"Cry havoc and let slip the boobs of war!" -- Miracleman

It's interesting that Victor asked if he was wrong. I didn't know that dolls could recognize the concept.

I am the fly who dreams of the spider

but you totally want him for a friend.

For sure! That's one dude who would definitely help me hide the body. Point in case. Just the fact that he knows how to do it, and does it without qualms, but then actually makes Topher do it... chilling!

I missed a bit where it was decided that the solution was to take Priya back to the Dollhouse, and that she agreed to this, rather than just set her free. Or did I? I mean, I was getting all antsy that omg Dichen was about to be gone and how could there be awesome Sierra/Victor stories if she was?! Was it her guilt over murdering VV?

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Yeah, I don't they explained very well why Sierra had to return. Why couldn't they let Priya go?

Maybe he watches Breaking Bad?

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Yeah, I don't they explained very well why Sierra had to return. Why couldn't they let Priya go?

It would pretty much ruin the story that they were telling to Adelle et al, and if she turned up any of memfault-on-the-company-Keith-Carradine-was-saying's radar on her own, all their covers' would be blown. Plus, I think Priya didn't want to remember.

Also, damn, this is finally the show I was hoping for. Oh well - hopefully the rest will be on DVD eventually, even if Fox reneges on airing them.

Never fall in love with somebody you actually love.

The DVD is already on the sched for this season.

How amazing is Dichen in this episode? And Fran? And Olivia?

Well, it does make me wonder. Does Eliza know it's not her show anymore?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I think Priya was finally broken in a way the Dollhouse could help with.

I gotta plug my man Enver. I hope he goes on to great things when this is done. I loved his art dealer, and I always like his blank slate. I thought it was great. Eliza can root around and put things in motion, that's fine. But I prefer emotional payoffs from Tahmoh, Harry, Amy, or Enver. They do those better.

I think that she probably ended up back at the Dollhouse due to shock and "hey, these people just helped me cover up that I killed this guy, I should do what they tell me". the idea now is that she was innocent before, but now she's guilty of something that the Dollhouse can hold over her.
