If this is true, and Robin does die, I have no idea as to what their endgame is with Regina. First, her first love is killed. Then, after believing she has to destroy Snow White, she kills her father. Later on, her first love comes back. She’s forced to kill him. Her mother comes back. She’s tricked to kill her. She finds her soulmate. He ends up having a child with her sister. Then he dies. This sends a strong message of misogyny, as the writers seem to have a horrible amount of fun with hurting Regina. What kind of message does that send? I’m not saying that they should tie Regina’s happiness to a man, but what’s the point of putting her through MORE pain and have her regress? Also, there’s an eerie real-life parallel between Emma and Regina. If Robin dies, he’ll have died in the season he became a regular. The same happened with Neal, who died in Season 3.
Nine times out ten, there are one or two routes.
Evil Regina: This sends Regina back spiraling out of control, whether it’s after Zelena or the Charmings, depends on who ends up being responsible. If it’s the Charmings, it may end up being Henry who is her undoing, giving his mother peace through death or something like that, it would be really icky but would somewhat parallel Regina killing her father and accidently killing her mother, but Henry would be helping his mother to move onto a better place because she was ultimately destroying herself. A final RegalBeliever scene that would parallel Regina and Henry Sr. Last Scene, where Regina tells Henry how proud she is of him and to never lose hope before she walks off into the light where her parents, Robin, & even Daniel are waiting for her……..much like Les Miserables’s Fantine, Regina would find peace in death.
Or if it’s Zelena who she goes after, I can see a Pan/Rumple sort of scene where Regina sacrifices her life to kill Zelena. And more than likely it will be Regina holding Zelena in place, pleading with Emma to destroy both of them, thus the sisters die together….a very similar scene had been done in the Originals when Esther sacrificed herself to kill her sister Dahlia.
Good Regina: This Regina would not be going after anyone, instead she’d fall into a depression and her son and family helps her rise from the ashes, and move on thus having the support she didn’t have back when Daniel first died. And if Zelena is serious on being redeemed, then Regina while raising Roland, would help Zelena raise Baby Greenbean, thus forming a bond between the sisters who in the end will have only each other and their children, and family.
And after all is said and done, no doubt they will proceed to finish off Rumple probably as the Final Big Bad, which will be when he no longer can contain all of the Dark Ones and must either sacrifice his life to destroy the darkness forever and die a hero, or he will be destroyed by Emma Swan.
Either route, one thing I’m sure of is that Lana Parrilla is pissed about what they’re about to do to her character.

March 8, 2016 at 9:22 pm #318505RumplesGirlKeymasterCorbin makes a good point, though. At some point this is torturing a character. They’ve done it to Rumple too.

It’s really official, Regina Mills is the Meredith Grey of OUAT….has been through so much torture and trauma, it’s a wonder she’s even still sane in the mind. If it wasn’t for Henry, Baby Greenbean, & Roland(who she now has to raise), I’d rather Maleficent, Cruella, and Ursula just take Regina and say sayonara to Storybrooke….Queens of Darkness go on a cross country road trip!

March 8, 2016 at 9:49 pm #318508MatthewPaulModeratorThe whole Author plot of Season 4 is feeling ironic now. Regina’s character really has been screwed over the most, aside from perhaps Rumple, and no matter how far she’s come, the writers continue to punish her. Just when is enough enough?

When she’s dead….I’m really starting to wonder if Regina herself will bite the dust in Season 6. Rumors are circulating on twitter that Robert Carlyle is sticking around for Season 6, but after that he’s retiring…still nothing but rumors, but if it’s true…whose to say they won’t take them out together?
They claim she’s one of their favorites, well hell, if this is how Adam and Eddy treat their favorites, I’d hate to see how they treat their least favorite characters.
Then again…there is small hope that this is not about OUAT.

But keep in mind, just because they kill a character, doesn’t mean they don’t love them. I mean there were some serious deaths at the end of Lost that were so brutal and heartfelt and tears everywhere……….I don’t think they have the balls to kill Regina, or any of the main cast aside from Rumple. So if they actually kill Regina in the show’s final moments, I may get up and applaud if it’s done well. Aside from Neal, they are wussies when it comes to killing off characters, never mind main characters.
March 9, 2016 at 3:10 pm #318581PriceofMagicParticipantSeason 6 might be the last season of the show. Lost only ran for 6 seasons plus A&E have other shows they probably want to focus on like the Friday the 13th tv show.
I’d be quite annoyed if they killed off Robin and left him dead. Granted he’s not the most dynamic of characters but he has two young children, to permanently kill him after the “heroes” spending the half season rescuing Hook, who’s a lot less deserving, from death is an absolute kick in the teeth. It firmly puts Hook in “creator’s pet” territory. Considering he’s such a divisive character as it is, to do that wold only make him more unlikeable.
They can’t even take the old Buffy route of magic death vs mortal death aka Buffy could be brought back because she was killed by magic and thus it was an “unnatural” death whereas Tara couldn’t because she was shot and there fore it was a “natural” death.
Neal was killed by magic and wasn’t brought back whereas Hook was stabbed through the chest and was brought back. Whichever route they went, Neal’s and Hook’s manner of death would contradict it.
I hope they don’t try and make Regina go all Dark Willow.
All magic comes with a price!
Keeper of FelixMarch 9, 2016 at 4:33 pm #318591NordicaParticipantMakes no sense whatsoever to kill off Robin. If the blind item is for OUAT and a central character will indeed be killed of, which the spoiler pics indicate, I think it’ll be Snow (even though she was on set). All the Robin rumors could be a smoke screen for them killing off the original lead of the show, the character who started it all. It makes sense, since Ginny is having her second baby and probably doesn’t want to renew her contract (after the 5-year obligation). Wouldn’t make sense that Sean would want out, since he just became a regular last season. Also, killing off Regina’s true love yet again is a very poor choice of storyline. Killing off Snow, will make everything shake. My guess is she’ll make a sacrifice for Emma, so she can have a life with her true love. And then Snow may come back – Hades may release her.

Actors take one year contracts all the time. And then there’s the budget to consider. Get rid of the leading actress or get rid of a guy that has gotten progressively less and less to say and do over the past few episodes?

Has Ginny indicated that she wants to take time off work or scale back in relation to having another child? If not then this is a lot of assumptions about her commitment to her work and about how Josh and Ginny split up parenting. Maybe they’re going to kill off Charming so Josh can stay home with the kids!I would hate to see Robin go simply because it would be needless character torture for Regina, but I doubt it would be Snow unless they want to come back full circle and make S6 about Charming finding Snow again. Anyway do we know this blind item is about OUAT?
