- That would explain why he told Artie to keep it a secret from everyone.
- I was always under the impression that the real Brother Adrian was only trapped after Artie used the astrolabe, as in once the evil began working on him he went to the brotherhood's sanctum where Adrian was alive and well, then sealed them all in the painting so they wouldn't be able to interfere or help the other Warehouse agents. See the reply to the WMG below. Also, those repercussions were apparently already known, since the real Brother Adrian knows about them too, as he talks with Mrs. Frederic about them after he's freed. Presumably he just wasn't quite dead yet, and hung on long enough to give Artie the warning.
- Most likely, Artie was the one who trapped them. It explains how Brother Adrian was able to give Artie knowledge in the other timeline he wouldn't have had otherwise (it wasn't Artie's delusion, he just hadn't been trapped yet). Given everything Artie did do while in the Brother Adrian persona (such as arranging for Claudia's brother to relocate and taking artifacts out of the warehouse and shipping them places) it's completely reasonable to think that he could have gone out and trapped the Brotherhood to ensure they couldn't stop him. If not Artie, it would have to be some unknown, never mentioned, character with a knowledge of artifacts and knowledge of the Brotherhood who trapped them. That seems unlikely.
- The question isn't who can intimidate the other. Both characters have expressed the ability to feel fear and have at times shown that fear to others. The question is which character would blink first... as in, who can mask their fear of the other better? Frederic or Batman?
- See the WMG below this one. And this famous image◊.
- With the obvious exception that Amanda Waller isn't magically linked to Cadmus insomuch that she can't teleport in and out or to the side of whomever is employed there. Also, if Cadmus is destroyed, Waller won't die unless someone targets her for assassination. Aside from all that, Cadmus doesn't collect every weird thing known to the DC universe.
- This is canon, isn't it?
- Definitely canon. Joanne Kelly confirmed it.
- Canon on H.G.'s part, Myka's... probably not considering she has a secret crush on Pete.
- What, she can't be bisexual? After all, when Claudia lightly snarks about all the death in the S4 premiere which included HG, Myka chides her that she watched HG die and that quote: "...sometimes you lose people close to to you. People you love."
- Nobody said she can't be bisexual, but that's not the same as being in love. "People you love" was more likely a reference to familial love than romantic attraction.
- Wait, what secret crush?!
- Are you asking whether she has a crush on you know who or whether it's supposed to be a secret?
- What, she can't be bisexual? After all, when Claudia lightly snarks about all the death in the S4 premiere which included HG, Myka chides her that she watched HG die and that quote: "...sometimes you lose people close to to you. People you love."
- alternately: it will be Claudia since she's already a Gadgeteer Genius like HG was
- It probably will be Claudia since Mrs. Frederic has implied she's being groomed for something and HG referred to someone she knew as the Claudia of her time. If nothing else, Claudia's free pass in the warehouse is to keep tabs on her.
- "No Pain, No Gain" reveals that fame isn't a necessity for artifacts to be created. And that Claudia can sense when an artifact is about to be born. So maybe it's someone else.
- Then it must also have the Crystal Skull, the Lost Ark remake and James Woods
- James Woods is not in Warehouse 13. The Regents very likely used a mind-erasing device on him so he would not recall being there.
- Not necessary. James Woods is a former agent and current Regent of the Warehouse.
- Either Eddie Mc Clintock or Jack Kenny mentioned this theory in the commentary for Time Will Tell. The cast found it interesting, and did not either confirm or deny it.
- Jossed, now that Mrs. Frederic was killed with the destruction of the Warehouse.
- Not necessarily Mrs. Fredrick is older than Leena so her death doesn't change anything. If Leena had died it would have been Jossed.
- Definitely Jossed now. Leena is dead.
- Or is she? Seriously, we've already had one character return from the dead. There's no reason Leena couldn't come back sometime in the future.
- Good point. That remains true even past the series' end.
- Or is she? Seriously, we've already had one character return from the dead. There's no reason Leena couldn't come back sometime in the future.
- Then again, wouldn't Artie know about it if H.G. Wells was any of those things? Since there is nothing about it in the manual...
- It wouldn't be the first time Artie has hid some stuff.
- This would actually make some sense, as with one or two exceptions Wells' work after the point where Fem!Wells was bronzed started to feature less technology and more social commentary. It could be said that her "brother", not having all the science and inventions, had to abandon that side of the genre to a degree.
