TheGoldenKey, as much I would like it, I don’t think Regina will redeem herself any time soon. She’s trying to, but she’s doing it for all the wrong reasons – to get Henry back on her side. Hence it is still selfish and she’s not even remotely sorry for all her wrongdoings.
I completely agree that Regina will revert back to being The Evil Queen because she cannot just redeem herself for Henry, which she did confess to doing on Sunday night’s episode of “In the name of the brother,” she has to do it for herself. But I don’t think that Regina will die. Regina has to get a good ending, if she doesn’t then Rumple shouldn’t get one either. He was one of the ones who started this mess, Cora broke Regina but Rumple filled her with hatred. Between the two they created a monster. If Rumple does in deed get to redeem himself then he should also chip in and help undo what he helped to create. If not he does not deserve to get a happily ever after with Belle either.
I have been watching the youtube interviews and Lana Parilla herself said that she believes Regina got lost and started spiraling down a void with no one to help her. If anything I think that will be part of Emma’s task as the savior, you know good vs. evil, the last battle. A fight to save someones soul and so forth. At least that is what I am hoping for. If Regina dies after all we have seen her suffer through and how we have seen that she was corrupted then there would be no point to the story, for that matter they should have just let the story end how it originally ended in the original Disney’s Snow White, The Evil Queen falling off a cliff and dying.
