Interesting, and encouraging, that we get Tink again. I enjoyed Rose's interpretation of the fairy.

So, my take on her part in the story. apparently, there is a flashback with Regina, Henry Sr, and Tink. My guess is that his occurs not long after 3x3. Tink is no longer a fairy, but is still invested in Regina, and goes to Henry for help in reaching her. this scene could provide additional information to help understand why Tink was so angry with Regina (Even rewatching 3x3, Tink's emotions against Regina seemed to run a little deeper than just what was shown in that episode).

Fast forward to present day, My thought at this point is that WR Robin has made the journey to Storybrooke, and this episode is where he will depart back to the WR. Tink will be there, and will convince Regina to NOT return, but to let this version of Robin go. Now, if Queenie is still around at this point (which is my premise at the moment), Tink may help point out that Queenie needs the love that would fill her empty heart (similar to where Regina was during the time of Page XXIII and 3x3), but Present day Regina has found a way to fill her heart with her relationships with Emma, Snow, Henry, and the rest of the group. She no longer needs the relationship with Robin, as she has found love. OutlawQueen can return to the WishRealm (offscreen), Regina can move on with her heart somewhat healed from the bruising it took at Robin's death, and everyone moves on in a better emotional place. OH, and the shears of Destiny will be used to separate Regina from Queenie so that both can live separate lives unaffected by the fate of the other.
