The team meets a man with extraordinary prophetic abilities, who gives them a dark prediction about Atlantis's future. The Wraith seek a new alliance with Atlantis in their war with the Replicators.

The city of Atlantis is visited by a man with extraordinary prophetic abilities, and who apparently has the ability to share these shocking visions with others. The gentle man is named Davos, and he is accompanied by a woman named Linara.

But Davos is quite ill. He believes that he is dying, but before he passes on he will share what he knows with those who now live in Atlantis, the city of the Ancestors. There are Wraith hive ships coming.

When Teyla goes to speak with Davos, he already knows that she came to his planet seeking to learn the fate of her people, the Athosians. It is not clear where they have gone or what has happened to them, but Davos can assure Teyla that they are alive -- though they are "shrouded in darkness."

And Davos knows more than this. He also knows that Teyla is pregnant. She is stunned that he knows, and confesses that she has not told anyone on Atlantis yet.

PRODUCTION
  • "No major construction for 'The Seer,' but we will marry some of the exterior scenes from this episode to the 'This Mortal Coil' shoot. James and Tom also pitch out how they'd like to pull off the 'horrific reveal' at script's end. I love it!"
    (Executive producer Joseph Mallozzi, in a message at his blog)

  • The Wraith from "Common Ground" will return in "The Seer," and may become a recurring character.
    (Executive producer Joseph Mallozzi, in a message at his blog)

  • Actress Michelle Morgan was originally cast as Linara, the daughter of the Seer. She had to back out because of scheduling conflicts with a movie she was shooting, and was quickly recast as Fran in "Be All My Sins Remember'd."
