Before Emma and Hook interfered with the time line Robin kept saying it was his fault. He put her into harm's way.

That could just mean he should have never brought her along on whatever job got her captured. I always assumed she was killed during a robbery, not captured then executed.

I was actually expecting Marian to be the next villain (before I knew it was Marion). Regina walks into the diner, sees her, her eyes get big... "No!  You're supposed to be dead!  Everyone run!" Regina launches a huge fireball at her, cut to black... that would have been a good season ender.

I don't think she *has* to die. I think she should, for Regina's sake, but I don't buy into the "she was supposed to die, fate will catch up". Maybe her fate was to be rescued by a time travel spell.

Also, I wonder if Marian won't buy into everyone else's new-found perspective on Regina. Marian will try to kill her, and it will be Robin Hood who has to put her down. I can see it now, Marion, holding Regina from behind, dagger to her neck. Robin pleading with her not to do it... Marion screaming she has to... Robin fires, arrow goes SWOOSH, right past Regina's head, the air causing her hair to flutter about, then *splat* right between Marian's eyes. Even better, Marian could be like, "To prove you love me, shoot her." Regina's pleading with him not to do it, and Robin replies that he has to, aiming the now. Regina tells him that she loves him, and he shoots the bow... And hits Marian. YAY OUTLAW QUEEN!

And Tinkerbell just smirks and says, "I told you so."
