Orphan Black (2013) s03e01 Episode Script

The Weight of This Combination

We're clones, we're like lab-rats in an illegal experiment.
These were Rachel's parents.
Project LEDA.
I mean, it's total military speak.
The military created us? We're sick.
Your little girls are dying.
Your attempts to make new clones should meet with failure.
I want the key to your cipher.
The Island of Dr Moreau.
Professor Duncan gave it to me for a present.
- For the embryos.
- Those are my babies? In nine months we'll be welcoming a brand-new you into the world.
My father is the father.
I'm carrying your babies.
Did you burn down the fish people's ranch? No.
Auntie Cosima.
You'll no longer be working with clones.
Frankfurt.
None of this is personal.
If you let her die without me, it is personal.
Kira gave her bone marrow to cure Cosima.
Enjoy your oophorectomy.
- Sarah will never forgive me.
- You did what you had to.
My name is Marian Bowles.
I'm from Topside.
We steer the Dyad group.
This is Project CASTOR.
Oi, meathead, I don't think those are gonna fit.
They're very little.
Maybe you can wear them on your fingers.
They're not for her, silly.
Helena's gonna have a little monkey, too.
Monkey number two.
Felix, that ox liver smells fantastic.
Doesn't it? It's our sister's favourite.
Marinated in horilka all-day.
Mmm.
That'll go perfectly with these.
Are you gonna say "thank you"? Thank you, sister Alison.
Oh, heavens! Just a few things I've made.
This is your special day, Helena.
You and your precious cargo.
Dude, you look awesome.
You look awesome also, sister.
- You are well? - Oh, yeah.
I'm like way better thanks to science.
Check it out.
- Babka cake? - Mmm-hmm.
Kovbasa.
Go ahead.
Dig in.
You're eating for two now.
Relax, Helena.
You remember me, don't you? Yes.
Pupok.
It's been a long time.
You're being tested again.
This time you're carrying a child.
It's called They took me from my sisters.
No one said it was gonna be easy, kiddo.
Are there still fish in the water? Yeah.
Big, sleepy fish, because we never come to visit.
Darling, why don't you go take a stroll down the bend? - See if you can find some fish.
- Mmm-hmm.
- Not too far.
- Mmm-hmm.
See if you can find the monkey fish.
Okay.
Well, it has been a while since we've been - back to shite beach.
- Mmm-hmm.
I think it was your memorial.
That was lovely.
Vic spoke.
Can we just enjoy this, please? Enjoy military boy clones with scars all over their faces? - Don't pretend this is over, Sarah.
- Marian's handling it.
Marian has already buggered off to Europe.
To cover for us.
She's controlling Dyad.
She's the only reason I got out.
Nothing is benevolent with these people, Sarah.
You know it.
We've seen it time and again.
Who's that? What did I tell.
you, Sarah? - Penny's gonna drop.
- Kira, come here.
It's Delphine.
God, she looks good.
Until three weeks ago we didn't even know Project CASTOR existed.
They were a myth.
But now they're a bomb, and shockwaves are coming.
These guys aren't my problem.
I'm sorry, they are.
Rachel has powerful friends, and you put a pencil in her eye.
Listen, please.
There are threats to LEDA from outside and in.
And, Marian, she sent me, yes, to protect Dyad, but to keep your sisters safe.
- Right.
- At any cost.
Have you even talked to your girlfriend yet? I need to show you how we caught him.
Who is that? You wanna? Her name is Krystal Goderich.
I don't wanna see this shit.
It gets worse.
Another one.
We intercepted them as they were forcing her into the trunk of a car.
Now, Krystal was lucky she lived.
But this one killed two members of the security tea m, - and the other one got away.
- Why? What are they after? He hasn't told us so much as his name.
And now he says he will only talk with you.
Well, here I am.
You're a legend, Sarah Manning.
You got a name or a serial number or some shit I can call ya? You're made of the good stuff, aren't you? Krystal had no idea what she was made of.
Found the whole concept very confusing.
I never met her.
No, but you met Alison and Cosima.
And the rest, as they say at Dyad, is, uh What do you want with us? The walls have ears.
Come closer.
I'll.
whisper it to you.
I met one of your brothers, too.
How do you know which one? Yeah, I kicked him in the face.
You think that's funny? He wasn't a soldier, he was a Prolethean.
Was he? It's hard to tell who's who these days.
I mean, what is the wild one doing with Dyad? I'm not with Dyad.
