Warehouse 13

How did I not know about this show until recently?!!? 

And how did I not watch it until today!!??

S04 E13 The Big Snag
Excellent!
The acting feels a tad cheesy, which gives it a bit of a charm. This particular episode had two characters
, Pete and Myka somehow trapped in an unwritten novel. A noir crime novel, which turned into a murder mystery.






The whole thing had a certain feel to it. Like Captain Picard, Data, and Beverly were trapped in a black and white crime novel on the
Holodeck. There but not. And don't forget the Holodeck malfunction that some how turns the safety off, so now the possibility of death is real. Loved that stuff. So today I found this episode and its was much like that old TNG stuff. Fun! (Of course, all the novel characters are surprised when the Dame is smarter then they expect!)




Second half of the show had two conspiring to get the third off his butt and back to work after a
colleague was killed (by him?) They succeed, but are unprepared for his lapse in good judgement that jeopardizes his own life a couple times.
The thing they were chasing down was an artifact that could make cars disappear through walls. Turns out to be gloves from a once famous stunt driver. The effects were kinda cool. Again a cheesy kinda vibe to the whole thing. But I love the Cheesy.

I plan on going back and starting from the beginning...I hate this dropping into the end of and ongoing show. I've missed four seasons...time to correct that while some of my other shows are finished for the summer.

Orphan Black: (Ep108) "Entangled Banks"

Well "Oly Stink!
First off I can hardly get over the ending of this episode!

Ok, now that's off my chest let's look at the plot development!

Paul is in a new position. In control. He's found out the reals of Olivier and since he is laid up, Paul's telling him what's what! The goal is to protect Sarah. Not very sure Sarah knows what he is actually up to. Not sure Paul realizes just how dangerously close he is to getting himself caught, or Sarah for that matter!
Sarah has gotten everyone in a mess now! And it only seems to tighten and choke everyone with every turn.


There is no more going back to being Beth. That con has run its
course. That is, until Art kept calling.  One last encounter with Art probably has Beth caught now. That we'll most likely see next week. Not very "cop" of her to forget about not leaving finger prints!




But Art's on to Fe too! Poor boy doesn't yet realize how entangled he's gotten himself! He has most likely completely forgotten about calling Art before Sarah and Paul returned from being held captive by Olivier. Now with the police on to him I think he's going to be up on possible murder charges. It does look a bit creepy having those paintings of her laying about the flat.

Cosima is in over her head and soon to be drown! Now that Leekie knows she has had contact with

several others there is sure to be some 'splainin' to do! Of course, that means miss Delphine will either have to 'fess up, or hide that she is the spy. I'm glad to see Delphine a little more fleshed out as far as character goes. The first impression I had of her was just a puppet of Dr. Leekie, now I'm  sure she is, but now there is a connection between Cosima and Delphine that I suspect she will not remain as only that.

I just love how Alison has completely fallen apart. It was obvious that she was too tightly wound in the

first place. Now that she is unraveling personally it will be fun to see how Tatiana Maslany keeps true to Alison's persona while still negotiation the change in her personal life and not making he too much like Sarah.

So, the secret is out to Mrs. C and I am personally glad for it. There was just too much secretiveness. Of course Mrs. C realizes that she has met Alison before! Funny bit that! I like the personal touch the writers have allowed between Sarah and Alison in this scene. Where Alison compliments Mrs. C for being such a good mother and Sarah for having it all together. But in truth they both are hot messes, and both are just as blessed. 

Helena is just SO creepy! And Tatiana plays it so well! 

Eating sugar, rolling around on the floor

repeating the words Kira wrote to her mommy, smelling the jacket. All of it creates such a disturbing picture of the mind of Helena. Of course she goes after Kira. But I was not expecting the ending at all. The touching scene where Kira asks Helena what happened to her, and with tears in her eyes Helena can not give fathom an answer.

The hug is so sweet. Only a child could be so innocent and tender to such a deviant as Helena. It gave us the views a glimpse into Helena. It shows that even she realizes there is something wrong with her. The revelation is too much. She allows Kira to go back home. But the accident that occurs in front of both Sarah and Helena just may have shaken Helena more then we can guess. We shall see next week I guess.

Orphan Black: (Ep107) "Parts Developed in an Unusual Manner" *Spoilers*

Ok, so here's the I told you so....Paul is on "our" side.
He's a soldier doing a covert mission. Under pressure he didn't crack, although for a second there he gave us cause to worry. I'm pretty sure Sarah has a new puppy in him the way he would lean on her as she confronted Olivier. Something tells me by his physical response to her being there that he sees her as the strong one.

I liked that we see more of Olivier this episode. That guy is creepy! Nice job on the CG, or
prothesis...how ever they made that thing on him... ick!

Enter Helena again! This time we see her in a different light. We see 
her abuser and his control over her. Her fear and yet love for him. She is smart, but socially awkward.



I especially loved how she asked
Sarah to "do lunch" like a normal person, but the second we see her actually eating it's obvious she never really learned how to eat in public. She is intrigued by Sarah over and above the obsession to kill the "its" that look like her. Somehow she makes her way again into the life of Sarah, this time her home (or should I say Beth's home). She eats what she finds, again, and smells things like a dog. It is obvious she has lived a strange life, probably making her a perfect tool in the hands of Thomas to kill off the other Sarah's.  It becomes an even stranger entanglement between Sarah and Helena when Sarah calls her for help and Helena rescues her.





Bravo to Fe this week for not only staying by Sarah but for stepping out into the danger zone a bit
deeper by entering Club Neolution and following Paul. In the scene where they are visiting Mrs C. You can see in his face not only the concern for how deep Sarah has gotten in the whole Clone thing, but also the realization of just how deep she is hits him when Sarah and

Mrs. C start talking and finally bonding over the past and how Sarah came to be in Mrs. C's care; which takes Mrs. C off the list of possible suspected cover-uppers. The sneak peeks at the end are so well done that I can hardly wait to see what happens, which way Mrs. C bends when she is let into the revelation.

And lastly there is Art. His new partner may be a bit of a problem in the near future but thankfully Art is onto some unexplainable stuff that all ties to Beth/Sarah. With the facial recognition and the new finger print run coming up looking like Beth I'm sure he is beginning to feel bewildered and betrayed. His side of this storey should be messy, confused at first but in the end I bet Art will be the best chance the Sarah's have at putting a stop to Helena but also the whole underground illegal cloning thing world wide.

Closing shot is of Helena dancing at Club Neolution with everyone....That has got to be one of the creepiest closing shots I have seen. It shows that she is one psychotic mess.
