There’s some evidence for that. Electrical wire, though? Cellular biology? Not to mention modern English. I’m convinced Merlin’s been passing the time by scrying.
Merlin could apparently see what was going on in Dreamland. That’s how he knew Felicity was dying and Alex had returned with Excalibur and its sheath. Kids visit Dreamland constantly and bring with them news of what’s going on, on Earth. That’s how Paddington knows all his dance moves. All Merlin would have needed was to listen in on some kid who was fascinated by electricity and knew all around it as he explained to somebody in Dreamland how it worked, and he’d be up to date.
Food! My beard, but it’s been ages since I had a good meal… or any meal! Let me just adjust this portal to take us to a popular place of Celtic refreshment of which I have heard in my visions. A place called MacDonald’s!
I’m thinking she’s near where Merlin’s tree was. which was not far from Alex and Dan’s home? Didn’t the elven king and queen take Niviene there right after Alex snatched her from the pond? That would put Nicole not far from Dan, then, who is still bodily sleeping, right?
Watch him go through the portal to visit his girlfriend under the sea, only to discover that he’s on the wrong side again.
… the taste of baked potatoes?
A Klondike bar?
If he would just ask, Nicole could tell him where Niviene is and the portal sequence to get to her.
Hem, I hate to be that man but… How can Merlin know about electricity?
In the real world, electricity was known to ancient Egyptians. So, wise Merlin should know that.
I didn’t know that! No more issue then 🙂
Twinkies!
Yep, tell ’em about the Twinkie, Ray.
“And that thing is freshly-baked donuts! Man there was not a single donut in limbo, can you believe that?”
Because, magic, obviously 😉

“A double cheeseburger!”
A cuddly wombat!
Love these comments! =)
Otherwise, man, what a Friday cliffhanger this would have made.
Also, I wouldn’t be surprised if Merlin took the portal with him, and I think Gil is in deep kimchi.
This is where we find out that Merlin was Darth Sidious all this time.
UNLIMITED POWAAAAAAAAAAHH!!!
A scene in Austin Powers comes to mind.
Duh du DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUN

I knew that last line would invite all sorts of comment when I read it, and you have not disappointed me! 🙂
Nicole shouldn’t wait for him asking and shout it already. Seriously, what is she doing on this page?
He needs to go find Niviene and save her life…who knows how long she’s going to keep in that bathtub???
maybe Merlin will pass through the portal, close it, leaving Nicole behind with no passport and no way to get home. 🙂
This would also explain how he know enough about biology to know he’s got cells, as well.
Greeks, too.
chocolate that melts in your mouth, not in your hand?

That’s a big Twinkie! Hehe. Nice reference! Hehe.
A MLT: a mutton, lettuce, tomato sandwich, where the mutton is nice and lean, and the tomato is ripe. They’re so perky, he loves it.
How about a nice MLT…
These comments….. LOL!
Er…where is he leaving Nicole? Is she in England?

What does Merlin desire most of all???
i’m surprised it took so long for this comment to get posted. unlimited power was my first guess…
Crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and hear the lamentation of the women! (Conan the Barbarian)
France.
And that one thing is to go to the bathroom!
He’s got old dude prostate and has not peed in a millennium. This morning wizz is going to take awhile.
where the mutton is nice and lean and the tomatoes are perky!
He knows what cells are?