- L. Ron Hubbard continued to write books for many years after he died. There are always forgotten manuscripts and unpublished essays lying around after an author dies which their estate can have published.
- Played with by H.G. Wells herself. She never claimed to have written the books. In her first episode, she states that her brother wrote the books, she merely provided the science and the inventions.
- Right. We're dealing with a mythos in which Lucrezcia Borgia's consciousness is transmitted through her jewelry, and a magic teapot spontaneously produces ferrets, but sure, let's draw the line at the notion that the brain can maintain consciousness indefinitely while the body is encased in bronze.
- Well, yeah, you obviously can't stop age but keep brain activity. Its impossible, unless some brain-life support is in action. Not like anyone cares through...
- In episode 10 she says she wanted to "awaken in a different world" by getting bronzed, implying that bronzed people are not awake and that indications otherwise are writing mistakes (or else this is an Author's Saving Throw).
- Not really. Bronzed people aren't standing around watching the world go by. She said she could think, not that she could see. Even if she could, what's there to see? The inside of a box, being transported in a crate to the new Warehouse, minor changes in fashion? It's not a writing mistake of any kind.
- How is it an Author's Saving Throw? She still woke up in the future and just because that's what she used it for, doesn't mean that's what it is intended for. She didn't know she'd be conscious the entire time and after she went in, she couldn't tell anyone that she was conscious. I'm pretty sure not a lot of bronzed people are de-bronzed, so she could have gone in thinking that she'd just wake up in the future and then found out later, uh-oh, I'm going to be semi-conscious this entire time. How are the two points mutually exclusive?
- Many times, in science fiction, the notion has been posited that there is an aura of electrical signals throughout the universe that seems to function as relays like the synapses throughout the human brain. Furthermore, at a certain state of consciousness, or rather, unconsciousness, sentient beings (i.e. humans) have the ability to commune with that aura (i.e. exist: "I think, therefore I am") lending to the theory of not only heaven, but the concept of indefinite consciousness altogether.
- Confirmed, although it's a mental-only time machine. Also Jossed, as it is in no way new, and wasn't actually part of her plan.
- Jossed: She's a caretaker, someone who is linked to a warehouse to keep it 'alive'.
- Jossed. The goo is created by Global Dynamics of Eureka and therefore has no supernatural qualities.
- AHA! There's another, similar possibility:
- Amusing, but unlikely. For one there's no way to separate the canon of the Ghostbusters movies from the canon of the game. For another, supernatural events as big as the ones we see in the Ghostbusters franchise would be huge headline news around the world and would spark a decades-long debate about the nature of life, death, and metaphysics in general that would force us to question everything we think we "know" about our world. Yet whenever Pete and Myka are in the field they're always hesitant to even suggest to witnesses or suspects that something supernatural might be going on for fear of being dismissed as kooks.
- Not only that but Jillian and Gary from "Duped" are actually Jo Lupo and Claudia's cousin Zane Donovan from Eureka who, for some reason, act... like... completely different people. Well, hey it makes more sense than the Firefly theory since Eureka and Warehouse actually crossover.
- Jossed: Mrs Frederick has died after the destruction of Warehouse 13, seemingly due to old age once her caretaking bond with the Warehouse was broken
- Un Jossed. Mrs. Frederick is alive and well in Season Four.
- Specifically, she has an artifact that allows her to turn any doorway into a wormhole.
- My money's on those glasses.
- Maybe it's a perk of being a Warehouse caretaker.
- So the Warehouse itself is the artifact. Maybe 13 is the only warehouse to grant this ability.
- Or, more likely, someone you've never heard of.
- Pete will defeat her with the Power of Love.
- Jossed. Wells' genocide does not discriminate.
- Because secret organizations are incestuous like that.
- Let's add O2STK as well.
- It's pretty likely, if there are 12 regents that matches the established number of 05 personnel, and Warehouse 13 could be long-term storage for mid-range safes and some of the tamer euclids.
- This troper prefers the concept that the SCP foundation, the Warehouse, and the Department of Department of Control all compete for the same objects in a sense, Although both tend to just let the Warehouse go for anything historically connected, primarily competing with each other (unless the thing that needs to be secured is a large location, in which the Warehouse and Department of Control let the SCP foundation set up a site there, seeing as how the foundation is not as centralized as the other two)
- Myka's grandmother. Just because.
