Sidney is a traitor, and I love him for it. Every villain needs to be taken down a notch every now and then. Rumple got taken down a notch when the mouse knocked the dagger out of his hand. Regina got taken down a notch when Sidney screwed her over. She realizes that there are consequences for her actions. I love Regina, but she deserved it for everything she's done to him.

Now, let's think about this from Sidney's point of view shall we:

He's been imprisoned in the genies' bottle for at least 100 years, he's finally released from the bottle and is lovesick since he's been alone in the bottle for so long, a woman manipulates him into tricking himself into a small prison again. Years later, he gets taken to Earth and is a lovesick slave for 28 years. Because he's in love with her, he confesses to a crime he didn't commit, and gets thrown in the asylum for a long time. He's finally released but is put back into the mirror. So I guess Sidney has now finally gotten over Regina and realizes that love is not his happy ending, but freedom. It has always been denied to him. Sidney sure does have some backbone. Go Sidney! Regina deserved it. I still love her though.
