    I know Wicked Sisters has been a popular theory around these parts, but it seemed kind of underwhelming to me. I don’t buy it, honestly. Zelena needed Regina’s blood for something (like breaking a blood lock?), and for someone who was abandoned as a baby and grew up in a separate realm, she sure seems knowledgeable about her “Mum” (though, granted, all of that knowledge could have been gleaned from her time as Rumple’s student). Reminds me of last year when Cora said Lancelot was dead and A&E called the fans out for taking her word for it – sure, that never ended up going anywhere, but it’s not as if we’ve got an overabundance of evidence for Zelena being a beacon of truth. For the new villain to be another member of the family tree is exactly what we’re all expecting after Pan, Cora, and Hook, but I think it’s a huge misdirect and there’s a bigger game in play.

    Plus, I could be wrong, but wasn’t there a spoiler of some sort that said we wouldn’t find out Zelena’s problem with Regina until the second to last episode? Could have sworn there was.

    I think you are on to something. There is something off about it. I mean, Zelena spilled the beans so soon, wich I did not see coming. I got the impression she was  toying with her, like she needed Regina´s blood to convince her what with dispeling the blood magic lock spell. Maybe the twist is that she is not Regina´s half sister, but maybe Snow White´s. Then again, maybe she is indeed telling the truth.

    If she is Regina´s sister after all, I still am waiting for something more. I believe there is more to the story and Zelena is not playing all of her cards just yet.

    Just a reminder… We do have the picture Rose McGowan posted of Cora giving birth… Not only that, but Zelena was already in the castle and crossed the blood magic barrier and hijacked it before she even had Regina’s blood from the monkey the first time (when we see the monkey dropping the blood into the vial).

    I think it would be an interesting twist, but personally I think there’s too much to go on right now.

    This thought has crossed my mind. They did reveal that they are sisters surprisingly soon. I think there are a lot of twists & turns to come! I’m glad of that.

    Zelena never was Rumples student. She is Rumples daughter. He might never saw her.

    Ok, so Zelena told Snow she missed out on the curse the 1st time around.  And she told Regina she’s her older sister.  But Regina is actually 28 years older than she appears, due to the curse.  So…

    1) Do you age differently in Oz?

    2) Was she actually here during the 1st curse and she’s lying about it?

    3) Is she not Regina’s sister and she’s lying about it?

    4) Did A&E make a big oopsie?

    Yeah they did. They’ve never done that.

    I will say this: if A and E are trolling us, it’s the perfect way to do it. We always complain about people being related. A giant family fake out would be perfect.

    A&E have said before ALL magical lands were effected by the curse. They were all “frozen” in time.

    Zelena may have revealed the big secret very early on but consider this, she knew she was going to cast another curse at some point so does it matter weather Regina found out now or later when she’s going to forget and have to go through the whole thing again.

    I said this in another thread and just wanted to get some opinions;

    “Her words about cradle cap struck me as a particularly obscure piece of knowledge for a wicked witch to possess. Something only parents or people who have been around young babies would know, or people who look after infants for a living.
    A thought struck me when she was talking to Snow White; does she have a child/children of her own? If her real motive was to get revenge for something done to her child… now THAT would be a plot twist.”
