Note: Full spoilers for the episode follow.
The Snow Queen wants a perfect family. It's not a complex motivation, but it's powerful and a little creepy. If she wipes everyone out with her fancy mirror, what does she expect Emma and Elsa to do? She'd end up forcing them to love her. Ingrid's desperation for validation combined with the fact that she's been watching Emma for a long time is unsettling. Elizabeth Mitchell completely sells the Snow Queen's deranged state of being.
Though we learned when she captured Anna and a little about her plan, there are still gaps in the Snow Queen's history. That said, tonight's episode made more progress than I would have expected in furthering her backstory. She's just the kind of villain the series needed, and her understated brand of evil is enjoyable to watch.
