    I’ve got the most simple explanation to solve this question, and whatever Once question anyone has!

    #WHAT”S CANON IS WHAT”S CANON….The End

    So now I’m expected to be passive in my interpretation of the show simply because it worked out well for your favorite character?

    No.

    This is plot hole. They broke rules and did some magical handwaving for the sake of emotional story.

    I have ZERO problems with Regina being the one to break the curse. ZERO. It was a great moment.

    I have MANY problems with the fact that it was poorly written and explained.

    They saw the Curse as a bus that would take them from point A to point B but that’s not just what the curse was for.

    All things considered, it’s actually sort of laughable that they refered to what they did as re-using the Dark Curse. Regina destroyed the scroll, which was meant to have destroyed the Curse once and for all, right? With no scroll, how did she even manage to replicate the Curse at all? It took Rumple centuries to craft that thing, but Regina recalled the intricacies of it off the top of her head to replicate it on the spot? There was no cauldron involved last time, in fact it was quite the opposite, she used fire. The new Curse wouldn’t do the same thing the original Curse did because it wasn’t going to remove any memories, and that was half the point of the Curse in the first place. And the price paid for the Curse can now be circumvented. All told, they threw the actual Curse out the window and made up a new thing that they labeled as the old thing, just so they had a plot device to get everyone back to our world. So if they threw out all the other rules, Regina as Curse breaker is just another thing to add to the list.
