Orphan Black 5x05 Ease for Idle Millionaires  
The way we're watching Cos analyze the tooth of the guy in the woods makes it look like we'll find out what he is. Ooh, is he transgenic à la Dark Angel?

N'aaaw, a Cosima/Delphine flashback!

Cosima's inoculation? Wait, wait, wait... does that mean Cosima isn't getting her treatment? Or only that Rachel is getting it too?

"I've hidden the knives." Heh.

The lack of sweetness between Cosima and Delphine hurts.
Are they saying that Westmoreland and Co. are kinda employing cancer for regeneration? Reminds me of The X-Files's Leonard Betts episode.

Confirmation that Kira's mouse is okay, phew!
Heee, elbow mouse!
Sooo... I just had a thought about that mental/emotional connection between the clones. Could it be explained by something like quantum entanglement?

I'm confused. Why does Siobhan want to look for someone who died? Why should that not be the real Westmoreland? That would be a bit of a disappointment.
Thought from several minutes later: Oh, did she mean the impostor faked his death to take on Westmoreland's identity?

"Frock that." Hahaha. I would pay, though, to see Cos in such a dress!

Niiiiice! I mean, I'm still a bit disappointed that Cosima isn't wearing one of those dresses, but that suit suits her! Also: Now you two get married, you're already wearing perfect outfits for it! Hey, have I mentioned that I'd be really crushed if at the end of the show Cos and Delphine don't live happily ever after?

Ooh, we get to hear about Cosima's parents. Finally we know why we haven't heard from them!
Ugh, I'm starting to believe it! You know, that this guy might not be Westmoreland. That look towards him from Susan, just after Cosima said "know that everything is a lie". And that comes a few seconds after Cosima had said things about Darwin as if she was questioning this Westmoreland's knowledge (Is she also suspecting that he's just an impostor?).

Oh, so that regeneration gene was put into the Leda genome. Now we finally know of something they changed from the original genome!

I'm so confused. They don't know yet if the trait is heritable? I thought we were already shown that it was. Didn't it manifest in Sarah and Helena too? Although maybe they don't heal as fast as Kira, but I was under the impression that they heal faster than normal.

And now I'm more confused. They want to harvest Kira's eggs and they have that surrogate program planned to start that night. How is that supposed to work? Storywise only a year has passed since the start of the show, when Kira was 8. Therefore she's just 9 now - where are the eggs supposed to come from?

Oh shit, Ira has started glitching. Not the one good Castor clone we have left!

Poor Yanis. ;_;
