The other trouble is that in S1, Maleficent not only says she was defeated but says she's moved on from the Sleeping Beauty incident. If she moved on, why is she cursing Briar Rose's daughter?

This show has the tightest continuity of any show on TV but this is a huge gap and they really seem to have no idea and no desire to try to explain it and that bugs me. A lot. :P Was it ever said that she was the one that cursed Aurora? maybe someone else cursed her or the curse could have been passed to her from her mother.
