I saw this link on facebook, I'm really happy that we can still see the EF Do version of Rumple! What I think is going on, or rather my theory: The white flash took Emma to some kind of other world, Rumple is there too because all the darkness in his heart (not the DO darkness, but his own darknesss) is send there, it is the hat! The hat wasn't strong enough to contain the darkness when it was unteadered, but after Emma became the DO the apprentice's spell took Emma to the hat.
