The latter part of every season is never what they envisioned in the beginning. You need more faith in our writers XD I know! It begins as planned and then spirals into to something they don't seem to have planned. No wonder this show is about hope! We need Faith in the Wirters! Hope in the Writers! Love the Writers?

I think they just need to solidly plan out another season and just write it together or less individual writers and more planned out character growth so that it is natural and not the lesson of the day.

Example: Lana said a while ago that Regina would learn her happiness isn't in a man......4x12 to 4x19 says I need Robin, 4x20 says I learned that I don't need a man for my happiness and Zelena says it so balatantly that I think they lost their touch of subtlety. Then they spell it out in the flash back, but have Regina realize that 150 years ago she learned a lesson and she just didn't so happen to apply it until now.

I wonder how it'll end out. On a podcast of the show, someone pointed out an interesting point, like in this finale. They are using balck and white to define every thing that's grey. Grey characters, but black vs white opposition. Hopefully they tackle it correctly in this episode or I think they might need to take a philopsophy class or something. Or a dictionary and learn what potential means, lol.
