Our current theory is that Cipher is a clone of Godolkin, given he looks exactly like Godolkin in the first flashback, and Mr Crispy is actually Godolkin, who is puppeting the clone. (We actually came up with that theory before Cipher puppeted Jordan, but that was a nice boost to that theory.) This explains why Cate can’t read his mind – the clone doesn’t have one – and also why he doesn’t have any V in his body – it’s a clone, not an actual supe. Also explains why Cipher was so tense when Cate said she knew his secret – she’d been close to his actual body, so might have read his mind then – before relaxing when she said he was a human and didn’t have powers.

Given Odessa was about finding Nazis a new home, might that be his plan with Marie – might he be able to relocate to her body permanently from his crispy body? If so, it puts a whole new slant on him developing Marie’s powers as far as they’ll go? Or maybe she’ll be able to help him transfer to a new body another way?
