Regina refusing to acknowledge her faults, again. She is all “but it’s not my fault, it’s Snows!”
I really think she shouldn’t be redeemed as long as she won’t admit, take responsibility and ask forgiveness for the wrong she has done.
This is really the essence of what I find to be one of the most interesting things about this show. I agree with you SerDragon that you’ve gotta be able to see and acknowledge your own mistakes and so does Regina. But… yes there is a but.. People become the words that are spoken about them. Meaning if you keep calling someone evil, thats what they will become because its how they are then percieved by the people around them- AND in the end the way they percieve themselves.
With this show and this story it is a good way to point to this believe. Because fairytale characters are VERY defined by (their story..ofcourse) the words asociated with them. In the original Fairytale Snow White, it is impossible to see the Evil Queen as enything but Evil because she is the Evil Queen- Its the snake biting its own tale, kind of a thing- the circel that never ends.
Coming back to our Regina. She was A queen, it was someone else, the story, the storyteller, us- who aded the Evil to her name. She IS not evil, no human being is evil in their essence. Evil is a constructed word or idea. There are wrong acts and right acts acording to what direction the action-taker wants to go ( okay this’ getting to philosophical and think i’m floating abit far of the ground, I’m not really very good at explaining this..)
Anyways Regina is Regina, a human being, not an evil being.. We become the words that are spoken about us. We become a story about ourselves…….. Does enybody get what I’m trying to say 😕 😆 🙄
