| British punk con artist Sarah Manning sees an identical woman, Beth Childs, kill herself by jumping in front of a train. Sarah retrieves Beth's bag, and finding that she is well off, decides to take her place and clean out Beth's bank account so she (Sarah) can collect her daughter Kira from her foster mother, Siobhan Sadler, whom Sarah calls Mrs. S. Sarah asks her foster brother Felix Dawkins to identify Beth's body as Sarah's to buy time for her scheme, and throw her drug-dealer boyfriend Victor Schmidt off her trail. Sarah withdraws $75,000 from Beth's account, but discovers to her dismay that Beth is a police detective suspended for shooting Maggie Chen. Beth's partner Arthur Bell ("Art") follows "Beth," and breaks into her car, taking the $75,000. Sarah is approached by Katja Obinger, another lookalike from Germany. Katja is killed by a sniper, but Sarah manages to escape. | |||||||

| Sarah is contacted by a woman who instructs her to dispose of Katja's body and retrieve her briefcase. Art tells Sarah that he has the $75,000, and won't return it until she testifies at the inquest into Maggie Chen's shooting and clears her name. It seems that Art placed a cellphone in the hand of the dead Maggie Chen to make it look like Beth had shot Maggie in self-defence, and he doesn't want this to get out. Sarah poses as Katja to get her briefcase from the hotel. Inside the briefcase, she finds evidence of more lookalikes, one of whom is Alison Hendrix, a soccer mom. Sarah gets Alison to set up a meeting where she meets yet another lookalike, evolutionary developmental biology student Cosima Niehaus, the woman she spoke with on the phone. | |||||||

| Alison tells Sarah that they are clones. In the briefcase, Sarah and Felix find that three of the clones Katja had found were already dead. Sarah goes to the police station to ask Art for the money back, only to be reinstated as a police detective and drafted to cover Katja's murder. Worried that her fingerprints might be identical to Katja's, she deletes them from the record. Art and Sarah track down the killer, who starts shooting at them. Sarah saves Art's life, and then gives chase, only to find that the killer is another clone, Helena, a Ukrainian. Sarah stabs Helena, but Helena escapes. Art returns the money to Sarah, who gives it back to Alison, who had provided it to Beth to help with her investigation into their situation. | |||||||

| Sarah and Art continue looking for the killer, while Sarah tries to cover up that both killer and victim are her sister clones. The police believe that the killer is a fundamentalist Christian, while Cosima deduces that the group affiliated with Helena believes the clones are abominations and must be killed. Helena keeps a close eye on Sarah and the case, putting Sarah's cover in jeopardy. Mrs. S allows her to visit Kira, but because Sarah is busy working the case, Felix asks Alison to impersonate Sarah, otherwise Mrs. S would never allow her to see Kira again. However, Alison is shocked to find that Kira knows she is not Sarah. Helena lures Sarah to Maggie Chen's apartment, where it is revealed that Maggie worked for the same group Helena works for; Beth actually killed Maggie to protect the clones. Sarah allows Helena to escape before Art arrives, and Sarah quits the police force. Helena collapses and gets picked up by a man wearing the same symbol as Helena and Maggie. | |||||||
