Yeah, they move in 7x11, but here Robin is just roaming around and is another Flynn Rider (which gives me joy when they refuse to insert Disney) to help Alice.

However, none of this explains the timeline. Forget Robin. Alice was a baby when Drizella was like 12. Hook also aged many years. Unless Hook just has bad genes, at least 20 years had to have past. (Plus, they specifically made Robin 25 pre-HH/or 17, if Zel and Robin moved the same year Lucy was born.)

Another aside, Alice mentioned what Rumple sacrificed for her. There's that too.
