Thanks RG. Fruit of the Poisonous Tree was such a long time ago. I forgot about it. Still, the idea of King Leopold being so mean and cruel to Regina doesn’t line up with what we’ve seen of his character. I don’t know. Someone, I’ve never trusted that line. I feel like Regina could have lied to her father about that.
I think he’s only mean and cruel in this instance because he thinks he’s been cuckolded, which was a very big deal to kings in ye olde tyme. He needs to make sure that her virtue is safe because it reflect on him as a husband and ruler. I don’t think Leo is outright cruel in general–later in that episode when he speaks to the Genie he even acknowledges that he knows Regina is unhappy because of his inability to get over Eva. I think if Regina had fallen in love with Robin and then asked for a divorce, Leo might have granted it.
Good point. I am curious, would Cora’s barrier still have worked after the divorce though?