- Jossed, H.G. Wells' daughter is dead. Pete and Myka have seen the corpse.
- It is called "Reset". The implications here are obvious.
- Face–Heel Turn confirmed. She's now locked away somewhere.
- And she's Killed Off for Real now... we think
- And Reset Button pushed by Artie, and she's not dead again.
- Jossed: Warehouse 2 is still where it was centuries ago.
- The Warehouse is set into the side of a hill. Even if that doesn't account for all the total length, some downward movement might.
- The Warehouse automatically expands into the side of the hill, due to some Einsteinian tinkering.
- Gadgets would be similar yet separate from the more supernatural artifacts, allowing tinkerers such as H.G. Wells, Philo Farnsworth, Hugo Miller, Claudia Donovan, etc to work their magic without being six feet under. The artifacts are still in the warehouse because they too unstable for the open use like Farnsworth's Camera/Projector, or because they just have nowhere else to be like Edison's human-powered cart from the pilot.
- I would like to speculate that there are two kinds of Bronze Sector inmates: Preventatives and Offenders. A Preventative would be a person who would be at risk of crafting a potentially catastrophic artifact that could not be contained. An Offender would be a renegade individual who is in the loop about the Warehouses, such as MacPherson. Bronzing an Offender would indicate that the Regents are giving the subject a chance at parole, or simply because they cannot trust a single move the person could make using conventional prison methods. This troper isn't sure which category H.G. Wells should fall into as of Season 2's 9th episode, especially if she isn't telling the truth about her incarceration. We've yet to hear the Warehouse file version other than "she is a very bad person, much misfortune shall befall us."
- Perhaps Artifacts are actually Wonders, and being bronzed prevents one's Wonders from becoming Orphans.
- To clarify, Wonders are tied to the Genius that created them. And when a Genius dies any surviving Wonders of his become sentient, as well as developing terrifying new abilities.
- It seems a death could cause an artifact, it just has to be an extraordinary moment.
- There are artifacts from living people floating around out there but they haven't been bagged and tagged because they still belong to those people and the Warehouse doesn't interfere unless the artifact becomes a problem.
- Hitler's microphone, according to Jack Kenny, gives the speaker mind control powers.
- Warehouse 1: Macedonia note
- Warehouse 2: Egypt
- Warehouse 3: Rome? note
- Warehouse 4: Byzantine Empire.
- Warehouse 5: Ottoman.
- Warehouse 6: Spain through the Spanish Inquisition.
- Warehouse 7: Holy Roman Empire.
- Warehouse 8: Austrian Empire.
- Warehouse 9: French Republic.
- Warehouse 10: Kingdom of Prussia/German Empire.
- Warehouse 11: Russia
- Warehouse 12: British Empire
- Warehouse 13: America
- I've added some. I'm assuming that they were in places that were over-run or warehouses completely lost after the empire was defeated, absorbed, had regressed from it's former glory or were involved in revolutions or major governmental changes.
- HG stated she used to work at Warehouse 12, making it extremely likely it was in Britain. Most likely it was shut down during the blitz for fear it would be bombed.
- I've added some. I'm assuming that they were in places that were over-run or warehouses completely lost after the empire was defeated, absorbed, had regressed from it's former glory or were involved in revolutions or major governmental changes.
- Lucky Syfy has this nice list.[http://www.syfy.com/warehouse13/history.php?seasonid=1&episodeid=103]
- For those who are lazy:
- Warehouse 1 - Macedonia
- Warehouse 2 - Egypt
- Warehouse 3 - Rome
- Warehouse 4 - Huns
- Warehouse 5 - Byzantine
- Warehouse 6 - Khmer
- Warehouse 7 - Mongols
- Warehouse 8 - Holy Roman Empire
- Warehouse 9 - Ottomans
- Warehouse 10 - Mughal (India)
- Warehouse 11 - Russia
- Warehouse 12 - British Empire
- Warehouse 13 - United States
- Note that the Huns didn't necessarily hold the Warehouse — the Warehouse is just housed in the region controlled by the most powerful culture at the time. It probably lends some extra protection (for the Warehouse, from outsiders, and for the culture, from artifacts that could make them fall from power). The Regents have controlled the Warehouse ever since it was created in Macedonia.
- Maybe it MOVED with them. Damn, that'd be AWESOME.
