I rewatched the scene last night and it brought me to tears, it's so fucking intense.
'Underneath'
Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon
A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.
Aw, dang, Paul's back in it next week. I don't know if it's the character or the actor, but damn, he is dull.
Orphan Black's very own Ward.
The end of the episode was one of those I'm just gonna wander around the house dealing with all these emotions before I try to do anything or read something or watch other TV things. Intense is right.
Paul makes Ward look like the Most Interesting Man in the World by comparison. Uggghhhhh, he just sucks all the air out of his scenes.
The actor is just bland. It's too bad, because as written, Paul could have been an interesting character in a right actor's hands.
Well, the poor guy is stuck acting opposite Tatiana, which can't be easy. But, yeah, definitely a sore thumb in a show that's otherwise very well cast.

So is everyone else on the show, and they're doing okay.
I don't mind Paul, especially when he's less than fully clothed, but I guess I am surprised to see he's still part of the storyline.
I'm a little worried they're making Allison's story too goofy, though.
So there was about 1 episode (or 2) when I really liked Paul. I don't know what happened between then and now, but damn.
I agree with the comments about Sarah/Helena. That was just damn.
I feel really bad for Allison. She is a killer of course, but to realize you have been married to your handler? I mean what a mindfuck.
Hey, aired promos are fair game, right? Here's Orphan Black promo for 2x05: [link]
I am PSYCHED about Felix and Art sharing a scene with Helena. And Helena badassedly assembling or loading {?) that big-ass, uhm, sniper rifle, maybe! (Look, I know nothing about guns.) Is she gonna go all Rambo on the Prolethians? If so, I'm making popcorn.
