[Spoiler Alert!]
Episode 9 of the BBC series "Orphan Black" finally revealed who leaked the late Prof. Duncan's book to Castor, and it turned out to be Gracie Johanssen (Zoe de Grand Maison). In the said episode, Gracie bid goodbye to Helena (Tatiana Maslany) and Alison and said that she'll be heading off to her doctor's appointment, though in reality she was meeting Mark (Ari Millen), her husband, which was what she bargained for when she gave the book to Castor. Gracie calls Cosima before meeting Mark and apologizes for what she did and explains that she only wants to be with Mark because she loves him.
In London, meanwhile, Sarah and Siobhan (Maria Doyle Kennedy) finally track the Castor original, who, in a very unexpected twist, turns out to be Siobhan's own mother, Kendall Malone (Alison Steadman). She apparently absorbed her male twin when she was in the womb and therefore has two cell lines inside her body. This makes her the Castor original that everyone is looking for as well as the Leda original that could save Cosima and her sisters. At the end of the episode, Siobhan is left to decide on whether she'll let her own mother live or die, given the new discovery and current circumstances.
In other news, as reported by Huffington Post, it turns out that there's a real-life Cosima named Cosima Herter, who was the inspiration for the Science geek clone Cosima Niehaus. During the ATX Television Festival in Texas, the real-life Cosima was quoted as saying by the show's creator Graeme Manson that "Orphan Black" is a "feminist bomb" because of its ability to cover a "massive spectrum of feminist themes." According to Manson, the real-life Cosima is just like the one in the show: "She got all hand-wave-y, and, like, 'Oh my god! That's so cool.'"
Meanwhile, The Movie Network reports that "Orphan Black" was recently hit with a copyright lawsuit by a certain Stephen Hendricks, who claims that he pitched a script titled "Double Double" to Fortier and Temple Street (the studio behind the show) about clones and their search for their origins, which is similar to the storyline of the TV series. Hendricks is reportedly asking for $5 million in damages. The studio is yet to issue a comment regarding the lawsuit.
"Orphan Black" Season 3 is only one episode away from the finale. According to the same website, the BBC show has already been renewed for Season 4. "Orphan Black" airs every Saturday night at 9 p.m.
