(Both David and Henry having been under a sleeping curse, little things with the book, August's comment to Emma about coming a long way. and those were only a few).

I think that they do an amazing job tieing loose ends together as well as slipping in some minor retcons. Granted, they sometimes have to use a plot device (troll memory stones, for example), but they do manage to keep the plot hole damage to a minimum, and maintain a reasonable conherence to the entire story. Agree with this. Sometimes things don't make sense or seem wrong, but really it's just they haven't got around to explaining it yet. And as far as eventually explaining it, they do a really good job with that. We just have to be patient, because sometimes it takes a while to get the explanation. Patience is a ....something, but airing our grievances and issues can also lead to their resolutions too. Example, Alex is a girl, and Adam admitted after sometime that they were mistaken for having a boy fill in the role. They also used the words soulmate and true love. Now they only use true love because they (A&E) struggled with responding to others questions regarding the difference and they couldn't explain it without confusion. SO, sitting back and waiting to see is nice, but can be a bad thing too. That's how we know the difference between plot hole and #KeepWatching or #nospoilers ( hashtags used by the writers when something will be answered.
