Okay I just seen the 5th sneak peek for episode 2×17 “Welcome To Storybrooke” These are just my thoughts and speculations on what I think could happen.
Here is the YouTube link

I had feeling that Regina would try to strike back at Snow, David, Emma, Neal and Rumple by trying to use Henry, this doesn’t surprise me.
Rumple’s attitude towards this mess in which he started by the way when he manipulated Snow into using that candle and tricking Regina into killing Cora to save his own skin does surprise me considering his relationship with Neal/Baelfire is somewhat improved after last weeks episode. I suspect that Emma may go to Neal about Rumple’s refusal to even protect his own grandson from Regina which will most like prompt Emma into telling Neal that she put Henry up for adoption when she had him in prison. I’m wondering if Neal & Henry will have a talk about magic I’m betting that this whole fiasco will make Neal decide to stay in Storybrooke to help Emma protect their son from Regina & Rumple.
Could this episode prompt Neal, Emma, Henry, David & Snow to seriously consider going to another land to escape what Regina has in mind with this latest curse ?
There some things that are very clear to me based on the sneak peaks & spoilers for this episode and some of the spoilers & teases that we have been getting about future episodes
1.) Henry is in danger from both Rumple & Regina.
2.) We know that Neal is sticking around for the rest of Season 2. It wouldn’t surprise me if they made MRJ a series regular by next season because his character is central to Emma, Henry & Rumple and possibly Hook as well.
3.) We know from the spoiler pics & the promo’s from this episode that Henry tries to get rid of magic by blowing up the well and in the promo Neal,Emma,Henry,& Regina are in the forest near the well.
4.) We know by Adam & Eddy at PaleyFest that we are going to see another land and that land could be Neverland based on the names of episode 2×21 & 2X22.
Thoughts Anyone ?
