Oh there are no pictures of them getting sucked into a vortex. There is just the shots of the street torn apart with that green screen hole in the ground which i am not finding that really good picture of it at the moment. It is just that they are the same spot, so what i think happens is.
Ep 201. The pictures we got yesterday. With everyone on set. Emma, Snow, Charming, Henry, Red, Granny, Jiminy, the dwarfs. It seems to be the same location as the shots with the big hole in the ground from last week with the running and Jefferson.
So i think in Ep 202 we are seeing the after effect of what happened in Ep 201.
So in in Ep 202 we see.
Oh i found the really good picture of the hole.
And then yesterday there was those shots of everyone in the same clothes as they were in the finale.

I just think that at some point in 201 everyone is going to be in the street and this hole is going to open up under Emma or maybe under Henry. Emma is going to get sucked in possibly saving Henry. It all depends on who opened the vortex. And regardless Emma gets sucked in and Snow goes in after her. That would explain why it seems like Charming is running around in Ep 201 trying to find someone, Emma and Snow. And why Henry is off on his own maybe trying to find Emma at Regina’s.
We are guessing here though, so that is all a guess. It is just that it would explain the destruction. If there was some sort of violent sucking wind that blew things around here in the center of town when the vortex opened.
And yeah the vortex thing totally makes me think of Rumpel and Bae. Rumpel lets Bae go and Snow jumps right after Emma. That would be a nice parallel and yet a huge character difference at the same time.
