I think it was a bit too rushed in the flashback department. Like TigerLily was like, "Hey Fiona, are you fine about your child's impending doom? Ooops, you're a fairy. Ooops, you're now dark. Oh my, you're now banished. Better run off to Neverland now because I'm useless." I agree to an extent, but this is hardly a new problem on the show, I mean the flashbacks are usually a bit rushed, no? It could benefit from another backstory flashback. (Like over two episodes instead of one).

It went:

1. Rumple's birth. Prophecy be forewarned.

2. Fiona becomes a fairy, because she's worried.

3. Fiona asks TL to help with a big spell.

4. Fiona is stopped and suddenly turns dark.

5. Fiona is banished.

Like we didn't get to see her do anything with the DC. She just happened upon it in the Fairy Vault. She didn't become noticeably well-versed in Dark Magic because this was in a few months and she sort of was just banished. (And nothing on the Dark Realm).
