Yep this is how I feel. Not that Ju is wrong I just don't see it her way, but that's ok.

Speaking of pregnancy:

It is still so weird that Helena is pregnant. And the kids are biologically Henrik Johanssen's aren't they? *shudders*

This is totally it.

Gross question, but how many kids does that guy have? I'm inclined to think all the children on the Prolethean farm were his....

You mean Leekie's murder? Did Art know about that?

I meant to reply to this but I was talking about Pouchy and his crew. Art knows Donnie was 100% involved with it because Duko told him as much in S4. But that has probably been forgotten about like how Angie just seemed to drop everything and stop pursuing the Hendrix's. I kinda miss Angie.

[Aurora Cormier]

I liked Angie in season 1. She was so useless in season 2 that I just couldn't wait for her to disappear and was so glad when she did.

And the kids are biologically Henrik Johanssen's aren't they? *shudders*

Why would you even remind us of that

[Less Than Perfect]

Angie was great. Too bad they couldn't find a good way for her to stay in the show.

Sorry for the reminder. But yes, I think so too sadly. And like Gracie was even carrying one of his kids.

even now i'd still rather have angie than donnie or any castor clones, tbh.

[Simon Spier]

Of course the awesome recurring stars are tossed away for random drama that for some reason they think will bring ratings.

[majesdane]

of course. that's always how it is.

[Scully_fan]

The Bios are out for S5.

I'm quite shocked that Delphine is listed before 2 of the clones and Felix and Mrs S. It probably doesn't mean anything but usually they do it in order of character importance/leads.

[Aurora Cormier]

^ I saw those on EBro Ruined My Life with a spoiler warning, and then the sinopsis were like:

"Sarah is deeply wounded and struggling to stay alive"

"(...) Delphine can’t give her all the answers she needs"

"Rachel is now firmly in charge"

And I was like okay, but where are the SPOILERS you warned me about???

[Scully_fan]

Yeah I've just seen those ep synopsis's and there are some spoilers in them to be fair.

The first 3 episode titles are kind of ordinary for Oprhan Black though.

The Few Who Dare
Clutch of Greed
Beneath Her Heart

Should I be disappointed in the titles? idk but I am.

I'm also guessing in terms of centric:
The Few Who Dare - Everyone
Clutch of Greed - Rachel maybe?
Beneath Her Heart - Alison

[Aurora Cormier]

I actually don't care much about titles, in any show. I always refer to them by number, anyway

[Scully_fan]

I find the OB titles either, really interesting, or oddly beautiful, and they are always well thought out. Always unique from other shows too.

Anyway I take back what I said. I googled all three titles thinking it was something science-y again like the norm and it's not. All three are from one poem titled "Protest" by Ella Wheeler Wilcox.

Spoiler:

To sit in silence when we should protest
Makes cowards of men. The human race
Has climbed on protest. Had no voice been raised
Against injustice, ignorance, and lust,
The Inquisition yet would serve the law
And guillotines decide our least disputes.
The few who dare must speak and speak again,
To right the wrongs of many. Speak! Thank God,
No vested power in this great day and land
Can gag or throttle; press and voice may cry
Loud disapproval of existing ills,
May criticise oppression, and condemn
The lawlessness of wealth-protecting laws
That let the children and child bearers toil
To purchase ease for idle millionaires.
Therefore I do protest against the boast
Of independence in this mighty land.
Call no chain strong which holds one rusted link;
Call no land free that holds one fettered slave;
Until the manacled, slim wrists of babes
Are loosed to toss in childish sport and glee;
Until the Mother bears no burden save
The precious one beneath her heart; until
God's soil is rescued from the clutch of greed
And given back to Labor; let no man
Call this the land of Freedom.

So yep all the titles are coming from this.
