"Fuck Western ideologically-motivated gender identification!" Sulu gasped, and came.

"We're all stories, in the end. Just make it a good one, eh?"
Thanks, Fay! (Looks like he's good in that. But it doesn't appear to have aliens, time travel, spaceships or vampires in it, so I'm not likely to love it. Well, unless I missed something in the background, or another episode features the famous late eighteenth-century attempted invasion of Bristol by Martians.)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!
I think we're meant to be moving towards sympathising with her. This is going to take some hardcore writing to effect, of course. She doesn't seem to have a single sympathetic character trait at the moment.
Yeah, I definitely think she's being written more sympathetically, especially with the line about the Dollhouse helping Rossum's "important research." We're meant to believe she really does have the best intentions.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
After Epitaph 1, I'm not sure how much we really can sympathize though.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.
It got the lowest ratings to date. Hopefully the next round of advertising will have, I don't know, the right date and time on them.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.
Biceps and a conscience can be a powerful combo.
...that actually summarises a rather wide swathe of the fictional men I go thunk over.

ADs natural voice is still weird to me.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider
I was really engaged and entertained by ED this week!
The husbands story was not as engaging as it could have been since it was telegraphed, or at least easily apparent, where his story would end, and I was just waiting for them to get there and for the other shoe to drop elsewhere in other storylines.
Kind of annoyed at the losing-a-baby theme (but this is mostly my annoyance at all shows that work out character issues through the plot, usually in a ham-handed fashion), except that together there was the subtle difference in characters. One so debilitated by grief that they gave up their mind and body for five years and now a weird Stepford wife, and the other, while not quite as wrecked in that particular instance, but far greater in the sum of all the other lives known and lost, unwilling to trade the grief for emptiness.
So, Topher is a genius who doesn't think through his actions. But for Adelle to have allowed the "glandular" enhancement without testing? Sending a brand new discovery out on a mission with no idea of the side effects? The ugly hair has contaminated her brain.

ADs natural voice is still weird to me.
This is where I again say that AD reminds me of Stephen Colbert, both looks and voice. THAT'S who AD's natural voice reminds me of (and I think there is a physical resemblance).
