geebsTV commentary:
Orphan Black- Well, that was easy. So Sarah gets her family (sans Cal, who's out of the country, presumably across the narrow sea) ready to leave, though Siobahn and Kendall are skeptical. But then Kyra can sense them coming from far out, so they get into gear and make with great haste, Siobahn burning the house down so they can't get any of Kendall's DNA. Conveniently, they cut to them arriving back in town, which I thought it was going to be a whole thing them trying to escape. I mean, while being in the middle of nowhere makes it hard to find, if they are found, to me I would think it makes them easy to track, because there's nothing but snow for miles. And they're dragging a little kid and an old lady with them!
But whatever, Sarah meets with Art and they look into this whole Beth-MK thing, and among the boxes of crap in Beth and Paul's apartment, they find a video of some neolution guy having the creepy larva thing in his cheek, and Art tells Sarah about the case of the dead guy with the missing cheek that he suspects MK put Beth on to.
They also find the hidden camera Beth placed in the apartment to spy on Paul. They see the time she almost put a bullet in his head, and lament how effed up Beth had gotten over all this. They see the preggers Neolution lady, so Sarah goes to investigate the club. But since she can't just walk in the front door looking like she does, she needs Felix to go in and sneaker her in the side.
Felix has apparently been kinda aloof from everybody, though he's had some contact with Ali, and they talk about some mysterious project he has going. Still, he tells Sarah he's been kinda upset about all this- he loves them all, but he can't help but feel like an outsider. I mean, he's even jealous that Mrs. S, who's always been like a mom to them even though they weren't related by blood, turns out to actually be related to Sarah.
Anyways, at the club, a contact mistakes Sarah for MK and talks to her. He eventually realizes she's not MK, and they tussle, wherein she ends up stealing his phone and sees MK sent him a text to meet at some laundromat. And so, she finally gets to have a convo with her newly discovered sister via phone and a security camera. MK tries to dissuade Sarah from continuing Beth's work, since it destroyed her. Sarah eventually figures out MK is actually just outside in a car and tries to talk to her face to face, but MK takes off.
She goes back in the laundry only to be attacked by the creepy paramedics who think she's MK at first, but then the white dude one put his hand in her mouth and feel around in her cheek. The guy somehow figures out she's Sarah from that, and they leave her be. Needless to say, she's freaked out, and tries to check herself when she gets home, scaring Kyra trying to check her, as they were both in custody for a while and she thinks Neolution may have implanted those things in them. She has Mrs. S help her look, and when Sarah shines a flashlight on the inside of her cheek, Siobahn is shocked to see the creepy larva thing, illuminated by the light! Yikes!
Other stuff, heh, Donnie takes Helena to the hospital so they can have a check up under Alison's identity. They find out Helena's having twins. Also, Ali's not too happy living with Helena, and maybe just a little bit jealous that Helena is having children since she can't.
Since everyone's back in town, Scott and Cosima take this opportunity to draw some more blood samples from Kendall. Scott discovers anomalies in Kendall's blood, and she admits she was diagnosed with leukemia before she got involved with this mess. She tells Scott not to tell anyone, because she doesn't want their pity. Which, what the eff!? I get she doesn't want people to be all sad and wants a true reconciliation with her daughter, not Siobahn only reconciling because Kendall's dying. But they're trying to use her blood for a cure to save Cosima and the others. I think her having leukemia is something they need to freaking know!!
Also, Art sees the night Beth killed herself. Or rather, the events in her apartment leading up to it. She puts on a blonde wig, and packs a gun and goes somewhere. Then, a while later, she returns all freaked out, and tells MK to look after their sisters before leaving again, presumably to kill herself on the train platform. I'm wondering, did she get implanted with the neo larvae? Find out she was implanted? Is that why she killed herself?
