Assuming that tweet by Victoria Smurfit was legit, Cruella's being part of Once. So I had this idea, that would also give us a more Henry-centric show again, like in the earlir season (Henry wasn't all that interesting in S2, and a straight on plot device on 3A). Maybe the new villain will cast an successful Dark Curse, reverting the twon to a S1-esque setting, except Emma will be a part of it. Because Henry has no Enchanted Forest counterpart, he would be unnafected, and we would have him trying to convince Emma of the curse again. I think it would be a nice throwback, because I assume many people here also miss the old Once. Maybe reveal more about the underdeveloped characters [Whale, Mulan, Red, Belle (We haven't heard about her in a while)]. rather than just keep adding new characters in that rythm (Don't get me wrong, I love the Wicked Witch, but seriously, they can't just throw a new villain every half a season and expect us to be okay with that, A&E are smarter than that). It would also help them delay the 'running out of material' moment that Once will have one day.
