I am the fly who dreams of the spider

you shouldn't fence without a damn mask. Jesus.

I was looking at their exposed shoulders and sexy arms thinking, "there's arteries there".

I couldn't put the Mellie reveal into place with what we found out about Dominic.

I didn't base my judgment on that, but on what Dom was saying to Adelle. He doesn't want the Dollhouse shut down, but he wants it controlled and restricted. And he pointed out that if it wasn't for him, Ballard would be that much more closer to bringing down the Dollhouse. That doesn't fit with "I command you with this doll to find out the Dollhouses purpose, oh crazy person obsessed with bringing it down".

I really find it fascinating that as much as Dominic has tried to kill Echo and send her to the attic, she is the first person he thinks of when speaking of who has been harmed by the Dollhouse. It's a weird dichotomy of him knowing Caroline has been wronged and killed and hating/taunting the body that houses the doll that is Echo. Between knowing what was done to Caroline was wrong, and having no feelings for Echo. Dominic drew a line, and Echo and her imprints are not people deserving of a jot of sympathy or compassion, and Caroline is to be mourned.

Puts a new light on his drug induced apology about trying to kill her, as well as his trying to kill her in defense of the dollhouse.

Really, i didn't think he cared about her that much. Was just obligated to her because he pulled her into this shit. Now he's kinda stuck.

Regardless of whether or not he was falling in love with her, he trusted her. He thought she was kind, sweet, and REAL. I think all of this is going to make him much more paranoid in the future and probably make him sound even crazier to people.

Also, are we getting cancellation? Felicia Day seemed to think that was the case. On a seperate note... I heart her.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.

she told Paul that their sleeper active performed perfectly after Mellie killed rapist!handler.

Do you mean Dominic? I had forgotten that.

true, but why would she be trying to bring down the Dollhouse?

I can't quite articulate my thoughts on this just yet. Too jumbled.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

true, but why would she be trying to bring down the Dollhouse?

Well, there was the thing she told Roger!Victor, about a previous job growing organs from stem cells, and how she could tell people about that job, etc. She's as trapped in the Dollhouse as the Actives are. Possibly more so, because she can't leave after 5 years. She knows too much to be allowed to leave.

But if she could bring it down, she'd be free to open a bar on a beach somewhere.

I don't necessarily think DeWitt is the inside person, but I can see how she might be.

But maybe she's in cahoots with them? They bring it down, she doesn't get fingered and she can go buy the bar.

Yep. I think she may be the inside person based on that, but I think she's working with someone else (maybe Alpha) who is trying to find more about the larger organization to do more than just bring down the Dollhouse.
