Contains spoilers and speculations for 'Orphan Black: Echoes'
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: In the captivating sci-fi thriller 'Orphan Black: Echoes,' Dr Kira Manning (Keeley Hawes) was left perplexed by the betrayal of a close ally.
Based on the popular Canadian television series 'Orphan Black,' the AMC series follows Lucy (Krysten Ritter), a determined woman on a quest to uncover the truth about her origins.
During her investigation, she discovers the shocking truth that she is a clone of Kira's wife, Dr. Eleanor Miller (Rya Kihlstedt), who died from Alzheimer's disease.
In another unexpected turn of events, Kira realizes that Lucy is not the only clone of her dead wife, but that another young version, Jules Lee (Amanda Fix), also exists. This discovery compels Kira to team up with Lucy to uncover the complete truth.
Who deceived Dr. Kira Manning in 'Orphan Black: Echoes' Episode 7?
In the recent episode, Kira struggled to understand Paul Darros's (James Hiroyuki Liao) true objectives and decided to investigate more by examining Dr Josh Tartakovich's (Izad Etemadi) laptop.
Kira discovers several brief video clips that ultimately reveal a calendar marking Wednesday, the 9th, as the day of the launch.
Kira is taken aback upon seeing the date and contacts Emily (Tattiawna Jones), urgently requesting her help.
However, the conversation takes a dramatic turn when Emily, who initially appears to be a supportive ally, reveals a more sinister side. She demands that Kira disclose all her information and, to Kira's shock, draws a gun.
Is Emily working for Paul Darros in 'Orphan Black: Echoes'?
If you've been following the show from the start, you might find it hard to believe that Emily could be a traitor. She has consistently presented herself as disinterested in the cloning intrigues, which earned Kira's trust.
After uncovering discrepancies with Josh, Kira reached out to Emily first, highlighting just how much she trusted her.
However, Emily's action of pulling out a gun suggests she might be collaborating with Darros or pursuing a hidden agenda tied to her past.
It is conceivable that she had a significant role in previous cloning procedures, with her understanding and actions perhaps being influenced by Darros to retain authority over the situation.
Emily may have potentially gained Kira's trust to gain confidence and then used crucial times to extract or manipulate information, indicating a strategic alliance with Darros.
With only three episodes remaining, the true motive behind Emily's deception will be unveiled, and it may turn out to be something completely unexpected.
