Hmmm. . . Emma was a "hero", while knowingly in possession of a stolen car. Then she went on to "save" her son in the most morally questionable manner, yet she remained a hero. Snow and Charming were the "heroes", despite the fact that they had Lily's kidnapping on their conscience and Snow had Cora's blood on her hands. I didn't realize that to be a hero, one has to be morally pure. Good luck in finding someone like that in real life, let alone in fictional works today. No one is talking morality here, valid points, but not in this thread.

We are talking pacing and character development. For example, Emma avoiding temptation of the Dark One and having a good time with Hook to the next noticable scene of ripping a girl's heart out and having a deeper voice is not good pacing. It came out of nowhere.