Well, you're trusting the wrong people.
- I only trust my sisters.
- Oh, I know.
It's a family affair.
Felix and your stepmom, Mrs Sadler, and, of course, little Kira.
A child.
Hmm.
How special you are.
Don't you talk about my family.
You come near them, I will kill you.
- Pull her out.
- You piece of shit.
Pull her out now.
Sarah? Count your sisters.
I'm fine, Sarah.
Thank you for asking.
But any boy clone who crosses the Hendrixes is gonna get his butt kicked.
Girls, no bunching.
What about you, Fe? We're doing fine.
We're just hanging out here with my new roomie, Cosima.
Oh! Fish sticks! Ref! Ref! I'm sorry, I have to go.
I have to go, Sarah.
Bye.
Cosima's temperature is down to normal by the way.
She's actually got a bit of colour in her cheeks.
- And Helena? Helena's an albino.
Tell Sarah that Helena hasn't come back.
- What? - Is she talking to Delphine? - Yeah.
- Is she with Delphine? Um, Cosima's telling me to tell you Helena still hasn't shown up.
- Oh, shit! - And I think her bag's gone.
I've got a bad feeling about this.
Well, what do you want us to do about it? Um, meet me at S's, yeah? - Okay.
Bye.
- Yeah.
Okay.
Helena's missing.
No, no.
You and I, we have other priorities.
No, we don't! My priority is my sister, and you're gonna see Cosima.
I warned you about a threat from within.
Topside is sending an investigator to Dyad to assess the security risk posed by you and your sisters.
- That's your problem.
- No.
It's our problem.
The man that is coming is a cleaner.
He cannot find out what we did to Rachel, so you're gonna have to play your part.
What part? You have to play Rachel.
Oh, piss off! - Sarah, please.
- Delphine - We are in this together, please.
- I am leaving, and you're not stopping me, are ya? Yeah.
Okay.
So, I'm going to send you You sit at the very back, okay? - Yoo-hoo! - Hold you sister.
- I'll sit with her.
- Alison? - Hi.
- Hi.
- Okay.
Up you go.
- Driving the soccer stars bus? Look at you helping out! Hi, Marci.
What can I do for you? Well, don't worry.
I'm not trying to list your house.
It's election time again, so can I count on your support for school trustee? You're the incumbent, I'm pretty sure you're safe, Marci.
Honestly, Alison, I am so inspired by your recovery.
You are still a community leader in Bailey Downs.
And you know what? Maybe in exchange for just a smidge of campaigning, I could help revive your monthly potluck.
Urn I heard you plan to tinker electoral boundaries.
Taking Bailey Downs out of the Glendale school district.
Well, uh, that's just one possibility, yes.
That would mean my kids have to change schools.
So instead of supporting you, I've been thinking of running against you.
Really? - Yeah.
- Wow.
So best of luck to you.
Okay, up you go.
Everybody on.
Let's go.
- What are you doing here? - I finally did it, Ali.
I finally told Susan Teller what was what.
Oh, my God! You got fired? Oh, it was frickin' glorious.
I called her a bitch - Shh.
- to her face.
- Donnie, that's enough.
- What? People are watching.
Shush your mouth, and I will see you at home.
Uh, they took the keys to the Taurus.
Honey, they took my Taurus.
- Dad, why are you here? - Okay, inside.
Inside, okay? Good job, honey.
Okay, everybody, hands in, windows up.
On the bus, Donnie.
- Get on the bus! - Okay.
Hi, everybody.
You know my face? Never had the pleasure.
It's not what I asked.
Honestly, I don't know you, son.
Think hard.
One of a kind.
You're a CASTOR? Professor Ethan Duncan was here.
Major Dierden agreed that Project CASTOR would leave me and mine out of this.
I'm not under Dierden's orders.
So, where's Duncan now? With Dyad? Making a big entrance too late, Love.
Duncan went into Dyad, he cared for it so little, he made himself dead.
All.
right.
His research, where is it? Well, it's at Dyad, I assume.
Not the sharpest knife in the box, are you? The eye was lost.
She's sustained some trauma to the frontal lobe.
It's too early to predict an impairment.
Topside is sending Ferdinand.
He lands in three hours.
Topside took action on LEDA before.
There was an incident in 2006.
- Helsinki? - Yes.
Marian briefed me.
I'm here so it doesn't happen again.
I have talked to Sarah.
She mustn't uncover Helsinki.
