Out of sheer curiosity, I wonder what would have happened if a guard had seen little David and mistaken him for James.

Did she spend any time with Emma?

1. Did Regina really refer to the innocent people whose hearts she ripped out as "her enemies"? 2 Why hasn't she given these poor people their hearts back? Until she does that the writers can not say she is 'redeemed' in any shape or form. Well, I think they confirmed that David lived in a neighboring kingdom. Probably Snow's. Always thought they lived in George's kingdom.

I'm sure Emma went on a trip with Henry, so they probably just quickly said hello and a "I'll tell you all about it later kind of thing."

1. She admitted to taking so many that she lost tracked. Or perhaps that was her mother, but Regina doesn't really pay attention to heart stealing. She probably killed all the innocent ones. Not much better, but....

2. She could because they established magic can do a whole lot. However, I think the writers don't want to lose part of a set they think is cool or ever show it. At best, they'd mention it where a lot of the good stuff happens: offscreen.

The ending was pretty rough, but it happens to all characters because I guess they can't resist a twist (that's usually extreme). 2. Whether or not they want to keep the set is irrelevant; there are still people out there who do not have their free will! I'm takig this as a sign that Regina isn't meant to be redeemed.
