[bunniefuu]

Krystal Goderitch.

That's hot!

She's... investigating this sh*t.

Identical twin abductors? How freaky is that?!

Things keep happening to me!

Ah!

Hi!

This is Adele, my biological sister. We're going to pose as perspective parents to determine if this is a Neolutions front.

So, who's gonna be the father?

together: I am.

Portia Grossman's pregnant? The Grossmans gave up on IVF years ago!

Ask for the Bightborn treatments.

I'm Evie Cho, CEO and founder of the Brightborn Group.

It's like a whole new side to Neolution At Brightborn Technologies, we're making the world a better place one baby at a time.

♪

Sure you're ready for this?

That's the aggression.

Center your feet, feel the mat.

Get off me!

Great aggression...

Your creepy brother! Unh!

Whoa-whoa-whoa! What was that?

I'm sorry, I...

I got kidnapped by twins once, nearly, uh... (panting)

They k*lled my boyfriend, Hector.

Sometimes it just takes a tragedy to find your own resilience. You know what I mean?

Yeah, yeah, I feel you.

Can we try other choke holds?

Yeah, lemme show you this one.

OK.

What you wanna do is change the leverage position, OK?

Give me an elbow to the mid-section.

Good. sh*t to the groin... perfect.

You know, you can be a victim, or you can totally get to the bottom of it, you know?

Good, good.

So, I've been doing all this internet research, and I've discovered that DYAD, Hector and the twins; they're all connected. OK, so... Umph!

Damn, girl!

What the hell you been doing that got you so strong?

I'm training like I'm on a mission.

Can we do it again?

You wanna do it again?

Yeah! Hell yeah.

Alright. Go, let's start.

I'm gonna be ready for them this time.

From the top.

OK.

(grunts)

Ah! Yah!

sh*t, woman!

WOO!!

(theme music)

When you're painting, you want to go side to side if it's long... Right. and then, things like the clouds or the mountains all point to the castle 'cause they're really high.

You have to paint up and down.

Is this like Uncle Felix's mural?

Don't tell Felix, but I like this much better.

(giggles)

Don't tell him that.

(SMS alarm)

Let me guess, you have to go.

No, nothing is getting in the way of having a fun day together!

(giggling): No!

Not even dragons!

(chuckles and chumping sounds)

Hey.

Hey.

Did you see that research that Alison sent?

Did you look at it?

Yeah, I... glanced at it.

Her and Cosima are obsessed with this Brightborn IVF Neolution connection.

Yeah, but that Evie Cho... she was on the board of DYAD.

Oi. "GeneConnexion".

That's the company Felix used to find his bio-sister?

I don't know, is it?

They're owned by Brightborn I knew there was something about Adele...

NO! No you don't. It's probably a coincidence.

I've researched everywhere, academic journals, medical forums... I can't find any data on the Brightborn Treatments.

The enhancement for embryos?

Enhancement could mean anything. Whatever these clients are paying for, Brightborn isn't sharing it with the scientific community.

Oh, Dude... the "Exclusive Brightborn Orientation" is today.

I know, that's why I'm trying to get Sarah to hustle her way in with Donnie, but she's... spending the day with Kira. So, I have to stuff 500 envelopes and cancel my committee meeting on new math.

Right, so what were you gonna do in there exactly?

I don't know, Sarah, things, skulk around, look miserable, con people.

OK, you don't even know what you're looking for in there.

I know the science, I'll go.

Really? Are you feeling up to it?

Put me in, coach, I'm ready.

OK, Donnie will pick you up!

Great.

Douglas Andrews, Venture Capitalist, ready for Brightborn Orientation.

The plans have changed, Cosima is now carrying your child, Donnie.

Oh! OK.

Um... so wait, is she gonna be co-parenting this child with Julian and I, or is she just gonna be carrying the baby?

Donnie, the baby's fake, it doesn't matter.

Well, it matters... to get the story straight.

No. Pitter-patter.

It... it matters.

(finger snap)

Come on, slow poke!

Ahem! Yeah, you're too fast for me, there, babes!!

Ready?

(knocking)

Uncle Felix!

(He laughs.)

Hello, my little traveler!

Look at you! Look at this jacket, it's brilliant, isn't it!

Did you paint all this?

I did, yeah darling, I painted all of them.

Ever hear of calling first?

No. S wants you to come to dinner.

Is that a rocket ship?

You can call it that. I've met men who do.

Uh... this Geneconnexion thing, the way you found Adele, it's connected to Neolution.

