I'm sorry, aren't you the one who knows the dragon's secret name? It's time to earn your keep.
Ah, yes. I may have exaggerated about that, slightly. Anyway, you didn't think that just by calling out its name, you'd suddenly be able to control it?
I don't know. Name magic is common in most mythologies. To know something's secret name is to steal its power.
So what are we supposed to do, start guessing?
Darrel, the dragon.
How about Smokey?
Perhaps Puff?
[annoyed]: Will you just give me a minute?
[Merlin revives from stasis]
Where am I?
Good question.
[to Carter] You look familiar. [pauses as he scrutinizes Carter] Guinivere! [hugging Carter] Oh my dear, it's been too long.
Uh, good to see you too.
[to Mitchell] Percival! [to Jackson] And Galahad! Oh brave knights, fortune indeed does smile upon me to see your faces again.
Looks like Merlin's drawbridge no longer goes all the way across the moat, if you catch my meaning.
What's that? Mordred? I might have known it.
We're wasting our time with this old fool! We need to get back to the gate so I can start reprogramming—
Be silent!
[Merlin waves his hand, and Ba'al loses the ability to speak]
Well how do you like that? The old boy still has some old tricks up his sleeve.
You have an extraordinary understanding of the ways of ascended beings.
That's because I used to be one.
The Human race cannot have evolved that far in only a thousand years.
That's because I had some help. Her name was Oma Desala.
[understanding] Oh, of course.
[Merlin has died, and the team is deciding what to do]
I told you, I could reprogram the dialing device.
[SG-1 looks at Ba'al]
His little trick with my vocal chords expired at the same time he did.
Yet another reason to mourn his passing.
[regarding Daniel] Hey, you have to tell him that he doesn’t have to do this. He’ll listen to you.
What team have you been on?
[to Vala, after Daniel downloaded Merlin's consciousness into his mind] The hard part of this team is not risking your own life, it's watching your friends take chances with theirs. Congratulations, now you're really one of us.
I'm going to be fine...
Look, you don't get fancy mindpowers unless there's been major redecorating going on inside your skull...
