So, wonky macguffin that sort of doesn't make sense (via the wording), but cool. I'm guessing it's suppose to go to Henry, but that explanation seems like it would go to Hook?

If Emma dies, then I'll make a thread about how the writers can't solve any big issue without death. After Graham in 1, Neal in 3, Robin in 5, Emma should not die in 7 or I think I'll have to get some rum myself.

Looking forward to the episode.....after the premiere! That's some stupid logic, sorry XD

But death ends a character journey in a meaningful way, rather than put them off-screen. I'm okay with Emma staying alive IF she returns later in the season, unlikely as it is, I can hope. And obviously she won't get to see Henry grow up, we already know that, so it's what she meant. I actually have a theory that she needs to stay back, even though that's not who Emma is, to give Henry the opportunity to become a hero and break the curse. Don't think I was talking about that. I know how a narrative works. I'm talking about the patterns, which I believe A & E said they are trying to avoid to some degree. (Though even worse if Emma was somehow the message in the bottle "Henry Mills, you're our only hope!") XD

I'm not going to discuss that until we find out.
