I too think it is extreme to say Regina has no where to go. What do they do kill Regina now? That would be the last straw for me and I think it would break twitter with angry fans. Regina has her own internal story but on the other hand romantic relationships are a big reason why I watch tv shows. Without it it seems empty. Regina needs someone who sees his world in her. Emma has hook. He totally puts her first and snow has charming. Its not fair to leave Regina as the odd one out. Even Rumple still has a chance with Bell and has a child coming. It feels like a punishment on Regina and many of her fans and Sean's of course.

The writing of the episode was just horrible. It was stupid for robin and regina to go and confront Hades alone. The baby wasn't even really in danger. The episode had no suspense just a sudden bang and the fans realised robin was gone. Either they brought Hook back the way they did to put the fans against each other or they were very lazy in not realising the ramifications. Either way it was awful. Now I like Hook very much so I wasn't one rooting for him to die but the way they did it felt like a punch in the teeth.

I want Regina to find love again either by bringing Robin back or with someone else. Love was always something Regina craved for and its a big part of the show. I must say though I don't want the old robin baby storyline back. I still cringe every time I remember robin saying 'my daughter' to Regina. The fact that he moved on with the person he thought was Marian so quickly. It doesn't point to soulmate or true love. If you compare it to Charming when he had lost his memory even then he couldn't move away from Snow. My point is if they bring robin back they need to go into a totally different direction and repair the relationship. They also need to show Robin as the smart heroic person we know from Disney. He has been depicted as too weak and undecided. I want Robin back and back to the outlawqueen of season 3. It was lovely then. Also in the finale of season 4 the scene in the tavern with Robin and Regina it was wonderful and great acting by Sean in my view.

I am extremely disappointed but to say Regina is done is going too far. Lana deserves better and the show would lose greatly without her.
