P-C, I'm with you actually. It seemed a bit of a mess script-wise, but directed well.
Yeah, I had no problems with the direction; I liked the jerky edits with Alpha's different personalities and the performances. I expounded on some of my issues with the script here.
I wondered, on seeing November, if Ballard had asked for Echo to be let go and been told "no". (But mostly, Echo doesn't get to leave in case the show gets renewed...)
If Ballard joins the Dollhouse, does he give up on the whole 'saving Caroline' thing, or will he continue to do so in more, well, creative ways?

Ooh yes. Creepy.
Yeah his saving {Mellie was trying to make up for rape. But in the event the show is renewed, I'll bet the deal has two parts where they let Caroline go if he stops Alpha.
When he saves Caroline, he will be killing the Dollhouse. h can't kill the dollhouse yet. It is bigger than he thought.
And Amy Acker's a dude. Who'd have thunk it?
Does that make me gay? (not that there is anything wrong with that)
I'm wondering how the hell they program an imprint to not notice that its body has changed genders.
Or how they can recognize themselves in another body. In Alpha's bunker, with old/new versions of same person, I was a tiny confused.

Oh this! Very much. Really hightened the creepiness. Excellently played by AT. And who was the editor? That person had a handful this week, and did an AWESOME job!
"You saved me." Aww.
Ya, I did the same "aww". He finally saved Caroline, just not how he wanted to.
So here is a question. The show started out as a way to show off ED, right? I think most of us are in agreement, that the other actors are shining far more than she is. Would the show survive with her just as an Exec Producer? Would she want to? Would Fox can her, but keep the show?

My problem was that he wasn't glitching at

last week. Why now?

Adrenaline? Hormones from seeing both Alpha & Whiskey? Wasn't ready to be revealed yet? We saw quirkiness, maybe he was just holding it in better.
Yeah, that's my best guess.

Sanders V2.0 is not a Margeret like situation where it is the same person in the old body. It is a new person based on the old Sanders, with I presume the main stuff being preserved medical skills plus loyalty to the Dollhouse. Probably both major personality similarities and differences.

This WAS Margaret like - the same person in a new body. For Caroline subjectively this was only a few minutes after being recorded. She figured out quickly it was not her body, and recognized herself from having looked at herself in the mirror the last time she brushed her teeth, or the last time she used the women's room.
