I think that is why I am anti- spoil;er. It is often hard to surprise me.. so being shocked, not just surprised is an amazing feeling.

Well I mean if you work backwards if Victor is now all scarred up, how can he fulfill the rest of his contract? It would make sense to give him a non-Doll job. I wouldn't be surprised to see him as Sierra's handler. Anyway, it makes sense that the same thing happened to the Doc.

Really kinky clients?

I hadn't thought of that, but it's a good idea. I'd miss seeing him do a completely different person every week, though.

(How great was Ballard seeing "Lubov" in the Dollhouse? Heh.)

I wish I hadn't been spoiled for that reveal. The way it started out I thought maybe it had been a foiler, but there you go. AT was plenty scary, though. I just wish I'd been startled by it.

Yeah, me too. Although, it says a lot that I'm annoyed with myself now for listening to spoilers when I thought I didn't give a tiny rat's ass about this show. It got me!

I'm gonna buck the trend and say I did not enjoy AT in this at all. His buffoonery in the first part practically ruined the ep for me (and it was an important ep). When the reveal happened, I thought, "Huh. That's interesting." But him with Echo? Ick! Also, next week's looks all Natural Born Killers, which I'm so not a fan of. I think I'd have enjoyed it a hell of a lot more with a different actor in the Alpha role. Sorry AT.

Sadly, the buffoonery was of a sort I've encountered in real life, so I can't fault AT for that. *Casts weary eyes up towards his landlord upstairs.*

IOW, I loved him in the role. Just wish I hadn't been spoiled.

Enver Gjokaj is FUCKING AMAZING.

I asked Jane E. about him, and she said all the writers are totally blown away and thrilled by his range. She also said he was a really nice guy--one of those actors who always shows up to do the work and is nice and unassuming and great to everyone.

That's good to hear! I was keeping an eye on him earlier because a friend of mine had an acting class with him back in the day. So that's neat.

In other news, this PSA is pretty funny.

Maybe, if the distinctiveness of the scars and how they'd make him memorable/identifiable factors in. I doubt he'd necessarily be precluded from romantic assignments once he heals up the way female dolls might be, though. Lots of scarred pirates and soldiers on the covers of paperback romances.

I was cracking up at Paul's reaction to finding out that Lubov was a doll, too. If Paul makes it out in one piece, I forsee him eying Cool FBI Lady suspiciously.

I'm probably a little slow, but this discussion helped me realize that the face slashing can be seen as an attack on the "doll" status: if they're no longer beautiful, they can't be dolls.
