Briefly emerging from lurkerdom.
I still have an odd little suspicion that Tamara’s grandmother is Tiana. The only Disney “princess” to be grounded in a “real-life” place and time. Tiana certainly had no reason to love magic (it turned her into a frog!). What if she and Naveen were somehow from FTL, but wound up here in New Orleans and raised a family? And somehow Tamara had reason to believe the magic in her grandmother’s past contributed to her death or something? (Or maybe little Tamara was freaked out by tales of life as a frog! 😆 Kidding. Mostly.)
Huh. You know who the bad guy was in that movie? Dr. Facilier. The Shadow Man. 😀

I’ve seen that theory around here before and of course back when Tamara was first introduced a lot of people thought she might be Tiana. Unfortunately, I can’t debunk your theory or poke holes in it because this is probably the ONE Disney movie I haven’t seen, but what you’re proposing does sounds interesting, especially the Shadow Man.

Someone was joking about Tamara being related to Torquemada, of the Spanish Inquisition (SI). A modern day SI perhaps? 😮

If they’re going to mash up some Monty Python, can we get a killer bunny?
Yes!!! Or the Knights of Ni! LOL! What I’d give to see them skipping about with their coconuts and bickering with taunting French guards! 😆

This needs to be a deleted scene at least.

Omg. That would be incredible. 😆

GOAT thinks they are serving a higher purpose, they honestly think what the Home Office asks them to do is the right and noble thing. So like so many villains on this show, I don’t think we can just flat out call evil or crazy. (Just give me Tamara’s story already!)
I don’t think we should expect every operative of the Home Office to be given a backstory, and in Tamara’s case I’m not sure she’ll live to become a character proeminent enough to warrant one. After what she did to Neal I can’t see the finale ending without Rumple wreck a terrible vengeance upon her.
I don’t know about that. They’ve introduced the grandmother as her reason for her convictions. We’ve seen her pull out a picture of her grandmother. They must have plans to show us that back story at some point and time.

I think we’ll definitely get a backstory on Tamara. We kinda have to in order to understand what the heck her motivations are cause she’s not making a whole lot of sense.
Also as TGK pointed out, we’ve seen the picture of the grandmother. It’s significant, we just don’t know why yet.

I think many fans would be upset if they didn’t give Tamara some sort of story, not because she’s a liked character (I think she might be the first one that everyone just *hates*) but because they need to understand why she does what she does. We know why Greg is doing this.

Agreed, I just hope whatever episode we see of her isn’t too character-centric. At least with the one involving her potential parents it was part them and then part RumBelle. I don’t think I could handle a Tamara-heavy episode. It was bad enough to mash her flashback stuff with August (remind me not to be too thrilled about a long lost character returning for a centric ep :S)

I know many people think Tamara will die in the finale because the actress has been added as full time to the Walking Dead, but they start later in the season than we do, so she could potentially be around for the first 4 episodes or so of S3 before AMC calls her back. AMC seems to have a pretty good relationship with network TV, they’ve “loaned” several actors from their top shows out to work as previous characters (Lane Pryce from Mad Men as David Robert Jones in S4 of Fringe, the woman who plays Trudy on Mad Men is normally on Community on NBC).
I don’t particularly want a Tamara centric episode either because I feel like it would just anger me but I do think we need one, so let’s get it out of the way.