Not even Rachel knows.
Can I count on you, Dr Nealon, to put LEDA above its individuals? Neither of us can afford to play favourites now, can we? No, we can't.
Can you hear us? Two bloody boy clones in one day! What the hell is it that they want all of a sudden? Well, this one wanted Duncan, his research.
I'm sorry.
Sarah, I made I made a wartime decision.
It's only a matter of time before you find out.
What have you done? It was the only way I could see to get you out of Dyad.
Marian wanted CASTOR information and Paul wanted something in return.
Helena? It's what I had to do at the time.
What, betray my sister? - Give her to them? - For Kira.
That's not your bloody decision, S, is it? Does Dyad know about this? - Did Cal? - No.
It was Paul's demand.
I I had to choose.
- Sarah, stop.
- Don't.
Please.
Don't turn your back on me.
Not on your people.
You're not my people.
Great.
Stick me in the middle with a bloody apple in my mouth.
Please, go after her.
Don't Let her make it worse.
Well, she's gonna make it worse.
She will.
But right now, I need to get you to a hospital so I'm calling Benjamin.
This girl just fell on her face.
- Ouch.
- Like there's a cliff and there's barely any water at the bottom.
Hey, can I ask you something? Yeah.
Do you, um, remember when you were waking me up to tell me to read that story to you? - Yeah.
- Yeah? I was having this dream where I was, like, way above, and I could see below, and then I came back To you.
Did you feel that thing? I don't know.
Yeah.
I don't know, too.
I don't really have words for what I'm trying to say.
You had to come back so Delphine could make you better with my stem cells.
Hello, Cosima? It's me.
- Hey.
- Hey.
Oh, I am so happy you're back.
I only have a minute, so Oh, okay.
just a minute? You are not wearing your cannula.
- Are you feeling okay? - Yeah, I'm fine.
Don't, don't Don't mother me.
What's going on? I'm looking for Sarah.
Is she Is she here? Because she won't answer my calls.
- No.
- I'm sorry.
This, um This Rachel problem is very Critical, so I need her help.
You just talk to me.
I am taking over some of Rachel's duties, so I won't be working with you and Scott for a while.
So you're the new Rachel.
Awesome.
Cosima, I am keeping my promise to love all of your sisters equally.
But to do that, I can't do this.
Do you understand? Okay.
I get it.
Mmm.
Your minute's up, you should probably just go.
Look, we all have our part to play, me, Sarah, Alison, but yours is to cure.
Yourself, and all.
of your sisters.
I Love you.
Scott is going to come to do a check-up.
Okay.
Oh, my God.
Well, I've run the numbers.
You can't run from numbers, Donnie.
We have one mortgage payment left.
Well, we're not taking from our retirement fund.
Look, look, look.
I've got $347.
82 in expenses from when I was a monitor, so that's good.
Plus, I am incredibly employable.
But, you know, honey, I was thinking maybe you could work with your mom again part-time at Bubbles for a bit.
I will dig ditches for this family, but I am not going back to work in my mother's store.
Besides, I have a bee in my bonnet.
- I wanna run for school trustee.
- You do? Well, Marci Coates wants to change the district boundaries.
I know.
I heard she's manipulating real estate prices.
Yes! Yeah, Marci's gotta go.
- Mmm-hmm.
- For the kids.
Yes.
Oh, it's Dyad.
There was an emergency.
Sarah's up to her eyeballs.
Is she okay? Hello.
Delphine.
How could S do that to Helena? I mean, who am I meant to call family now? You can't put them all under your wing.
What should I do? Should I abandon her? Just like everyone else has done her entire Life.
For you and Kira I'd have done the same thing.
I'd have done the same thing that Siobhan did.
Leave S out of it, please? This is the other thing, Delphine.
Delphine's got your number? Well, we definitely need new clone phones.
She wants my help saving LEDA and Dyad.
Jesus! Don't these people know you never even finished high school? Piss off! Maybe she can help me.
Help you? With what? Help you with Helena? Yeah.
Please don't.
Please? Hi, Delphine.
I won't condone this, Delphine, Rachel's a stretch for her.
It will be brief.
Ferdinand knows Rachel, but it's my meeting.
You can just say hello and then excuse yourself.
You have a cleaner named Ferdinand? You don't think I can do this? Rachel Duncan, uber bitch.
That was terrible.
If you're gonna do this, then you need to wear white.
Okay? White dazzles.
