Well, we know Elsa is only around for 4A so if Marian is sticking around for the same arc, it makes sense that their stories are intertwined. The possibilities are endless and it's fun to speculate on what might actually happen.

Who or what will Elsa freeze, if anything? Will it be someone's heart, to be unfrozen only by TLK? Or all of SB? (Less likely in my book.) How will Regina and Robin and Marian deal with their situation? Much has been written on this board about this. Robin will return to Marian but want Regina and be torn. Eventually, he will make the choice, probably resulting in Marian's death, and will choose Regina. 4B will be the character development of both of them in dealing with the fallout and the consequences of that action. How will Emma and Regina handle their broken truce? Regina will struggle with her dark side and her past betrayals, but she will emerge to not forget, and not forgive, but to forestall judgement for the time being. How will Emma and Hook handle their new relationship? They will struggle with the fact that Emma saved Marian when Hook told her not to. Not to mention the normal New Romance stuff one has to deal with, including a son and possibly less than pleased parents. How will Elsa deal with the fact that Rumble had her locked in the vault for who knows how long? Will she be pissed? Or will she be thankful that he harnessed her so she couldn't unleash her destructive powers? And what about Rumble and Belle? Will she find out about his lies? And will she FINALLY do something about it? Did I miss anything? I'm sure I did.
