You don’t think there’s a point of no return with Regina? If she wants to be good, maybe it be too late by then. Maybe the only thing she can do is redeeming herself because Snow White, Charming, Emma, and Henry probably won’t help her. She will have to do it on her own. But that’s for the Regina topic. I guess when talking about Snow, you really must talk about The Evil Queen/ Regina.
But to connect with Snow White, I think she understood now, as a grown woman, that what she did was a terrible mistake and that she’s trying to learn from it by doing good. Even in Snow Falls, Snow admits that she did something horrible to Regina. Yet, I really would like to see if Snow ever apologizes for the mistake she made (other than in Stable Boy).
No I don’t think she is at a point of no return. None of us really do. We all should rewatch every episode and focus our attention on every scene with Regina in it (FTL and Storybrooke) where can we come to the conclusion that she is at a point of no return. For every horrible thing she has done either in FTL and Storybrooke her eyes shows some humanity. When she kills her father Henry for instance, she did correct me if I’m wrong she either said soory or goodbye to him. A cold hearted killer would have just killed and sat down and ate cocoa puffs and then gone to work.
I think after she has a self realization moment of all she did, it is possible for her to be redeemed with or without help. I do not believe she is a character that deserves to die or be killed. Anyone killing her would be no better than Cora whom I believe is the real evil one, the one who made Regina the way she is. Perhaps she is the real villian of this story if she is still alive that is. Also maybe she may be repsonsible for Rumple’s turmoil, if the two have a story together.
I do not believe the real enemy has revealed themself yet. Every character good or bad were victims in someway or another. Whether by another’s doing or themselves, everyone was victimizied. Everyone has made bad decisions in order to try for a better result or has had every good decision backfire on them. Think about it. Rewatch. Then think about some more. There maybe some truth in your theory yet there may also be some truth to mine too.
No, you’re right she did say sorry. You’re right too, there is some humanity in her. Some part of her knows what she is doing is wrong, but she still does them. She knows the right thing to do, but she still does the wrong thing in order to benefit herself. What I’m saying is that there’s a point where all actions, all terrible actions, must be answered for. When I say, a point of no return, I’m also saying will she be forgiven for all the terrible things she’s done? I think there comes a point where you cross a line, Regina crossed it when she took everyone’s happiness away, when she killed two precious soul, when she tried to kill Mary Margaret. She tries to justify her actions, but her reasons are flawed. Regina is a sad woman who feels the world is cruel to her, but really, all the miserable things that happened to her, all the sadness she feels is her own doing She’s a complicated villain, but she still is a villain nonetheless regardless of what she feels afterwards. After all, the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