Oh my God.

Oh my God, you're still on this. I don't understand.

I realize it's a substantial retainer, Frank.

Oh, hi Sarah! I'm expensive because I'm worth it, Frank. Hello?

Hi!

Hi. You're still here.

Yeah, I never left. I love this city.

It's adorable.

What's your name?

Kira.

Oh, hello.

Felix's real sister.

Real sister, how?

Uh, we have the same father.

I thought you didn't have a father.

Well, I didn't, but now, I do. Or I did. You know what, it's a long story.

(Adele sniffles.)

Alright, anyone for mimosas?

(more sniffling)

So, Why can't Douglas wear a suit?

'Cause if you can afford Brightborn, you're beyond suits.

Uh, beyond Armani?

Trust me, I know these people, I grew up in Northern California and it's like the epicenter of obscene wealth, and technological intervention.

Douglas is a high net worth individual who's pining for a baby.

Oh, hey, I know Douglas. I already played him with Felix.

You can't come in and just change my character.

Okay, Sorry.

Douglas is... is chill. He's a chill dude, OK?

Totally.

I'm gay, but I'm not, like, super gay, so... maybe, don't play the lesbian angle too much?

I'm just gonna let that one... slide.

Wow. I look like a geriatric skateboarder.

Yeah! It's perfect.

Alright. Uh, this is you.

Alison makes kick-ass I.D.

Ava Jakubowski?

Mm-hm.

I don't know...

(elevator bell)

Good afternoon.

Hi.

May I get the names in your conception team, please?

Yes, I'm Douglas Andrews.

Here's my...

Ah, thank you.

Perfect. Thanks.

Will your husband Julian be joining us today?

No, Julian is closing a deal in Palo Alto today.

But this is our surrogate, Ava...

Jacket-jet-ski?

Jakubowski.

Jakubowski.

Jakubowski.

J-A-K...

Ahem! Thank you.

(clicks on keyboard)

Welcome, Ava.

Thanks.

We'll start with our non-disclosure agreements.

Just sign where the stickers are.

Can I get a copy of this?

Uh, once you sign, for sure!

These are your wristbands, and orientation is in the lounge in five. You picked a good weekend:

(whispering): Evie Cho is here in person.

Seriously?

Yeah, I'm in stand-by mode. I can do a sibling DNA test.

Why do you need one?

Uh, no... no reason.

Where's Cosima?

She's uh... out for a walk. I mean, a day-long hike.

Some walking thing.

What?! Scott, where is she?

You tell me and I'll tell you!

Why do you need a sibling DNA test?

'Cause I'm trying to figure out if Felix's bio sister is real or not.

OK. Get me hair or saliva samples.

And Cosima went undercover into Brightborn.

She... what?

This place is sweet!

She co-authored Leekie's artificial womb project. Creepy sh*t.

OK, well if she's a high level Neo, won't she know what a clone looks like?

(big sigh)

Blend.

(He sighs.)

I need to find the lab.

How?

Hello.

Is this your first Brightborn baby?

Yeah.

My son Georgie is two now, and he is just perfect.

Oh yeah!

Good afternoon, everyone.

There's Evie! I love her.

(applause)

Thank you. (little laugh)

So... Why are we all here?

Peace of mind, personally.

All due respect to natural childbirth.

Yes, nature can be cruel.

When my parents rolled their genetic dice, a single mutation turned me into "the girl in the plastic bubble".

My immune system was severely compromised, a condition known as SCID.

Severe Combined Immunodeficiency.

I had pneumonia eight times. I had a bone marrow transplant.

The doctors told us this was my life.

But the Chos are a fierce and stubborn family.

My parents... they lobbied, researched and mortgaged our home to keep going.

In 1994, I entered an experimental gene therapy trial.

By the time I graduated from bio-engineering, I was in full remission.

And as an engineer, when I see a flaw, I wanna fix it.

First position, heels together.

Very nice, perfect!

That is so good!

Aren't you a bit tall for ballet?

Ha! Puberty was a real heartbreak.

(little laugh)

OK. Now, think of your hips as a bowl of fruit, so you don't wanna tilt one side or the other too much 'cause then, your grapes are gonna go falling out, right?

Alright, so... second position, remember? Yeah!

It's beautiful! Oh my gosh, you're so good!

Hm! Hm!

You are a very talented dancer.

Thank you!

You're welcome. Is that why you're always travelling?

You on tour?

I went to go live in Iceland with my Granny.

In Iceland? Wow!

I thought your foster family was Irish.

