An Orphan Black character returns — with a catch — on the new spinoff.
Orphan Black: Echoes made its series premiere on Sunday, ushering in a new chapter of the beloved sci-fi franchise. The series, which is set multiple decades in the future, has billed itself as relatively standalone from the original Orphan Black, outside of the occasional Easter egg or reference. The final moments of Echoes' series premiere added an interesting complication to that, revealing that one major character has a larger connection to the original series than we thought.
The majority of the episode centers around Lucy , who discovers that she has been"printed" in a lab by an unnamed scientist . Lucy, having no indication of why she was created, settles into civilian life for several years, only to be attached by mysterious agents seemingly tied to the printing program. The scientist, meanwhile, does not agree with the efforts being taken to track down Lucy, and worries that the situation is going to get worse.
Who Is Kira Manning?Portrayed by Skyler Wexler on Orphan Black, Kira is the young daughter of Sarah Manning , whose journey of discovering that she is a clone of Project Leda fuels much of the series. Initially, Kira grows up under the care of Sarah's foster mom, Siobhan Sadler , when Sarah is deemed unfit to raise her.
