Dawn, (being the Key) is the power source...

Comments, Ideas, questions for anyone?

I'm pretty sure Dawn isn't the key anymore. Just a girl. She was the key, but that magic gate has been opened and closed, and Buffy fell through it and died, so it's closed for good. No more key-ness. That was the only gate she was good for.

You sure? Perhaps even though her Keyness might be a little faded, she's still got in her. It's not like it went Poof or someone cast a spells and it's gone.

I tend to think she's still the key. They really haven't said or mentioned anything that would make me beleive otherwise.

Yep, she is still the Key. Only now we don't think anyone is looking for her.

Yeah, but they implied that was the only available time for Glorificus's hellgate to be opened. And that was definitely the only gate she was good for- if keys were transitive, Glory would have found a different one. They've made a big deal out of how she was a real girl, in addition to being the key, but since there's nothing left for her to be the key /to/, I think she's just a girl now.
 

Could be, but is the gate Glory opened not still in exisitance? I figured she was still the key, but the portal was closed and locked again. I don't know if they addressed it, if so, I did not pay too much attention.
 

Okay admittedly I'm not certified in quantuam theory or anything remotely relating to such physics, BUT if dimenson CAN connect, and such powers can open portals (eg the Key), maybe the reason the key had to be opened at a certain time MIGHT be because of the harmonic/natural sympathic energies involved. Perhaps Dawn's "keyness" is related more to certain portals WHEN they are receptive to such energies. Perhaps now the Hellmouth WILL be receptive because it's opening at a certain time.

(btw agrees with Crothy that they couldn't just blam, take away her Keyness without some serious stuff being mentioned)

Perhaps the Key opens a portal, but it's only when the portal is at a certain energy peak. Much like tidal forces. The key itself doesn't open the portal, merely acts as a insert for a tumble lock. Meaning to open the RIGHT portal, you need the right things in place. Thus Dawn's keyness isn't lost, merely less accentuated.
 


It looks as though the FE appears to it's agents in the form of people who have died - including when it appears as Spike and Buffy.

So I’m wondering if Giles will return to the show… as a doppelganger.

And what better way to undermine the Scoobies than to appear as someone they trust above all others?

Anthony Stewart Head has said (in more than one interview) how he would like Giles to have more of a dark edge to him, maybe even go bad. Hmm. Maybe he finally got his wish.

Sorry, but I just can’t see Giles surviving a blow like that – unless he had some kind of protective barrier.
