongest because she holds the powers of true love) and can diffuse the fail-safe, saving the town. Neal will be back in Storybrooke next season... Actually, The episode ends with the town looking like it gets blown up but in season 3, it doesn't.

I don't think that destroying SB would necessarily mean the end of the show, but I do think it'll survive the failsafe in some way. I quite like the theory that Emma will come in and help Regina - that would make sense! I don't think Neal ends up back in SB - not for a while anyway. I can see Emma and Neal having to repeat her parents' lament of always having to find each other! Now they've declared their love it would be too easy for Emma to have her happy ending, she's got to work for it! ;)  I think next season will be them in different worlds/realms having to find each other.
