I don't know if they would be able to do all of these in one season, so we'll call this "Things I'd Like To See In Season 5 and Beyond"

More Regina and Henry bonding: Seriously, this kid has basically dumped a woman who adopted him, loved him, and has sacrificed so much for him. All for a woman who, although loves him, didn't raise him. Wasn't there when he was sick, hurt, scared ect. It's nice that he gets to have a good relationship with Emma, but his relationship with the woman who F*CKING RAISED him from a newborn, has declined dramatically. The only way I even know that he even loves her at all is the fact when she kissed his forehead, it broke the curse. Until then, I wasn't convinced he cared all that much. This needs to be remedied. Regina has come so far to become a good person, to be worthy of Henry's love. (Not that she should have to. She was more than worthy before Emma showed up.) It's about time Henry acknowleges her progress and reconnect with her.

The Dagger: This will need to be addressed. How it comes about and how it's resolved is up for debate.

Less Snow/Charming: I like them. I really do. But God am I tired of hearing "I will always find you." practically every other episode. Their screen time needs to be limited to only when they are truly needed. Emma's progression of opening her heart is ok, being there to plan/attack the bad guy is fine, but no excessive BS.

Fleshing Out Current Characters: Though I know there will be some growth/conflict for Regina and Rumple again this year, let's try fleshing out other people for a change. Granny and Red anyone? Grumpy? Cinderella? Blue Fairy? Tinkerbell? Ariel? Auroura? Repunzel? Mulan? The list is endless and since whe have Frozen in the first half of the season, this should be for the second half of the season especially.

More Original Villians: Expanding a bit on the above, we need more villians/dangers that don't come from random fairy tales. EX: The Wrath.

If they continue to try and pull in more fairy tales, they will start to run out. Make them last longer by creating villians/danger with characters that either already exist, or are not from a specific fairy tale, but rather mythology in general.

Fixing Frozen: I know a lot of people will disagree with me, but I always felt like Kristoff should have ended up with Elsa rather than Anna. (Ice is his life remember?) The movie could have had that Duke of Weaselton guy be the true villian. Hans could have kissed Anna, and upon realizing it didn't work, look outside and notice the Duke going after Elsa. Anna saves Elsa, Hans and Anna decide to take things slow and Elsa and Kristoff get aquainted. I'd like to see this concept displayed in OUaT, and instead of the Duke being the bad guy, Elizabeth Mitchell's character is. (The orignial Snow Queen, who is Elsa's real mother, making Anna only her half sister.)

I'd also like Elsa to settle down in Storybrooke. She can work the ice cream shop.

Anna should be good at some kind of combat. Swords come to mind. Maybe even on horseback.

I'd also like at least one character from this arc to join the regular cast. I'd pick Elsa, personally.

NO MORE "SURPISE" RELATIONS TO HENRY: It's seriously getting old and they are running out of room on that family tree.

Pregnant Regina: I'd love for Regina to find out she's having Robin's child sometime close to the end of the season. It should be a girl.

Henry starts dating: Wendy Darling perhaps? She's still around his age I believe. If not, the Mad Hatter's daughter is another choice. Maybe Elsa and Kristoff's secret daughter? (Ok, that last one is a bit much, but still. She could have powers like her mother.)

Explaination of Light/Dark magic: I've been a bit confused on this. Regina was going to teach Henry magic (Dark) like Rumple taught her, yet it seems like people with light magic are born with it. So is that how it always works? Dark=Taught and Light=Born With? Cuz Regina can do both, yet was only taught dark magic. Emma can do light magic on instinct. I'd like some clarification on that. I seem to have missed something.

Emma Being Offically Crowned as a Princess: Her parents refered to Neal as Prince Neal. Now that Emma is learning to accept her family and her home, then should do an event/corination where Snow and Charming offically crown her as a Princess of the Enchanted Forest.

I think that's it for now. If I think of anything else, I'll add it to the thread.
