Just a thought but what if all the people who need her to believe hit Emma with an intervention type thing to finally get her out of her denial. The mad Hatter is suppose to be back for these next two episodes. So what if the whole is greater than the sum of the parts (I think that’s how it goes) Henry, August, Jefferson, they all tried to convince her on their own but if all of them do it at once? Throw Mr. Gold in there too, maybe that gives them a better shot some of this is gonna end up coming down to a leap of faith anyway but I think it’ll be easier if they all work together. When I think about it though her reaction to being told by August isn’t completely one of someone who doesn’t believe what she’s being told. It sounded like she does believe but is overwhelmed by the responsibility and doesn’t want to face it. Maybe it’s not a matter of believing in magic or curses but a matter of Emma believing in herself. Hence the line in the promo “you might not believe in curses but I believe in you.”
