Like i said, i liked the emotion of the scene a lot, but it is just completely inconsistent with Season 1 and 2 and so their decision makes no sense because of the inconsistency. They changed how the curse worked, how the savior worked, everything to create a different choice then the original choice and then tried to pretend that it was the original choice when it was different.
You’re right. There wasn’t anything stopping Snow and David from getting Emma other than PLOT. In season two, Emma and Snow learned that Snow, rather than Pinocchio, could’ve gone through the wardrobe with Emma. Emma having her mother wouldn’t have prevented Emma from being the savior because Snow would’ve raised Emma to believe in fairytales. Emma would’ve accepted her role as the savior because she would’ve believed. That was the essential part of her accepting her role as the savior, the belief, not her age. In fact, Emma was always the savior since she was born because that is how Rumple had engineered it. Therefore, her age was irrelevant.

Yes the age factor they randomly inserted was one of the dumbest things in an episode full of dumb things. 28 is just the age when she came to town.

Good point. Age is definitely irrelevant. She was BORN the savior.
A better plot point would have been to say that she needed to grow up to be old enough to cope with the burden of savior-ing, and to do that, she would have to be kept well away from Regina, who would have murdered her as a child.

Because they like seeing Emma and Hook together. The OUAT Facebook page is filled with comments about how “cute” Emma and Hook are together, how important it is that they reunite etc etc. It’s the only thing that matters to them. The other viewers are mostly those who are trying to see it through out of a sense of loyalty to what the show once was. As for me, I’ve been done for a while now.

I say because a lot of us have invested a lot of time (years) in this show and we’ve grown to love it along with the cast. It’s just unfortunate how the plot keeps going to hell as the seasons progress, especially because the show had so much promise and such talented cast.
At this point after spending so many years on it, you might as well just finish it off you know?
April 17, 2017 at 2:48 am #336291Bar FarerParticipantI have a pointless question: Snowing remembered that stupid flower after the curse was broken, why didn’t the gang look for it in order to bring Emma and Snow back back in season 2? or Henry in season 3? or Anna in season 4? or Emma in season 5?

April 17, 2017 at 3:10 am #336293ry4christParticipantThe flower was definitely a major retcon, that could have solved many problems in the show’s previous seasons. But Snow and Charming not going through the door kind of made sense to me. Let’s say they go through the door. What happens then? Do they claim to be her parents and kidnap Emma? She could have still come to town at age 28, but would that have meant Snow and Charming would’ve had to wait 18 years with their memories until Emma broke the curse.

They could have gone to Emma, could have told her that they are her parents, prepared her for her destiny and brought her back to storybrooke on her 28th birthday.

So they wouldn’t have tried to raise her, just told her about her destiny and come back for her on her 28th Birthday? Would she have believed it though? And if they tried to raise her, how would that have worked logistically with her being in the foster system? They would let Snow and Charming just “kidnap” her.
