I like the idea that it's from Neverland and everything because I've noticed somewhat of a pattern that I've pointed out once or twice before.

Regina's entire plan for revenge was just a fraction of Rumple's plan to find Bae, right?

Well, we've learned that we may get more about Emma's life pre-Storybrooke, and if there's anything the show has taught us thus far, coincidences aren't just coincidences.

So, I've come to think that all the coincidences in Rumple's plan were really Pan's work in his grand scheme to get Henry to him for whatever he wants him for. The book, it being a huge part of that, could definitely fit well as one of Pan's little intrusions into things.
