LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Set against the backdrop of cutting-edge technology and scientific breakthroughs, AMC's 'Orphan Black: Echoes Episode' is capturing attention with its narrative.

Drawing inspiration from the smash hit Canadian series 'Orphan Black', this thrilling science-based show delves into the gripping tale of Lucy (Krysten Ritter), a woman who sets out on a quest to unravel the mysteries surrounding her own identity.

During her quest, she comes across her younger self, Jules Lee (Amanda Fix), and attempts to explain to the young girl that she is a clone.

However, Jules dismisses her claims but in the latest episode, there is a dramatic twist when Jules discovers that she may actually be a clone.

In Episode 3 of the show, we get a deeper look into the intriguing bond between Lucy and Jules.

The young girl pays Lucy a visit after stumbling upon the revelation that her diary was penned by an author who confesses to being the one behind the diary.

Baffled by the newfound discovery, Jules meets Lucy, who then discusses their shared nightmares.

Lucy shares that she usually sees herself in a bathroom, with blood on the floor and when she looks in the mirror, she sees Jules' face.

Lucy admits she does not remember if she did something awful to cause those dreams, and both confess that it is the only memory they have.

To investigate further, Jules suggests a drug called 'Dream Trip' that she can make by herself and if they try to do it together, there is a possibility that they could see something new. She then leaves for her home to get it.

The finding that Lucy and Jules have the same dreams, in which Lucy sees Jules' face in the mirror, indicates a deeper connection between them than they realize.

This link may indicate that they share repressed or distorted memories or experiences. Jules and Lucy may discover new memories or insights about their pasts when they take the 'Dream Trip' drug together.

These disclosures might lead them to unearth secret realities about the experiments that produced them, the people in charge of manipulating them, and the greater conspiracy in which they are involved.

It could be possible that Lucy and Jules are the clone version of Dr Kira Manning (Keeley Hawes) the director of Additive Foundation as hinted in the episode where she addressed Lucy as herself.

Kira must have committed a crime in the past that is haunting the two as a shared nightmare.

As both Lucy and Jules dive further into the secrets of their lives, they may encounter unexpected friends and opponents, complicating their quest for freedom and self-discovery.
