Sarah (Tatiana Maslany) can't shake the feeling that Paul (Dylan
Bruce), the boyfriend of dead Beth she's inpersonating, is actually spying
on her for the organisation that's behind cloning Sarah, and the fact that
Beth had borrowed some surveillance equipment suggests Beth suspected the
same. And soon, another clone, Alison (also Tatiana Maslany), starts
having an odd feeling ab out her own husband, Donnie (Kristian Bruun) and
tries to find out if he's indeed her husband or just her monitor. In the meantime, Sarah's ex Vic (Michael Mando) is
kindly asked for the cocaine Sarah has stolen from him, and when he's
unable to deliver, one of his finger's cut off. Then though he sees Alison
in a parking lot, and mistaking her for Sarah, he tries to apprehend her,
but she fights him off - but that also means Sarah's plot of faking her
own death has just gone down the toiled. She pays Vic out with the money
she just got from Alison for protection, but he's sure to be back. Eventually,
Sarah finds definite proof that Paul's more Beth's monitor than her
boyfriend, but that's when Paul confronts her with the fact that he knows
she's actually not Beth. And all Sarah finds out from him is that he's
indeed her monitor, but has no clue what's going on otherwise, either ... Another
strong episode that again manages to continue spinning the net of intrigue
immanent to the series as a whole while telling an engaging story of its
own that at the same time manages to give closure to some points and whet
the audience's episode for more.
