I think that Elsa ran into Rumple at some point and he was giving her a talisman or pendant to focus her magic. However she was afraid it would be a trick and freaked out. Her outburst would allow Rumple to see her power and then he came to the conclusion that she was too unpredictable (Or dark, if they go that route), and sealed her in a capsule in the vault of unpredictable/powerful magic.