Yeah, yeah, Irish travelers and no fixed address.

Do you know how to dance like an Irish traveler, huh?

I don't know!

(giggles)

Ah, Kira, we gotta go.

Already?

Gotta go see Scotty, check out some comics!

(chuckles)

Yeah?

Good. Sorry, big day.

Kira and Adele: Bye!

♪

(chuckling): Oh my God! I'm late.

I'm late for my own pregnancy.

That's fine.

Your name please?

Christine Wingham.

I have heard so much about you guys.

I am so excited about my own little Brightborn baby.

So, what makes a Brightborn baby different?

And why is it so expensive?

The fees aren't just for five-star services.

They fund research. Our exclusive technology identifies and enhances your most viable embryos.

Enhances your embryos how?

I have no idea, I'm... fairly lost.

...can actually help you do that.

And that is my cue. Again, welcome to Brightborn.

Your child will thank you.

(applause)

Hi, everyone. I'm Dr. Bosch.

Check your wristbands. Red, you're off for a facilities tour. Blue, stay put.

We're gonna talk about pre and post-natal care and I'll be able to answer any of your questions.

I'm gonna snoop around and find the lab, okay?

Be careful.

Legitimately signing my life away here. It's a lot of paperwork! (giggles)

I'm just kidding. But I'm willing to make that sacrifice.

As a mother, it's worth it.

Susan.

Welcome.

Evie, such a beautiful facility you built here.

Ira loves the pool.

Yes. I didn't know you were coming too, Ira.

The incident at your dental clinic is all of our concern.

It was Sarah Manning and her people who k*lled your technician.

Which is what I want to tell you, Susan, I think your runaway clone is here.

Sarah Manning's at Brightborn?

I saw her conning her way into Orientation.

I'll get Roxie to pick her up.

Not yet.

Let me see her first.

Nothing. No jaundice, no colic.

He sleeps well, latched right away.

I gotta say I get a little... choked up when I come back here.

(chuckles)

We were ready to adopt, and I'm sure our family would have been full of love, but wanting a baby, it's a natural urge.

Not just an urge, it's an imperative. Every living species seeks to propagate. Our genes have a selfish drive to multiply.

Would you like to hold him?

Ah, yeah, yeah!

(baby cooing)

Hey, buddy! How are ya?

(cooing and chuckles)

Oh my God, he is so cute! Look at him and those little dimples! Hello!

Hello, Mr. Dimples! Look at him!

He's adorable!

Um...

I have to go... sh*t.

Salt-water pools, Shiatsu and Swedish massage, body wraps and yoga. Our birthing suites feature squat bars, rocking chairs, jacuzzi tubs and extra rooms for friends and family.

(shutter click and elevator bell)

I'm just going to grab a smoothie. Two seconds.

Where are you going?

I'll be right there.

You have back-to-back C-sections right now.

Yeah, yeah, I know.

Fine, I'll be down in the lab.

Excuse me! The other floors are off limits.

Are you with a group?

Uh... uh, yeah! Yeah.

Thanks!

(indistinct chatter)

Detective!

I wanted to show you something. Do you, um...

Do you know what this is?

It says she's Alison Hendrix.

Uncanny, right?

How much... she looks... like Beth.

I don't see it.

Thank you.

Maintain that position.

You don't wanna go sticking your neck out for the Hendrixes.

Now, why is that?

Detective Collier and Lindstein, they have them on the Pouchy Pouchino thing.

The triple homicide?

Not yet, but they do have them moving Pouchy's pills.

And you know what? They sold the dr*gs through a soap store. Bubble bath and sh*t.

Unbelievable, right?

What goes on in the suburbs never ceases to surprise.

So... one cop to another... (snicker)

Focus on your real family.

Your kids, your ex.

Let Beth go.

You and Cosima, you guys have to fight all the bad guys.

Is this like the dream that you were telling Cosima about, with the sisters in it?

No.

No? So, um, do you wanna talk about anything else, about your dad, or...?

I just wanna play with you.

I guess we'll play!

All right, I'm assaying 16 key loci, shouldn't be too long.

You want the glass back? And that'll confirm that...

Not 100%, but I should be able to tell if they're siblings.

(cell ringing)

Sorry.

Art, what's going on?

What the hell are the Hendrixes up to?

I don't know, what are they up to?

Duko just warned me to steer clear of them.

He said they're dealing pills out of Bubbles.

What?!

You know anything about this?

Come on, no!

'Cause I've looked the other way on a lot of sh*t for you guys.

