I agree with CoolDudeAl. I'm quite defensive of whomever anyone attacks, but in this case it's pretty much pointless.

Don't cry over spilled milk, not because it's the past, but with so much behind them, it would be odd placement to randomly remmber that. The SB crew seem to forgive plenty of folks and we don't see them exact justice.

One can argue that the character development is shoddy (which it is for most characters in season 4), but randomly broing stuff that they should have addresses two seasons ago won't so anyone favors and it would be a terrible retread.

One can actually be more lenient of the mass murdering title which we all throw around. Regina was more of a tyrant and ordered the murders rather than killed them herself. She was a terrible ruler, but an indirect mass murderer. That's like calling the government leader that sent out the troops a mass murderer because the civilians they hit.

Also, she is Henry's mom whether you like that or not. I hated the whole back and forth Emma had, but they went past that and to go back to it is just stupid. When you grow up with someone in the parent position, you favor them usually above others. Henry would have a deep connection with Regina, that's why it hurts Henry with what Regina did to him once he started to remember. Emma decided to share Henry with Regina, so it all must have been settled (off-screen).

Robin's whole ordeal is a bit more weird, since he doesn't actually know what Regina did, so that's just him flirting, I assume. (He must have slept the entire Snow White adnventure, lol).

Everyone is forgiven and that's just how it works. Do I like it? No, not really. However, that's how they set it up and it would be awkward to do anything else. I mean, some fans want Emma to learn that Regina killed Graham.......why? That wouldn't solve anything whatsoever and is ahundred episodes too late to makle an impact.

Remember guys, Hook left Emma and Snow to die, attacked Belle, constantly lied to Emma; Rumple manipulated them, attempted to hat Emma, set a montrous woman after them, lied and decieved them; and much more form those they forgive.

So, it's not just Regina and a specific hate-train without proper evaluation of others is without tracks.

No more of that because it's off-topic.
