I don't understand the idea that Weyoun Whatever-Number-They-Were-Up-To-By-Now was the last Weyoun. Surely the Dominion still has its cloning facilities in the Gamma Quadrant. Maybe after the wormhole was closed, the Gamma Quadrant Dominion created a Weyoun 6b?

I don't buy it either, but I believe this following quote from TGL sums it up...

Maybe the Gamma Quadrant did create it's own Weyoun's. But in the Alpha Quadrant the Vorta cloning facility on Rondak III was destroyed. No more Vorta cloning facility, no more Weyoun's.

But there is obviously a Vorta cloning facility in the Gamma Quadrant, unless they brought it with them and didn't even back up Weyoun's genetic files. That I hardly believe.

*grins* *Finds this to be wonderful fodder for her fanfiction*
MY take on it is this--perhaps the female founder no longer trusted weyoun to be such a proficient leader. he had, as of late, made many MANY errors and problems. she had been intending to clone him again as well--that much was stated a few episodes ago.

Posted by Saltah'na (Member # 33) on :
There should be many more cloning facilities in the Alpha Quadrant. Perhaps each Vorta is assigned to only one Facility. And in the case of Weyoun, it is Rondak III. This means that Rondak III was especially chosen since it houses the Weyoun clones inside, perhaps chosen by the great Damar himself.

Oh, I'm sure Weyoun's genetic pattern is on file back in the Gamma Quadrant. But even if they brought his body back, he wouldn't be the same Weyoun. Memories transfer, but I doubt they do so across the galaxy. Without access to those memories, any future clone would be more like Weyoun 4, or perhaps even 3, since 4 was vaporized. Similar, but not the same.

The Weyoun killed in WYLB is number nine. And I believe that there can be future Weyouns.

The Dominion might have a policy to make no new clones after nine have already died.

I think you've taken Monty's reference in the wrong direction. No one would ever want to go to a place like the one he's thinking of.

Well perhaps they meant this was the last Weyoun that wasn't going to be crazy in this particular Alpha quadrant cloning facility. If you keep making copies of a copy, eventually, you'll end up with a copy with not all the pieces. Although I guess you could argue that Weyoun was already crazy.

*nods at Vanguard* That's the exact point I bring out in a piece of fanfiction I'm writing...or at least trying to *L* Just like in some TNG eppy at one point, where they had all those genetically engineered people living in that biodome, and they wanted Wesley and some of the other Enterprise children to replenish their clones. The DNA that they had to work with had degenerated so much that it was basically unstable. Surely that would follow for the Weyoun, Keevan, etc, clones as well.

Hmm...actually...on seeing the show again, this time with the Closed Captioning on, the Founder says : I really wish you hadn't have done that. That was Weyoun's last clone.
maybe they had a finite number of clones made, ready to be activated or something when the cloning chamber was destroyed or whatever happened to it. *SIGHS* How am I going to make this work with my story...? Doh... *going to have to brainstorm on this a bit*

Perhaps they make a practice of making only so many copies of a single individual, then stop, to avoid the degradation that happens to successive copies?
And (almost non-sequitor) perhaps the original (master copy) Weyoun (and other vortæ, for that matter) is kept in stasis somewhere in the Gamma quadrant, in case they want to make more high-quality copies?
Just conjecture...?
