Or maybe it was a thing where they had to believe Em would be good, Charming did but Snow didn't... Well, that's what happens when the parent's aren't on the same page in terms of parenting. :p

Besides, we already knew that Emma was a Daddy's girl.

Ok, so from the Sneak Peek, we know at least one way that Abby Ross (Young Emma) is in the show. That still leaves Barclay Hope to be explained. Theory... maybe HE is Mal's Baby's real dad (and therefore Lily's real dad), and was exiled from the EF with Lily just prior to the Curse? Or maybe he's the person that receives the bundle from Snow, and is exiled? Either way, I think there may be more to him that we (or at least I) originally expected. So, it's confirmed that Lily is Mal's kid? (sorry, I haven't been on this thread in a while) We don't have offical confirmation, although it is looking very likely.
