The only thing that I am questioning, and I'll probably post this question in the episode thoughts thread in the Genral discussion area, is how Killian became a second DARK one by becoming tethered to Excalibur. Merlin was not Dark, even when he was controlled he was able to fight the dark tendencies. Emma corrupted Merlin's magic and immortality, when she used the darkest of magic to create another Dark One. Also, Merlin did have darkness within him. He just chose never to act upon it.
