    The Chair

    Any speculation as to what role it will play?

    Also, what would happen it someone used it while body swapping back on Earth? Would the effects manifest in the Earth body or the body on Destiny?

    My first reaction was that it was a predecessor to the Ancient Control Chairs, rather than the repositories.

    Judging from what happened/was said in this episode though, I'm thinking that at some point Rush and Greer will agree to put him (Greer) in the chair. Whether that results in Greer dying or not, I'm not prepared to speculate just yet.

      Honestly,

      I have a feeling this chair will play a major role later on. While the chair might seem to be one thing, like most ancient tech it might actually do quite a bit more then what people originally believe it was designed for. Like the one that Daniel found in Merlin's lab, the fact it has a control interface might mean that you can actually selective pick and choose what you want to have added to your memory.

      I have a feeling this plot device is going to get alot of attention in the future.

        Agreed. It looked like an incredibly crude version of the control chair. I'm thinking that sitting in the chair will unlock and control the primary systems- they just found the bridge of the ship.

          I especially liked the chair's look - a cross between the Ancient style we know and love, and something out of a Saw movie.

          I'm not a betting man, but I have a sure thing that says the chair will come into play later on.

              Well here's a thought (WILD SPECULATION AHOY!):

              Suppose it is like a repository and a control chair all in one. Except, once you're out of the chair you don't remember any of the Ancient knowledge?

              That'd be kind of neat, and give the actors a chance to flex their acting chops as 'different' characters than their usual selves.

                It def looks like a control chair. Control power flow, ship, navigation everything else. IF the Destiny predates Antlantis and the MW gates, would there really be much of a repository anyway. Regardless they would need some type of way to control the ship.

                  I thought it looked like one of those chairs from the Matrix a little.

                      Maybe if Rush thought about what he said and didn't immediately say it was a repository, someone would have sat on it and used it. It would have fit the Rush style of looking out for number one more than begging for someone else to use it after knowing what it does.

                          Here's hoping Chloe dies, and stays dead like the alternate timeline Chloe. At least it will clear Eli's head (after the shock of losing his dream girl subsides).

                              Greer is awesome, might just be my favourite character. I sure hope the chair doesn't kill him
