Orphan Black Episode 9 Recap: Unconscious Selection


Only one episode to go till the season finale and I'm already depressed. Meanwhile I assume Tatiana Maslany will be thankful for a MUCH needed rest after playing 5 characters per episode. 

Lots of excitement this week:

  • Kira has recovered from her car accident. She tells Sarah it was not Helena's fault. And something is up with Kira. I don't what but its something-- maybe she's a clone, or maybe she was created by combining all the clones DNA (didnt we just find out that all their DNA is not 100% identical).
  • Art is still running around digging up clues. He sees the subway footage and now knows that Beth is dead and that whomever he has speaking to all this time is not her.
  • Alison's neighbors and family schedule an intervention which doesn't go well. Alison tells everyone a number of secrets about Aynesley. Things are going to end badly for those two. I thought Aynesley was her monitor in the beginning but now I think it's a ploy to draw us away from the real monitor (but I'm not sure who that is). And Felix is his normal funny self. More air time for Felix and Alison please. 
  • Cosmina finds out Delphine has been playing her and gave Dr Leekie the names of all the clones. Delphine says she loves her but Cosmina isn't buying it. How sad. I hope they end up getting back together. And Delphine did not tell Leekie about Kira so lets hope it stays that way. 
  • Dr Leekie, Paul and Sarah team up to find Helena before she kills everyone. Dr Leekie says he will "reprogram" her. You should NOT trust what Dr Leekie says about anything. Helena is locked up in a cage on the boat because she didn't kill Sarah like she was supposed to. She calls Sarah who rescues her. Sarah tries to shoot Helena but can't do it. They hug and Helena says "I love you". That was very touching. Meanwhile Crazy Clone Keeper Tomas shows up. Helena almost kills him but they lock him up instead. Sarah leaves with Helena is her car trunk (just in case she goes crazy again).
  • A woman named Amelia shows up at Mrs S's. She says she gave birth to Sarah due to invitro fertilization and... wait for it... that Helena is her twin. Say what? This woman is from South Africa so it appears they scattered the clones all over the world. She hid the twins to protect them. One went to an orphanage (Sarah) and one went to a convent (Helena). Are Sarah and Helena the original two twins? I'm very confused. 
  • We also see Dr Leekie speaking to who appears to be clone number 10 (although we just see her from the back). 
  Grade: 4 1/2 Monsters (out of 5). A really good episode. I am so confused though.
