Now for the important things
Orphan Black is back! Orphan Black is back!
I sent the whole day looking at other people reactions and reading interviews and behind the scenes specials. Do you know Tatiana was the scorpion - including the clicky noises? And that the safe word is "corncob"?
[Orphan Black - The Weight of This Combination SPOILERS]
I love that Helena's fantasy is all about family and food. All her sestra's (including brother sestra) and Kira and the baby and so much food (mostly Ukranian - she goes back to childhood comfort food in her dreams. And cupcakes). And I love that everyone is a kind of basic version of themselves but twisted and up to 11 - Sarah is all black leather and shades and looks like a hole in that bright garden, Alison is a kind of 50s housewife complete with cupcakes and Cosima is the folk one (in this case Ukrainian version) and all healed by science.
Rachel is alive but not well and Delphine is now in charge. She's the new Rachel (as Cosima says) and Marion gave her access to most (some) of Dyad's secrets and her promise to Cosima to keep all her sisters' safe became a difficult task. She always kept secrets but now she has very deadly ones. But she's still not good at keeping them - Sarah was never supposed to know about Helsinki. And that's only one bomb dropped on her. She also learns Mrs. S sold Helena to project Castor. All on the same day.
Delphine breaks up with Cosima :(. So Cosima tells about The Island of Doctor Moreau only to Scott. Secrets are power. Especially now that Castor clones are also looking for them. Because it looks like they're having their own sickness and they also cannot have kids. I wonder if that's why military wanted Helena (or Sarah). Probably trying to figure out how to make more or at least cure the ones they have.
Ari Millen looked creepy as Mark but Rudy and his creepy moustache brother are even creepier. It's like multiple Helena's only without any cute food fetish.
James Frain as Ferdinand was both creepy and hilarious. His secret life with Rachel - from kinky sex to planning to kill the other clones. Topside likes their clones to be unaware and Rachel likes to be special. But who would've thought there was so many clones in Helsinki. The whole Finland only has 5.5 million people - no wonder they eventually met each other.
As always Tatiana was amazing - from the group, dream scene to Sarah as Rachel (I kept thinking that she walks like Sarah and Ferdinand will notice) to Alison being so barely holding it as Sarah (miming was perfect) to the scorpion guiding Helena how to get out of boxes (out of first one already). They are all going to be sorry they messed with Clone Club. And as always the illusion is complete - you never question Tatiana slapping Tatiana as unnatural. Just Sarah trying to distract Ferdinand by hitting herself in the face.
Good that the Hendrixes were there to lighten the mood. Alison is back to her old self and Marci Coates should be wary even if Donnie and Alison doesn't go on another killing spree. Donnie was so Donnie at loosing his job but at least it'll give us Alison's mother and that should be fun to watch.
The only problem is that the time frame of the show and real life became more and more detached and now it's pretty obvious Kira got a year older in a day. Truly, a special child. Regenerates, brings dead back to life and grows up super-fast - that's a demigod like stuff.
I finally figured out why them saying Helena's name as Helana is so annoying - American's tend to do this to my name too - pronouncing 'e' as 'ay'.
I know episode 2 leaked out but I'm strong. I'm going to watch it on BBCA.
