Reply To: TVLine March 8: Blind Item–Series Killing Off Star In Finale (Revealed)

I think they’ve travelled too far down the OQ road for Robin to not be the right man with the lion tattoo.

Just had a thought, what if Sean asked to be let out of his contract like Meghan did in season 2? Literally Robin’s role is Regina’s boyfriend. Robin doesn’t interact with Roland anymore so his father role has become non-existent in terms of actually having scenes with his kids. Sean might actually want a more challenging role where he actually gets to do something instead of just standing around doing nothing like he does on OUAT. It sucks to kill Robin off in this way if this is indeed the case but considering Robin has been glued to Regina’s side since season 4, it would look a bit odd if he just disappeared.

I would have preferred if Robin had to go off and do a mission whilst Regina looked after Storybrooke, or if Robin and Regina got separated across different realms instead of killing him off but I can see why they might kill him off. What will be interesting is if they actually have the characters acknowledge the death beyond the funeral.
