Assuming that Zelena needs heart, courage and brains to complete whatever mission she’s on, it’s a shame she doesn’t possess any of these qualities herself. And, since she doesn’t possess these qualities, as our heroes do, I predict her mission will backfire.
Agreed, and it’s making me feel a bit sorry for her.
[adrotate group="5"]March 28, 2014 at 1:07 pm #256370truestbelieverParticipantI DO definitely think Zelena’s trying to resurrect someone, but since basically every villain on this show (save Peter Pan) is motivated by love, which Zelena doesn’t really have for Cora, I’m going with guessing it’s her “True Love” she’s trying to bring back.
As to who her “True Love” is specifically, I’m thinking it’s the Tin Woodman; since he will be appearing in what appears to be Zelena’s centric episode (“It’s Not Easy Being Green”), but there has been no mention of him previously, I have a feeling he has/had some significance to her in the past, but that something bad happened to him, leading Zelena on a mission to resurrect him…
Knowing me, I’m probably wrong, but there you go. (Lol)

Side note, I just finished re-watching Buffy episodes 5×01 and 5×02 which also deals with resurrection. FYI. Lol. And that seal, actually reminds me Buffy as well.
March 29, 2014 at 3:41 am #256496GrimmsisterParticipantYea I think for sure you’re right whit the ressurection. Thats what Regina tried to do with her true love Daniel
March 29, 2014 at 7:51 am #256502GrimmsisterParticipantI just had a crazy thought.
Z says to Rumple when he asks her what she wants. That it is something he has searched for his Whole life or something like that right. Rumple has searched for a way to be reunited with his son his Whole life.. What if Z had a son or a kid and she is trying to be reunited with Him/Her?
the resurrection thing could tie into this. Maybe her baby died or was taken from her and put in some other realm like Neal and Rumples story. And Z is trying, by some magical Means were she needs the courage- the Heart- and the mind, to “ressurect” the baby… And so her interest in those babies, both Cinderella’s and what’s’name and the Charming baby is because she is trying to make her own baby come alive Again through them.. or, well you know what I mean right? 😀
crack theory forming!!
March 29, 2014 at 9:33 am #2565173princessesParticipantMy crack theory is she does want to resurrect her child she was separated from, Graham! She had him at 15 or so. She is 4oish now. He was 25ish. Raised by wolves. They were hoping to bring him back for finale. She is mad at Regina for killing him & having everything she wanted.

The show is feeling particularly parrallel-y (technical term) at the moment, with them seeming to set up present day representations of the traditional Oz characters and stuff, and I think it was Lana who said in an interview that Zelena is very much like S1 Regina at the moment, so I could definitely see them paralleling Regina’s desire to bring back Daniel with Zelena’s mission being to bring back a dead lover as well. It could work really well thematically if we’re seeing Regina finally moving on and loving again (like Daniel told her to) and we have Zelena stuck in the must-resurrect-lost-lover mindset as a means to show just how far Regina has come.
Perhaps Zelena is somehow aware of Regina’s failed attempts, so she’s gonna try a different approach, so as an added bonus to the resurrected lover, she also gets to rub it into little sister’s face that she succeeded where Regina had failed. Zelena has that chip on her shoulder about how Regina got everything, so it would be fitting for Zelena to be striving to one up Regina in some way.
So instead of just going after a magical heart, Zelena’s after the trifecta, she’s gonna get a heart (I currently think she wants Emma’s, because it’s the strongest heart ever, but she’ll have to find a way to manipulate Emma into wilfully giving it up, because it can’t be taken), she’s gonna somehow impart all of Rumple’s wisdom to her man, (maybe she plans to make him the next DO?), and she’s gonna do the same with Charming’s courage, so she’ll end up with the smartest, bravest, most lovey lover man there ever was.
And she wants the Snowflake so she and her zombie lover can run off and be a happy little family unit.
As to who her “True Love” is specifically, I’m thinking it’s the Tin Woodman; since he will be appearing in what appears to be Zelena’s centric episode (“It’s Not Easy Being Green”), but there has been no mention of him previously, I have a feeling he has/had some significance to her in the past, but that something bad happened to him, leading Zelena on a mission to resurrect him…
Agreed.
My crack theory is she does want to resurrect her child she was separated from, Graham!
I do think Graham is kinda sorta involved, but I think he was their original plan for who was gonna be her lost lover. In the book, it was the Witch of the East who enchanted an axe which caused the Woodman to lop off all his body parts and eventually basically lose his humanity. Regina is essentially our Witch of the East, being the sister of the Witch of the West, and she took Graham’s heart which was basically robbing him of his humanity. Also it adds a little bit of extra spice to the vendetta if the guy Zelena wants to resurrect, she needs to resurrect because Regina’s the one who killed him. Also – Huntsman – Woodman – sort of a perfect fit.
If it turns out that IS what they had in mind for Graham’s role, then Eddy was correct in that interview, I will absolutely weep for what could have been. *sigh*
March 29, 2014 at 2:37 pm #256575WickedRegalParticipantI’m most positive that Graham was Zelena’s one true love….and her fate worse than death would have been living without him.
#WITCHHUNTER! What could have been…
They would have potentially been my Second loves….

March 29, 2014 at 4:26 pm #256586thormParticipantWell I know that Graham coming back, and it probably will soon. So, it’s possible.
But if Zelena resurrect him, she will do it because of Regina…
He wasn’t Zelena’s love, I think.
I think she doesn’t want to resurrect Cora…