But if I had dinner in a drug front, I'm exposed.

Oh, I'll deal with it, alright?

Yeah, you do that.

You're on your own on this one.

That doesn't sound good.

Yeah, um... Ahem!

Do you guys wanna just play up here for a bit?

And I'm gonna call Auntie Alison.

Please tell me you're not drug dealers.

Former. OK? Yes, we dabbled briefly in prescription pharmaceuticals, but that's all done now.

And as I recall, when we met, you were trying to offload a kilo of cocaine.

That was for Kira. I was desperate!

Yes well, so were we! We were gonna lose our house, Sarah!

I don't care about your bloody house. Art's job is on the line.

OK, I get it, you're mad!

I understand! But what do the cops know?

Did Art mention Helena?

What... what about Helena?

Hm... nothing.

Alison, I swear to God...

She seems to have disappeared. She's left.

Left?

Yes, I don't know. Yesterday or the day before.

There's camping gear missing.

Camping gear missing! Where is she?

I don't know. Look, I am not your preggo sister's keeper, OK? You dumped Helena on us three months ago, only to bring all this crap back on us.

You are so self-righteous, you know that?! Hello?

Bitch.

Bitch.

(indistinct chatter)

Is this seat taken?

Oh, don't stop reading on my account.

We encourage our clients to be diligent.

Did you have any questions I might answer?

I'm Susan, by the way.

Ava. Hi.

I'm not a... lawyer or anything, but...

I... I just... noticed that under, um... cryopreservation, "written notice within 36 months of any remaining embryos".

Does that mean that if I don't notify my embryos just become property of Brightborn?

You can't own an embryo.

They're donated for research.

What kind of research, exactly?

Oh, it's all rather technical, actually.

Oh! Oh, sorry.

(clearing her throat): I... I... I'm a...

I was biology major.

So, I noticed that in all of the pictures...

Thank you, by the way... the babies have dimples.

It's highly unlikely for that to express itself in every child. Perhaps babies with dimples are more likely to be photographed.

So, it's my confirmation bias, then?

Perhaps.

Right. When you say embryonic enhancement, what exactly is that referring to?

Is that mitochondrial transfer?

We have been very successful at eliminating certain genetic risk factors.

There's some kind of screening process, then?

Our technique is more direct.

You don't mean germline editing?

Altering the DNA of an embryo is very risky. Any mistake, and that mutation is passed on to future generations.

And that is why germline editing is illegal in most countries.

Mum!

What?

I tell you my dreams sometimes.

It's not like that.

What's it like then?

Do you want to talk to S about it instead?

Adele!

Oh, hiya, pumpkin! Heh!

They, uh, just popped round for dinner.

Yeah, I see that.

Thanks for the invitation.

Good for you! Oh, um, Sarah...

OK, earmuffs... Um, Felix told me about your little immigration issues.

I just wanted to say I never was here, in your hideout, all holed up. (chuckle)

Not that it's a hole, it's lovely.

(laughing): It's OK.

I thought we were taking this whole new family thing slow, Fee.

Stop, please.

Don't even start...

I'm sorry, did we not agree?

Stop!

OK, OK. A word, please.

Now!

Fine.

They always do this.

There you are!

Jesus Christ!

Sorry, sorry! Listen to me...

I've got a key-card...

Great! Listen to me! There's another clone here!

What? Who?

Big blonde hair, perfect nails, Voice like a can opener.

Krystal Goderitch? Wh..?

Who is she?

Why is she at Brightborn?

Trying to have a baby? I don't know!

She doesn't even know she's a clone, dude.

She's gonna screw this all up! You have to go stop her.

Find out what she's doing and get rid of her, OK?

OK. Wait, how?

How?! Ugh!

...clean up after me.

It would be great if you could honour the fact that we need a safe house.

You agreed not to bring her here and then, you just walked her right in.

It's a safe house, Fee.

You're paranoid!

The two of you, bloody paranoid!

Kira's here and we have a right to be suspicious of Adele!

No, you don't, OK?

'Cause she's my sister. I know it in my heart.

Deal with it, Sarah.

I guess we'll find out.

What the hell's that supposed to mean?

(sighing): I sampled you both.

Scott's doing the DNA test.

You poached our DNA?

♪

Hey! Hey. Uh, can I... can I help you?

I was looking to... get a massage.

You're not supposed to be back there, that's for employees only... like myself.

OK, I'm just, like... very tight back here, so...

Just allow me to...

Like, right in there.

Uh...

