IIRC the first one was going to involve the Evil Queen travelling to whatever realm Facilier was in. She'd heard of his voodoo abilities and wanted him to help her get vengeance on Snowing, but they fell in love and she pushed him away. Ruth and Henry met and I think it had some kind of significance in the present day, but I don't remember what it was. Ursula went full-time on land and terrorized a village before realm jumping to Victorian England. Cruella tried to tame her, but Ursula fought back and the two realized that their goals were largely the same (gain more power so they could exact vengeance/prove their worth/etc.). At some point in time Cruella called Ursula the sea bitch. They ended up going by car into EF via mermaid portal bc plot. Alice realm jumped looking for a way to break the curse of the poisoned heart and she went to Arendelle, Neverland, Agrabah, etc. before reaching Wonderland. None of them had any relation to the Blue Fairy so Henry failed on the front of looking for a way to defeat her and the Apprentice showed up for some reason

The Jodie Whittaker one had Cecelia, Granny, and Will's backstories to fill in a few gaps (I didn't remember all the open plot points so I just picked random ones). The whole plot revolved around Wish Henry being forced to change everyone's stories so Henry had to fix them. Granny's backstory involved her being the Little Match Girl in Arendelle during the winter and making a deal with Rumple for the magic matches so she coiuld go to a warmer place (probably Agrabah). She got bitten by a werewolf soon afterwards. Cecelia was a Knight of the Round Table and had Cinderella  with someone there (I don't remember who I planned for it to be) but fled Camelot when she found out the truth about Arthur. Gawain and the Green Knight were somehow involved. Will left Storybrooke after Hook's death. He and Belle looked for some portal magic or magic bean and then he went to Wonderland and reunited with fam. Wonderland crew appeared in the present day to establish them being there for the finale.

I might do some bullet cap recaps for some of the episodes that I didn't do anything for? I didn't fully flesh out the second half since I was working on 8A and 8B at the same time, but I know how everything went. I hope this was satisfying! I think I'll post the original season 8 finale in bullet points here (as an example for how the new one will work)