- It was there only for a very short time, just as long as they were settled in Europe.
- The Egyptian Warehouse is also called Warehouse 2.
- Confirmed as of the season premiere.
- Jossed, although Steve ends up acting outside of Ware House 13 to find out Sykes' plan to destroy the Warehouse.
- Confirmed, albeit as a one-shot thing to convince Myka to go back to the Warehouse.
- And then later permanently Confirmed again. (But then not.)
- I wholeheartedly support this, and was actually thinking the same thing.
- Which I suppose makes the FBI lady and the guy who used to be a cop "in another life" the counterparts to Pete and Myka (and Steve too, I suppose)
- Jossed, more or less Walter was simply hiring people he found useful, and had no issue getting rid of them before they even face their counterpart, including having the hacker killed by a trap in Warehouse 7 when he's done decrypting a file for Walter
- Claudia too, with an Alpha Ability similar to Skylar's.
- Lindsay Wagner's character is going to appear on Alphas.
- So, tentatively confirmed?
- Pete inherited his ability from his mother so it is genetic. The abilities the Warehouse people have all seem to be more stable versions of those seen in Alphas. It would make sense for the Regents to know about Alphas earlier than anyone else and over the years recruit those with useful but mostly passive abilities.
- Their powers are much weaker and less defined than the Alphas. Could it be that they are proto-Alphas or Betas not quite as strong as Alphas because they came before the Alphas in the evolution of man.
- More accurately, it's not the Game Boy but one of the game's in his collection.
- Walt Disney's paintbrush can paint things to cartooney life. It turns out Van Gogh's "Stormy Night" painting is an artifact, so maybe some of his other works are, too.
- Except it's not up to the governments of any nation where the Warehouse goes, remember? The Regents make that decision, and they don't report to anyone.
- Which is why it still exists. They were pissed that the Regents took off for America, so they restarted their copy and are trying to get into Warehouse 13 so they can get full control again. Unlike Warehouse 2, though, they can't actually get the living spirit or whatever it is back online.
Magic clearly hasn't overrun the world in Normal Again as it had in the Wishverse and the "What if Buffy died" verse, so the bureaucratic confusion amongst various government agencies ensures that the Secret Service and DCIS are unaware of the Watchers and the Slayer, and the British are still ticked about Warehouse 12 being moved so the Slayer and most Watchers don't know of the existence of the Warehouse. Most of the creators of artifacts put their own brand of energy into the artifacts by the focus and near-ritualistic repetition of what they did (see: witchcraft and its demon-worshipper equivalents), strengthened (or even changed outright) by their public image. Alphas are probably unrelated to magic, and more closely tie into the Mad Science of Eureka and Warren Mears.
As for the thing in Sector 5? It is (among other things) the heaven-dimension equivalent of a Hellmouth. Beauty, comfort, energy, and a Mad Science field come from it the same way dark feelings, demons, and an increased magical field come from the Hellmouths.
- Doubtful that characters will show up from Eureka. Possibly Fargo and Holly, but that's it.
- Came here to write this exact message. Seen the same thing on Stargate with Jack.
- As for how this plays out, it's possible he gets killed to keep the Status Quo.
- He became a mole but then was found out and killed.
- And then, he got brought back by Claudia and the metronome.
- Jossed (for now) With the Warehouse blown up, it is unknown if the bronzing technology is replicable, as (as far as we know) a warehouse has never been obliterated like that, but normally is simply closed down and locked down. It may well be that the bronzing machine was a artifact and that it will no longer be possible to bronze or unbronze people (presuming that bronzed people could survive a nuclear explosion.
- This is supported by Artie saying that it would be a "catastrophe" if anyone ever learned how to unbronze people, suggesting that in the thousands of years that the warehouse has existed, no one ever has.
- Jossed, Steve was working for the Warehouse and got killed. He got brought back by Claudia and now he's alive again. The Warehouse got brought back too much to Artie's distress.
- Problem with that: Star Trek takes place in the late 2,000's-early 3,000's. Warehouse 13 takes place in the present.
- Warehouse 13 is actually a holodeck adventure scenario a la Captain Photon.
- Meanwhile, a glitch in the system has caused Janeway and Seven to believe they really the mother and the ex. This explains why there are characters who resemble the Collector and Doctor Sung.
