So it was some sort of masterplan?

If so, then that was very Rumplestiltskin-styled Emma's not stupid. Emma came up with a plan because she didn't think Regina's would work, and neither would her own. Regina wouldn't have agreed to do that to Henry and if Henry knew about it, it wouldn;t have been genuine.
