I'm trying to pretend that Marian knew that provoking Guy was the only way to keep him from killing the king, that she knew options were limited. Other than that I find it pretty stupid to annoy a man holding a sword and I believe that nobody would do that, especially not Marian, so well.. at least she saved the king.
I was surprised watching her die, but well, many character from TV shows I love died and it often turned out interesting and good, even though the reasons for killing the character off were stupid and made me think 'wtf?' more than once. But I think killing Marian was intersting, because that way Robin lost the most important person in his life and this leaves a trauma. We know that Robin isn't very good at coping with that, so at least that will be 'fun' to watch. I'm actually looking foward to that.
I was more disappointed by Robin's response to Marian's death because in the finale of season one he was about to break down, and he would have if the Sheriff hadn't showed up. This time he didn't seem sad, nor shocked, nor broken, and this time she died for real..
But getting rid of Djack like that really annoyed me, because first of all she was a woman, and secondly the Saracen background made her an interesting character and I liked that she had a thing for science, because hey, we haven't seen many women beating the men at that game on TV, have we?
