I didn't follow Scott and his explanation. Layman's terms anyone?
Alison has two monitors? Well I can't say I'm not surprised with the 2nd one.

Ugh...Delphine...

I HATE WHEN SHOWS DO THIS.

"We just learned vital, story-progression information. But let's NOT tell the person it pertains to the most...because reasons."

I think it was to imply that they have Kira's DNA, maybe?

I didn't get the feeling that it was Kira's DNA. I think the implication was that the clones have another blood relative somewhere out there that Dyad knows about.

I'm not gonna call you crazy because you have to expect the unexpected with this show, but how is that even possible? Was there like fertilized eggs being shared around? I hope after the show, producers or someone in the know can give an official explanation of possibilities.

And whatever it was, Delphine knows and it scared her. Scott is pretty darn smart
 
Mrs. S with the truth bomb. Just tea and biscuits Paul, why are you looking so frighten?

Edit: Dat Preview for the next episode

The stem cells don't come from other clones because they aren't genetically identical to Cosima's, but contain enough similarities to probably be from a relative.

I don't want to believe that all the clones are sick, even though that likely to be the case, because they're all CLONES.

I figure the fact that Sarah (and Helena) are able to conceive that maybe they don't have the cancer the other clones have died from. Did Delphine and Cosima discover that the cancer started in the uterus?

Yeah, it seems to be an autoimmune disorder. They found polyps in Jennifer's uterus. It seems to start there and spread into the lungs (or elsewhere).

They lost me a little at the end with all the science-y clone talk, but the rest of the episode was filled with great character beats. Helena was great fun this week.

Seeing Helena go back to Creep Farm and Sarah leaving her behind makes me sad. She hates them and they hate her or just see her as a tool for their own ends, Helena should be having adeventures with her sestras and not be in that terrible place. The Proletheans also are still very unclear as to their motivations. Tomas was their guy and he used Helena to murder all those other clones and now suddenly they discover they had the Fertile Clone they wanted among them all along ? Did Hendrik do some sort of power grab in the cult to change them from wanting to destroy the abominations to creating new ones ?

I hope we get to see a little about what their deal is beyond 'holy shit these people are crazy'.
 
OH MY GOD, WHY CAN'T HELENA JUST STAY WITH SARAH AND THE CLONE CLUB AND BE HAPPY FOREVER. I HATE THESE PROLETHIAN DOUCHEBAGS GOD DAMN IT.

Son of a bitch! Just when I was liking the Vik/Allison burgeoning friendship!

OH MY GOD MRS S WHAT THE FUCK.

I love how thick everything is here. I love how the different factions interacting a lot with each other, even without any maincharacter present.

Gotta say I really sympathize with Paul here he's really stuck between a rock and a hard place here with this constant Afghanistan thing being lorded over his head by pretty much everyone.
 
Sarah leaving Helena behind? What? Why would she do that? I mean I guess it's a risk bringing her along to see Duncan, but still...

Great episode otherwise. All Helena scenes were brilliant, and getting a clear villain has been a long time coming.

Well, I think she didn't have any idea what happened and if she could've risk to approach the police station. It could very well been a plot of Leeky or smb.

Wearing a Pussy Riot sweater ! And interstingly enough a Russian activist named Petr Pavlensky sew his own mouth shut in protest over their imprisonment very much like Grace. Hopefully we won't see anything like his later protest where he nailed his balls to the pavement of Red Square.

I don't know why, but this reminded me of that terrible Alanis Morissette video. I am bummed Helena is back with the creepy cult. Hopefully she gets her babies, slaughters everyone and then burns the place down. Also, I can't decide which character I hate more, Big Dick Paul or Detective Angela. At least Paul has a big dick. Not really sure Detective Angela has any redeeming qualities.
 
This show just keeps getting better and better. I really hope that Helena, who is easily becoming one of my favorite characters, is able to rejoin Sarah but I guess we'll just have to wait and see, won't we? Every Saturday, after each episode premieres, I find myself praying that the show be renewed.