- Warehouse 13 is actually a holodeck adventure scenario a la Captain Photon.
- Agreed. Furthermore the behaviour of the Regents clinches it. Doing everything possible to screw over a former member's life but leaving them free is not the sort of action one would expect from an organisation that has lasted for two thousand years by relying on secrecy. If he was considered dangerous enough he would have been Bronzed. If they were going to let him go free they wouldn't be going out of their way to antagonise him. Especially while being targeted by a hostile group who have already made several successful attacks on the upper levels. They're clearly helping him build a cover story for insertion as an undercover agent.
- Disagree. Drawing his gun on Mrs. Fredricks was for Sally Stukowski's benefit, and was part of the plan from the beginning. As for his behavior toward Claudia, he was a jerk on the phone because he needed to keep up the pretense, but he let himself smile at the text message because she wouldn't see his reaction.
- Agreed. Specifically, the watch will allow Artie to go back in time just a minute or two, at which point he can tell H.G. Wells to put the forcefield around the bomb instead of them!
- Seems unlikely, MacPherson's words regarding it are "I hope you never have a reason to use it", implying something much more sinister then minor time travel.
- Jossed: At least, a lead towards the Reset Button.
- Well, confirmed insomuch that the reset could not have been achieved without it... especially seeing as they only had 24 hours.
- If so, then whose body is Jinks inhabiting? H.G.'s body was used for the creation of Emily Lake, while her soul was in the sphere. So where would they put Jinks's soul?
- Jossed. Revived with the Metronome.
- Outside of his synchronization with Claudia, this doesn't really seem to be the case.
- Jossed. Although Mrs. Frederic now has some gray hairs. So at least someone came back wrong.
- Even if it's not the metronome, any sort of death prevention strategy or Virtual Ghost could result in major issues once belief in reincarnation is involved.
- As of "An Evil Within", his issues don't really seem to be the religious kind, despite Claudia thinking that it is...
- Interestingly, I would consider H.G. Wells to be a much less powerful Spark than Claudia or Tesla; While she managed to build a Mental Time Travel machine and completely reconfigure the output of a destructive artifact using only 19th-century materials, all of her inventions have some form of Artifact-based Magitek (see again, Rheticus' Compass). It's plausible that she's the sort of Spark that has enough Sparkiness to make the logical leaps and be a Gadgeteer Genius, but not enough to completely subvert the known laws of science without Artifact help. Claudia (at least early in the series) and Tesla, on the other hand, routinely create and rework non-Artifact Warehouse tech to wholly surpass current scientific progress.
- If The Spark of Genius is caused by an Artifact, it is by far most likely to be some sort of Artifact that promotes the formation of Sparks, releasing their potential, rather than something that directly powers them. If I'm wrong about how the hypothetical Artifact works, it will probably be Played for Drama and come as a shock to Claudia's sense of self-identity. If I'm right, it will probably not result in a De-Power for anyone who has already built up Sparkiness or had a Breakthrough.
- Interestingly, I'd be of the opinion that Claudia would be a much less powerful Spark than HG or even Tesla. Claudia has merely re-purposed existing technology to reproduce existing technology. To date, everything she has done has simply been a Warehouse/artefact spin on an existing idea. HG, on the other hand, conceptualised and then actualised into technology ideas that the scientific community of her era hadn't even begun to theorize on. HG was so far ahead of the technological curve that she needed to wait a century for the rest of the world to catch up before she could implement some of her ideas. And even after a century the scientific world still hasn't caught up to her. Remember, despite the "artefact of the week" hunts, the Warehouse isn't actually a warehouse for "magic". Per Artie, if a radio fell into the hands of Jefferson, that radio would go into the Warehouse until the "modern" world was able to explain its workings. HG's inventions are so advanced that a century later the world still can't explain how they work. She's not just inventing technology, she's inventing the science behind her technology. Indeed, by measure of genius inventions, perhaps Claudia isn't a Spark at all. Perhaps she's simply brilliant, while HG is an actual genius.
- Maybe one of Emily Lake's students would be a Chekhov's Gunman?
- Artie's recurring dream seems to indicate this, but outside of his frantic paranoia, there aren't many other signs pointing to this. It also seems a bit less likely considering that she got Steve back.
- Jossed, she only stabbed Artie because he'd gone evil because of the astrolabe.
- Heck, no one even calls it "13.1" for that matter, aside from Fargo.
