1. Arendelle being frozen and randomly melting. How did Hans melt BEFORE Anna and Kristoff? How did he know that it's been 30 years that he's been frozen?

2. Why can't Emma, or Elsa or Anna just wish away the curse using the necklace? And why do I have a feeling that it will never be mentioned again?

3. Speaking of items never mentioned again, Pandora's Box. It can trap anyone in there and they haven't used it on the Wicked Witch or the Snow Queen? Seriously?! Question 1, I am kinda curious myself. Though it could be that the freezing spell has a duration, in which case, it makes sense that Hans thawed first, as he was frozen first (probably by a few weeks). Or some of Hans' brothers (ones that were NOT frozen) sought out a way to break the curse (though if that is the case, why were they not older). For now, I'll accept the spell duration (since it wasn't really a curse like the Dark Curse or Shattered Sight) until something else comes along that confirms the real reason.

Question 2, Who knows. Maybe the necklace was one and done, or maybe the curse is strong enough to resist being wished away. Or everyone simply paniced in the moment and was not thinking clear enough to come up with that solution. I don't find it that big of a plot hole.

Question 3: Pandora's box is controlled by Rumple, and he has it locked away somewhere safe, I am sure (particularly since it is dangerous to him). He would have had no reason to use it on Zelena (since he was her puppet), and Ingrid has not done anything to him personally (at least not yet) to warrant him pulling the box out. And Rumple does not do anything that does not have some benefit for him. To me, this is not a plot hole at all.
