Perhaps the Multi-episode arc for Robin Hood is where the Evil Queen ressurrects a deceased Robin Hood, creating her own evil clone (I suppose thats what you can call it) and basically has him resenting Regina, in love with her and willing to kill the Storybrooke residents.

In the end, Regina's forcedd to destroy her true love to put him to rest, merging back with the Evil Queen come the Season Finale and possibly destroying herself and the Evil Queen within her to finally have her happy ending (via flashforward to an afterlife where she's in the tavern with Robin)

A funerals held, Regina is put to rest beside Robin's grave. Snow proclaims that Regina may have been the Evil Queen but she'll always be a hero to her and the rest of the residents as the sacred town she cursed them within has become their home and will always be their home. This leads to Snow taking control of the town, becoming the Mayor as forshadowed in Season 4 and living happily with her family.

This ties the series together as a possible ending is the series doesn't get renewed as it ends with the death of the Evil Queen, giving Snow White her happy ending with the family she wanted to protect.
