Prototype question

[ColonelBob]

Im sorry if this has been asked before but i just watched prototype again (i download the eps dont tell anybody ) and im curious as to why Kahlek came back to Earth. The device on the other gates DHD would have sent him to a random planet, obviously not Earth as that was where he was coming from. So why did he return? He would have had to dial Earth himself to come back again but when he arrives he looks completley shocked. Can anybody tell me why this happened, or was it just a cheap way to kill off the guy?

they rigged the stargate back on that planet so that the wormhole would bounce him straight back to Earth, that is why he acted all suprised, they did explain that at the end, you might want to go back and listen again

Yep, Carter doing her thing again.

Woops, guess i wasnt paying enough attention

[babaganoosh]

The security device was meant to keep people from getting there, not going to the planet.

Like at the SGC, you don't need a code to go someplace from Earth, you do need a code to get back.

carter expained it when he returned

Although I did question why they actually let him come back instead of just closing the iris and letting him splat against it (unless they wanted to study the body, safeer just to let him splat though).

Khalek locked them out of the system before he left Earth, including iris control. When the wormhole opened, Walter clearly said, like he always does, “Iris will not close!” Thus, he didn't splat against it... Giving him a nice, bloody death... not to mention the fact that he did tell Daniel that, “one of us will feel the pleasure [of killing the other].”

Man, they got lucky that time.

I agree there. Khalek was an awesome foe. It's a shame he was ended so quickly.

Yeah, he was like Neo only...more powerful. Had he had time to master his abilities, he could have been very, very powerful. Talk about being able to pose as a god...he was both telepathic and telekinetic...lethal combination.

I'm sure that if the writers wanted him back in a future ep they would come up with the most convincing story to bring him back, which would be fun to watch

Oh, I can see it now... In addition to his telekinesis and telepathy, his healing powers allow his body come back from the dead.

Now that would be frighteningly awesome!

If I'd been Khalek, I would have stopped the evolutionary alteration just short of acsension. That way, I'd have (to quote General O'Neill) all the “freaky, super-cosmic powers” and the ascended beings wouldn't be able to stop me since I'm technically still human (like the Priors).

I love loopholes...

Maybe we can come to find out Khalek wasn't Anubis' only "son". I could definitely go for that.

not even that they could just say that there was multible research satations and on another was an exact replica clone in isolation and it became active when the first pod was taken back to the SGC soo he might not really have the memory of being in the SGC but he would still be just as bad because of the Genetic memory!

As much as I wish it were true, I believe it is not. Looking at the episode name "Prototype" I think it's safe to assume that Khalek was the one and only "son" of Anubis. A prototype is normally the first model of something, usually a test run to make sure everything works as planned. From the looks of it that prototype wasn't even finished.
