I don’t either. There’s something….off about him.
His casting call is a big reason I find him suspicious:
“A good and just ruler who, beneath the surface, is a master manipulator who can carry a grudge to the grave, and maybe beyond. He harbors an eternal burning love for Guinevere that can lean toward being a bit… controlling.”
CV: In the first episode, we saw you have a cameo set in Emma’s past. Is it meant to be a surprise to viewers who you were?
ELLIOT: I think it’s something they added in. I don’t think it was always there originally. It’s something I’m really glad that they added.
This explains why Adam and Eddy initially said months ago that Merlin wouldn’t be in the premiere. Seems like he really wasn’t at the time, and this movie theater scene with him and Young Emma was a latter addition.
Is Adam directing another episode? Or is he just visiting?
My theories on why Merlin is in that tree:
1) For whatever reason, Arthur trapped him there himself. I don’t know about the rest of you, but I don’t quite trust Arthur. I think he has his own hidden agenda. As for what his hidden agenda is, I’m sure it’ll have to do with finding the dagger and reuniting it with Excalibur.
2) Merlin put himself in the tree as some sort of ruse. Maybe to test Emma and the gang in some shape or form.
