I have my own theories as to how it could all play out. According to the trailer and Zalena's plot to travel back in time to when Cora abandoned her it is safe to say that Hook and Emma got sucked into the time portal and ended up in the Echanted Forrest but at the point of time in which Cora is about to give up Zalena. Now some of my theories are that yes Emma and Hook ended up back in time of the Echanted Forrest and that is why Emma looks like a peasant so that she does not reveal herself to anyone so that time will remain the way it is supposed to be. She and Hook are dressed up in royal garments as a means to go undercover for a way to either get back home or to stop Zalena. Rumplestiltskin is there to maybe help Emma and Hook in exchange for giving him information about the curse or his son. The reason as to why we see the other moments of Season 1 Echanted Forrest in the trailer is to maybe show us which parts of history might be changed. Evil Queen Regina might be referring to Zalena when she says "It's decided she dies tonight" in the trailer that is if she is talking to Emma and Hook or is telling Rumplestiltskin that Emma is the "she" who must die so that her curse is not broken.

Now for some theories of the new season and season finale or what I would love to see. To start I cannot picture a Narnia story arc, like one of the previous posters I love Narnia however I do not want to see Narnia in OUaT especially since it would be difficult finding how to connect the two worlds together. Maybe just maybe the White Witch is going to use Storybrooke as a way to take over the world but I'm doubtful of that. The Arendelle story arc is also a maybe but a doubtful maybe as well. Like Narnia I love Frozen but it would be difficult to explain the connection to OUaT. However I would love to see a Camelot story arc in the next season and it is the only one to actually make sense.

It would be awesome to see Morgan le Fay as the next season's villain and use storybrooke to take over Camelot or the entire world as her own kingdom since that is the story of King Arthur and Morgan le Fay. Again this is the only one that can actually make sense since in Season 2 OUaT introduced Lancelot which then gives OUaT a connection to Camelot. I would also love to see Maleficent as the dark fairy that the Blue Fairy exiled and as Morgan le Fay. If you think about it in the King Arthur Legend Morgan le Fay is not only a sorceress but also part fairy, I'm not 100% sure on this but I saw it somewhere I just can't remember where though. Anyways it would be exciting to see this as it also makes sense as well. Maleficent could have started out as Morgan le Fay/The Dark Fairy after being defeated by King Arthur and then exiled and had her wand taken from her by the Blue Fairy for the evil she has done. Maleficent/Morgan le Fay then took on the name Maleficent as either a title or a new name and then tried to get revenge on King Arthur by going after his wife Guinevere by putting the sleeping curse on her therefore having Guinevere being the first Sleeping Beauty and after that failed went after his daughter Auora and doing the same thing to her as she did to her mother. If you remember in one of the episodes in Season 2 Auora said something about Maleficent putting a curse on her like she did on her mother. This would then later have Maleficent/Morgan le Fay come to Storybrooke or where ever the next season takes place as either a fully restored Maleficent/Morgan le Fay or a reincarnation of herself or maybe even possessing a woman to not only claim camelot as her own but all of Storybrooke/The Echanted Forrest as well as revenge against Regina and Gold.

In conclusion the last one would be awesome to see also for the poster who posted Morgan le Fay as the original dark one it would be difficult, not impossible just difficult since it does require a time paradox or maybe a reincarnation spell. In addition to this the Icabad Crane theory would have little to no connection to OUaT and would be very difficult to explain. Oh I almost forgot the Will Scarlet/Knave theory yes the timeline of OUaT and OUaTiW are different it could also be that Will is there to possible help the OUaT team against the new threat. Maybe the new threat did something in Wonderland while Will and Anatasia were the White King and Queen Will traveled to the OUaT team with the help of the White Rabbit but couldn't have Anatasia come with him since Wonderland needs a ruler to keep things peaceful. If you really think about it the White Rabbit is able to creat portals to other worlds, he was able to travel to Alice's world, The Echanted Forrest, Wonderland, and just recently Storybrooke. Now my theory to this is that he is able to create portals that can also go in time as well. Alice's world is similar to Wendy's world in fact they could very much be the same world and time or at least a few years apart from each other. I walso believe that Wendy's and Alice's worlds are the same as Storybrooke's just in another time period. I'm highly doubtful that Wendy's and Alice's worlds are a separate world that takes place in a world where that time's culture, clothing, and technology are still around in 2014. And so I believe the White Rabbit is able to travel through portals but also through time as well.

Well that's all I have any follow ups?