- Well that's pretty much a given.
- Jossed. The warehouse still exists in the same location even after 50 years.
- It's properly more a case of the Regent's have people from all over the world since the Warehouse does not answer to any one nation.
- Jossed, sort of. I guess having guilt-tripped a Regent really made it a whole lot easier for Claudia. If only H.G. knew that back in the 1800's...
- Confirmed. Ish
- The basic conceit is that the dog and Artie are the same person as far as the Astrolabe is concerned. So Artie telling Trailer isn't considered telling someone. Rather, it'd be like talking to yourself. So Trailer wouldn't be put into 'grave danger'.
- Brother Adrian already contradicted himself and Artie, in his world of paranoid delusion, hasn't puzzled that out yet. The original timeline Adrian warned Artie not to tell anyone lest a great evil be unleashed. The new Adrian warns Artie that to escape the great evil, he must undo what he did. But Artie hasn't told anyone what he did, so why is the great evil already after him?
- The answer is "because new Adrian is a figment of Artie's imagination"
- Brother Adrian already contradicted himself and Artie, in his world of paranoid delusion, hasn't puzzled that out yet. The original timeline Adrian warned Artie not to tell anyone lest a great evil be unleashed. The new Adrian warns Artie that to escape the great evil, he must undo what he did. But Artie hasn't told anyone what he did, so why is the great evil already after him?
- Looking forward to Eureka-esque drastic alternate timeline with good guys as bad guys and versa and strange new artifacts and technology.
- Five bucks says the show will play up this possibility and then turn it around at the end with Artie's interpretation of his visions being accurate after all.
- With Brother Adrian establishing himself as the Big Bad of season 4, Artie's suspicions of Claudia and the threat of the "evil that will live with [him] the rest of [his] days" seems a bit less connected... but maybe that's just me.
- The evil will be Artie himself. A highly dangerous opponent to the warehouse agents.
- Confirmed in "We All Fall Down". Claudia does stab Artie with it, but he survives, and the evil in him is gone.
- Well, we don't really know if the evil in him is gone. It is very likely, but the episode ended before we could see.
- Doubtful that evil Artie is gone. Very likely, evil Artie will become a separate entity
- Well, we don't really know if the evil in him is gone. It is very likely, but the episode ended before we could see.
- Possible though probably unintentional. The Brotherhood didn't know the world was without hope (and they certainly wouldn't know after the astrolabe was used). From that perspective, the idea that someone has the unfettered ability to travel back in time (physically even) with knowledge and skills intact is a lot of power. The evil may simply be a warming that such power is incredibly tempting to use - and becoming a self-fulfilling prophecy for both Brotherhood and Artie (Brotherhood crossing lines to prevent the astrolabe from use, Artie for crossing lines trying to protect it).
- Jossed. The evil created by the astrolabe is within its user, and will eventually overtake him completely. Meanwhile, the Brotherhood appear to be a lot less hands-on with trying to stop said evil...
- There doesn't seem to be any downside for it though.
- Arguably, his seeming inability to tell a lie himself - or at least, tell one convincingly - could be the downside.
- So he bought a spur in Univille? (Univille doesn't even seem to be featured so much in season 4, but I digress.) And where would he get the black diamonds from? It's also starting to look strange that Artie seems to be the only one monitoring Warehouse security, despite Claudia being responsible for most of its upgrades...
- The spur doesn't have to be real either. No one else saw it, and it's gone now. The black diamonds are definitely real though. He could could have acquired them somewhere or other, but they are one of the main points against this WMG.
- Confirmed in "The Ones You Love".
- Jossed in "Fractures". Steve prevents this (actually, a similar-looking scenario) from happening by standing in front of Artie, resulting in Claudia stabbing Steve and hurting herself in the process. Afterwards, Alice is returned to the shard, which is then neutralized immediately.
- I guess it could explain Claudia's anguished scream in the background.
- Jossed, Artie's possessed by the "evil within" from the use of the Astrolabe. Although the part about her expression and the reason for it is metaphorically true.
- Jossed. As revealed in "Fractures", Alice Liddell needs a human body to inhabit, not another object like the remaining shard of Lewis Carroll's mirror. And it's been established since "An Evil Within" that the dagger is another artifact entirely.
- Confirmed. Except for that last part, which is already sorted by then.
