Let's hope that Lanas hope is correct! link

I hope so. ^_^

Maybe, but if she ever finds out about Graham it will get ugly. I think that Lana is just speculating when it comes to working with Emma again.

@amshafe: look at this: link
She said: Wetpaint Entertainment: How do you think Regina has changed since season 1?
Lana Parrilla: I think we are going to see her in a very different life this season. She’s on the path to redemption! She’s tried every avenue and it doesn’t quite work the same anymore.

And check this out: link

They said: According to series creators Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz, regret and redemption will be a major theme for the season 2, most notably for Regina (Lana Parrilla). That is almost certainly easier said than done, as a lot of angry townsfolk might quickly turn into a full-on lynch-mob to repay the perceivably powerless Queen/Mayor Regina for her past and present crimes. Regina’s possible saving grace might be that bigger baddies are on the way – including her much more villainous mother Cora (Barbara Hershey)
