The Sapphic Theory

  • Regina and Naomi were lovers, though this was never explicitly stated.
    • This is ABC. It's Disney. We will never get confirmation.
    • Some things about this show are just not going to be cut and dry.
    • Too much circumstantial evidence points to it.
  • Regina was never sick. She killed herself out of grief over Naomi's death.
    • She never had a nosebleed.
    • She never showed signs of temporal consciousness travel.
  • Regina is the R.G. on Naomi's bracelet.
    • Naomi specifically asked Minkowski to tell her sister she loves her.
    • In some circles (military for example) 'sister' is a euphemism for lesbians, if in an environment where one does not wish to be public about their choice.
    • We were never told her last name; it may have started with a G.
  • When we saw Regina with the book upside down...
    • that was very soon after she heard of Naomi's death.
    • she was not paying attention to the book. She wasn't actually reading it, as she was lost in thought and grief stricken.
  • Regina wrapped herself in chains and jumped off the boat.
    • This is not in keeping with behavior of someone experiencing temporal consciousness travel.
    • Her attitude was not melodramatic or exaggerated. She did not behave as if she were insane.
    • She simply chose not to live any longer without Naomi in her life.
      • Even if I'm wrong, this version of events is a very dark and tragic story, but also kinda sweet and romantic.

Other Theories

  • She killed herself because of the "cabin fever" the ship's crew are experiencing.
  • Regina has "the sickness" like Rousseau's team.
  • Regina was trying to get back to the "other side"
  • The book she was reading was upside-down, suggesting that she was mentally stuck in the "upside down" realm (starboard-realm, dark-side, if preferred).
    • When she "committed suicide," she was actually trying to get back to the other side. As we know, the most effective way to get to the island was via submarine, under water.
    • By wrapping herself in chains, she was ensuring that she would sink fast enough to make it through to the "other side."
