Lol I don't - it's just that these sneak peaks are very carefully picked to make the audience think one thing is going happen when in the full episode it turns out that the opposite happens! :)   They're used to maximise ratings - if a sneak peak shows that Regina's looking likely to die then it brings in the floating audience and followers that have fallen at the wayside for whatever reason.

Plus, in Regina's specific case, you have Louise Westie up the thread that's said Lana Parilla is all set to do season 3! And they're never gonna kill of Regina! They would lose SO many viewers if they did that!

So I think it's safe to say she won't die, panic yea not! :D

. . . of course I could be wrong! Now that WOULD be a hell of a finale!!
