geebsTV commentary:
Orphan Black- I'm cautiously optimistic! I mean, I keep saying Delphine is totally alive, because like last week, even though Evie taunted Cos with Delphine's death, it was mysterious that they had Krystal telling Art and Felix how "she saw everything". Obviously, there had to be more to the story.
Although the reveal did end up being slightly clunky. Cosima feels she has nothing to live for now, so she's getting ready to install the slug thingie, because that may help with their genetic research now that they're back to square one. She locks herself in the basement, and Scott tells Felix, who's all, "I'm such a dunce, I forgot Krystal said Delphine got shot, but she saw someone pick her up!" Like what the shit, that's a pretty damn important thing to forget! Like he manages to tell Cosima in time to stop her from implanting herself, but that's insane!
I mean, everyone was reeling with everything that happened (like even Alison, who's been busy with her own shit, breaks down when writing a condolence card to Mrs S, praying to God for hope, because they're pretty much effed), and Delphine was their friend. Its not like after Cos called, Sarah would be all, "Kendall died! Oh yeah, and some Delphine chick?" Like as soon as Art and Fee heard, I would think they would immediately correct her!
But whatever, I guess they wanted some drama. And some parallels. Because while Cos was doing that, Sarah was basically going nuts, hard partying, doing coke, getting into threesomes, before settling on trying to kill herself while being haunted by Beth's ghost. After all, she blames herself for what happened, and even more hurtful, so does Siobhan. And when its evident Sarah is gonna run and go on one of her self destructive tirades, Mrs S says she's keeping Kira.
Luckily, in between stewing and getting her sniper rifle ready to most likely kill Duko (Mrs S describes Kendall's killer, and Art realizes its Duko, which I'm pretty sure he knows she's like a trained killer, he has to know she's going to go after the guy at some point!) Kira tells Mrs S that "Mommy is going away like Beth did!" which is enough to snap Siobahn out of her funk and get Felix to find and stop Sarah. He does, with a little help from the Beth ghost, and Mrs. S makes her breakfast to make up.
Anyways, speaking of the creepy earmuff wearing mf-er (its hilarious how someone so plain can seem so freaking unsettling and scary) Art confronts him, kicking his ass in a dark room in the police station. But Duko's not really intimidated, taunting Art with how fucked clone club is. Then he goes and arrests Donnie for drug dealing in front of his daughter and her friends having a slumber party. Effin' creepy bastard! But he did that on purpose, as out of earshot of the other cops, he hands Alison his card "in case she needs to talk" and casually mentions how he was the one who killed Kendall.
Other stuff, Susan lets Rachel out of her locked room, saying it doesn't matter anymore because the Original is gone and they're fucked. Heh, Evie has a conference call with Susan and Rachel, solidifying the coup. Evie's ending everything, the monitoring program, all that jazz, claiming the Leda assets. She's not going to go for another "Helsinki incident", but says Sarah and clone club will need to be taken care of (heh, Rachel offers to help, but Evie despises her kind). Which is confusing, because the first part of that statement makes it sound like she's not going to kill them, but the second part does.
Owel, in any case, apparently someone's messing with Rachel's eye, as they're making her see a swan. Also, MK secretly contacts Kira on her laptop.
