Writers want the audition think something, then they throw them some litle details before plot twist. You need to follow the little details. It would explain recent events we saw in Best Laid Plans, like what really happened during  Apprentices spell that's why  Apprentice was forced to send baby to other world to cover his mistake and was so mad at the Author so he trapped him inside the book. The switch (of babies) happened because the Author wrote it that way so nobody knows the truth but the Author and  Apprentice . Plus Emma knows magic because she is daughter of magic being (makes sense) and not some crazy stuff we've been told so far.

That makes a LOT of sense.... Everyone is wondering what would motivate Emma to go dark... well if she found out that she was really Mal's daughter (and conversely, Lilly was Snow's daughter), switched at "prebirth" by the Apprentice/Sorcerer...  AND the Charming's suspected/knew this...
