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.
