These are good points. Just because Regina mentioned the Dark Curse once, how was Drizella able to find out all of the ingredients and actually cast it?

The timeline isn’t adding up. Drizella can’t be that powerful in that short of a time, why couldn’t Rumple and Regina have found a way to stop her within those 10+ years?

It doesn’t make sense, unless Lucy was aged up. Still, there would be at least another year break considering Henry and Cinderella in the flashbacks aren’t romantically involved yet. 1. Dark Curse just needs dark fairy dust, really. Tremaine has a bunch (said in 7x03).

2. Zelena also learned a bunch in the short time Rumple taught her. Guess she was a natural. Plus, just because you know a couple of spells doesn't make you powerful.

3. Rumple had his own plans, so I don't think he really cared to stop Drizella. Regina was busy with the war.

4. The real question is why didn't Regina just stop Tremaine right there? Why are they fighting a resistance led by King X and Lady Tremaine when Lady Tremaine was unguarded and without wand right in front of Regina. Lady Tremaine holds most of the roayl's magical items, so why not solve #Resist?

5. I'm thinking that Lucy was instantaneously created or something. Or Ella and Henry went/ Lucy went to a faster time flow world. So we don't know if it has been that many years. Otherwise, Lady Tremaine surely could have got another heart for Ana by then.

I wasn’t questioning how Drizella learned so quickly but how Regina couldn’t be able to stop her within the time period between the flashbacks and present day, but I suppose you answered that.
