It's freaking amazing that they could hint at it for this long and nobody noticed it (or at least I didn't). I was always under the impression that Zelena was their lazy plot twist to add Oz into there, or just to get the Wicked fans excited. But they've been hinting at this stuff for a very long time. So.... there were hints to Rumplestiltskin's rivalry with Hook, throughout Season 1. The pilot may have even hinted, that Hook would be Emma's love interest. There have been lazy twists, like the whole Grag and Tamara fiasco. However the Zelena stuff, was blatant foreshadowing.
