I know this discussion hasn't been active for quite a few months, but I still found it necessary to share my opinion on this topic. Due to social media in November, Toby's fate was practically spoiled to all of the viewers. Keegan was obviously on set and all of the videos with Ashley and Troian pretty much confirmed that he will be returning for the last ten episodes of Season 7. If Spoby wasn't endgame, Marlene would have taken her opportunity to kill Toby off multiple seasons ago. I was hesitant before about Spoby being endgame, but now I'm very confident. As much as I love Toby's character and think he deserves stronger storylines like he had in Season 4, he's simply just a romantic interest in Marlene's eyes, and he would have been long gone if Spencer were to end up with someone else. Now for Yvonne, I'm concerned. Although I am a hardcore Spoby shipper, I don't want Yvonne to die. Kara Royster, the actress that plays Yvonne, is one of my favorite actresses currently and I think that killing off Yvonne is taking the easy way out. Caleb chose Hanna over Spencer. I want Toby to do the same and choose Spencer, not have her as a second choice after Yvonne's death. I really hope that Yvonne stays around, and if she ends up dying, I hope there's some logical explanation. If she was Uber A's accomplise, or had some sort of arranged marriage with Toby to cover something, that would be satisfactory. Other than that, I will probably be rather disappointed with Marlene.
I like this post, as it actually makes some very interesting points, such as the one where if Spoby wasn't endgame, then Toby would have been crossed out somewhere earlier in the series.
