Now, having said all of that, I am still pulling for an ending that frees Marion without killing her. I will guess that Henry (and maybe Roland?) will be involved, and Henry is the one person that can get reach Regina, because Regina does truly love her son. He convinced Regina to drop spell that would have killed Emma and Snow in Season 2, and Henry was the first one to believe that Regina was capable of defeating Zelena with Light Magic. (there are probably other examples, but these will suffice). So, while I can't exactly say HOW it will play out, I will go on record saying the the solution is going to somehow involve Henry convincing Regina to stick to her good ways. I doubt OUaT would have Regina kill Marian, in the present-day storyline. The writers went through a lot of trouble, to lift that burden off Regina's conscience, by having Emma bring Marian to Storybrooke. Can anyone blame Regina for being upset, at the moment? No.... but that does not mean, she will completely regress to her evil ways. We already know that she has a plan, to get Robin Hood back, but it probably does not involve murder. Regina cares too much about Henry, to throw their rekindled relationship away, for revenge. She probably just wants Sidney to dig up the dirt on, the seemingly innocent, Marian. This is OUaT, and everyone has some sort of dirty little secret. While it would be wonderful if Robin choses Regina, and Marian does not die.... I just do not see it happening. Mainly, because Marian has cheated death, one too many times already. She is also a remnant of the past, and does not belong in the present. Bravo.
