I just don't see it. I can actually see that ulterior motive for giving Bae the bean; but that doesn't mean she is evil. In my opinion, the ulterior motive was to get rid of the Dark One. By giving Bae the bean, she may have thought that Rumple with leave with him to wherever the bean was meant to lead them (maybe the land without magic, maybe neverland, or maybe just where Bae wanted to go).
