Since the opening of the season premier, Orphan Black have been caught in an inevitable mystery waiting to be solved--the five why, the endless question.
And so we are here again with Sarah Manning, running around, poking the hornet's nest, and getting some puzzle together. Is not that we don't want to know the answer to the question of the clone's origin. But by overlaying the whole intensive depression on the story line, Orphan Black is going on a road of no turning back, or going forward.
The ending will be the big reveals, some questions get answered, but the answers carry even more questions. And Orphan Black will entangle itself into a lost circle, an maze without exit.
I don't like the show as much as Season 1. It was the dawn of discovery, the clones carries a weight as an individual entity. Their personality were shown and made a compelling character. And I love about how their separate life collided together, the messy, girly, panicky plan to resolve the huddles ahead.
Now. Now is a completely different story. The flavor of Season 1 was gone, like a human body with the backbones ripped out. It's still a functioning story, but the characters are as good as dead. Only Sarah got to move about, other characters either tail behind her or ambush her.
The lab thing and the origin is a dead man's drop. That's what I will say about Orphan Black at the moment. With 4 episodes left for later air time, I suspect the season finale will also be the end of the Clone Club, if nothing changes in the current affairs.
