tv thoughts: Dollhouse - Gray Hour
So, we just watched 'Gray Hour'
Just double checking, but the boss lady was totally bullshitting that guy when she said no one knew what he was doing with the Active he ordered? Because how would Topher know how to program Echo if he didn't know what she was up to?
Oh, it just dawned on me...does that mean the guy who was in the office was hired by Alpha???? The guy kept insisting it wasn't for him, and Alpha needed Echo to be out on a mission for his plan to work....hm.
I really liked the moment between the shot!guy and Echo when they talked about art. When she touched her face after he said she was broken...nice scene.
UGH Why can I not remember anyone's name on this show? I only remember Topher this week because he was yelled at so much when Echo got wiped! Anyway, I like that the boss lady already know that Echo's Watcher/Handler has pulled a Giles and gotten to close.
There's no way it actually wiped everything from her brain, right? I feel like we need to start seeing more of the wipe not taking SOON.
I was worried Echo was going to say "I'm Taffy" when the Other Taffy called her on the phone, which would have been awkward.
My Dollhouse Theory: Season 1 will continue like this, but it will end with Echo leaving the Dollhouse. Either Helo will "rescue" her after a wipe, or her Handler will extract her (he's already shown signs of not believing she is there "for a reason"), or Alpha will convince her she's being abused some how (he clearly is focused just on her). Either way, I don't think the show can go on like this for more than a season. She needs to get out and season 2 can be about her trying to rescue the other Dolls. My other theory is that really-pointy-chick will be programmed to be her nemesis and they will be trying to fight each other - pointy-chick getting Topher's programming, maybe Echo getting Alpha's programming...or something.
Just tossing those out there. Still staying spoiler free for the identity of Alpha.
