    This Sunday on Once Upon a Time, as the clash with Hades came to a fiery head in Storybrooke, one hero was not left standing.

    Because when the former Underworld overlord (played by Greg Germann) went to “end” Regina (Lana Parrilla) using the mighty Olympus Crystal, Robin Hood jumped in front of his love to save her life, driving an arrow into his own existence in the process.

    Here, Sean Maguire shares his surprise at the deadly twist, reflects on his two season run as the Prince of Thieves and shares insight on a pair of scenes that didn’t make it to air.

    TVLINE | Did you get any assurance up front that you’d ultimately have a heroic death, or is that something you discovered later on?

    We discussed the way in which he was going to die, and Adam and Eddy’s reasoning for it. As I said, my job is to serve what they write down. This is not a show where the actors collaborate on the writing process; it’s very much the design of what Adam and Eddy want.

    I’m sorry but this REALLY sounds like Sean isn’t happy about how this went down.

    TVLINE | Right, he now has a little a sister to hang with!

    Yeah! [Sadly] And now they’re orphans. I hope somebody’s going to look after them now that Mom and Dad are dead.

    Sean is a class act and I’m glad he get this.

    TVLINE | And if Adam and Eddy ever want you back for a flashback and you’re available, is that something you’d be open to?

    I don’t know…. I’ve been asked to go back to shows that I’ve been on before and I’ve never done it, because I tend to feel that once I’ve played a character, I’ve done that. But you never know. I never say never, but at the moment I’m looking forward to a new challenge and a new chapter. We’ll see!

    I think his relationship with A and E is a bit sour right now.

    TVLINE | Did Lana have a particular reaction to the news?
    She was upset, and surprised, and shocked…. We have a great relationship and a great partnership, and we have good chemistry. It’s always sad, the end of a job but I remember finishing on [the ITV drama] Scott & Bailey and saying goodbye to the cast thinking, “I’m sad to be leaving this one,” but then I ended up on Once Upon a Time. It will be interesting to see what adventures are next.

    My heart hurts even more…

    Im confuse, Sean said that Robin kids are orphans that both mom and dad are dead, what??? But the baby has zelena, right? dont tell me they will kill her also on the season finale?, i think there was a pic Bex posted where zelena appears to be on the floor in a strange position,but than that would be the most stupid thing.

    This just dawned on me but…

    We had some really nice material of me with my son and saying goodbye to Little John…. I was a little disappointed that the episode we shot wasn’t the one that I saw last night. But again, that’s television and there was a lot of story to tell.

    If Robin was totally obliterated, how did they shoot a scene of Robin saying goodbye to Little John?

    I believe Sean clarified in another interview that he meant he had one final scene with Little John and Roland, when he returned to SB in the beginning of the episode. It was the scene that we saw set photos of, but was cut from the final episode.

    ^ Yeah, he clarified in the very next paragraph actually:

    TVLINE | What do you mean by his “goodbye” to Little John, if Robin died on the spot…?

    Actually, that’s not correct — it was me coming back [from the Underworld] and seeing Little John. He had been looking after Roland, so it was more of a reunion than a “goodbye.” But again, because Jason Burkart (Little John) is a lovely actor, and I love Raphael Alejandro…. It would have been nice to have those scenes seen by the audience.
