I don’t know. I have just always thought that. Just because we know Emma and Henry’s father met and hooked up and then Emma got in trouble and then she found out she was pregnant with Henry and the father doesn’t know she had a child so i always thought that there must be some incident that happened involving them both and then she went to jail because of that incident and he didn’t and she never saw him again and he never found out she was pregnant. Also just because if whatever happened between the two of them was big enough for Emma to get thrown in jail that would explain her very real anger at him as well.
And it is possible that there is some sort of misunderstanding about it all like Emma thinks that the father was involved in a crime, but he wasn’t exactly involved or he may have been doing it for some reason or felt like he had no choice or maybe not understood that it was criminal. I don’t know. We just don’t know enough. It is just that the timing has all of that happening around the same time, Emma meeting the father, getting pregnant, and going to jail, so it seemed like there might be a connection there.
