    the killing of Baal

    this has been annoying me for a while now.

    The start of the movie: Do they have the real Ba'al or the last clone? If it is he clone, then the real ba'al went into the past and changed history. thats when everything/one starting vanishing inc the clone as baal would have no need for them in the altered time line.

    The end, baal still travels into the past but dies in 1930 ish. Why are they at the extraction of the last ba'al clone if he died in over 70 years ago and only created the clones a few years ago.......

    I cant get this out of my head. If, it was the last clone that went into the past then there is no problem as the clone was killed and ba'al had his snake taken out...

    so in short was is baal or baals clone what went back in time???

    It was future baal that was killed on the ship, and clone ball that was killed in the extraction, the future baal must have went back to the real baal that was in the past or the orgional baal. future baal must have helped past baal conqure the galaxy that way the baal that was already in 1939 could have known everything that future baal had known.

        The Extracted Ba'al was a clone.

        The Time-travelling Ba'al was the real Ba'al (who was then shot by Cam).

        I assume Ba'al travelled back and killed his 1939 self; would be easier that way.

            In 1939 there were two real Ba'al's one that went back in time, and the one from that time. I presume that he stayed on Earth for a little while getting the knowledge he needed then gave it all to his other self? I would say killed him, but then he would exist. geeze your right, head exploding stuff.

              Uhh, can we not have glaringly obvious spoilers in the title, folks? Please remember this name shows up on the forum index whenever it's the most recently posted-in within the board in question. And this is pretty darn straightforward in proclaiming the fall of a certain character, and a lot of people don't appreciate that, you know?

              I humbly request the topic title be changed to something more ambiguous.
              If you've seen a Jeff O'Connor or a JeffZero or a Jeff Zero or a JeffZeroConnor elsewhere on the net, there's a considerable chance it's me.

                  the guy who traveled in time was the real baal, the one executed on the tokra homeworld was just another clone



                  btw how did they extract a fully grown symbiont through such a small seringe ? surely thosz things can't be that flexible/compressible/whatever

                    From my understanding, the Baal at the Extraction Ceremony was a clone. The time-traveling Baal was the real Baal, who was shot by Mitchell. But that wouldn't change the fact that it's a clone that the Tok'ra is executing if Baal traveled back in time and died after he made his clones. In other words, Baal died in the past, but after he cloned himself. The only way I can think of in Continuum of Baal being the original in the Extraction Ceremony is if SG-1 prevented him from making clones to begin with.

                    To quote Captain Janeway: "The future is the past, the past is the future. It all gives me a headache."

                        Mitchell didn't want to take any chances, and I don't blame him. A head-shot was the best way to go IMO.

                        And yeah, thinking too hard about this time travel stuff can really give you a headache.

                          buuuuuut if the extracted ba'al was a clone then the human clone would have had no memories right? it was my understanding that the only reason the ba'al clones had memories was because goauld memory is stored genetically!

                            Now that I remember, when Vala killed Ba'al, and he was split in half, no symbiote ever came out of his head. Who knows; maybe that was not the real Ba'al either. He may not have wanted to risk his presence with so many system lords in one place.

                              I've never thought about that, three Ba'als?! It would make sense though, the past one, the future one helping the past one, and then the clone. I sometimes think that there might still be at least one more clone out there...
