That little scene simply confirmed who the baby was, and we never say Lily's adoptive mother. Or Cruella is the adoptive mother, and they are waiting to reveal that in Sympathy for the De Vil. I like that thought. However, there is a slight problem of timing. Lily was already hatching from the Egg when she went through the portal, along with Cruella and Ursula. And Lily can't be more than 3 months old at the time of the adoption. And she was already in the System, so it would seem that either she was found, or Cruella and Ursula turned her over to Child Protective Services (Which would actually be the smart thing to do at the time, since they had no way of raising a baby). If Cruella and Ursulla did turn the child over to CPS, my respect for them will actually go up a little.

Back to point, if Lily was at most 3 months old, that leaves precious little time for Cruella (or Ursula for that matter) to develop any kind of relationship with Lily's Dad prior to the adoption. (Not that it can't be done in  3 months, just unlikely). And CPS is going to make sure that a home for a baby is stable before placing a child there, which means that the family would have been trying to adopt for more than a couple of months (Probably more like a couple of years, adoption is NOT a quick process).

Logic dictates that Cruella is not the Adoptive mom. But since this is a show about Fairy Tales, I am open to any possibilities.
