I don’t understand why Emma even planned to use Henry’s tears though. I mean, she had no idea that Regina’s tears wouldn’t work. Why did she plan for it in advance? I would have understood if after taking the tear, the darkness rump showed up and told her it won’t work because such and such reason and then she decided that has to the violet heart thing and then during the ritual she “accidently” drops the bottle containing Regina’s tear and then Henry just so happens to show up at that point, wherein she takes his tear and sets merlin free.
It’s just all to convenient that this happened the way it did.
Oh I think Emma knew that Regina’s tear wouldn’t work, but she had to play dumb about it in order to keep her cover. She knew Henry would come crying to them, and she was using Regina’s tear as a distraction before hand. It was all about manipulation and timing.
