What the .... Will as Marian's baby daddy? XD Where do people come up with these theories? Last year there was a theory that Peter Pan was Rumple's father. I read that theory online and thought, "Man, people are beyond stupid." Then that came to pass. Will being Roland's father is not any more far-fetched than Pan being Rumple's. Quite the contrary.

Not all fan theories turn out to be true, though. However, I did not mean to give the impression that I was writing off the theory because it sounds too far-fetched. Mostly, I find that theory impossible because of how the show has already created a strong (past) relationship between Robin Hood and Marian as well as Will and Ana. And for the writers to just throw in, "Oh, yeah, and Roland is really Will's biological child that he had with Marian" would just seem out of nowhere and would come off like its only in-show impression is to shock viewers and cause unnecessary drama.
