We’ve seen the idea of body parts-as-talisman that are used to fuel extraordinary spells before (Zelena) so, it could very well be the case that Emma’s now darkened heart (the Savior’s heart) is needed to rewrite the villains un-happy ending.
Interesting theory, and it would be intriguing if that were to happen. However, I think the title is more likely a reference to the whole “Thief with a Heart of Gold” trope, which applies to Robin Hood.
Yes, we already know for sure we’re going to see a bit more of Robin Hood’s story in the fairytale flashbacks, and probably, his dealings with Mr. Gold in Manhattan during the 6 weeks in which Gold was banished from town. Robin said he had a dark past he wasn’t proud of so that could parallel Emma’s current struggle with darkness in the present day.
As I wrote though, I think the title has several different meanings. What is happening in present-day SB? The QoD are trying to get their happy endings. I think we’re going to see the plot taking off as we learn what Rumple’s plan is, and that ultimately, the QoD are working for him, not with him, and that they’re going to exploit the savior’s heart with the darkest potential for Mr. Gold’s purposes.
