top 5 cosima scenes
of SEASON ONE

Cosima: Don't worry, you get used to it.
Sarah: To clones? Yeah, I'm not buying that.
Cosima: How many of us do you have to meet, Sarah?

Cosima: But who is the original? Who's created us? Who's killing us? We need to know, but, we lost
our cop, so, however you manage to get into her shoes, we really need you to stay there.
Sarah: Stay a cop to help you?
Cosima: To help us ... Look, we are your biological imperative now, okay?

Sarah: Just answer me one thing.
Cosima: Anything, yes.
Sarah: If we're genetically identical, do you get that little patch of dry skin between your eyebrows?
Cosima: [laughs] That's good. Try to keep your sense of humor. Beth couldn't.

Cosima: Yeah, blood looks fine. No infection.
Scott: What kind of symptoms are we talking about?
Cosima: Um ... shortness of breath, coughing up blood ... That sort of thing.
Scott: Who's the subject?
Cosima: Uh, subjects, and if I told you that, I'd have to kill you.

Cosima: And, um, can you sequence for Cytochrome C?
Scott: The barcode gene? That's the one we use for species differentiation.
Cosima: Is it?
Scott: What's in it for me?
Cosima: Um, how about you get to have sex ... with yourself.

Cosima: Well, I may have a monitor dilemma of my own. I'm new here this semester. I didn't bring
anybody with me, but someone wants to ... be friends.
Sarah: Just stay away from them, Cos. Stick to the science, yeah?
Cosima: "Stick to the science"? What am I, the geek monkey, now?

Sarah: If somebody's trying to get close to you, just stay away.
Cosima: Right, the old "do as I say, not as I do."

Sarah: Beth's partner found the German -- or at least part of her.
Cosima: Part of her?
Sarah: Yeah, I messed up when I buried her. They have a fingerprint, Cosima.
Cosima: Oh, wait, are you being Beth right now?
Sarah: Pretending to be a bloody cop, so I need to know if the bloody fingerprints will flag a bloody match!
Cosima: Whoa! Okay, okay, don't freak out! They'd need to use Interpol to find the German, which is
unlikely, but if one of us had a criminal record here ... do you have a criminal record?
Sarah: Just petty fraud, assault, whatever. Wasted youth, all right? If the body matches me, the cops will
see a mugshot of somebody who looks like Beth, only it's yours truly, and I'm already supposed to be dead.
Cosima: Wow. Wow, welcome to the trip, man.
Sarah: That is not helpful.
Cosima: Yeah, okay, sorry. Just don't bolt, okay?

Cosima: Sarah, I so should've listened to you about Delphine. I --
Sarah: You're all right.

Sarah: A career at the Dyad Institute.
Cosima: Yeah, studying us.
Alison: What are you going to do, Cosima?
Cosima: Well, we have to know our own biology. That's what this is all about, right? Maybe I can
help us best from the inside.

"That's oddly romantic. Totally encouraging."
"Yeah. Ditto. Obvs."
"Got anything else we need to be paranoid about?"

It's been great to see others acknowledge the relationship as well. Mrs S asked about Delphine, Scott is all but a shipper by this point, and now Felix in his way.

That's been SO great!

And also Sarah saying they're gonna find her, I really wanna see that!

This is SO painful to look at

Less Than Perfect · 05-30-2016, 02:53 AM

Thanks for the new thread!

Scott.

Scully_fan · 05-30-2016, 03:33 PM

Tftnt!

I feel bad for Scott and I feel bad for Cosima. She's grieving, so it's no surprise to me that she's lashing out. It's a painful scene all round.

Aurora Cormier · 05-30-2016, 09:16 PM

I felt a lot more sorry for her

Exactly.

Scott was being pretty nice about it whilst still letting Cosima know that he was hurt by her words.

Aurora Cormier · 06-01-2016, 08:41 PM

I wonder what Cosima will be doing this episode, now that she knows Delphine might be alive

Less Than Perfect · 06-02-2016, 03:54 AM

I hope doing everything she can to find out more information!

Scully_fan · 06-02-2016, 07:10 AM

She needs all of Krystal's info first as surely Krystal could describe not only the shooter but also who took her? So I'd be happy if Cosima tracked Krystal down.

Aurora Cormier · 06-02-2016, 12:51 PM

^ I'd love that too!

Cosima, crying over Delphine

I would love to see that!

It was good to see Cosima really excited about something for once. She looked really hopeful this episode.

Scully_fan · 06-05-2016, 04:46 PM

^She did look hopeful. And she got a helicopter ride! The days of her being trapped in a lab seeing no fresh air for a season seem so long ago now.

Aurora Cormier · 06-05-2016, 09:14 PM

I LOVED her talking to MK, I hope we see that more often

It's probably the first time all season she's look that upbeat!

It's freedom!

Aurora Cormier · 06-07-2016, 08:08 PM

It was, wasn't it? It's been such a painful season for her

And season 3 wasn't much better so, she's been sad for quite some time now, if you think about it
