True North question

[madwitch58.livejournal.com]

Ok this has been bugging me like crazy since True North. Regina knows that no one can leave Storybrook, right. Then why did she tell Emma to take the twins to Boston? Regina had to know that something would happen to Emma's car and that Emma being Emma would call the twins father knowing that once he saw them he would not be able to allow them to end up in foster care.
Why then knowing all of this then why did Regina tell Emma to take the twins to Boston in the first place. Does Regina deep down want the twins to be with their father?

well since emma can come and go (unless that has changed and we don't know) i assumed they'd be able to leave with her. that or regina was hoping there'd be a crash that would kill them

i don't thing regina wants them to be with their father for love, if she did want them to be there i think it would be because she can use them for something
