Things between the twins is getting more intense, more tension, more drugs, more selfish, more savage, Elliot just cant stand Beverly having someone she cant and on top takes her away. Elliot is having a very hard time at accepting Beverly could be on a serious relationship, at least for now and this bring her to the border of madness, Beverly on the other hand doesn’t know how to feel now that she has everything, has the lab, the birthing center, has a girlfriend but cant handle been famous and successful, there are fields where you will attract a lot of haters when becoming successful at what you do and Beverly cant handle it but this haters are not far from the truth, now with all the resources she needed Elliot is going full throttle at artificially creating humans, its clone wars all over, Elliot without any type of supervision is working out side of the law, testing and trying all methods she can or want, worst part is that humans tend to do desperate things when there is no other option, failing at procreating is one of them, failing at it for any reason over and over let women and men to take desperate actions to achieve this goal and there are people like Elliot who take advantage of this situation using them for their experiments. Creating humans artificially by some is consider playing at been God, since there is no secret formula for to achieve this or a button that you can press and give life then on the way to achieve this there are all kind of failures, this failures most of the times are consider murder since we talking about a baby, that’s the sad part when this process go bad and takes part of our humanity, until today humans have not approve of find an argument that let humans been produce at a factory because as in any factory there is a margin of error, on a humans factory that margin of error becomes life’s that are lost, in a sense killing other humans.
The series has jump in time and the Matel’s birthing center and lab are ready to go, they starting to have their first patience and this place doesn’t look cheap or accessible to others at all just as Rebecca told Beverly, she took this decision as an investment not necessarily to change the world. I like how the production have develop the look of futuristic at the same time bizarre looking, just look at the building looks a bit futuristic like in 90s movies and the dressing on this crew, it give me some flash backs of Hunger Games, same goes for the rest of the personal including the twins they all dressing red uniforms, very low lights, the birthing room is basically a cinema with chairs and a big showcase for those invited to see the process. The birthing center is getting lots of guest as they call them, Beverly insisted because they are not sick and that’s true, traditionally calling them patients might put them in the category of been sick but its just a term misunderstood.
This TV series is more about this trio, the birthing center is just the narrative based on their goals and carrier but its about the toxic relationship that the twins have, a toxic relationship that they accept and promote at times for example when Beverly use Elliot as her escape goat when she is not ok at a certain event or handling someone she is not comfortable with, Genevieve had this party after the TV show she work at finish filming and Beverly asks Elliot to be her because she is more fun and loose at this events, but Genevieve catch it and was able to differentiate between the twins, she only ask them to stop it for this time but then Beverly is not willing to share Genevieve with Elliot but aloud Elliot to be her under other circumstances, this is the case where you cant be with God and the Devil at the same time pretending everything will be ok after. At some point Elliot will pretend to be Beverly without letting her know about it and sleep with Genevieve.
Elliot cant stand be without Beverly and Genevieve is getting on their way, soon she will have the need to get rid of Genevieve, Elliot is so possessive but also only because Beverly aloud it, in this occasion Beverly and Genevieve go out for the weekend.
Feeling the need to some how control Beverly, Elliot takes Tom one of the guys at the Lab, basically her right hand and have him jerk off to get his sperms I think some how the act of fertilizing Beverly ovum gives her power over Beverly? she told Elliot she didn’t want to have a baby anymore before this or is she doing it to get Beverly back on having a baby so she can have her attention again? I’m sure is not for the tech since Elliot now has tons of patients who want her to test on them.
After Beverly and Genevieve went out for the weekend Elliot didn’t know what to do with herself, nothing could calm her down, not the lab, not the drugs, not the alcohol, she go out and took a bunch of people from a bar to have a party at her place, the amount of cocaine she was taking in was absurd to the point she start having hallucinations with a neighbor that she hates, they had a fight braking stuff at Elliot’s place and then end up talking in the balcony while Elliot patch her up but then things became twisted, Elliot neighbor who she nick name Skinny start telling her how little she is, how she have to split her life with Beverly but in a bad way like Beverly takes everything from Elliot and that makes her mad, sick to the point she push Skinny off the balcony, realize what she have done but when she goes downstairs into the garbage where Skinny fall there was nothing, no body, then she realize whats going on on her way up to the apartment, Elliot is loosing it, she cant be away from Beverly and certainly not with someone else, Elliot calls Beverly to come back asking for help.
I really liked this episode, the first part was ok with all the lab stuff, what they doing and the classic fight between Rebecca and Beverly but the really interesting part was when Genevieve takes Beverly how Elliot start to loose it and the end when Elliot, Two Face and Skinny start going at each other making a mess braking stuff and then having a chat but its all result of Elliot imagination, all the drugs and alcohol she did, Elliot couldn’t take the insults and how little Skinny make her feel and now we know Elliot is capable of killing someone for Beverly, she might kill Genevieve at least is on the table to keep Beverly with her, different than SWARM this tv series is creepy and could make you sick but that’s just the lab part, the interesting drama is between the twins.
