David accidently smashed the hat, and Albert Spencer burned it so that David would not be able to fix it. Too true, and Magic beans are not readily availble (though not totally non-existant).

BUT... The end of TNPLH gives us yet another way to do a portal. The wand that Rumple owns allows the user to replicate ANY magic that they have experienced. Regina, Rumple, and Emma have all been through portals, and so should be able to open a portal using the wand. And we've already seen Emma open a time portal with the wand (though I do NOT want any more time travel.)  The ability to open a portal could be a good plot trick, particularly since it could open up any number of realms for story telling.
