Merlin's weapon is not....pegasus project spoilers

[FallenAngelII]

It damages humans.

[GreyFox]

Daniel already has the answer... buried in the remaining ascended knowledge deep in his subconcious...

this may be why he

Spoiler:

becomes a prior later in the season in order to advance himself far enough to be able to find it at will

just my thoughts...

nice theory

[cpgfilth]

Not on those planets, not in the MW, not what they think it is, not the blood stone. Jeez.

"...the droids your looking for."
"...on your plane of existence."
"...powered by D batteries like the manual says."
"...going to help you."
"...compatible with Windows XP."

[Armagaiden]

She wouldn't tell us which planet NOT to go to, she'd tell us which we should go to. I think she was about to tell us that the weapon is not something we're expecting, but rather in an unrecognizable form.

Umm, NO. I can already see this thread blowing this quote WAY outta proportion creating wild theories.

She WOULD say it's "not" at one planet because that's a good way in attempting to get around the acended's rules because directly telling us would make them take her. Therefore she was attempting to further indirectly tell us by saying where it's NOT at. Clearly the ascended ancients still didn't like this and felt enough was enough on her little "walking the line".

Reading way too much into this..

Wild theory, maybe Merlins weapon is actually a sentence that forces the hearer to block all power that the Ori might gain from them. Or forces them onto the path to ascension thus enforcing the Ori's promise and ending their worshippers time on this plane.

But all those aside do you think it is possible that the weapon is intelectual in nature and not physical? Like the Holy Grail is just where it is carried, like a recorder.

Umm, NO. Because Morgan clearly stated that this weapon is capable of destroying Ascended beings, not just Ori. That means Ascended Alterans/Ancients and Ori.

[White Knight]

I think it's pretty obvious what she was going to say:

Spoiler:

"Merlin's weapon is not necessary. We've already called Jack Bauer in, he should have the Ori situation handled by the end of the day."

I'm such a fanboy.

[Ldynwaitin]

Just wondering what kind of weapon needs to be built to defeat spiritual creatures on another plane. In other words, once you have said weapon in hand who do you point it at?

Since they said that the Ori get their power from their worshippers perhaps the weapon doesn't attack the Ori themselves, but their powersource..."We who say 'Hallowed are the Ori'"

Attack their worshippers and cut off their power supply. After all, they are coming to our galaxy to get more worshippers, or is that batteries? Drain the batteries and you stop the Ori energizer bunny.

Whatcha think?

[Bossman]

Well, in "Camelot" Kvasir clearly stated that Merlin's weapon is in fact an energy transfer device similar to a ZPM, which basically "cancels" ascended beings by channelling energy into their dimension.

As far as what Morgan was going to say, we'll probably just have to wait for "The Quest" to air to find out.

Maybe it's a single word, possibly NI? Hmmm, we'll know if Priors start demanding shrubberies.

[EyeStrain]

Merlin's weapon is not the SANGRAAL!

Sangraal+Dakara weapon= ascended weapon

[ZPM_Plant]

ah, finally someone asking the right question.

she did give him, presumably, the names to 2 planets, along with the gate addresses.

now she could have meant one of two things: daniel had the answer to the real question he was asking, or he had the answer to the question he initially asked. make sense?

i personally think that she was going to say that the weapon is not:
a weapon
what they're expecting
what they're looking for (as in its not the holy grail)
what they need to defeat the Ori
where they expect
or where she told them.

so i hit them all
lol

imagine if merlin hid the anti-ori weapon in the ori's home galaxy? its often said that they best place to hide something in right under the seeker's nose.



a different note: imagine if we, along with the asgard, could buil an anti-replicator style gun that fired the same amount of energy as the supergate's kwoosh, thus when fired at an Ori ship, the ship is no more.

Nice analysis IrishPisano! I think that "what they need to defeat the Ori" is the answer. Or to expand upon this, that they will need something else in addition to what Merlin created.

[Skate Zilla]

I LOVE that theory.

that theory is void, TV guide interview onfirmed

Spoiler:

the Prior Daniel is from an Alternate Reality...

as for Morgan, she done told them the 2 planets it could be on, so telling them which one its not after the dialog she went through wouldnt have triggered the others, it had to be some import detail like..


Merlins Weapon Is Not ..... Finished, Real, All We Need, What We expect... etc etc



I Honestly think Merlin would have designed it to function and require another componet which is hidden.. or was hidden (Dakara)

[rarocks24]

The location of the superweapon is on Earth. I'm telling you, it's going to be on Earth.

If I'm wrong though, you may green me at your leisure.
