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.

I liked the jerky edits with Alpha's different personalities and the performances

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 all 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.

stress?

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.

If they can make it so that they don't recognize other changes, why not gender?

Crazy leaking out during quick takes is classic Objects in Space, eh?

I guess I was going by the notion that Saunders was still essentially whole inside Whiskey's brain. I can see imprints being programmed not to notice that unfamiliar facial features are looking back at them for the few days an assignment takes, but we haven't seen any cross-gender imprint/active setups before. And given the long-term nature of Whiskey's current assignment it would seem like a LOT of personal experience would have to be completely rewritten.

It's very interesting that Echo/Omega was quite functional and apparently sane despite having 38 different imprints in conjunction. Because I'd assume that situation would result in an incoherent mess a la Alpha even without pre-existing craziness in the physical brain. Could he have been right about what she's becoming, even ifmistaken about himself?
