Obviously I'll start with the Emma theory of the day xD Since she is one of my favorite characters and unforgotten to me. And I also don't want to invade every thread with Emma theories.

I think they will want to keep her in the show in some form, so either she becomes the essence of Hyperion Heights (they said she is involved with the events of HH), becomes a guardian angel for Henry and/or Lucy, or part of her soul is absorbed by Henry. To be honest, this is more of a wish and hope, because I don't want the writers and characters to forget her, I don't care that she is no longer the protagonist, she is still the former protagonist and mother of the new lead. It would be something like The Princess and the Frog, where one of the characters dies and becomes a star, it was beautiful in the movie.

Another theory I had but it's pretty much debunked, is that Rumple's new identity was Hook's father, that would have been an incredible dynamic, but I'm okay with them just working together, so I believe they will be partners, as teased in an advance preview. I'm not even sure Rumple's new name is Weaver, but I believe it because it's a nice reference to his former job xD

Another theory that is likely confirmed is that Zelena will come to Hyperion Heights, but I'll get to it in another post.
