Actually, I think transporting to Camelot was a good move, and at least that transport does not appear to involve any amnesia.

As for the return trip, I'll reserve judgment until I see the episode (and maybe the entire Arc). We knew that they wouldn't stay out of Storybrooke for the entire arc (I think we saw what happened with Neverland).

One thing that interests me is that it takes DARKNESS to power the Apprentices Wand. And that Regina is no longer Dark enough to qualify. Is this a setup for either Zelena or a restored Rumple to assume the mantleship of the Apprentice? Or is it possibly a setup that the Apprentice was, himself, the first Dark One, and the only one until Rumple to break free from the Darkness, and setting the stage for Emma to become the Apprentice?
