Howdy, listeners! It’s the penultimate episode of season 5 (we think) and the penultimate episode of the whole show (most likely). We don’t know how, or why, but Ms. S never made it past the opening credits. Luckily, Sarah has broken Helena out of The Dyad and if anyone can dispense revenge/justice it is her. Thanks for listening!

OB S05E03 – Is Mud a Ghost? – Beneath Her Heart
Welcome to season 5 episode 3 of Orphan Black! It’s a much-needed and long-awaited Alison episode this week and we even get some juicy flashbacks. Alison has a lot of skeletons in her closet. That is partly a metaphor but mostly just a cold hard fact. For better or for worse, Alison is steadying herself and setting her sights on action, ready to bring her family back into the fold. Thanks for listening!
