I really hope they do pull in the folklore of the relationship between Robin and Will. There is any number of ways that the relationship could be twisted (Half-brother, Step Brother, cousins, etc). Saying that Will is related to Robin just makes sense.

As to why he would be back in the EF... Having never seen wonderland, I don't know alot of that story, but if Will is related to Robin, maybe there was something of Will's that Robin was holding, and he went back to the EF to get it, and while he was there, he got caught in the second curse. Really, if they play the family card (which they should imo), there are so many reasons and ways for Will to want to visit the EF open, and he could be the very (un)lucky recipient of a ticket to Storybrooke on his visit.
