So, I can accept that only Emma and Henry can stay because Emma broke the curse, but why take back those it did not come with? They went back with the curse to keep their memories. See my post above.

Also, the curse took back anyone within SB that was not born in LWM, not just those affected by the First Curse. This explains Tink, Hook, Neal, Pinnochio, and likely some others returning to EF. Additionally, Alexandra could not have simply "disappeared" when they went back to EF and then "recreated" when they returned to SB. 1. Magic does not work like that. 2. Why would Ashley be acting normal with Alexandra if she had been destroyed then recreated? (this was after the Second Curse was broken)
