Btw, I remember that a while ago I asked if the first scene of 801 (with Merlin and a mysterious Author) would play out later. If I remember correctly, it didn't play out in S8's finale, so I guess it'll play a bigger role in S9? They'll be released on Wednesday ;)

About the Author scene, it doesn't really have much importance other than teasing the Author storyline that happened in Season Eight, mostly in the finale with the scene where Merlin talks to Henry, Lucy and King Henry about his plans for Authors. That was the "play out" :)