God knows you'll need distraction.
Yea h, that's good.
The deal is, you're gonna help me with Helena, yeah? - Don't say yes.
- Yes.
But let's take it one step at a time.
Well, (ASTOR has her, so what are you gonna do about that? Everything I can.
But first, we need to get through this inquisition.
Ferdinand can sense anything amiss.
If we falter, he will smell it.
Well, don't falter, Delphine.
Give us some space, I have to change.
- Hey! - So your blood pressure's pretty good.
- Yeah.
- How's your heart? Oh, I am done with the French.
Seriously, Cosima.
With soldier clones running around and, you know, all this lesbian drama, uh, I don't know that I wanna work on this super-secret shit any more.
Oh, okay.
Yeah, I get it.
Um, but you might want to check this out.
The Island of Dr Moreau.
Yeah, it was gift from Professor Duncan.
Dude, this could be his key to unlock the rest of the synthetic sequences.
Mmm-hmm.
Does Delphine know you have this? I've Learned from Dyad that secrets are power.
And until you and I decipher it no one's gonna know about it.
Not even my sisters.
Okay, hold.
Welcome to the Dyad Institute.
Enjoy your oophorectomy.
Ferdinand? Welcome.
Delphine Cormier.
Dr Cormier, yes.
Rachel.
Nice to see you again, Ferdinand.
I'm so sorry, I'm between flights.
I need you both.
Please.
In the light of the CASTOR revelation, Topside has engaged me to conduct a security review of Dyad.
We understand.
Marian has held a living, breathing CASTOR subject in her basement for three weeks.
- Yes.
- Without reporting it? I believe she needed genetic confirmation.
Like you, I've only just been brought up to speed.
Who else is aware? Dr Nealon, Rachel, and myself.
We are the only ones in the loop.
Paul Dierden? It appears he was a CASTOR mole.
You let him get right next to you.
He was her monitor.
Dr Leekie put him there.
You have consent over your monitors.
I consented, yes, to Dr Leekie's choice.
There's more.
CASTOR has kidnapped Helena, Sarah Manning's maternal twin.
Is this true? Yes.
You're holding Sarah Manning, correct? - Yes.
- I'd like to question her.
Is that really necessary? It is Necessary.
Whatever you need.
After you, Rachel.
Holy doodle! Here we go.
Oi, oi, Rachel.
Shut up.
Never gets old, does it? Yea h, it does.
Take it as a compliment, Miss Manning.
You have a face to fight wars for.
But when the wild seed blows back into the fold with something like CASTOR on our heels, I get suspicious.
What's CASTOR? What's that? Sarah, this is very important.
In all your unmonitored wanderings through our murky history - What? - have you ever met a male clone? - Answer the question.
- No, no.
Why, are you one? No.
Never met a soldier-boy, eh? - No whisperings from Professor Duncan? - No.
No.
I've only met my sisters.
- Sisters? - Mmm-hmm.
You really are the wild one, aren't you? Tell me, Rachel, 50 years from now you think your kind will still be calling each other "sister"? I would hope we'd just be another person in the checkout Line.
Jolly good.
What are you doing? What are you doing? Ferdinand, please.
Uh-uh-uh.
What, what's happening? I thought you're recovering from surgery.
Oh, get your hands off me, you pig! You watch your mouth! Ferdinand, may we have a word? We had to postpone the oophorectomy.
Your goal is to isolate her fecundity ASAP.
Why are you waiting? I'm not a doctor.
You cannot remove the ovary of a woman who is ovulating.
I know it is inconvenient, but she's contained.
No risk to Topside.
Then remove her to her cell, please.
I know you're Lying.
About flying anywhere tonight.
Is that for my benefit or hers? I wouldn't attempt to pull the wool over your eyes, Ferdinand.
I am surprised that your nemesis is still breathing.
- Why did you let him do that - Shh.
Not getting cold feet, are you? Things are already in motion.
Sarah's biology is too unique to waste.
So, by the way, is Helena's.
We need to locate her.
We need to discuss Helsinki.
Well, I want to discuss Helena.
Then I'll come to you, tonight.
When I finish dinner, all.
right? I look forward to it.
He's doing it again.
Guy thinks he's the naked Buddha.
I'm doing my rounds.
I'll.
be back.
Look, don't Don't worry about me guys, okay? Sarah, these people are dangerous.
I thought Mr Rubber Gloves was gonna throttle me on the spot.