- Along the same lines, "fix the fish" will finally be explained, and the "fish" will play an important role.
- As it turns out, the "F.I.S.H." is a UFO-like invention from the 50s that helps keep Warehouse 13 hidden. The hats and masks are needed for unstated reasons whenever it cloaks or decloaks itself. The rifle is like a remote control.
- Now suggested in-universe by Mrs. Frederic.
- Half right it turns out. The Brother Adrian that's causing trouble was a hallucination all along. The real Brother Adrian was trapped in an artifact with the rest of the Oot BD.
- Jossed. The thimble is not involved when Claudia does stab Artie.
- Or... more than one person took hold of the metronome to bring Marcus back to life.
- Semi-confirmed.
- We know he debronzed HG, likely with the expectation that she would eventually destroy the world.
- He was involved in taking Collodi's bracelet away from Walter Sykes in the first place, and had a good decade or so before the Warehouse knew he wasn't in fact dead of prison fire. Alongside giving Rheticus' compass to Joshua, it wouldn't have taken much for MacPherson to track Sykes down and give him a direction for his anger.
- He left the watch that led to the astrolabe for Artie to find, which means he must have had some idea of what the astrolabe would do. And either HG causing a new Ice Age or Sykes blowing the Warehouse to kingdom come would create a situation in which Artie would feel backed into an astrolabe-using corner.
- Okay, that's blatantly not going to happen, but it would be funny if it turned out that modern medicine was capable of dealing with the orchid disease instantly.
- Jossed. St. Germain's ring (and the Philosophor's Stone) did it.
- The only thing I'd say against this is Pete's reaction to being kissed by a man (and a handsome one at that) while in Mkya's body in "Merge with Caution" was not exactly eager. In fact, his response was "Dude, what the hell?" and the word "ewww" which didn't seem like someone who either was used to or wanted to be kissed by men. More likely, he's just comfortable enough with his sexuality that he can appreciate attention from other men but have no interest in them sexually.
- Confirmed, except that the details were Jossed. The end of season five was a flash-forward, which may have been twenty years, to a team of Suspiciously Similar Subtitute agents. But they are working in the same old Warehouse 13 in the same place as it has always been. There is a bickering male and female agent pairing, being instructed by an older man who tries to get them to focus on the case. Then Claudia silently appears behind them in a sexy, shiny black outfit. She even reassures them that, no matter how often it seems like Warehouse 13 might move or be replaced, it won't be, saying "If I had a nickel for every time..." before trailing off after realising how much her team really do remind her of her original team-mates.
- Couldn't be more Jossed, thankfully!
- Confirmed!
- Claudia may be pulling double duty for both Mrs. Fredric and Artie
- Confirmed, although the only current-day character we see is Claudia, who now fulfills Mrs. Frederic's role, as well as being able to teleport like her and speaking in a similar fashion.
- Myka must have been affected too
- The Warehouse was preparing to move because the Votan invasion in 2013 would soon redraw borders everywhere. And it's still in South Dakota because that's now part of the Earth Republic.
- We don't get to see the memory she shows Steve, but Steve clearly recognizes her husband. He's got the name and might have been around in the time period Mrs. Frederick became caretaker (the 1890s—the real Douglass died in 1895)
- The agents at the end of the finale are clearly speaking with either Canadian or American accents, and since the Warehouse is supposed to have moved to another country...
- Alternatively it was going to be moved to Canada but something happened and the and a sizable chunk of northern America was annexed by Canada so the plan to move the Warehouse was cancelled
- The Warehouse didn't move. Keeper-Claudia says something about all the times the Warehouse had "almost moved" in the past. And then we're shown an external shot of the same warehouse in the same place.

- Collectors of the arcane and priceless
- Same look (duh, the same actor)
- Presumably Artie got turned evil by an artefact at some point that also granted him youth and immortality.
It wouldn't be practical to only have a handful of agents and, if you learnt about an artefact in another country, have to book one or more of them on a ship that might not return for years. It would have made sense to have Warehouse agents located throughout the globe near major population centres, only returning to the Warehouse to deliver artefacts. There also must have been a time before the football (or its predecessor, assuming there was one) when it would have been necessary to have people spread throughout the globe gathering information.
Back then, the number of agents to regents was probably more like the number of workers to management that you'd expect. Only more recently in history, as speed of travel has improved, has the number of agents been cut down.
