It's not, as somebody brought it up, like what Hearn did to Sierra while in the Dollhouse--which was rightly punished (albeit in an unexpected yet totally awesome way). The fact that she basically...ah..."retires" (for lack of a better word) the particular engagement points towards her acceptance that she can't continue living in that fantasy, no matter how much it helps her cope with the stresses of her job--specifically, the secrecy part.<br /><br />Also, when she mentioned her old job, did anyone else think of Terrance Zdunich/Darren Bousman/Darren Smith's "Repo! The Genetic Opera"? XD I couldn't resist giggling. I can’t fault Adelle for turning out to be the real Ms. Lonely Hearts, because I would probably have done the same thing.

I think Olivia is amazing, the best actress of the series, and plays a very dificult and complex character. She has to be very tough and cold, but seem very lonely and sad, she also was unbelievably funny in ep 7...now she showed an emotive side of her characther that added more levels of depth to Adelle...I also love the way she pronounces the words...

I am a fan of Jane Austen, and Olivia Williams plays her exactly as I imagine Miss Austen must have been - intelligent, witty, independent, and yet not a man-hater, recluse, or spinster. She is a superb actress, and it has been fun watching her in Dollhouse. Miss Austen Regrets.

I had spent weeks trying to snuff out the spy. Finally narrowed it down to Dominic and the lab assistant(because of her thankless go-for job) and I was right. Loved this episode! He deserves to be put in the attic! I knew it was him! I had spent weeks trying to snuff out the spy.

I got that warm fuzzy feeling allready in the intro, and the episode really lived upp to my severely raised expectations. Joss, if you read this, this is why we worship the ground you walk on.<br /><br />And yeas, I have been wondering if any of the "non-dolls" in the dollhouse are actually dolls... I mean, next time we see Dominic, he will be one..... Yeah, definately best emisode so far.

That was amazing.<br /><br />Boyd reminds me of Giles. Will the new handler be like Wesley when he first came to Buffy? I think it's too hard for Boyd to just let Echo go and the way she was looking at him instead of her handler when they imprinted her?? <br /><br />I don't think Adelle is a hypocrite, but she must not be comfortable with her use of a doll because a) she hides it and b) she talks about the "old lady" using Victor in such a disdainful way. I think she sees it as unprofessional to sleep with Dolls, even as actives on a mission and she's embarrassed that she needs Victor. She is very much like Lila.<br /><br />Also, could Dominic being "in the attic" be something like a Faith in a coma situation? The contents of his brain are neatly packed inside a medal box and I don't think that's going away anytime soon.<br /><br />I love Dollhouse, would Fox give us another season if we asked really nicely?

But I don't think she can be, because she was affected by the drug a few weeks ago like the other non-dolls, rather than like a doll. <br /><br />I was actually uncomfortable at first with her using Victor in an personal engagement just because all of the sexual engagements that the actives do kind of give me theheeby jeebies. But I think in the end it does make it more interesting show and her a stronger character. We already have Boyd and Dr. Saunders questioning the morality of the dollhouse, but Adelle doesn't. she kind of reminds me of Lila from Angel... and I have a lot of the same questions about her.<br /><br />-erin I wondered about Adelle being a doll as well with that line that she had near the end.

It's UNBELIEVABLE!! I don't understand how they can cancel something that is easily becoming the best show on television. I was going to put more adjectives in front of show in that last sentence but there are just way too many to describe this show. <br /><br />If you go to hulu and just watch the ads during Dollhouse over and over again, do you think that would help to keep the show on? Or is that just a really dumb question?
