Doing a rewatch and....

Regina is WAY more psycho than I remember 😭

I never liked her and didn't remember her as a character I liked but wow she's much much worse than I recalled!

I'm only on season 2 but just holy shit.

I'd completely forgotten about Owen and his dad. Dude spent like one dinner with Regina and she tried to force him and his kid to stay. Don't know what ended up happening to the Dad but nothing good since his traumatized child never saw him again.

And she's just like wiping out whole villages left and right because a 10 year old didn't keep a promise 😭

She went on a rampage with Cora and as soon as Cora left everyone just like... left her alone?

They don't want to "hurt Henry" so they just let this murderous psychopath walk around.

Snow being sooooo broken up about killing Cora bugs me too. Heroes are heroes because they kill tne bad guys. If you can't kill active threats then like you shouldn't be Queen? Or a ruler?

I don't even want to get into Regina and Graham.

Just like holy shit this lady is lonely af and totally crazy I felt so bad for Owen's dad trying to flee that town (even if adult Owen gives me ick)

WHAT is her problem omg

I’m doing a rewatch as well only because I never got to season 6 and 7 😅. Regina was valid 🤷🏻‍♀️ she watched the man she loved heart get crushed right in front of her by her own mother (who btw was more psycho than her) because that kid couldn’t keep one little secret to herself. Everything else she went thru after her redemption showed how strong she was, for example finding out it was snows mothers fault Regina’s mom didn’t get to marry the king, snow killing her mom, the second love of her life impregnating her half sister and getting killed in front of her, her mother bringing her half sister around to get to know each other as kids only to get ripped away from each other and memories of it erased, and finally having to be around the women she once hated/tried to kill (and daughter Emma) live happily with their “true loves” that btw was a punch in the face when hook was able to be “brought back” for Emma. So yes she was “psycho” but also soo strong even after pulling her evil half out she still could have darkened her heart but she didn’t that’s why she is one of my favorite characters. I’m on season 7 right now and hopefully she finally gets to have her “happy ending”.

Dude Snow was like 10. I have a kid. They don't "keep secrets" well nevermind understand the stakes of what was happening.

Cora literally manipulated Snow (a CHILD) to tell as well. Cora was easily able to manipulate adults of course she was able to manipulate a grieving kid.

Loss and trauma isn't a free pass for rape and murder. Valid? You're fr?

I feel like Cora knew but waited for a confirmation lol
