So we’re to believe that Snow and Charming of the past did something so horrible and yet it never seemed to impact their consciences until now, when the plot suddenly calls for it? Yeah right.
Right this really bothers me.
Also, why didn’t Mal seek revenge on these two in the months following them stealing the egg? Why was she just chilling in her castle with a pet unicorn?
Regina stole the curse before Snowing stole Mal’s baby. Mal may have been depressed and her punishment in Storybrooke is a lot harsher.
Mal had to protect the failsafe no matter what. Even when she was killed, she still had to protect the failsafe in Zombie form. Mal failed to protect her child. As Winifred Sanderson put it “His (Her) punishment will not be to die but to live forever with his (her) guilt”
All magic comes with a price!
