#1 beth childs stan

when beth was looking for clones in the police systems, she found sarah there. but when she tried to track her down, she couldn’t find her (because she was MIA doing fuck knows what). but beth obvi saw mrs. s’ address and then quickly discovered that SARAH HAD A CHILD. omg wow. beth knew about kira. beth chose to not bring sarah into clone club for fear of dyad or the assassin finding kira through them. BETH PROTECTOR OF ALL, SAVIOUR OF ALL.

The most trippy thing about “Orphan Black” is that you keep forgetting Tatiana Maslany is playing all of these characters then *boom* it hits.

Just FYI Beth hadn’t taught Alison to shoot yet, meaning Beth was spiraling downwards and still took the time to make sure Alison knew how to shoot. Beth had just shot a civilian and was probably a little gun shy, yet she taught Alison to shoot. Maybe she knew what she was going to do, and she wanted to leave Alison prepared, maybe she just wanted to spend time with Alison. Either way, Beth took time out of her life, which was falling apart, and made sure Alison was safe.

Head Canon: Paul was always trying to get Beth to do couple’s pottery with him, but she didn’t like it so she sent Alison in her place once. 

Shipping characters on Orphan Black can be quite a challenge given that there is a 50% chance they are related somehow and a 90% chance they are both Tatiana Maslany.

Beth knew that Helena was after her so she faked her death and moved to the US to join the CIA’s investigation of the DYAD institute. Now she sends Ali little mementos like headbands, new craft scissors, and Sarah Stubbs, who is a trained CIA operative in charge of keeping Alison safe.

the fact that alison was providing beth with pills and helping her cover with her drug tests at work really puts how hard she took beth’s death into perspective.  we always assumed it was loss or a feeling of abandonment that caused her to react so strongly to finding out that beth was dead. but in the end? she felt guilty, too. for helping her pretend that everything was fine, for helping her hide the truth from the people that might have been able to change things, and - ultimately - for not doing more when she knew that something was wrong.

cosima: smokes pot alison: sells pot beth: in a pot

No but I just checked out imdb and the actress who plays Beth will be in all of the third season so either we will be getting some serious flashbacks or Beth is still alive
