edit- [6th Century Camelot: Guinevere is confronted and threatened by Morgana and then saved by Merlin]
- Morgana: You cannot escape me, Guinevere.
- Guinevere: How dare you threaten the Queen.
- Morgana: Queen? For how long? Once your precious Arthur learns what you've done, you will help me find the crystal.
- Guinevere: Never!
- Merlin: Enough of your treachery, Morgana!
- Guinevere: Merlin, I have failed you.
- Morgana: Your time is over, old man. I am not done with you, girl. I will have the crystal, if it takes a thousand years.
- [Gwen and Tasha meet Merlin]
- Gwen: Look, I don't believe in magic.
- Merlin: Well then, at last, I have your attention.
- Tasha: Who are you?
- Merlin: I am Merlin, of course. And you are?
- Tasha: Uh, Tasha.
- Merlin: She is your servant?
- Gwen: What?
- Merlin: This Tasha, she is your servant?
- Gwen: No she's... no.
- Merlin: Guinevere, must we go through this with every lifetime?
- Gwen: My name's Gwen.
- Merlin: At least it's close this time.
- Gwen: What?
- Merlin: Your name. You've had quite a few since you were Guinevere. Mari, Svetlana, Fujiko, of course they were just your human reincarnations.
- Tasha: Are you saying she's...?
- Merlin: Yes, that explains it.
- Tasha: Explains what?
- Merlin: Your dim-wittedness of course! Your soul is in it's mere infancy. Your's on the other hand is one of the Ancients. You were first born in a time of great magic. Magic is your birthright and your destiny.
- Tasha: Are you dead?
- Merlin: Do I look dead?
- Tasha: I was just asking!

- Gwen: You mean like... a demon?
- Karen: It's tormenting people, feeding off their terror.
- Gwen: "Evil is a river running through time".
- Karen: Where did you hear that?
- Gwen: From you. Just when you were sick. And from Merlin.
- Karen: You've seen him? I am asking you for the last time, if you love me then leave.
- Gwen: I'll go if you'll go.
- Karen: I can't. Not when something that is supposed to be in me is out there.
- [Gwen and Merlin talking]
- Gwen: I don't understand. Who would do this to my mother?
- Merlin: Guinevere, through all your lifetimes one thing has remained constant, you have a trusting heart. It is your greatest strength and your greatest weakness.

- Merlin: Everyone's fate is sealed. One way or another.
Episode 1.3: That Old Black Magic

- [Gwen, Tasha and Morgana talking]
- Morgana: Now then, Merlin has something I need. You will help me find it.
- Gwen: The crystal.
- Morgana: Of course.
- Gwen: Look, he's not gonna give it to me, so you might as well just let Tasha go.
- Morgana: Brave words. But underneath, you're still the same fickle mindless girl you always were.
- Morgana: Hot blood and no sense. That was Guinevere's downfall, and because of her... Arthur's downfall too.
- Gwen: What are you talking about?
- Morgana: Care to fill her in?
- Tasha: Guinevere. She cheated on King Arthur with Lancelot. After that, everything went to pieces. Camelot tainted big time.
- Morgana: She made it so easy. I barely had to do more than put Lancelot in her path.
- Tasha: You put a spell on them?
- Morgana: To destroy Merlin, I had first to destroy Arthur.
- Gwen: But, you didn't destroy Merlin.
- Morgana: You will bend to my will, just as she did. I will have Merlin's Stone.
- Gwen: He won't give it to me.
- Morgana: He has hidden it. Only you know where to find it.
- Gwen: Look, you've got the wrong girl. I don't know anything about it.
- Morgana: Then I suggest you try to remember, to save your friend here, and your precious mother.
- Gwen: You sent the demon!

- Gadowain: Likewise I'm sure, Goldilocks.
- [Gwen and Merlin talk before she returns to her time]
- Gwen: When I go back, will I remember what happened?
- Merlin: Yes. The older the soul, the greater the ability to comprehend the multiplicity of reality. What are you doing?
- Gwen: Just checking out the multiplicity of reality. Morgana. Is she dead?
- Merlin: She is still alive here in my time, and still a threat. But mortal once again, thanks to you. Of course, had you not disobeyed me and come after the crystal, the future wouldn't have been altered in the first place.
- Gwen: Oh excuse me, I came back to your time to save you from Morgana.
- Merlin: Thank you very kindly. I was quite capable of managing Morgana myself.
- Gwen: You were a block of ice.
- Merlin: A block...(laughs) of... ice?
- Gwen: (laughs)
- Merlin: Well, it's time for you to go back, where you are most needed.
- Gwen: Merlin, you have the crystal. Why not just use it and become immortal and fight evil yourself?
- Merlin: Gwen, you had the crystal. Why didn't you use it for yourself?
- Gwen: Because, it would have been wrong.
- Merlin: Verily. The cycle of death and rebirth is Nature's way. And only the very foolish or very arrogant would tamper with it, at the world's peril.
- Gwen: Will I still see you?
- Merlin: I will always be here for you. For as long as my time here on Earth allows.
- [Gwen has just found out that O'Leary is her father]
- Gwen: Wait. So, what do I call you? Dad?
- O'Leary: Sticks in the throat, doesn't it? Maybe one day you'll be proud to call me that. As proud as I am of you. Look after yourself, Gwen.
