Mirror magic (which Emma learned in a quick minute), Plant magic, teleportation (which Emma also learned in a quick minute), and telekinesis (not that hard apparently) isn't too farfetched. Just that, it's a good thing that Sow was cursed to be the teacher instead of Regina, because she's tossing so many subjects at you at once.

As for Rumple, he was just keeping up appearances as we know that he plays the long game. It took 2 seasons for Emma to learn how to teleport, right? She began using magic in 2A. And the first time we saw her teleporting was in 4A (not sure) Self-teleporting. She learned after the Spirit Rumple told her how. Before then, all she teleported was coffee, lol.
