History

Before First Curse

Pinocchio and Emma are sent to the Land Without Magic via a magic wardrobe. The two of them come out of a tree in the woods. Pinocchio brings the infant Emma to Chantey's Lobster House to seek help. To protect Emma, he lies to the police about where he found Emma and tells them that he found the baby by the highway. ("The Stranger")

Shortly after this, a local newspaper runs a story about baby Emma and how she was found on a roadside by Chantey's Lobster House. Emma keeps the article in her file, while Pinocchio and the Snow Queen, who are both keeping an eye on her, also keep a clipping of the article. "True North", "The Stranger", "Family Business", "Firebird")

During First Curse

During 2009, Emma drives the yellow bug back to Chantey's Lobster House, where she was found as an infant twenty-six years ago. She proceeds to show the old newspaper clipping to a shop keeper, asking if there are anyone working there who might remember information about the baby that was brought in. However, the woman behind the counter says that 26 years is too long, as they can't even keep a cook for six week. Emma asks if a long-time customer might remember something, but the woman explains that they don't have that kind of loyalty and that she won't find anyone there who remembers this. Emma takes her food and walks away, saddened, to the sitting area, where she sits alone and looks at the article. A woman named Cleo Fox sits down with Emma and strikes up a conversation. She correctly guesses that Emma is the baby that was abandoned.

Later, Emma discovers that the Hancock County Courthouse has a file on her and goes there with Cleo to read it for herself. However, the file turns up with barely anything; it only contains a copy of the same article and a single piece of paper. When Emma has a meltdown, Cleo suggests she give up on finding her birth parents, pay for her crimes, and then start a new life, causing Emma to react in anger. ("Firebird")

In 2011, Emma goes to retrieve a file from a box of belongings in Mary Margaret's apartment. Informing her roommate that she needs to go outside to get some air and think, she brings the file with her outside. She goes through the file as she sits in her sheriff's car, looking at information on herself including the old newspaper clipping. Her son Henry suddenly appears outside the car and asks what that is, but she tells him that it's just an old file. ("True North")

Pinocchio, who now goes by the name of August, brings Emma to Chantey's Lobster House, where he shows Emma the newspaper article and states that the diner is the place she was brought to when she was found as a baby. Emma is not impressed and believes he just found an article about her, but August reveals that this is their story and that he was the seven-year-old boy who found her. He then brings her into the woods and says that this is where he found her when she was a baby. Emma doesn't believe him, because she was found on the side of the highway. However, August points out that Emma only believes that because the article says so, and admits that he lied about where he found her. To prove that he is who he says he is, he tells her something that wasn't in the article: when he found Emma, she was wrapped in a blanket with the name "Emma" embroidered along the bottom of it. Emma reluctantly believes him, but gets more and more frustrated and leaves him in the woods. ("The Stranger")

After Second Curse
Emma and her boyfriend Hook enter the Snow Queen's ice cream van and find a freezer, which Hook breaks open with his hook. Within it, Emma uncovers the old newspaper clipping detailing how she was found by Pinocchio as an infant; proving the Snow Queen has been watching Emma since she arrived in this world. ("Family Business")
