    WickedSisters: Confirmed.

    Yup. Basically.

    I’m not going to lie. I am not thrilled about this.

    A and E are starting to come across as a “one trick pony.” Need a villain? Make it a family member. Why can’t they try a different tactic? Mal’s sister would have been so much more believable. I have such a hard time seeing Cora having another kid when the first season made it so clear that Regina was her one and only.

    And if the WWW turns out to be Rumple’s child I am going to pitch a fit. It’s WOZ. Has to be. Which means I am changing my tune, Gorham can’t be Oz.

    At the very least, I hope that if they are sisters then Regina is unaware of her, otherwise it’s like, “Oh- by the way- meet my wicked sister whom I have not made any mention of to anyone before this point.”

    Yeah I hope so too. That’s why I thought up my little theory that Cora had a baby when she was still poor and working the mill, and she had to give the baby away because she couldn’t afford to look after it. Perfectly acceptable to believe that Regina would have never known about that.

    If WW really does end up being related to Regina, I do think it’s something they’ve had in mind for a while now. Regina’s line about “even if it turns me green” was probably very deliberate, and the same could also be said for the Oz anvils used to try and mis-direct who Whale was gonna be.

    It’s not my favorite idea versus she’s Malificient’s sister.  I agree, they’ve dipped the secret family too often.  At least let it be another villain’s secret family–and one that would play very well into the myth of Oz where one witch is angry that her sister died.  Certainly, what Regina did to her “old friend” Malecificent is deserving of some pay-back (if you’re thinking like a wicked witch that is!).

    I do think it would be backtracking if Rumple is the papa.  What I think could work though is that Rumple did something to Cora and either there’s another child or he did it to the baby she held up tot he crowd as Regina, and in a convoluted bit of magic and such, she ended up with the girl who grew up to be the Regina we know.  So that might be a baby switch thing –if Cora switched her own baby because of a magical side-effect.

    I could also see that her own child was born with green skin and Cora transferred the curse of it to Wicked.  Who knows!

    I just don’t understand how #WickedSisters is going forward and the brilliant #TeamBrothers was never to be. :(

    Reaction isn’t all positive around fandom so far from what I’ve seen. People are sick of the interrelatedness of everyone now. Yes, Bae=Neal=Henry’s papa was brilliant, but after PapaPan, Kinda Step-Papa-but-not Hook and every other thing it’s getting ridiculous.

    I agree with Jo!!!

    Besides this sister thing with Regina would defeat the purpose of Cora’s story that was told.

    We are suppose to see more of Snow’s mother too perhaps this has to deal with that instead. Still not on board with the sister thing and personally I really wouldn’t like it. If this was Mal’s sister fine but Regina’s no.

    Alternative solutions to WickedSister (sorry WR.)

    1) The WW is CORA’s sister?

    2) The WW is a former friend to Cora

    3)Anything but making WW and Regina sisters

    Or Mal’s sister and I agree anything but that sister with Regina.

    I agree with Happy Endings–my favorite spec is she is related to Mal.

    Cora. Not a very pretty name, is it. Sounds like something breaking.

    Funny you should ask. Can you read?

    I really love watching their first meeting on YouTube. Their dialog is really snarky. They have great chemistry on scene, but I cringed at their flirtation.

    Well, well, well….look who Adam and Eddy have dragged back in at this most opportune time!!! All I can say is….#WICKEDSISTERS!!!

    And it’s so hilarious how much proof WickedSisters has, but it still doesn’t appease most of us to believe in it! Well, all I can say is…all the cards seem to be layed in WickedSisters favor, and I’m just gonna let Episode 18 confirm my theory! Thank you very much, and I will want every single cookie that was betted.

    #WICKEDSISTERS!!!!!

    WR, you can have your cookies, but just remember the bottle of laxatives looks an awfully lot like the bottle of vanilla. I’d hate to mix them up when I’m making cookies. 😈
