They're not always, Jon, as I understood the pilot.
Is this something that's been aired? Or the thing that is just a script that's been passed around.
I am starting to feel pretty resentful that apparently I should read something that wasn't even on the air in order to make sense of what has been shown. Not on. (not in particular to this point, but I've seen that around a lot, referring to that script as a way to clear things up, and I think that shows some poor regrouping by Fox and the Dollhouse team)
I meant from the aired pilot, not the unaired one. There was this problem with Firefly, like - people didn't even know why the ship was called Serenity at first, Reavers were introduced without having seen their ships or having a good description as to what they were etc.

I think that the woman who'd been molested by the guy was
part
of Echo's composite identity, but not all of it. I imagine there probably was someone pretty Taffy-esque that they stole from. Like they used "Taffy" as the base personality and then added to it for the specific imprint.

For the record, a lot of what was in the unaired script has now been aired. For instance, that scene about the Actives grouping.
Nora, they stated in at least two episodes, including this last one that they composite personalities. The hostage negotiator was a chimera, as was Taffy, IIRC.

(Sorry, it's hot in my office and I have some general pigheaded frustrations with the show which may be leaking out inappropriately)

Dude, I took Joss's letter about Captivity the other day and replaced 'Captivity' with 'Dollhouse'. I may be having the same problem.

But I think Kevin was saying that they're not always composites, and I don't think we've been told that there are imprints that are 100% one person.

My inferrence from the backup singer one was that she was one person with a subliminal imperative.
I didn't watch the last episode, and reading the posts hasn't made me feel bad about that.
I'm curious--of the episodes aired to date, which is your favourite? Or least-hated, if you're still watching for testing purposes only?