I know, I'm sorry.
I just don't believe that Helena is a priority for Delphine.
We have to make our own moves.
No, you're right.
We can't rely on anybody but ourselves.
We should go after her, the poor thing.
No! No, no, no.
You tell Sarah I don't want you doing anything like this ever again.
I gotta go, Be careful, Sarah.
Hey, I love you guys.
Yeah, me too.
Hello again.
Hello, Rachel.
I warned you this was personal.
What day is it, huh? What's my name? Come on.
What? What What happened to my Oh, come on.
Come on, you can do better than that.
- What's my name? - Stop! Stop, Delphine! There! There we go.
There you go.
Good girl.
Only, I'm you now, you understand that? I'm you.
And I will erase you completely, Rachel, unless you tell me what you're planning with Ferdinand.
- Ferdinand - Yeah.
What have you got going on with him? And don't lie because I saw it.
You You saw - You saw? - Come on.
Helsinki.
Oh.
You wicked sister.
You're not supposed to know about that.
Now what else do you know? Huh? You're gonna talk to me.
You're gonna talk to me! - Drink? - Same as last time.
At the Crown bar.
You've come all this way, why not try some local colour? Rachel.
Rachel, Rachel.
Why haven't you been returning my calls? Appearances, Ferdinand.
Bourbon, rocks.
So, the subject was Helena.
You're not yourself.
Did you sleep with Paul Dierden? He was my monitor, what do you think? I think he was your bitch.
Hello, again.
Who's a dirty clone? You are.
You're avoiding Helena.
I want you to consider a prisoner swap with CASTOR.
It's got nothing to do with CASTOR.
This is about Helsinki.
You wanted this! Marian is too soft! You said it yourself, if we didn't act, your sisters could expose Topside.
Helsinki's the only option.
- There are other options.
- No, it's too late.
Be strong! Helsinki girls were eradicated in 24 hours.
Six clones, 32 collateral.
As soon as you have Sarah's ovaries, put her down.
Induce Cosima tomorrow, and she'll deteriorate rapidly.
And Alison Hendrix? It's underway.
Family chloroformed, followed by a house fire.
Proven effective by the Finns! Excuse me.
I need a moment.
Oh, my God.
Pick up! Hello, you've reached Alison Hendrix.
I'm away from the phone, but leave a message and I'll get back to you in a jiff.
Alison, get out of your house! Now! Take the kids and get Who you talking to in here? No one.
What game are you playing, Rachel? Hmm? What are you up to? I don't know what you're talking about.
Something is going on.
If you're not careful, Helsinki will swallow you too.
Then you won't get what you want.
I want my sister spared.
No You want the child, don't you? More than anything? So, if you're having second thoughts, remember Kira.
Please.
Poor, damaged Rachel.
What happened to you? Hmm? Who's behind that face? You don't recognise me, Ferdinand.
No.
Do you recognise me now? Yes! - Do you recognise me now? - Yes! Yes! Pull it.
Do you remember our safe word? No! Stop! Come on, stop! Come on.
Get up.
Go.
- What is this - Shut up and stop squirming! I I'm sanctioned by Topside.
To conduct a security review of self-aware clones, not screw our product! Helsinki's happening, Delphine.
Won't Marian be impressed? Conspiring with one clone to murder the others.
Now who will pay for this, hmm? Her? Topside's favourite pet, or you, Ferdinand? Because they will kill you.
What do you want? Marian will meet us in Zürich.
You report to Topside that Dyad is secure.
And self-aware LEDA clones an essential evolution of the programme.
I know how leverage works.
Good.
Wait for me downstairs.
Rachel? Rachel was going to eliminate us.
- Everybody we love.
- Yes.
- They've done it before.
- You should've told me.
I only did this for Helena.
I know.
I counted on it.
You said you'd help me find her.
I already am.
But until I figure out what CASTOR really is, you need to stand down.
And don't try anything else.
I'll be back.
My legs hurt.
Picture a box inside a box, inside a box.
She's been in almost 48 hours.
All.
right.
In you go.
Congratulations.
You escaped the first box.
I swear this guy's from another world or something.
Hello, brother.
I'm trying to figure out what these maniacs are after.
She says they have the same tattoo.
Both the LEDA and CASTOR originals are lost.
Yet another mystery.
Helena, I'm very happy to meet you.
I could beat her, Donnie.
I could beat her like a French meringue.
You have your orders.
We're gonna finish the job.
