William has told them that the labs work on the pathogens in order to make cures. It's the Soviet hierarchy that are convinced the US is weaponizing them and wants their own strains so they can also defend themselves. (Of course, it's just as likely that they want the strains so that they can weaponize it as well. Go…

Squash would have had a smaller racquet with a longer neck. You also don't swing as hard with your full arm; you use more of the flick of your wrist.

Sorry, meant Castor - got my Greek heroes mixed up.

Although I wonder if he knows that only Sarah and Helena are fertile. Rachel isn't producing any heirs.

I don't think they've made the connection to more clones yet. At this point they just believe BrightBorn is all about genetically modified/improved babies, not necessarily more Kendalls/Ledas/Hectors.

She buried her no longer viable eggs (she didn't realize she needed more liquid nitrogen to keep them cool) in the Hendrixes' flowerbed, said a quick eulogy and prayer over them, marked them with an Orthodox cross and then she picked up her belongings and left.

I think it was to highlight the difference between "I mince and I'm gay" and "I mince because I'm gay". Being gay is a part of who Felix is - it colors every aspect of his life but it doesn't determine every aspect of his behavior. Donnie playing gay just means be Donnie for whom being gay is a part, not the defining…

And any act on his part would make him the prime suspect in Lisa's murder. He's already known as an abusive alcoholic who wanted her out of his life.

Because them dying in any suspicious manner is going to turn Paige against her parents. She's not an idiot.

A wealthy recovering junkie and his friend get the chance to make a mediocre paint-by-numbers indie due to Hollywood nepotism.

There was a running theme throughout the episode about people finding somewhere where they can just be themselves. Philip had his relationship with Martha. He tries to work out its ramifications through est while Elizabeth shits all over it. Paige had the church until Elizabeth twists it. Young-hee has it with her…

He also did excellent work on the FX adaptation of Broen/The Bridge. The guy is actually talented.

Smith is a film school dropout - I wouldn't put a Godard reference past him.

I think Smith was inspired by Godard's Je vous salue, marie(Hail Mary). There are a pair of (possible) angels in similar clothing.

Angie was the cop who was poking around Alison until the clones used Vic the Dick to discredit her investigation.

12) Rachel-Charlotte: Rachel's actually bonding with her own clone! Between getting her message to (presumably) Ferdinand and helping with physical therapy, Charlotte is humanizing our coldest clone.

Give his soundtrack to About A Boy a look. It's a little more wistful in mood and sparser with the instrumentation than his other stuff.

I just replied further up that Lost Souls would have been my pick for the Mercury Prize that year.

Looking at the nominees that year, I would go for Lost Souls by Doves.

The blockquote is from Dre's voiceover, which tends to open most episodes.
