In Season 1 episode 22 where Emma has to get the love potion from inside Maleficent (dragon form) she hits her with the sword and Maleficent catches on fire and turns to ashes. My question is, how is she alive? I know ONCE has a lot of plot holes, and I'm thinking this is a big one. Plus, I dont understand the dramatic change in wardrobe from lavender and purple to black. And where'd the horns come from?
