I think if they meet up with Rumple, that is bad news for Robin. Rumple doesn't help people unless there is something in it for him. So if he helps Robin, it's going to cost Robin something. I've also seen a lot of theories floating around that Rumple and the QoD will threathen Regina with hurting Robin and his family if she won't cooperate with their agenda.

I don't mind Marian being around as Roland's mom, as long as it's offscreen. I don't want to keep seeing her on the show. What I don't think will happen is Robin and Roland returning to SB without her (unless she is dead). Neither parent is going to be separated from Roland, so if she doesn't die or turn out to be a villian, I don't think they'll willingly return to SB unless all 3 of them can return. But if one of the QoD kidnaps them all and brings them back to SB, Marian might die from the freezing curse. I don't think they would have Rumple do that, they'll want to keep him somewhat redeemable and that would be going too far. Whichever one of these QoD they plan to kill off might do it though. You know they'll kill at least one of them by the end of 4b.

And yes, A&E (if I remember correctly) said we'd see what happened during those six weeks, so I'm assuming we'll see how Rumple was able to go back, and I wish we'd see Robin during those flashbacks, and how he settled in this new world. And also I hope Sean will be seen on set soon enough so we can start understanding what his storyline will be in 4B.

All I wish for. tbh, is for the Marian SL to end and for her to be gone, offscreen, not in the show anymore. I thought we'd be done with it at the end of 4a and now we are stuck with it for another hideous cliff hanger and into 4b. What A&E were thinking when they brought her back is beyond me, and instead of working on writing her out of story, now she's even deeper into it. UGH! Sorry for the negative but I am just so sick of this "non" triangle!

I really want to see Robin in our world! I want to see if he has a job, how he adjusts to things like technology and cars and living indoors, and of course how he is affected by being away from Regina. That might be asking too much though. I tend to want a lot more details than what they give us.

I'm still so mad against the writers for bringing her back, I'm sure they had NO idea what to do with her when they brought her back, they probably thought "hey lets bring back his wife as a plot device to create angst between Robin and Regina". So I hope they KNOW how to get rid of her now...

Maggie, you are probably right. It's wishful thinking on my part, especially since they are in the vault, it's prob from 4x11.

and yes there will be some deaths by the end of 4 b I agree

Robin and Regina yes. they are out. otherwise you can couont me in on some serious therapy sessions, i am not even kidding

lol I'll go with you as well, because 4B seems to be really angsty for OQ, and dont let me start on the fact that we still don't know WHEN Robin will be seen again

I know. I am too. and look how long its been to move on from this and we still havent you know whats funny tho? If they had brought back Daniel I wouldnt be this mad, weird isnt it? its probably because I am an evil regal before anything else and I just want Regina happy and not crying her eyes at.

And yes, I hope we will know something next week about Sean filming. I need some assurance we aren't going to be waiting any longer than 3 episodes.

sigh. I know right? still no news. but well they only start filming again next week so we have to wait a little while longer. Still I hope that by next week we will know for sure

I was thinking about this just a few days ago Suz. I was re-watching The Stable Boy and I was thinking that I bet there would have been a lot more excitement about this storyline if Daniel had been brought back instead of Marian. A lot of people love Stable Queen. Of course they wouldn't do that because then Regina would have TWO people in love with her (gasp!) and they'd never do that.

And yes, I hope we will know something next week about Sean filming. I need some assurance we aren't going to be waiting any longer than 3 episodes.

You know, and what I'm gonna say is very silly and very crazy, but Sean shaved his beard for his wedding, so the first that popped into my head was "damn, how many time it takes to grow a beard?", so I immediately thought "well, looks like he's not filming next week after all".
And it makes me sad, because I kinda thought they'd do some kind of parallels between S3 and this one, like they met in SB in 315, so I thought OQ would be reunited in 415. They kissed in 318, so I thought they'd be back together (or just kiss) in 418. But it looks like it's not happening...