Um, we have a schedule here, so... let me just...

OK, good news, I have an appointment available... right now, if you're interested?

Great, I'll take it.

OK. It's with... myself...

Ronnie.

OK.

Let's do ourselves a massage.

Ah, if you'll follow me, the room is... over... here..? There it is!

And if you wanna just take your dress off and just lie on your face, and I will... be in there.

That is not Sarah Manning. That is Cosima Neihaus.

Hm! The self-aware biology student?

What?

She's quite perceptive.

Amazing, really... the innate human drive to know the truth of ourselves.

Yes, that's amazing, Susan but have we forgotten what happened the last time a perceptive clone came poking around my side of things?

It did not end well.

I know you hate to intervene, Susan, but... Evie's right.

Yes, I suppose she's come too far.

Bring her in.

Right away.

(sirens outside)

(knocking)

Yes?

Are you decent?

Mm-hmm.

I see you've made yourself comfortable.

Someone seems a little tense.

I am.

God, you're so intuitive.

(moaning)

I'm actually in the healing arts too.

Oh, are you a doctor, or...?

No. I'm a beautician. So, basically, I help people reveal their true beauty.

Basically.

Wow, that sounds so wonderful.

The hardest people, though, are, like, pregnant women?

'Cause they're very self-centered, you know?

Oh, yeah.

Moms are like 'no toxins, please' but I'm like, 'Mommy has a mustache. Mama needs bleach.'

Do you know what I mean?

Mm-hmm.

Yeah, you know, I find this whole Brightborn thing kinda creepy...

You don't even know the half of it.

(sighing)

Can I trust you?

Of course.

Healer to healer.

My purse.

OK.

To tell you the truth, I'm on a professional investigation right now. Do you know the DYAD Institute?

I don't think so...

Well, I truly believe that, along with Brightborn, they're conducting human experiments.

Stem cells. In cosmetics.

I'm sorry, in what?

There is this woman, and she had stem cell treatment in her face, and every time she blinked, it clicked. Guess why.

I... I don't know.

Guess.

Um, she...

Because she was growing teeth out of her eyelids.

Read it.

Eyelid teeth?

Yes.

And I'm being personally targeted because I'm a whistleblower, right?

I'm like that guy who moved to Russia.

And if that French blonde doctor hadn't saved me, I would be, like, physically dead right now.

French doctor. Do you mean Dr. Cormier?

How do you know that name?

How do you know that name?!

Don't worry.

Don't worry, I'm actually here to help you, Krystal.

How do you know my name?

Uh...

(grunting)

(mumbling)

Oh my God, I'm sorry...

I'm sure you are. Come with me, please.

Let go of me.

(grunting)

Let's go.

Ow! Ow!

What are you doing? Like, where are you taking me right now?

I didn't do anything wrong. Excuse me! Do you talk?

Hello?! This isn't fair!

I didn't do... I didn't do anything! Hello!

No, OK? This isn't right.

I know you can hear me.

Fine, I stole these, OK?

I'm sorry, I'm a beauty professional, I'm interested in the trade.

Evie, that's Krystal Goderitch.

I'm sorry, who's Krystal Goderitch?

Krystal is a naive subject.

I'll speak with security, get them to track down the right leader.

She has some delusions about her circumstance, but she's harmless.

I just came here to have, like, a baby.

(baby crying)

(woman screaming) No! Let me go!

No! I can't!

I can't do it!

Well, I feel like a zit.

It's kind of weird, right, me just popping up out of the blue?

You totally don't have anything to apologize for, OK?

You're just a little, uh, unexpected.

Plus I'm a total disaster. Ever since my daddy d*ed, I've just been, like... ah!!

Like, off the rails. I'd probably think I was after Fee's money or something.

Thankfully, no problem there.

So, is it expensive, "GeneConnexion"?

Sorry?

GeneConnexion, the way you found Felix.

Chicken...

Is that quite expensive?

What?

No, no, it's cheap. Everyone's doing it.

Spit in a cup and mail it off.

I don't know that everyone's comfortable coughing up their genetic profile to a corporation.

Can you back off?

That better not be contraband food I see there.

To your room. Go on, get going.

(pop music playing)

OK, Tabitha, I'm going to need a urine sample from you...

Can I have Denelle's OR slot?

Gimme a break.

She sounded pretty far along.

Do you want to get paid?

Yeah, it's just it's my son's birthday this weekend.

I was supposed to be done by now.

Honey, you know you can't leave, you'll be disqualified from the study. Come on, let's get to the washroom.

