I agree - but at the same time, she's willing to kill them without knowing the Rumple connection... Seems to me like if she was so concerned for his family, she wouldn't have sided with Cora in the first place.

Except that I get the feeling from the first promo that maybe... just maybe she's only helping Cora so she can get rid of her. She seemed awfully irritated with Cora, while she was digging for the dagger. And the way Cora phrased her suggestion "Get Rumple to kill anyone you wish." almost makes me think they're (the writers) leading up to Regina using it against Cora, instead.
