Exactly. That's why we should count Smash the Mirror as one episode. If I remember it correctly, there was a small time leap (a few hours)  between Snow Drifts and There's no Place like Home. At the end of Snow Drifts The Evil Queen interrupted King Midas' ball and  took Emma with her. Meeting Prince Charming and Snow Prince Charles (= Hook) introduces himself saying "Prince Charles. Lovely ball the other night." Which means some hours passed which we didn't see on screen. Certainly, It took Hook a while to track Charming down,

My guess is there's no such time leap in Smash the Mirror

Furthermore, wasn't there a gala or something Abc aired last year  and therefore decided to show There's no Place right after Snow Drifts? I don't know for sure right now but it might be we even had a discussion about the airing last year. And the different names and title cards.
