Dollhouse has faced many challenges when it came to delivery. Not many series carry this type of burden when it comes to telling a story. This episode was much better than I'd anticipated. Last week when Echo went running off with Alpha, I believed maybe Echo and Alpha formed some kind of pact together and they had some kind of heated romance thing going on. The fact that Alpha planted Echo with a personality he favored for her was a different twist.
Alpha, played by Alan Tudyk, caught me off guard last week, I wouldn't have guessed that such a douche would be Alpha, but he proved to be more than crazy could handle.
It's funny when you think about it, even though he killed Caroline, he really didn't, she could easily be implanted into someone else.
Madeline seemed more like Millie there. Do you think she remembered a fragment of Paul, or was it just natural attraction. Paul also had guts, asking Mellie or November, for her imprinted name. What was he trying to accomplish? To see if she still remembered him maybe?
Paul Ballard fit in pretty well in the Dollhouse. He fought so hard to get the Dollhouse only to stay...? Maybe he liked the scenery. Did he buy Echo eh em... Caroline's freedom, what about Mellie? What about the rest of the dolls?
The Echo/Alpha twist was interesting, compliments to Alan Tudyk for his portrayal of Alpha as he seemed to have misunderstood Echo deeply. For someone who was smart enough to get to Paul Ballard, imprint dolls to give Paul a message, infiltrate the Dollhouse and leave without a chase, he seemed very dull when it came to the endgame, maybe that's love for you plays with your head. i had to point this out, what did think about Echo and Alpha have multiple brains, would your head explode if it's anything like a computer? And to only graze Echo with a shoulder bullet on his getaway? Maybe in his twisted mental, he still couldn't hurt her, much...
Finally a new revelation Dr. Claire Saunders played by Amy Acker is a doll! That was unexpected.
It leaves you wondering, who else could be a doll. Topher you think, Adelle? Maybe the entire place is run by dolls? That is something to leave you guessing.
I admired the flashback scenes among Alpha/Echo and Dr. Saunders (Whiskey).
I laughed when Alpha immediately sprung one on Echo, Love at first sight. At least we all found out how Alpha scared the Dr.'s face.
Dollhouse shows true promise on each weekly installments. Past episodes have left me wondering 'Where are they taking this show'? and others including this installment reminds me why I like to watch Dollhouse. With more episodes like this maybe the rumors of the shows cancellation might be just a memory. I am looking forward for more answers to this shows problematic equations.
This Week's Role Uproar Dr. Claire Saunders played by Amy Acker !!! For Hacking her doll file, only to not open it.
She found out she was a doll and dealt with it, that's enough!
