The sisters will also battle in present day as Regina tries to sabotage Zelena’s happy ending again to keep the Wicked Witch from running away with possible true love Hades (Greg Germann), but don’t expect bloodshed.
This makes it look like Regina is clearly in the wrong yet the show will play it as Regina having the right to do this. I hate when the show gives Regina a holier than thou attitude because it makes her more unlikable.
I guess it really all depends on Hades intentions….will he better her sister or make her worse? A Sibling’s job is to always look after the other, so if we see someone whose potentially making said sibling a worse person, almost like a bad influence….they’ve got to go. As romantic as it was, I don’t think Regina wants her big sister to go make “chaos” with the Devil himself. This is probably coming from more sisterly concern than vengeance.
A part of me feels that Adam and Eddy know that Regina and Zelena meeting in the past would be too guessable….they’re bound to throw in a pretty strong twist if it was able to make Rebecca Mader literally fall off of her sofa.

April 23, 2016 at 12:40 pm #321964PriceofMagicParticipantThing is though, this show presents true love as the be all and end all and that TL couple should be together. Hades wants Zelena to TLK him so his heart starts beating again. Hades using Zelena doesn’t make sense as a TLK wouldn’t work and therefore he’d be wasting his time so why bother? Hades must have genuine feelings for Zelena to think her TLK would work.
Regina deciding that she knows what’s best for Zelena reeks of Regina being a control freak. Trying to sabotage Zelena’s relationship and “happy ending” is only going to make Zelena hate her more and only further push Zelena into Hades arms. Neither Zelena or Hades give a crap about what others think about them so I don’t see how Regina’s actions would benefit in any way. If anything it would give Zelena MORE reason to cause “chaos” with Hades, not less.

But what if Hades isn’t exactly what Zelena needs in her life, he’s the devil for God’s sake, just as Rumple told Cora he could really only give her darkness….I can only imagine what fresh hell Hades has to offer Zelena which could potentially regress her back to the Season 3 Wicked Witch we met or even worse.
Regina looking after her big sister Zelena reminds me of an old Roseanne episode where Roseanne had to intervene with Jackie’s unhealthy relationship…when one sister sees the other entering into something that would be ultimately unhealthy and potentially dangerous, you’ve got to try to stop them. I don’t think Regina’s necessarily being a control freak, but more of a concerned sister whose trying to keep her big sister from literally dancing with the devil.
From Bex’s TvLine 4/22 Interview:
TVLINE | Hades (played by Greg Germann) this week lays out his plan to escape the Underworld. What does Zelena think about it?
I think she’s hashtag #torn, because part of her wants to try to trust him. He’s told her that she’s his true love and that True Love’s Kiss will restart his heart, and then they can go and leave everybody behind. But a part of her is like, “I don’t know if I want to leave Regina behind actually.” It’s a bit weird for her because she’s starting to have sisterly feelings for Regina, so it’s like, “Well hang on, if I get my own happy ending, it will be at the expense of my new family. It’s a horrible position to be in."If you go as far as you can see...you will then see enough to go even further." - Finn Balor

The thing is though, Regina showing sisterly concern would be okay and natural. However at the end of the day she can’t force Zelena not to be with Hades if that’s what Zelena wants.
However, the article states that Regina would try to “sabotage” Zelena’s HEA with her possible TL. If this had been any other characters say Snowing as opposed to Zelena/Hades, Regina would be firmly in villain territory. So why is it considered ok for her to sabotage Zelena’s HEA with Hades yet not Snowing’s with each other?
It’s hypocritical and I dislike it when the writers put Regina in that situation because it makes her look bad yet it’s supposedly okay because she’s a “hero”.
All the “heroes” (because you can’t call them that without the inverted commas anymore) are self centred and hypocritical. They only care about themselves and their family. Everyone else is irrelevant. Case in point, when Storybrooke was being destroyed at the end of S2, the “heroes” gathered their friends and family in the diner ready to poof out of there via magic bean yet there were happy to leave RumBelle and the rest of the town to suffer a terrible fate. Outside of Henry, I did not see one kid in that diner, and there is at least a classful of kids in Storybrooke because Snow taught them for 28 years! yet she was happy to leave them to die because they weren’t family and therefore didn’t matter.