Hello!

Hello! (laughing)

(laughing)

I think I only have three faces. (laughing)

Hey, so why GeneConnexion?

This again?

Well, there's a lot of other companies that do it.

I don't know.

Maybe the commercials?

"GeneConnexion..."

"Your Family Finders!"

Yeah. I didn't really know what it meant, though, until I saw Felix's face for the first time.

Aw. I was expecting a Republican with big hair. (laughing)

What's a Republican?

Oh, sweetheart, let's not give you nightmares.

Kira, you're finished, so come on over. Take your plate.

You can help me do dessert. Go easy.

Yeah, nothing's ever easy with you, though, is it, Sarah?

I guess not.

Are you the arsehole, or is it that thing in your face?

So, did you submit your DNA first, or did Felix?

Sarah, I'm sorry I'm such an albatross for you.

I love my new brother.

I just don't believe that.

Really.

No.

I should just go.

No, you know what?

I think you should stay.

Maybe you should go.

Felix!

What?

Come on!

What age are you?

(cell phone ringing)

Hey, Scott.

Yeah.

Oh, OK. Yeah.

Yeah, thanks. OK.

Sorry, Adele. I had you and Felix genetically tested.

I thought we already did that.

Yeah. Yeah, you did.

She's my sister, isn't she?

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, she is. Yeah.

May we be excused?

Yes, love, of course you can.

It's OK.

Right, well, guess this meal's over.

Sit down. Finish your dinner.

Welcome to the family.

sh*t, sorry.

Thank you.

(camera clicking)

We've got a carrier fully dilated. Gimme a hand.

Come on.

(moaning in pain) Oh God, I want to push.

Not yet.

Oh, please!

They promised it would be a C-section!

Too late for that now.

She's fully dilated, plus one. Can you call the OB?

Doctor's such an ass. I bet he went to get a smoothie.

Hey, I'm on the carrier ward, floor west.

With Denelle. Batch 42. We need an OB.

Let's get her onto her side.

Hey, it's OK.

It's OK, just breathe, OK?

(voices overlapping)

We apologize greatly...

You're gonna hear from my lawyer about this.

Sure, and you are more than welcome to...

(screaming)

Do you employ him here?

Miss Williams, stay calm.

That face?

I have seen that face before.

Things are OK.

(sobbing) I thought it was Braxton Hicks.

The contractions were mild and regular.

Not anymore.

She's fully dilated, plus two. Slide down the bed for me, Denelle.

My mom said this was wrong.

Grab her legs.

(moaning)

There's meconium. Call the recess team.

Yeah, I need a recess team for a mec delivery. Floor east.

Oh, God! Oh God, forgive me!

The head's coming.

God forgive me.

One more big push.

That's it.

One more. Last push!

(screaming)

He's out...

(indistinct)

(crying)

sh*t.

Positive for B.P. syndrome, orofacial clefts, ectodermal anomalies, severe popliteal webbing.

Cosima? Remember me?

Susan.

Duncan...

Perhaps we should discuss why you're really here.

I finally meet my maker and this is what you're doing?

You're allowing emotions to cloud your judgment.

Think like a scientist.

Brightborn has identified genes that eliminate dozens of childhood illnesses.

These are human beings that you're tinkering with.

Trial and error without consent.

These carriers are very well compensated.

And does that justify the baby that I saw?

Evie, give us the room.

I'm sorry. It is a passionate subject for all of us.

How can you even support this?

You don't even know the long-term effects of it.

Look at me, I'm sick.

I never gave permission for any of this.

No one gives permission to be born. I created you as a beautiful baseline, to unlock the mysteries of the human genome.

We're your Oncomice.

And you've seen the alternative. The carriers, the device in Sarah... these are brutish techniques compared to Leda.

We're not giving you Kendall so you can make more lab rats.

Cosima, you're dying.

And you know that you don't have the resources to save yourself.

But share the Original's genome, and together we can make a cure, for all of you.

Sorry I ruined dinner.

We still had a really fun day.

Mommy...

Your sisters...

I know how they feel sometimes.

How do you mean?

Like...

Cosima, when she's sad.

Helena, when she's lonely.

Rachel's the angriest.

There's even some I don't know.

I'm sorry, monkey, I didn't understand.

Those aren't dreams.

So... what are they?

I don't know, monkey.

I wish I did.

I feel you too, Mommy.

It's up to them now.

Were you able to reason with her?

We are as close to the Original as we have ever been.

To a cure.

Yes, my love.
