    So now that Ursula has her happy ending, what will she do now? Will she switch to #TeamHero or just vanish altogether? (remember: cover up your spoilers)

    I’m thinking Ursula will probably lay low for a while, but occasionally pop back in.

    I’d like it if they did the Orpheus legend.

    But, does she really have her happy ending or is it just temporary, like Rumple & Reggie’s or now possibly Hook’s?  Regardless of what Ariel said, can any villain really have a Happy Ending as long as Emma is the Saviour?

    I’ve been wondering about that same question. I think the answer is that it is possible for villains to get their happy ending, provided they really have changed and go about it the correct way. I don’t really buy there being some cosmic rule that good “has to win” as Henry said S2 though. Not even heroes are guaranteed a happy ending (just look at what happened to Ruth, Graham and Neal, for example). I don’t think anyone is guaranteed a happy ending, nor are the villains owed one after the atrocities they’ve committed.

    Regardless of what Ariel said, can any villain really have a Happy Ending as long as Emma is the Saviour?

    I think the idea of everyone’s happy ending being dependent on Emma Swan is crap. It would feel a lot more authentic if the villains would take responsibility for their own happiness. Emma Swan having the heart with the darkest potential honestly feels like a plot device, or a way to make the villains look better by comparison. Emma in S1 was honestly my favorite character, so I hate to think she’s going to have to be tarnished to give villains their happy ending without them having to really work for it. I don’t mind Emma having struggles and temptations, since she’s human after all, but the thing I always really loved about Emma is that out of all the characters, she had some of the greatest cause (i.e. growing up feeling unloved) to turn towards darkness but didn’t. This idea of Emma giving into said darkness really doesn’t sit well with me though, and would really make me discontinue watching if the writers make her go full-on evil. I don’t like the idea of Black Swan one bit being used in a bid to prop up villains who don’t necessarily even deserve happiness, especially if it comes at the expense of people who try to do good.

    ” If villains can’t get happy endings while the savior is around, and Ursula is a villain, how did Ursula get her happy ending in this episode when the savior is most definitely still a factor?”
