SG1 s10 (and a side of SGA s3) spoilers

retro_eidasThe spoilers are technically for SG1 season 10 (episode 3) and they're here. I include the SGA, however, because apparently Vala and Daniel are headed to Atlantis... acc. to the spoilers, specifically to team up with Weir on an investigation. And I don't know if it was revealed in SG1 already (since I've never watched that as faithfully), but this guy:
AKA, Moros, Head Atlantean Councilman from Before I Sleep ... he's apparently Merlin. Did NOT know this. This is the same guy who - rather bitchily imo (even if he was right) - wouldn't let Liz use the time machine again to go back to her own time to help out the doomed Atlantis expedition (Moros, fearing the repercussions to causality... which I guess is understandable). Of course, it worked out better the way it ended up as it would seem ... but the dude was still bitchy to me. Yet he's Merlin ... the same ascended Ancient who descended to create this superweapon behind the backs of the other ascended, thus breaking those stringent ascended rules... to make an ascended-killing weapon. There seems to be some hypocrisy here... or a means to show how very serious the situation must have been / is for such a stringent, bitchy guy like Moros to so thoroughly break the rules as he did / is doing.
Also, if I understand those spoilers correctly, hologram-chick from Rising (also showed up in Before I Sleep):
She's apparently Morgan Le Fay! ... AKA, infamously known in the Arthurian Legends as a rival to both Merlin and King Arthur (also popularly, Arthur's half-sister with whom he had an incestuous relationship thus spawning the evil Mordred, in some versions anyway).
I always knew those Ancients were (potentially) crazy fucked up.
This also has completely nothing to do with the above (well, the Ancients... it's random Ancient speculative blitherings), but I've been wondering about the breakthrough of Beckett's dewraithifying retrovirus... namely if it's really such a breakthrough. I have my doubts that the Ancients - in all their massive, godlike intelligence - hadn't already considered such a procedure themselves. It's possible they deemed it unethical or immoral, hence scrapped it.... OR, it's possible that they did try a similar procedure (hell, they probably knew the Wraith were their fault in the first place... maybe they attempted to rectify the mistake?). Possibly with less than favorable (aka, potentially disastrous) results, thus it was abandoned? Pure spec, but I had been wondering if the creators of the Hot Zone virus may be products of a possible / hypothetical dewraithified Wraith procedure. These dewraithified Wraith created the HZ virus out of bitterness and/or jealousy of the weak, pathetic humans their own creators - the Ancients - favored / protected. They who, technologically and intellectually, are closer rivals (in their POVs) to the Ancients than the much lesser evolved humans. Think of Frankenstein's monster or perhaps more accurately, Lucifer's jealousy of mankind and rebellion against God, thus eventually casting down Lucifer into Hell. These dewraithified Wraith were perhaps exiled or emprisoned when the Ancients found out what they were attempting to do, thus... Not welcome anymore amongst the Ancients, nor with their fellow Wraith and certainly not wanting to associate with lowly humans (not that their creators would have let them). They'd be like the (very embittered and potentially very dangerous... possibly to Wraith and humans) cast-off, forsaken children of the Ancients .... like the Wraith themselves and, in a way, the Pegasus Humans after the Ancients ditched them entirely defenseless to millenia of cullings since they had no other options (or so they claim). Yeah... I'd say that would probably make just about anyone/thing pretty damn bitter. That could possibly also be what Michael meant in a particular piece of dialogue in "Allies".
And, speaking of Michael, apparently Connor Trineer will back for S3. At least the first ep. It also doesn't specify whether he's still wraithified (slathered with make-up and prosthetics) or not. Oh well, just as long as he's back... *and* hopefully recurring, preferably or eventually without the wraithification because CT is pretty (and I'm shallow).
