Allison's monitor could also be the annoying neighbor woman's husband - the one she had sex with in the car. He always pops in at random moments and he seems attracted to Allison.

I suspect it's him because the way they're trying to point to Ainsley is too obvious.

Have you guys heard the real accent of the actor who plays Felix? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d7gEz-ZVm6Y
Damn. He almost sounds slightly Southern? Impressive.
 
I think it's pretty obvious that Sarah is the original.

They didn't "send" her to the orphanage though. With the mother's past and that smuggler they keep bringing up it's heavily hinted that Sarah was smuggled out of somewhere/stolen. In the last episode she even says the last time she saw him, he made her promise to take Sarah and run.

For me at least maybe I'm jumping another step. If Carlton knew to smuggle Sarah out, could it be as simple as, she's the original, don't let those guys do more harm to her? I'd like to think that in a series of clones, Sarah was the first to show different characteristics from those that came before her. Once the discover was made, her importance was elevated, and he got her out of the system.

I think the least realistic aspect of this show is that Sarah is supposed to be a punk chick, and yet... she has zero piercings or tattoos? Really? I have never ever met a punk girl without piercings and tats. I know it'd pretty much prevent her from impersonating other clones, but come oooon. xD

Honestly they should get together and come up with one generic look. Hair color/cut, clothing style. Hell maybe even just come up with a standard accent.

That's what I started thinking after they just decided it was her, but the show wasn't revealing it.
 
Great episode.

I love Alison, guys. She's so high strung it goes from being annoying to being kind of adorable. Maybe I'm crazy too. But Tatiana is killing this shit. You know in the first episode, I thought she was super-meh. Sarah bored me, seemed unsympathetic. But it's a wonder how far she's gone in such a short amount of time. Gotta be one of the best actresses on TV. Haven't been impressed like this in a while.

Oh, that ending :( The feels. From Helena receiving the hug to Kira getting hit by the car. Fuck.

Felix as awesome as usual. And now forces from all sides closing in on the clones.

Also, Alison intervention next week! With Felix! Wicked. The Felix/Alison pairing is the best pairing.

Holy crap, what. I didn't expect that.

Thank you, Orphan Black, for not taking Memorial Weekend off like practically every other show on TV.

Woo.

I'm kind of hoping they don't go with the Sarah-as-not-clone and just science-away an explanation that she either did exhibit different characteristics or they just plain experimented on her extra (which is why she had a child instead of being barren).

Wouldn't her being the non-clone original basically make her older than the rest?

HOLY SHIT

THANK YOU BASED CANADA FOR FINALLY DELIVERING GOOD TV.
It's really super-soft sci-fi but Being Erica is also a Canadian series and probably one of my favourite shows in the last couple of years.

Flashpoint is pretty good too even if is pretty much a CBS cop procedural. There was also The Border back a couple more years. I admit there isn't too much good Canadian TV, but I don't really look too hard for it.

Any news on this coming to Netflix soon?

I'm thinking of either getting it on Amazon Instant or Blu-ray to see it. Netflix has been good about getting BBC series quickly though.
